| Ephesians 2:1 | To you Gentiles also, who were dead through your offences and sins, | And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; | And you, when you were dead in your offences, and sins, |
| Ephesians 2:2 | which were once habitual to you while you walked in the ways of this world and obeyed the Prince of the powers of the air, the spirits that are now at work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience to you God has given Life. | 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: | Wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of this air, of the spirit that now worketh on the children of unbelief: |
| Ephesians 2:3 | Among them all of us also formerly passed our lives, governed by the inclinations of our lower natures, indulging the cravings of those natures and of our own thoughts, and were in our original state deserving of anger like all others. | 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. | In which also we all conversed in time past, in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the will of the flesh and of our thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest: |
| Ephesians 2:4 | But God, being rich in mercy, because of the intense love which He bestowed on us, | But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, | But God, (who is rich in mercy,) for his exceeding charity wherewith he loved us, |
| Ephesians 2:5 | caused us, dead though we were through our offences, to live with Christ it is by grace that you have been saved | Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) | Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together in Christ, (by whose grace you are saved,) |
| Ephesians 2:6 | raised us with Him from the dead, and enthroned us with Him in the heavenly realms as being in Christ Jesus, | And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: | And hath raised us up together, and hath made us sit together in the heavenly places, through Christ Jesus. |
| Ephesians 2:7 | in order that, by His goodness to us in Christ Jesus, He might display in the Ages to come the transcendent riches of His grace. | That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. | That he might shew in the ages to come the abundant riches of his grace, in his bounty towards us in Christ Jesus. |
| Ephesians 2:8 | For it is by grace that you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves. It is God's gift, and is not on the ground of merit | For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: | For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God; |
| Ephesians 2:9 | so that it may be impossible for any one to boast. | Not of works, lest any man should boast. | Not of works, that no man may glory. |
| Ephesians 2:10 | For we are God's own handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works which He has pre-destined us to practise. | For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. | For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus in good works, which God hath prepared that we should walk in them. |
| Ephesians 2:11 | Therefore, do not forget that formerly you were Gentiles as to your bodily condition. You were called the Uncircumcision by those who style themselves the Circumcised their circumcision being one which the knife has effected. | 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; | For which cause be mindful that you, being heretofore Gentiles in the flesh, who are called uncircumcision by that which is called circumcision in the flesh, made by hands; |
| Ephesians 2:12 | At that time you were living apart from Christ, estranged from the Commonwealth of Israel, with no share by birth in the Covenants which are based on the Promises, and you had no hope and no God, in all the world. | 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: | That you were at that time without Christ, being aliens from the conversation of Israel, and strangers to the testament, having no hope of the promise, and without God in this world. |
| Ephesians 2:13 | But now in Christ Jesus you who once were so far away have been brought near through the death of Christ. | But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. | But now in Christ Jesus, you, who some time were afar off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ. |
| Ephesians 2:14 | 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, | 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, who hath made both one, and breaking down the middle wall of partition, the enmities in his flesh: |
| Ephesians 2:15 | by setting aside the Law with its commandments, expressed, as they were, in definite decrees. His design was to unite the two sections of humanity in Himself so as to form one new man, | 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; | Making void the law of commandments contained in decrees; that he might make the two in himself into one new man, making peace; |
| Ephesians 2:16 | thus effecting peace, and to reconcile Jews and Gentiles in one body to God, by means of His cross slaying by it their mutual enmity. | And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: | And might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, killing the enmities in himself. |
| Ephesians 2:17 | So He came and proclaimed good news of peace to you who were so far away, and peace to those who were near; | And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. | And coming, he preached peace to you that were afar off, and peace to them that were nigh. |
| Ephesians 2:18 | because it is through Him that Jews and Gentiles alike have access through one Spirit to the Father. | For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. | For by him we have access both in one Spirit to the Father. |
| Ephesians 2:19 | You are therefore no longer mere foreigners or persons excluded from civil rights. On the contrary you share citizenship with God's people and are members of His family. | Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; | Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners; but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and the domestics of God, |
| Ephesians 2:20 | You are a building which has been reared on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, the cornerstone being Christ Jesus Himself, | And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; | Built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone: |
| Ephesians 2:21 | in union with whom the whole fabric, fitted and closely joined together, is growing so as to form a holy sanctuary in the Lord; | In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: | In whom all the building, being framed together, groweth up into an holy temple in the Lord. |
| Ephesians 2:22 | in whom you also are being built up together to become a fixed abode for God through the Spirit. | In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. | In whom you also are built together into an habitation of God in the Spirit. |
