AndG2532 youG5209 hath he quickened, who wereG5607 deadG3498 in trespassesG3900 andG2532 sinsG266;
WhereinG1722+G3739 in time pastG4218 ye walkedG4043 according toG2596 the courseG165 of thisG5127 worldG2889, according toG2596 the princeG758 of the powerG1849 of the airG109, the spiritG4151 that nowG3568 workethG1754 inG1722 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543:
AmongG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 weG2249 allG3956 had our conversationG390 in times pastG4218 inG1722 the lustsG1939 of ourG2257 fleshG4561, fulfillingG4160 the desiresG2307 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 of the mindG1271; andG2532 wereG2258 by natureG5449 the childrenG5043 of wrathG3709, evenG2532 asG5613 othersG3062. {desires: Gr. wills}
ButG1161 GodG2316, who isG5607 richG4145 inG1722 mercyG1656, forG1223 hisG846 greatG4183 loveG26 wherewithG3739 he lovedG25 usG2248,
EvenG2532 when weG2248 wereG5607 deadG3498 in sinsG3900, hath quickened us together withG4806 ChristG5547, (by graceG5485 ye areG2075 savedG4982;) {by…: or, by whose grace}
AndG2532 hath raised us up togetherG4891, andG2532 made us sit togetherG4776 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
ThatG2443 inG1722 the agesG165 to comeG1904 he might shewG1731 the exceedingG5235 richesG4149 of hisG846 graceG5485 inG1722 his kindnessG5544 towardG1909 usG2248 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
ForG1063 by graceG5485 are yeG2075 savedG4982 throughG1223 faithG4102; andG2532 thatG5124 notG3756 ofG1537 yourselvesG5216: it is the giftG1435 of GodG2316:
NotG3756 ofG1537 worksG2041, lestG3363 any manG5100 should boastG2744.
ForG1063 we areG2070 hisG846 workmanshipG4161, createdG2936 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 untoG1909 goodG18 worksG2041, whichG3739 GodG2316 hath before ordainedG4282 thatG2443 we should walkG4043 inG1722 themG846. {ordained: or, prepared}
WhereforeG1352 rememberG3421, thatG3754 yeG5210 being in time pastG4218 GentilesG1484 inG1722 the fleshG4561, whoG3588 are calledG3004 UncircumcisionG203 byG5259 that whichG3588 is calledG3004 the CircumcisionG4061 inG1722 the fleshG4561 made by handsG5499;
ThatG3754 atG1722 thatG1565 timeG2540 ye wereG2258 withoutG5565 ChristG5547, being aliensG526 from the commonwealthG4174 of IsraelG2474, andG2532 strangersG3581 from the covenantsG1242 of promiseG1860, havingG2192 noG3361 hopeG1680, andG2532 without GodG112 inG1722 the worldG2889:
ButG1161 nowG3570 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 yeG5210 whoG3588 sometimesG4218 wereG5607 far offG3112 are madeG1096 nighG1451 byG1722 the bloodG129 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 heG846 isG2076 ourG2257 peaceG1515, whoG3588 hath madeG4160 bothG297 oneG1520, andG2532 hath broken downG3089 the middle wallG3320 of partitionG5418 between us;
Having abolishedG2673 inG1722 hisG846 fleshG4561 the enmityG2189, even the lawG3551 of commandmentsG1785 contained inG1722 ordinancesG1378; for toG2443 makeG2936 inG1722 himselfG1438 of twainG1417 oneG1519+G1520 newG2537 manG444, so makingG4160 peaceG1515;
AndG2532 that he might reconcileG604 bothG297 unto GodG2316 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983 byG1223 the crossG4716, having slainG615 the enmityG2189 therebyG1722+G846: {thereby: or, in himself}
AndG2532 cameG2064 and preachedG2097 peaceG1515 to youG5213 whichG3588 were afar offG3112, andG2532 to them that were nighG1451.
ForG3754 throughG1223 himG846 weG2192 bothG297 haveG2192 accessG4318 byG1722 oneG1520 SpiritG4151 untoG4314 the FatherG3962.
NowG3767 thereforeG686 ye areG2075 no moreG3765 strangersG3581 andG2532 foreignersG3941, butG235 fellowcitizensG4847 with the saintsG40, andG2532 of the householdG3609 of GodG2316;
And are builtG2026 uponG1909 the foundationG2310 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846 beingG5607 the chief cornerG204 stone;
InG1722 whomG3739 allG3956 the buildingG3619 fitly framed togetherG4883 growethG837 untoG1519 an holyG40 templeG3485 inG1722 the LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 yeG5210 alsoG2532 are builded togetherG4925 forG1519 an habitationG2732 of GodG2316 throughG1722 the SpiritG4151.

That the GentilesG1484 should beG1511 fellowheirsG4789, andG2532 of the same bodyG4954, andG2532 partakersG4830 of hisG846 promiseG1860 inG1722 ChristG5547 byG1223 the gospelG2098:
OfG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 familyG3965 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1909+G1093 is namedG3687,
ForG1063 ye areG2075 allG3956 the childrenG5207 of GodG2316 byG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
ForG1063 as many of you asG3745 have been baptizedG907 intoG1519 ChristG5547 have put onG1746 ChristG5547.
There isG1762 neitherG3756 JewG2453 norG3761 GreekG1672, there isG1762 neitherG3756 bondG1401 norG3761 freeG1658, there isG1762 neitherG3756 maleG730 norG2532 femaleG2338: forG1063 yeG5210 areG2075 allG3956 oneG1520 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
It is enoughG713 for the discipleG3101 thatG2443 he beG1096 asG5613 hisG846 masterG1320, andG2532 the servantG1401 asG5613 hisG846 lordG2962. IfG1487 they have calledG2564 the master of the houseG3617 BeelzebubG954, how muchG4214 moreG3123 shall they call them of hisG846 householdG3615? {Beelzebub: Gr. Beelzebul}
ButG1161 JerusalemG2419 which is aboveG507 isG2076 freeG1658, whichG3748 isG2076 the motherG3384 of usG2257 allG3956.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, RejoiceG2165, thou barrenG4723 that bearestG5088 notG3756; break forthG4486 andG2532 cryG994, thou that travailestG5605 notG3756: forG3754 the desolateG2048 hath many moreG4183 childrenG5043 thanG3123+G2228 she which hathG2192 an husbandG435.
NowG1161 weG2249, brethrenG80, asG2596 IsaacG2464 wasG2596, areG2070 the childrenG5043 of promiseG1860.
ButG235 asG5618 thenG5119 he that was bornG1080 afterG2596 the fleshG4561 persecutedG1377 him that was born afterG2596 the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 soG3779 it is nowG3568.
NeverthelessG235 whatG5101 saithG3004 the scriptureG1124? Cast outG1544 the bondwomanG3814 andG2532 herG846 sonG5207: forG1063 the sonG5207 of the bondwomanG3814 shallG2816 notG3364 be heirG2816 withG3326 the sonG5207 of the freewomanG1658.
So thenG686, brethrenG80, we areG2070 notG3756 childrenG5043 of the bondwomanG3814, butG235 of the freeG1658.
AsG5613 we haveG2192 thereforeG686+G3767 opportunityG2540, let us doG2038 goodG18 untoG4314 allG3956 men, especiallyG1161+G3122 untoG4314 them who are of the householdG3609 of faithG4102.
ForG1063 ourG2257 conversationG4175 isG5225 inG1722 heavenG3772; fromG1537 whenceG3739 alsoG2532 we look forG553 the SaviourG4990, the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {conversation…: or, we live or conduct ourselves as citizens of heaven, or, for obtaining heaven}
BeholdG1492, what mannerG4217 of loveG26 the FatherG3962 hath bestowedG1325 upon usG2254, thatG2443 we should be calledG2564 the sonsG5043 of GodG2316: thereforeG1223+G5124 the worldG2889 knowethG1097 usG2248 notG3756, becauseG3754 it knewG1097 himG846 notG3756.
ButG235 ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 SionG4622, andG2532 unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 to an innumerable companyG3461 of angelsG32,
To the general assemblyG3831 andG2532 churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416, which are writtenG583 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of allG3956, andG2532 to the spiritsG4151 of just menG1342 made perfectG5048, {written: or, enrolled}
AndG2532 to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of the newG3501 covenantG1242, andG2532 to the bloodG129 of sprinklingG4473, that speakethG2980 better thingsG2909 thanG3844 that of AbelG6. {covenant: or, testament}
AndG5037 hadG2192 a wallG5038 greatG3173 andG2532 highG5308, and hadG2192 twelveG1427 gatesG4440, andG2532 atG1909 the gatesG4440 twelveG1427 angelsG32, andG2532 namesG3686 written thereonG1924, whichG3739 areG2076 the names of the twelveG1427 tribesG5443 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474:
OnG575 the eastG395 threeG5140 gatesG4440; onG575 the northG1005 threeG5140 gatesG4440; onG575 the southG3558 threeG5140 gatesG4440; andG2532 onG575 the westG1424 threeG5140 gatesG4440.
AndG2532 the wallG5038 of the cityG4172 hadG2192 twelveG1427 foundationsG2310, andG2532 inG1722 themG846 the namesG3686 of the twelveG1427 apostlesG652 of the LambG721.
AndG2532 he that talkedG2980 withG3326 meG1700 hadG2192 a goldenG5552 reedG2563 toG2443 measureG3354 the cityG4172, andG2532 the gatesG4440 thereofG846, andG2532 the wallG5038 thereofG846.
AndG2532 the cityG4172 liethG2749 foursquareG5068, andG2532 the lengthG3372+G846 isG2076 as largeG5118 asG3745+G2532 the breadthG4114: andG2532 he measuredG3354 the cityG4172 with the reedG2563+G1909, twelveG1427 thousandG5505 furlongsG4712. The lengthG3372 andG2532 the breadthG4114 andG2532 the heightG5311 of itG846 areG2076 equalG2470.
AndG2532 he measuredG3354 the wallG5038 thereofG846, an hundredG1540 and fortyG5062 and fourG5064 cubitsG4083, according to the measureG3358 of a manG444, that isG3603, of the angelG32.
AndG2532 the buildingG1739 of the wallG5038 of itG846 wasG2258 of jasperG2393: andG2532 the cityG4172 was pureG2513 goldG5553, likeG3664 unto clearG2513 glassG5194.
AndG2532 the foundationsG2310 of the wallG5038 of the cityG4172 were garnished withG2885 all manner ofG3956 preciousG5093 stonesG3037. The firstG4413 foundationG2310 was jasperG2393; the secondG1208, sapphireG4552; the thirdG5154, a chalcedonyG5472; the fourthG5067, an emeraldG4665;
The fifthG3991, sardonyxG4557; the sixthG1623, sardiusG4556; the seventhG1442, chrysoliteG5555; the eighthG3590, berylG969; the ninthG1766, a topazG5116; the tenthG1182, a chrysoprasusG5556; the eleventhG1734, a jacinthG5192; the twelfthG1428, an amethystG271.
AndG2532 the twelveG1427 gatesG4440 were twelveG1427 pearlsG3135; everyG1538+G303 severalG1520 gateG4440 wasG2258 ofG1537 oneG1520 pearlG3135: andG2532 the streetG4113 of the cityG4172 was pureG2513 goldG5553, as it wereG5613 transparentG1307 glassG5194.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 noG3756 templeG3485 thereinG1722+G846: forG1063 the LordG2962 GodG2316 AlmightyG3841 andG2532 the LambG721 areG2076 the templeG3485 of itG846.
AndG2532 the cityG4172 hadG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of the sunG2246, neitherG3761 of the moonG4582, toG2443 shineG5316 inG1722 itG846: forG1063 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 did lightenG5461 itG846, andG2532 the LambG721 is the lightG3088 thereofG846.
AndG2532 the nationsG1484 of them which are savedG4982 shall walkG4043 inG1722 the lightG5457 of itG846: andG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 do bringG5342 theirG846 gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 intoG1519 itG846.
AndG2532 the gatesG4440 of itG846 shallG2808 notG3364 be shutG2808 at allG3364 by dayG2250: forG1063 there shall beG2071 noG3756 nightG3571 thereG1563.
AndG2532 they shall bringG5342 the gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 of the nationsG1484 intoG1519 itG846.
