Christ for you Gentiles,

1 Hujus rei gratia, ego Paulus vinctus Christi Jesu, pro vobis gentibus,

2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God

A ⟨his grace,⟩

which is given me to you-ward:

2 si tamen audistis dispensationem gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi in vobis:

3 How that by revelation he

ℵBA ⟨was⟩

made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,

3 quoniam secundum revelationem notum mihi factum est sacramentum, sicut supra scripsi in brevi,

4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

4 prout potestis legentes intelligere prudentiam meam in mysterio Christi:

5 Which in

ℵBA ⟨to⟩

other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles

B ⟨saints⟩

and prophets by the Spirit;

5 quod aliis generationibus non est agnitum filiis hominum, sicuti nunc revelatum est sanctis apostolis ejus et prophetis in Spiritu,

6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his

ℵBA ⟨the⟩

promise in Christ

ℵBA ⟨Christ Jesus⟩

by the gospel:

6 gentes esse cohæredes, et concorporales, et comparticipes promissionis ejus in Christo Jesu per Evangelium:

7 Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.

7 cujus factus sum minister secundum donum gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi secundum operationem virtutis ejus.

8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among

ℵBA ⟨unto⟩

the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

8 Mihi omnium sanctorum minimo data est gratia hæc, in gentibus evangelizare investigabiles divitias Christi,

9 And to make all men see

ℵA ⟨show⟩

what is the fellowship

ℵBA ⟨dispensation⟩

of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in

ℵ ⟨by⟩

God, who created all things by Jesus Christ

ℵBA omit

:

9 et illuminare omnes, quæ sit dispensatio sacramenti absconditi a sæculis in Deo, qui omnia creavit:

10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

10 ut innotescat principatibus et potestatibus in cælestibus per Ecclesiam, multiformis sapientia Dei,

11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

11 secundum præfinitionem sæculorum, quam fecit in Christo Jesu Domino nostro:

12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

12 in quo habemus fiduciam, et accessum in confidentia per fidem ejus.

13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

13 Propter quod peto ne deficiatis in tribulationibus meis pro vobis: quæ est gloria vestra.

14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

ℵBA omit

,

14 ¶ Hujus rei gratia flecto genua mea ad Patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,

15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

15 ex quo omnis paternitas in cælis et in terra nominatur,

16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

16 ut det vobis secundum divitias gloriæ suæ, virtute corroborari per Spiritum ejus in interiorem hominem,

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

17 Christum habitare per fidem in cordibus vestris: in caritate radicati, et fundati,

18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height

B ⟨height, and depth⟩

;

18 ut possitis comprehendere cum omnibus sanctis, quæ sit latitudo, et longitudo, et sublimitas, et profundum:

19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

19 scire etiam supereminentem scientiæ caritatem Christi, ut impleamini in omnem plenitudinem Dei.

20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us

A ⟨you⟩

,

20 Ei autem, qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter quam petimus aut intelligimus, secundum virtutem, quæ operatur in nobis:

21 Unto him be glory in the church by

ℵBA ⟨and in⟩

Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

21 ipsi gloria in Ecclesia, et in Christo Jesu, in omnes generationes sæculi sæculorum. Amen.
