Ephesians 2

1 By comparing what we were by 3 nature, with what we are by 5 grace, 10 he declareth, that we are made for good works: and 13 being brought near by Christ, should not live as 11 Gentiles, and 12 foreigners in time past, but as 19 citizens with the saints, and the family of God.

 2:1 ¶ And 2532 you 5209 [hath he quickened], who were 5607 z5752 dead 3498 in trespasses 3900 and 2532 sins; 266

 2:2 Wherein 1722 3739 in time past 4218 ye walked 4043 z5656 according x2596 to y2596 the x3588 course 165 of this 5127 world, 2889 according x2596 to y2596 the x3588 prince 758 of the x3588 power 1849 of the x3588 air, 109 the x3588 spirit 4151 that now y3568 worketh 1754 z5723 x3568 in 1722 the x3588 children 5207 of disobedience: 543

 2:3 Among 1722 whom 3739 also 2532 we 2249 all 3956 had our conversation 390 z5648 in times past 4218 in 1722 the x3588 lusts 1939 of our 2257 flesh, 4561 fulfilling 4160 z5723 the x3588 desires 2307 of the x3588 flesh 4561 and 2532 of the x3588 mind; 1271 and 2532 were 2258 z5713 by nature 5449 the children 5043 of wrath, 3709 even 2532 as 5613 others. 3062

 2:4 But 1161 God, 2316 who is 5607 z5752 rich 4145 in 1722 mercy, 1656 for 1223 his y846 x848 great 4183 love 26 wherewith 3739 he loved 25 z5656 us, 2248

 2:5 Even 2532 when we 2248 were 5607 z5752 dead 3498 in sins, 3900 hath quickened us together x4806 with y4806 z5656 Christ, y5547 (by x5547 grace 5485 ye are 2075 z5748 saved;) 4982 z5772

 2:6 And 2532 hath raised [us] up together, 4891 z5656 and 2532 made [us] sit together 4776 z5656 in 1722 heavenly 2032 [places] in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus: 2424

 2:7 That 2443 in 1722 the x3588 ages 165 to come 1904 z5740 he might shew 1731 z5672 the x3588 exceeding 5235 z5723 riches 4149 of his y846 x848 grace 5485 in 1722 [his] kindness 5544 toward 1909 us 2248 through 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus. 2424

 2:8 For 1063 by grace 5485 are x2075 ye y2075 z5748 saved 4982 z5772 through 1223 faith; 4102 and 2532 that 5124 not 3756 of 1537 yourselves: 5216 [it is] the x3588 gift 1435 of God: 2316

 2:9 Not 3756 of 1537 works, 2041 lest 3363 any man 5100 should boast. 2744 z5667

 2:10 For 1063 we are 2070 z5748 his 846 workmanship, 4161 created 2936 z5685 in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus 2424 unto 1909 good 18 works, 2041 which 3739 God 2316 hath before ordained 4282 z5656 that 2443 we should walk 4043 z5661 in 1722 them. 846

 2:11 Wherefore 1352 remember, 3421 z5720 that 3754 ye 5210 [being] in time past 4218 Gentiles 1484 in 1722 the flesh, 4561 who 3588 are called 3004 z5746 Uncircumcision 203 by 5259 that which y3588 is called 3004 z5746 the Circumcision 4061 in 1722 the flesh 4561 made by hands; 5499

 2:12 That 3754 at 1722 that 1565 time 2540 ye were 2258 z5713 without 5565 Christ, 5547 being aliens 526 z5772 from the x3588 commonwealth 4174 of Israel, 2474 and 2532 strangers 3581 from the x3588 covenants 1242 of promise, 1860 having 2192 z5723 no 3361 hope, 1680 and 2532 without God 112 in 1722 the x3588 world: 2889

 2:13 But 1161 now 3570 in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus 2424 ye 5210 who y3588 sometimes y4218 were 5607 z5752 x4218 far off 3112 are made 1096 z5675 nigh 1451 by 1722 the x3588 blood 129 of Christ. 5547

 2:14 For 1063 he 846 is 2076 z5748 our 2257 peace, 1515 who y3588 hath made 4160 z5660 both 297 one, 1520 and 2532 hath broken down 3089 z5660 the x3588 middle wall 3320 of partition 5418 [between us];

 2:15 Having abolished 2673 z5660 in 1722 his y846 x848 flesh 4561 the x3588 enmity, 2189 [even] the x3588 law 3551 of commandments 1785 [contained] in 1722 ordinances; 1378 for to y2443 x2243 make 2936 z5661 in 1722 himself 1438 of twain 1417 x1519 one 1520 y1519 new 2537 man, 444 [so] making 4160 z5723 peace; 1515

 2:16 And 2532 that he might reconcile 604 z5661 both 297 unto God 2316 in 1722 one 1520 body 4983 by 1223 the x3588 cross, 4716 having slain 615 z5660 the x3588 enmity 2189 thereby: 1722 846

 2:17 And 2532 came 2064 z5631 and preached 2097 z5668 peace 1515 to you 5213 which y3588 were afar off, 3112 and 2532 to them that were nigh. 1451

 2:18 For 3754 through 1223 him 846 we y2192 z0 both 297 have 2192 z5719 access 4318 by 1722 one 1520 Spirit 4151 unto 4314 the x3588 Father. 3962

 2:19 Now y3767 x686 therefore y686 x3767 ye are 2075 z5748 no more 3765 strangers 3581 and 2532 foreigners, 3941 but 235 fellowcitizens 4847 with the x3588 saints, 40 and 2532 of the household 3609 of God; 2316

 2:20 And are built 2026 z5685 upon 1909 the x3588 foundation 2310 of the x3588 apostles 652 and 2532 prophets, 4396 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 himself 846 being 5607 z5752 the chief corner 204 [stone];

 2:21 In 1722 whom 3739 all 3956 the x3588 building 3619 fitly framed together 4883 z5746 groweth 837 z5719 unto 1519 an holy 40 temple 3485 in 1722 the Lord: 2962

 2:22 In 1722 whom 3739 ye 5210 also 2532 are builded together 4925 z5743 for 1519 an habitation 2732 of God 2316 through 1722 the Spirit. 4151
