If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
3 quoniam secundum revelationem notum mihi factum est sacramentum sicut supra scripsi in brevi

How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,

4
Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
9 et inluminare omnes quae sit dispensatio sacramenti absconditi a saeculis in Deo qui omnia creavit
9
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
10 ut innotescat principibus et potestatibus in caelestibus per ecclesiam multiformis sapientia Dei
10
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
11 secundum praefinitionem saeculorum quam fecit in Christo Iesu Domino nostro

18 ut possitis conprehendere cum omnibus sanctis quae sit latitudo et longitudo et sublimitas et profundum
18
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

19
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
20 ei autem qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter quam petimus aut intellegimus secundum virtutem quae operatur in nobis
20
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
