1τουτου χαριν εγω παυλοσ ο δεσμιοσ του χριστου ιησου υπερ υμων των εθνων
1For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ, for you Gentiles;
2ειγε ηκουσατε την οικονομιαν τησ χαριτοσ του θεου τησ δοθεισησ μοι εισ υμασ
2If yet you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me towards you:
3οτι κατα αποκαλυψιν εγνωρισεν μοι το μυστηριον καθωσ προεγραψα εν ολιγω
3How that, according to revelation, the mystery has been made known to me, as I have written above in a few words;
4προσ ο δυνασθε αναγινωσκοντεσ νοησαι την συνεσιν μου εν τω μυστηριω του χριστου
4As you reading, may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ,
5ο ετεραισ γενεαισ ουκ εγνωρισθη τοισ υιοισ των ανθρωπων ωσ νυν απεκαλυφθη τοισ αγιοισ αποστολοισ αυτου και προφηταισ εν πνευματι
5Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit:
6ειναι τα εθνη συγκληρονομα και συσσωμα και συμμετοχα τησ επαγγελιασ αυτου εν τω χριστω δια του ευαγγελιου
6That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and co-partners of his promise in Christ Jesus, by the gospel:
7ου εγενομην διακονοσ κατα την δωρεαν τησ χαριτοσ του θεου την δοθεισαν μοι κατα την ενεργειαν τησ δυναμεωσ αυτου
7Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power:
8εμοι τω ελαχιστοτερω παντων αγιων εδοθη η χαρισ αυτη εν τοισ εθνεσιν ευαγγελισασθαι τον ανεξιχνιαστον πλουτον του χριστου
8To me, the least of all the saints, is given this grace, to preach among the Gentiles, the unsearchable riches of Christ,
9και φωτισαι παντασ τισ η οικονομια του μυστηριου του αποκεκρυμμενου απο των αιωνων εν τω θεω τω τα παντα κτισαντι δια ιησου χριστου
9And to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God, who created all things:
10ινα γνωρισθη νυν ταισ αρχαισ και ταισ εξουσιαισ εν τοισ επουρανιοισ δια τησ εκκλησιασ η πολυποικιλοσ σοφια του θεου
10That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,
11κατα προθεσιν των αιωνων ην εποιησεν εν χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων
11According to the eternal purpose, which he made, in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12εν ω εχομεν την παρρησιαν και την προσαγωγην εν πεποιθησει δια τησ πιστεωσ αυτου
12In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
13διο αιτουμαι μη εκκακειν εν ταισ θλιψεσιν μου υπερ υμων ητισ εστιν δοξα υμων
13Wherefore I pray you not to faint at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14τουτου χαριν καμπτω τα γονατα μου προσ τον πατερα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
14For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15εξ ου πασα πατρια εν ουρανοισ και επι γησ ονομαζεται
15Of whom all paternity in heaven and earth is named,
16ινα δωη υμιν κατα τον πλουτον τησ δοξησ αυτου δυναμει κραταιωθηναι δια του πνευματοσ αυτου εισ τον εσω ανθρωπον
16That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man,
17κατοικησαι τον χριστον δια τησ πιστεωσ εν ταισ καρδιαισ υμων
17That Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts; that being rooted and founded in charity,
18εν αγαπη ερριζωμενοι και τεθεμελιωμενοι ινα εξισχυσητε καταλαβεσθαι συν πασιν τοισ αγιοισ τι το πλατοσ και μηκοσ και βαθοσ και υψοσ
18You may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and height, and depth:
19γνωναι τε την υπερβαλλουσαν τησ γνωσεωσ αγαπην του χριστου ινα πληρωθητε εισ παν το πληρωμα του θεου
19To know also the charity of Christ, which surpasseth all knowledge, that you may be filled unto all the fulness of God.
20τω δε δυναμενω υπερ παντα ποιησαι υπερ εκπερισσου ων αιτουμεθα η νοουμεν κατα την δυναμιν την ενεργουμενην εν ημιν
20Now to him who is able to do all things more abundantly than we desire or understand, according to the power that worketh in us;
21αυτω η δοξα εν τη εκκλησια εν χριστω ιησου εισ πασασ τασ γενεασ του αιωνοσ των αιωνων αμην
21To him be glory in the church, and in Christ Jesus unto all generations, world without end. Amen.
