PaulG3972, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, to the saintsG40 which areG5607 atG1722 EphesusG2181, andG2532 to the faithfulG4103 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
GraceG5485 be to youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 from the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
BlessedG2128 be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 hath blessedG2127 usG2248 withG1722 allG3956 spiritualG4152 blessingsG2129 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places inG1722 ChristG5547: {places: or, things}
According asG2531 he hath chosenG1586 usG2248 inG1722 himG846 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, that weG2248 should beG1511 holyG40 andG2532 without blameG299 beforeG2714 himG846 inG1722 loveG26:
Having predestinatedG4309 usG2248 untoG1519 the adoption of childrenG5206 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 himselfG846, accordingG2596 to the good pleasureG2107 of hisG846 willG2307,
ToG1519 the praiseG1868 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 graceG5485, whereinG1722+G3739 he hath madeG5487 usG2248 acceptedG5487 inG1722 the belovedG25.
InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192 redemptionG629 throughG1223 hisG846 bloodG129, the forgivenessG859 of sinsG3900, accordingG2596 to the richesG4149 of hisG846 graceG5485;
WhereinG3739 he hath aboundedG4052 towardG1519 usG2248 inG1722 allG3956 wisdomG4678 andG2532 prudenceG5428;
Having made knownG1107 unto usG2254 the mysteryG3466 of hisG846 willG2307, according toG2596 hisG846 good pleasureG2107 whichG3739 he hath purposedG4388 inG1722 himselfG846:
That inG1519 the dispensationG3622 of the fulnessG4138 of timesG2540 he might gather together in oneG346 all thingsG3956 inG1722 ChristG5547, bothG5037 whichG3588 are inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 whichG3588 are onG1909 earthG1093; even inG1722 himG846: {heaven: Gr. the heavens}
InG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we have obtained an inheritanceG2820, being predestinatedG4309 according toG2596 the purposeG4286 of him who workethG1754 all thingsG3956 afterG2596 the counselG1012 of his ownG846 willG2307:
ThatG1519 weG2248 should beG1511 toG1519 the praiseG1868 of hisG846 gloryG1391, whoG3588 first trustedG4276 inG1722 ChristG5547. {trusted: or, hoped}
InG1722 whomG3739 yeG5210 alsoG2532 trusted, after that ye heardG191 the wordG3056 of truthG225, the gospelG2098 of yourG5216 salvationG4991: inG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 after that ye believedG4100, ye were sealed withG4972 that holyG40 SpiritG4151 of promiseG1860,
WhichG3739 isG2076 the earnestG728 of ourG2257 inheritanceG2817 untilG1519 the redemptionG629 of the purchased possessionG4047, untoG1519 the praiseG1868 of hisG846 gloryG1391.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 I alsoG2504, after I heardG191 ofG2596 yourG5209 faithG4102 inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 loveG26 untoG1519 allG3956 the saintsG40,
CeaseG3973 notG3756 to give thanksG2168 forG5228 youG5216, makingG4160 mentionG3417 of youG5216 inG1909 myG3450 prayersG4335;
ThatG2443 the GodG2316 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the FatherG3962 of gloryG1391, may giveG1325 unto youG5213 the spiritG4151 of wisdomG4678 andG2532 revelationG602 inG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of himG846: {in…: or, for the acknowledgement}
The eyesG3788 of yourG5216 understandingG1271 being enlightenedG5461; thatG1519 yeG5209 may knowG1492 whatG5101 isG2076 the hopeG1680 of hisG846 callingG2821, andG2532 whatG5101 the richesG4149 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the saintsG40,
AndG2532 whatG5101 is the exceedingG5235 greatnessG3174 of hisG846 powerG1411 toG1519 us-wardG2248 whoG3588 believeG4100, according toG2596 the workingG1753 of hisG846 mightyG2479 powerG2904, {his mighty power: Gr. the might of his power}
WhichG3739 he wroughtG1754 inG1722 ChristG5547, when he raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 setG2523 him atG1722 his ownG846 right handG1188 inG1722 the heavenlyG2032 places,
Far aboveG5231 allG3956 principalityG746, andG2532 powerG1849, andG2532 mightG1411, andG2532 dominionG2963, andG2532 everyG3956 nameG3686 that is namedG3687, notG3756 onlyG3440 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG165, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 that which is to comeG3195:
AndG2532 hath putG5293 allG3956 things underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 to be the headG2776 overG5228 allG3956 things to the churchG1577,
WhichG3748 isG2076 hisG846 bodyG4983, the fulnessG4138 of him that fillethG4137 allG3956 inG1722 allG3956.

ForG1063 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of bondageG1397 againG3825 toG1519 fearG5401; butG235 ye have receivedG2983 the SpiritG4151 of adoptionG5206, wherebyG1722+G3739 we cryG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962.
The SpiritG4151 itselfG846 beareth witnessG4828 with ourG2257 spiritG4151, thatG3754 we areG2070 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316:
AndG1161 ifG1487 childrenG5043, thenG2532 heirsG2818; heirsG2818 of GodG3303+G2316, andG1161 joint-heirsG4789 with ChristG5547; if so beG1512 that we suffer withG4841 him, thatG2443 we may beG4888 alsoG2532 glorified togetherG4888.
AndG2532 grieveG3076 notG3361 the holyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, wherebyG1722+G3739 ye are sealedG4972 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
ToG1519 the praiseG1868 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 graceG5485, whereinG1722+G3739 he hath madeG5487 usG2248 acceptedG5487 inG1722 the belovedG25.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 they, butG235 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532, which haveG2192 the firstfruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 weG2249 ourselvesG846 groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, waitingG553 for the adoptionG5206, to wit, the redemptionG629 of ourG2257 bodyG4983.
And in all the landH776 of your possessionH272 ye shall grantH5414 a redemptionH1353 for the landH776.
If thy brotherH251 be waxen poorH4134, and hath soldH4376 away some of his possessionH272, and if any of his kinH7138 comeH935 to redeemH1350 it, then shall he redeemH1350 that which his brotherH251 soldH4465.
And if the manH376 have none to redeemH1350 it, and himselfH3027 be ableH1767+H5381 to redeemH4672+H1353 it; {himself…: Heb. his hand hath attained and found sufficiency}
Then let him countH2803 the yearsH8141 of the saleH4465 thereof, and restoreH7725 the overplusH5736 unto the manH376 to whom he soldH4376 it; that he may returnH7725 unto his possessionH272.
But if heH3027 be not ableH1767 to restoreH4672+H7725 it to him, then that which is soldH4465 shall remain in the handH3027 of him that hath boughtH7069 it until the yearH8141 of jubileH3104: and in the jubileH3104 it shall go outH3318, and he shall returnH7725 unto his possessionH272.
And if a manH376 sellH4376 a dwellingH4186 houseH1004 in a walledH2346 cityH5892, then he may redeemH1353 it within a wholeH8552 yearH8141 after it is soldH4465; within a full yearH3117 may he redeemH1353 it.
And if it be not redeemedH1350 within the spaceH4390 of a fullH8549 yearH8141, then the houseH1004 that is in the walledH2346 cityH5892 shall be establishedH6965 for everH6783 to him that boughtH7069 it throughout his generationsH1755: it shall not go outH3318 in the jubileH3104.
But the housesH1004 of the villagesH2691 which have no wallH2346 round aboutH5439 them shall be countedH2803 as the fieldsH7704 of the countryH776: they may be redeemedH1353, and they shall go outH3318 in the jubileH3104. {they may…: Heb. redemption belongeth unto it}
Notwithstanding the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881, and the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 of their possessionH272, may the LevitesH3881 redeemH1353 at any timeH5769.
And if a man purchaseH1350 of the LevitesH3881, then the houseH1004 that was soldH4465, and the cityH5892 of his possessionH272, shall go outH3318 in the year of jubileH3104: for the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881 are their possessionH272 amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. {a man…: or, one of the Levites redeem them}
But the fieldH7704 of the suburbsH4054 of their citiesH5892 may not be soldH4376; for it is their perpetualH5769 possessionH272.
ThatG1519 weG2248 should beG1511 toG1519 the praiseG1868 of hisG846 gloryG1391, whoG3588 first trustedG4276 inG1722 ChristG5547. {trusted: or, hoped}
WhoG3588 hathG4972 alsoG2532 sealedG4972 usG2248, andG2532 givenG1325 the earnestG728 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588.
RememberH2142 thy congregationH5712, which thou hast purchasedH7069 of oldH6924; the rodH7626 of thine inheritanceH5159, which thou hast redeemedH1350; this mountH2022 ZionH6726, wherein thou hast dweltH7931. {rod: or, tribe}
NowG1161 he that hath wroughtG2716 usG2248 forG1519 the selfsame thingG846+G5124 is GodG2316, whoG3588 alsoG2532 hath givenG1325 unto usG2254 the earnestG728 of the SpiritG4151.
And he broughtH935 them to the borderH1366 of his sanctuaryH6944, even to this mountainH2022, which his right handH3225 had purchasedH7069.
AndG1161 becauseG3754 ye areG2075 sonsG5207, GodG2316 hath sent forthG1821 the SpiritG4151 of hisG846 SonG5207 intoG1519 yourG5216 heartsG2588, cryingG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962.
Behold, HanameelH2601 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967 thine uncleH1730 shall comeH935 unto thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 thee my fieldH7704 that is in AnathothH6068: for the rightH4941 of redemptionH1353 is thine to buyH7069 it.
So HanameelH2601 mine uncle'sH1730 sonH1121 cameH935 to me in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and saidH559 unto me, BuyH7069 my fieldH7704, I pray thee, that is in AnathothH6068, which is in the countryH776 of BenjaminH1144: for the rightH4941 of inheritanceH3425 is thine, and the redemptionH1353 is thine; buyH7069 it for thyself. Then I knewH3045 that this was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
AndG1161 when these thingsG5130 beginG756 to come to passG1096, then look upG352, andG2532 lift upG1869 yourG5216 headsG2776; forG1360 yourG5216 redemptionG629 draweth nighG1448.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 they, butG235 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532, which haveG2192 the firstfruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 weG2249 ourselvesG846 groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, waitingG553 for the adoptionG5206, to wit, the redemptionG629 of ourG2257 bodyG4983.
ButG1161 yeG5210 are a chosenG1588 generationG1085, a royalG934 priesthoodG2406, an holyG40 nationG1484, a peculiarG1519+G4047 peopleG2992; thatG3704 ye should shew forthG1804 the praisesG703 of him who hath calledG2564 youG5209 out ofG1537 darknessG4655 intoG1519 hisG846 marvellousG2298 lightG5457: {peculiar: or, purchased} {praises: or, virtues}
