* For this reason I Paul , prisoner of the Christ Jesus for you nations , * (if indeed ye have heard of the administration of the grace of God which has been given to me towards you , * that by revelation the mystery has been made known to me , (according as I have written before briefly , * by which , in reading it , ye can understand my intelligence in the mystery of the Christ ,) * which in other generations has not been made known to the sons of men , as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in [the power of the ] Spirit , * that [they who are of ] the nations should be joint heirs , and a joint body , and joint partakers of [his ] promise in Christ Jesus by the glad tidings ; * of which I am become minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me , according to the working of his power . * To me , less than the least of all saints , has this grace been given , to announce among the nations the glad tidings of the unsearchable riches of the Christ , * and to enlighten all [with the knowledge of ] what is the administration of the mystery hidden throughout the ages in God , who has created all things , * in order that now to the principalities and authorities in the heavenlies might be made known through the assembly the all-various wisdom of God , * according to [the ] purpose of the ages , which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord , * in whom we have boldness and access in confidence by the faith of him . * Wherefore I beseech [you ] not to faint through my tribulations for you , which is your glory .
