Ephesians 2

King James Version KJV

1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 And you, {although you were dead} in your trespasses and sins,

2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit now working in the sons of disobedience,

3 among whom also we all formerly lived in the desires of our flesh, doing the will of the flesh and of the mind, and we were children of wrath by nature, as also the rest of [them] were.

4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love [with] which he loved us,

5 and we being dead in trespasses, he made [us] alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),

6 and raised [us] together and seated [us] together in the heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus,

7 in order that he might show in the coming ages the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness upon us in Christ Jesus.

8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and this [is] not from yourselves, [it is] the gift of God;

9 [it is] not from works, so that no one can boast.

10 For we are his creation, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, so that we may walk in them.

11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in [the] flesh, the so-called uncircumcision by the so-called circumcision in [the] flesh, made by hands,

12 that you were at that time apart from Christ, alienated from the citizenship of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, not having hope, and without God in the world.

13 But now in Christ Jesus you, the ones who once were far away, have become near by the blood of Christ.

14 For he himself is our peace, who made both one and broke down the dividing wall of the partition, the enmity, in his flesh,

15 invalidating the law of commandments in ordinances, in order that he might create the two in himself into one new man, [thus] making peace,

16 and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, killing the enmity in himself.

17 And coming, he proclaimed the good news of peace to you who were far away and peace to the ones who were near,

18 because through him [we] both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

19 Consequently, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens of the saints and members of the household of God,

20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,

21 in whom the whole building, joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

22 in whom you also are built up together into a dwelling place of God in [the] Spirit.
