Day 30

Ephesians 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.

4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love.

5 he[c] predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will–

6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.

7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace

8 that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.

9 And he[d] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ,

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.

11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,

12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.

13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,

14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession–to the praise of his glory.


以 弗 所 書 1

3 願頌讚歸與我們主耶穌基督的父神、他在基督裏、
曾賜給我們天上各樣屬靈的福氣．

4 就如　神從創立世界以前、在基督裏揀選了我們、使我們在他面前
成為聖潔、無有瑕疵．

5 又因愛我們、就按著自己意旨所喜悅的、預定我們、
藉著耶穌基督得兒子的名分、

6 使他榮耀的恩典得著稱讚．這恩典是他在愛子裏所賜給我們的。

7 我們藉這愛子的血、得蒙救贖、過犯得以赦免、乃是照他豐富的恩典．

8 這恩典是　神用諸般智慧聰明、充充足足賞給我們的、

9 都是照他自己所預定的美意、叫我們知道他旨意的奧祕、

10 要照所安排的、在日期滿足的時候、使天上地上一切所有的、
都在基督裏面同歸於一。

11 我們也在他裏面得了基業、〔得或作成〕
這原是那位隨己意行作萬事的、照著他旨意所預定的．

12 叫他的榮耀、從我們這首先在基督裏有盼望的人、可以得著稱讚。

13 你們既聽見真理的道、就是那叫你們得救的福音、也信了基督、
既然信他、就受了所應許的聖靈為印記．

14 這聖靈、是我們得基業的憑據、〔原文作質〕直等到　神之民〔民原文作產業〕被贖、使他的榮耀得著稱讚。
