Ephesians 4:12-14
International Standard Version
12 to equip[a] the saints, to do the work of ministry, and to build up the body of the Messiah[b] 13 until all of us are united in the faith and in the full knowledge of God’s Son, and until we attain mature adulthood and the full standard of development in the Messiah.[c] 14 Then we will no longer be little children, tossed like waves and blown about by every wind of doctrine, by people’s trickery, or by clever strategies that would lead us astray.

14 Then we will no longer be infants,(G) tossed back and forth by the waves,(H) and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.(I)
