| Ephesians 1:4 | according as he has chosen us in him before [the] world's foundation, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love; | even as, in His love, He chose us as His own in Christ before the creation of the world, that we might be holy and without blemish in His presence. | Even as he made selection of us in him from the first, so that we might be holy and free from all evil before him in love: |
| Ephesians 1:5 | having marked us out beforehand for adoption through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, | For He pre-destined us to be adopted by Himself as sons through Jesus Christ such being His gracious will and pleasure | As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose, |

| Ephesians 1:7 | in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of offences, according to the riches of his grace; | It is in Him, and through the shedding of His blood, that we have our deliverance the forgiveness of our offences so abundant was God's grace, | In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace, |
| Ephesians 1:8 | which he has caused to abound towards us in all wisdom and intelligence, | the grace which He, the possessor of all wisdom and understanding, lavished upon us, | Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care; |
| Ephesians 1:9 | having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself | when He made known to us the secret of His will. And this is in harmony with God's merciful purpose | Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands |
| Ephesians 1:10 | for [the] administration of the fulness of times; to head up all things in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth; in him, | for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in Heaven and things on earth, to find their one Head in Him. | The ordering of the times when they are complete, so that all things might come to a head in Christ, the things in heaven and the things on the earth; in him, I say, |
| Ephesians 1:11 | in whom we have also obtained an inheritance, being marked out beforehand according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his own will, | In Him we Jews have been made heirs, having been chosen beforehand in accordance with the intention of Him whose might carries out in everything the design of His own will, | In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs; |

| Ephesians 1:14 | who is [the] earnest of our inheritance to the redemption of the acquired possession to [the] praise of his glory. | that Spirit being a pledge and foretaste of our inheritance, in anticipation of its full redemption the inheritance which He has purchased to be specially His for the extolling of His glory. | Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory. |
| Ephesians 1:15 | Wherefore *I* also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which [is] in you, and the love which [ye have] towards all the saints, | For this reason I too, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which prevails among you, and of your love for all God's people, | For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints, |

| Ephesians 1:19 | and what the surpassing greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to the working of the might of his strength, | and what the transcendent greatness of His power in us believers as seen in the working of His infinite might | And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power, |
| Ephesians 1:20 | [in] which he wrought in the Christ [in] raising him from among [the] dead, and he set him down at his right hand in the heavenlies, | when He displayed it in Christ by raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His own right hand in the heavenly realms, | By which he made Christ come back from the dead, and gave him a place at his right hand in heaven, |
