Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the purpose of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and those who have faith in Christ Jesus:

In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,

For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,

And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power,

Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God:

By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.

So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,

One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

Till we all come to the harmony of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to full growth, to the full measure of Christ:

And most of all, using faith as a cover to keep off all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.

Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
