Ephesians 1:15-23

Common English Bible CEB

15 Since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God's people, this is the reason that

16 I don't stop giving thanks to God for you when I remember you in my prayers.

17 I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, will give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation that makes God known to you.

18 I pray that the eyes of your heart will have enough light to see what is the hope of God's call, what is the richness of God's glorious inheritance among believers,

19 and what is the overwhelming greatness of God's power that is working among us believers. This power is conferred by the energy of God's powerful strength.

20 God's power was at work in Christ when God raised him from the dead and sat him at God's right side in the heavens,

21 far above every ruler and authority and power and angelic power, any power that might be named not only now but in the future.

22 God put everything under Christ's feet and made him head of everything in the church,

23 which is his body. His body, the church, is the fullness of Christ, who fills everything in every way.

New International Version NIV

15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people,

16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.

17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.

18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,

19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength

20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,

21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.

22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church,

23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
