Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB
New International Version NIV
15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and charity unto all the saints,
15
For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people,
16 cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
16
I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
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 illuminating the eyes of your understanding, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling and what <em>are</em> the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints
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 what <em>is</em> the exceeding greatness of his power in us who believe, by the operation of the power of his strength,
19
and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength
20 which operated in the Christ, raising him from the dead and setting <em>him</em> at his own right hand in the heavenly <em>places</em>,
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 principality and power and might and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come,
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 has put all <em>things</em> under his feet and gave him <em>to be</em> the head over all <em>things</em> to the <em>congregation</em> {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones},
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, and he is the fullness of her: who fills all things in everyone.
23
which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
