| Ephesians 2:13 | But now in Christ Jesus, you, who some time were afar off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ. | But now, in Christ Jesus, ye, who formerly were far off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ. | But now in Christ Jesus you who once were so far away have been brought near through the death of Christ. |
| Ephesians 2:14 | For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and breaking down the middle wall of partition, the enmities in his flesh: | For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; | For He is our peace He who has made Jews and Gentiles one, and in His own human nature has broken down the hostile dividing wall, |
