14 So I bow in prayer before the Father

15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth gets its true name.
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.
16 I ask the Father in his great glory to give you the power to be strong inwardly through his Spirit.

17 I pray that Christ will live in your hearts by faith and that your life will be strong in love and be built on love.
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,
18 And I pray that you and all God's holy people will have the power to understand the greatness of Christ's love -- how wide and how long and how high and how deep that love is.
18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,
19 Christ's love is greater than anyone can ever know, but I pray that you will be able to know that love. Then you can be filled with the fullness of God.
19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
20 With God's power working in us, God can do much, much more than anything we can ask or imagine.
20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
21 To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus for all time, forever and ever. Amen.
21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
