15For this reason I too, ahaving heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and 1your love for ball the 2saints,

16ado not cease giving thanks for you, bwhile making mention of you in my prayers;

17that the aGod of our Lord Jesus Christ, bthe Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of cwisdom and of drevelation in the 1knowledge of Him.

18I pray that athe eyes of your heart 1may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the bhope of His ccalling, what are dthe riches of the glory of eHis inheritance in fthe 2saints,

19and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. aThese are in accordance with the working of the bstrength of His might

20which He brought about in Christ, when He araised Him from the dead and bseated Him at His right hand in cthe heavenly places,

21far above aall rule and authority and power and dominion, and every bname that is named, not only in cthis age but also in the one to come.

22And He aput all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as bhead over all things to the church,

23which is His abody, the bfullness of Him who cfills dall in all.
