Ephesians 1

English Standard Version

from Crossway
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are in Ephesus, and are faithful[1] in Christ Jesus: (1Co 1:1; 2Co 1:1; Col 1:2) 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. (Ro 1:7) 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, (Ro 15:6; 2Co 1:3; Eph 1:20; Eph 2:6; Eph 3:10; Eph 6:12; 1Pe 1:3) 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love (De 7:6; De 26:18; Mt 13:35; Eph 2:10; Eph 5:27; Col 1:22; 1Th 4:7; 2Th 2:13; 2Ti 1:9; Jas 2:5; 1Pe 1:2) 5 he predestined us[2] for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, (Lu 2:14; Lu 12:32; Ro 8:15; Ro 8:29; Eph 1:9; Eph 1:11; Heb 2:4) 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. (Mt 3:17; Joh 3:35; Joh 10:17; Eph 1:12; Eph 1:14; Col 1:13) 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, (Ac 2:38; Ac 20:28; Ro 2:4; Ro 3:24; 1Co 1:30; Eph 3:8; Eph 3:16; Eph 4:30; Col 1:14; Col 1:27) 8 which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight 9 making known[3] to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ (Ro 8:28; Ro 9:11; Ro 16:25; Eph 1:5; Eph 1:11) 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. (Mr 1:15; Eph 3:15; Php 2:9; Col 1:16; Col 1:20) 11 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, (De 4:20; De 32:9; Ac 20:27; Ro 8:28; Eph 1:5; Eph 1:14; Eph 3:11; Re 4:11) 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. (Eph 1:6; Eph 1:14; Php 1:11) 13 In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, (Ac 1:4; Ac 13:26; Ac 15:7; 2Co 6:7; Eph 4:30; Col 1:5; 2Ti 2:15) 14 who is the guarantee[4] of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it,[5] to the praise of his glory. (Ac 20:32; 2Co 1:22; Eph 1:6; Eph 1:7; Eph 1:12; Eph 1:18; Tit 2:14; 1Pe 2:9) 15 For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love[6] toward all the saints, (Ro 1:8; Col 1:4; Phm 1:5) 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, (Ro 1:9; Col 1:9; 2Ti 1:3) 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, (Ro 15:6; Col 1:9) 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, (Ac 26:18; Eph 1:7; Eph 2:12; Eph 3:8; Eph 3:16; Eph 4:4; Col 1:27; Heb 6:4; Heb 10:32; Re 3:17) 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might (Da 4:30; Eph 3:7; Eph 6:10; Php 3:21; Col 1:29; Col 2:12) 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, (Mr 16:19; Ac 2:24; Ac 2:33; Eph 1:3; 1Pe 3:22) 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. (Mt 12:32; Joh 3:31; 1Co 15:24; Eph 3:15; Eph 4:10; Php 2:9; Col 2:10; Heb 1:4) 22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, (Ps 8:6; 1Co 11:3; 1Co 15:27; Eph 4:15; Eph 5:23; Col 1:18; Col 2:10; Col 2:19) 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all. (Jer 23:24; Joh 1:16; 1Co 12:27; Eph 3:19; Eph 4:10; Eph 4:12; Eph 4:16; Eph 5:23; Eph 5:30; Col 1:18; Col 1:24; Col 3:11)

Библия, ревизирано издание

from Bulgarian Bible Society
1 Павел, с Божията воля апостол на Исус Христос, до светиите и верните в Христос Исус, които са в Ефес: (Ro 1:7; 1Co 1:1; 1Co 4:17; 2Co 1:1; Eph 6:21; Col 1:2) 2 Благодат и мир да бъде на вас от Бога, нашия Отец, и от Господ Исус Христос. (Ga 1:3; Tit 1:4) 3 Благословен да бъде Бог и Отец на нашия Господ Исус Христос, Който в Христос ни е благословил с всяко духовно благословение в небесните места; (2Co 1:3; 1Pe 1:3) 4 както ни е избрал в Него преди създаването на света, за да бъдем святи и без недостатък пред Него в любов; (Lu 1:75; Ro 8:28; Ro 8:29; Col 1:22; 1Th 4:7; 2Th 2:13; 2Ti 1:9; Tit 2:12; Jas 2:5; 1Pe 1:2; 1Pe 1:20; 1Pe 2:9) 5 като ни е предопределил да Му бъдем осиновени чрез Исус Христос, по благоволението на Своята воля, (Mt 11:26; Lu 12:32; Joh 1:12; Ro 8:15; Ro 8:29; Ro 8:30; 1Co 1:21; 2Co 6:18; Ga 4:5; Eph 1:9; Eph 1:11; 1Jo 3:1) 6 за похвала на славната Си благодат, с която ни е облагодетелствал във Възлюбения Си, (Mt 3:17; Mt 17:5; Joh 3:35; Joh 10:17; Ro 3:24; Ro 5:15) 7 в Когото имаме изкуплението си чрез кръвта Му, прощението на прегрешенията ни, според богатството на Неговата благодат, (Ac 20:28; Ro 2:4; Ro 3:24; Ro 3:25; Ro 9:23; Eph 2:7; Eph 3:8; Eph 3:16; Php 4:19; Col 1:14; Heb 9:12; 1Pe 1:18; 1Pe 1:19; Re 5:9) 8 която е направил да ни дава изобилно всяка мъдрост и разбиране, 9 като ни е открил тайната на волята Си според благоволението, което е положил в Себе Си, (Ro 16:25; Eph 3:4; Eph 3:9; Eph 3:11; Col 1:26; 2Ti 1:9) 10 за да се приложи, когато се изпълнят времената, т. е. да се събере в Христос всичко – това, което е небесно и земно; (Da 9:24; Mr 1:15; 1Co 3:22; 1Co 3:23; 1Co 11:3; Ga 4:4; Eph 2:15; Eph 3:15; Php 2:9; Php 2:19; Col 1:20; Heb 1:2; Heb 9:10; 1Pe 1:20) 11 в Него също така ни се пада да бъдем наследници, като бяхме предопределени за това според намерението на Бога, Който действа във всичко по решението на Своята воля, (Isa 46:10; Isa 46:11; Lu 7:30; Ac 20:32; Ac 26:18; Ro 8:17; Eph 1:5; Col 1:12; Col 3:24; Tit 3:7; Jas 2:5; 1Pe 1:4) 12 така че да бъдем за похвала на Неговата слава – ние, които отпреди се надявахме на Христос, (Eph 1:6; Eph 1:14; 2Th 2:13; Jas 1:18) 13 в Когото и вие, като чухте словото на истината, т. е. благовестието на нашето спасение, в Когото, като и повярвахте, бяхте запечатани с обещания Свят Дух, (Joh 1:17; 2Co 1:22; 2Co 6:7; Eph 4:30) 14 Който е залог за нашето наследство, докато бъде изкупено притежанието на Бога, за да бъдете за похвала на Неговата слава. (Ac 20:28; 2Co 1:22; 2Co 5:5; Eph 1:6; Eph 1:12; 1Pe 2:9) 15 Затова и аз, като чух за вярата ви в Господ Исус и за любовта, която сте показали към всички светии, (Col 1:4; Phm 1:5) 16 непрестанно благодаря на Бога за вас и ви споменавам в молитвите си, (Ro 1:9; Php 1:3; Php 1:4; Col 1:3; 1Th 1:2; 2Th 1:3) 17 дано Бог на нашия Господ Исус Христос, славният Отец, ви даде дух на мъдрост и откровение, за да Го познаете, (Joh 20:17; 1Co 12:8; Col 1:9) 18 и да просветли очите на сърцето ви, за да познаете каква е надеждата, към която ви призовава, какво е богатството между светиите на славното Негово наследство (Ac 26:18; Eph 1:11; Eph 2:12; Eph 4:4) 19 и колко превъзходно велика е силата Му към нас, вярващите – сила, която е според действието на Неговата могъща сила, (Eph 3:7; Col 1:29; Col 2:12) 20 с която подейства в Христос, когато Го възкреси от мъртвите и Го сложи да седне от дясната Си страна на небесата, (Ps 110:1; Mr 16:19; Ac 2:24; Ac 2:33; Ac 7:55; Ac 7:56; Col 3:1; Heb 1:3; Heb 10:12) 21 далече над всяко началство и власт, сила и господство, и всяко име, с което се наричат, не само в този свят, но и в бъдещия. (Ro 8:38; Php 2:9; Php 2:10; Col 1:16; Col 2:10; Col 2:15; Heb 1:4) 22 И всичко покори под нозете Му и Го постави да бъде глава над всичко за църквата, (Ps 8:6; Ps 8:7; Mt 28:18; 1Co 15:27; Eph 4:15; Eph 4:16; Eph 5:23; Col 1:18; Col 2:10; Heb 2:7; Heb 2:8) 23 която е Негово тяло, изпълнено с пълнотата на Този, Който изпълва всичко във всички. (Ro 12:5; 1Co 12:6; 1Co 12:12; 1Co 12:27; Eph 4:10; Eph 4:12; Eph 5:23; Eph 5:30; Col 1:18; Col 1:24; Col 2:9; Col 3:11)
