1:2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
1:4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love
1:5 he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will--
1:6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.
1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
1:8 that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
1:9 And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ,
1:10 to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment--to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.
