American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
to the end that we should be unto the praise of his glory, we who {Or, have}had before hoped in Christ:
in whom also we were made a heritage, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his will;
in whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth, the {Or, good tidings. See marginal note on Matthew 4:23.}gospel of your salvation,— in whom, having also believed, ye were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
which is an earnest of our inheritance, unto the redemption of God's own possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear branded on my body the marks of Jesus.
And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in whom ye were sealed unto the day of redemption.
{Or, seeing that he both sealed us}who also sealed us, and gave us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
