하나님의 뜻에 따라 그리스도 예수님의 사도가 된 나 바울은 에베소에 있는 성도 들과 그리스도 예수님을 믿는 신자들에게

하나님 우리 아버지와 주 예수 그리스도의 은혜와 평안이 함께하기를 기도합니다.

그리스도 안에서 누리는 영적인 복

우리 주 예수 그리스도의 아버지 하나님께 찬양을 드립니다. 하나님 아버지께서는 그리스도 안에서 하늘의 모든 영적인 복을 우리에게 내려 주셨습니다.

하나님은 우리가 자기 앞에서 거룩하고 흠이 없게 하시려고 세상을 창조하시기 전에 그리스도 안에서 우리를 선택하셨습니다. 그리고 우리를 사랑하셨기 때문에

하나님은 예수 그리스도를 통하여 그분의 기뻐하시는 뜻을 따라 우리를 자기 자녀로 예정하셨습니다.

이것은 우리가 그분이 사랑하시는 아들 안에서 우리에게 거저 주신 은혜와 영광을 찬양하게 하려는 것입니다.

우리는 하나님의 풍성하신 은혜를 따라 그리스도 안에서 그분의 피로 죄 사함을 받고 구원을 얻었습니다.

하나님은 모든 지혜와 총명으로 우리에게 그런 은혜를 주신 것입니다.

그리고 하나님은 자기가 기뻐하시는 뜻대로 그리스도 안에서 미리 계획하신 비밀을 우리에게 알려 주셨는데

10 그것은 때가 되면 하늘과 땅에 있는 모든 것이 그리스도 안에서 하나가 되도록 하는 것입니다.

11 그리스도 안에서 모든 것을 자기 뜻대로 이루시는 하나님의 계획을 따라 예정대로 우리는 그분의 [a]백성이 되었습니다.

12 이것은 제일 먼저 그리스도를 대망하던 우리가 하나님의 영광을 찬양하도록 하기 위한 것입니다.

13 그리고 여러분도 진리의 말씀인 구원의 기쁜 소식을 듣고 그리스도를 믿게 되었으며 하나님께서는 이를 확인하는 표로 약속하신 성령을 우리에게 주셨습니다.

14 성령께서는 하나님이 약속하신 것을 우리가 받을 것이라는 것을 보증하시고 하나님의 백성이 구원을 받아 그분의 영광을 찬양하도록 하십니다.

감사와 기도

15 나는 여러분이 주 예수님을 잘 믿고 모든 성도를 사랑한다는 말을 듣고

16 기도할 때마다 여러분을 생각하며 항상 하나님께 감사하고 있습니다.

17 나는 우리 주 예수 그리스도의 하나님, 영광의 아버지께서 여러분에게 지혜와 계시의 성령을 주셔서 하나님을 더욱 잘 알게 해 주시고

18 여러분의 마음의 눈을 밝히셔서 부르심을 받은 여러분의 희망이 무엇이며 성도들이 하늘 나라에서 받게 될 영광스러운 축복이 얼마나 풍성한가를 알게 해 주시고

19 또 믿는 우리 속에서 강한 능력으로 역사하시는 하나님의 권능이 얼마나 큰가를 알게 하시기를 기도합니다.

20 하나님께서는 그 크신 능력으로 그리스도를 죽은 사람들 가운데서 다시 살리시고 하늘 나라에서 자기 오른편에 앉게 하셨습니다.

21 그뿐만 아니라 그리스도를 모든 통치자와 권세와 능력과 지배권과 또 이 세상이나 오는 세상의 모든 이름 위에 뛰어나게 하셨습니다.

22 그리고 하나님은 모든 것을 그리스도의 발 아래 복종하게 하시고 그분을 만물 위에 교회의 머리로 삼으셨습니다.

23 교회는 그리스도의 몸이며 어디서나 모든 것을 넘치도록 채워 주시는 분이 계신 곳입니다.

Paul, an apostle(A) of Christ Jesus by the will of God,(B)

To God’s holy people(C) in Ephesus,[a](D) the faithful(E) in Christ Jesus:

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.(F)

Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,(G) who has blessed us in the heavenly realms(H) with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us(I) in him before the creation of the world(J) to be holy and blameless(K) in his sight. In love(L) he[b] predestined(M) us for adoption to sonship[c](N) through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure(O) and will— to the praise of his glorious grace,(P) which he has freely given us in the One he loves.(Q) In him we have redemption(R) through his blood,(S) the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches(T) of God’s grace that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, he[d] made known to us the mystery(U) of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed(V) in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment(W)—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.(X)

11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined(Y) according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose(Z) of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.(AA) 13 And you also were included in Christ(AB) when you heard the message of truth,(AC) the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,(AD) the promised Holy Spirit,(AE) 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance(AF) until the redemption(AG) of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.(AH)

Thanksgiving and Prayer

15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus(AI) and your love for all God’s people,(AJ) 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you,(AK) remembering you in my prayers.(AL) 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,(AM) may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom(AN) and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened(AO) in order that you may know the hope to which he has called(AP) you, the riches(AQ) of his glorious inheritance(AR) in his holy people,(AS) 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power(AT) is the same as the mighty strength(AU) 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead(AV) and seated him at his right hand(AW) in the heavenly realms,(AX) 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,(AY) and every name(AZ) that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.(BA) 22 And God placed all things under his feet(BB) and appointed him to be head(BC) over everything for the church, 23 which is his body,(BD) the fullness of him(BE) who fills everything in every way.(BF)

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
