| Ephesians 2 Text (WEB)
|
- You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins,
- in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience;
- among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
- But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
- even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
- and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
- that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus;
- for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
- not of works, that no one would boast.
- For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
- Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "uncircumcision" by that which is called "circumcision," (in the flesh, made by hands);
- that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
- But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ.
- For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,
- having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;
- and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility thereby.
- He came and preached peace to you who were far off and to those who were near.
- For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.
- So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
- being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;
- in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
- in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

- גם אתכם המתים לפנים בפשעיכם וחטאתיכם׃
- אשר התהלכתם בהם לפי דור העולם הזה כרצון שר ממשלת האויר והוא הרוח הפעל כעת בבני המרי׃
- וגם אנחנו כלנו בתוכם הלכנו לפנים בתאות הבשר לעשות חפצי בשרנו ומחשבותינו ונהי אך בני רגז בטבענו כאשר בני אדם׃
- אבל האלהים המלא רחמים ברב אהבתו אשר אהב אתנו׃
- אחרי היותנו מתים בפשעים החינו עם המשיח בחסד נושעתם׃
- ויעירנו אתו אף הושיבנו במרומים במשיח ישוע׃
- להראות בדרות הבאים את גדלת עשר חסדו בטובתו עלינו במשיח ישוע׃
- כי בחסד נושעתם על ידי האמונה ולא מידכם היתה זאת כי מתת אלהים היא׃
- לא מתוך המעשים שלא יתהלל איש׃
- כי פעל אלהים אנחנו נבראים במשיח ישוע למעשים טובים אשר הכין האלהים מקדם למען נתהלך בהם׃
- על כן זכרו כי אתם הגוים בבשר הנקראים ערלים בפי הנקראים בני המילה שהיא מעשה ידים בבשר׃
- כי אתם בעת ההיא הייתם בלי משיח מוזרים לעדת ישראל ונכרים לבריתות ההבטחה באין תקוה ובאין לכם אלהים בעולם׃
- ועתה בישוע המשיח אתם הרחוקים מאז הייתם קרובים בדם המשיח׃
- כי הוא שלומנו אשר עשה השנים לאחד והרס מחיצת הגדר׃
- בבטלו האיבה בבשרו את תורת המצות בגזרותיהן לברא בנפשו את השנים לאיש אחד חדש ויעש שלום׃
- וירצה את שניהם בגוף אחד לאלהים על ידי צליבתו בהמיתו בנפשו את האיבה׃
- ויבא ויבשר שלום לכם הרחוקים והקרובים׃
- כי על ידו יש לשנינו מבוא ברוח אחד אל אבינו׃
- לכן אינכם עוד גרים ותושבים כי אתם בני עיר אחת עם הקדשים ובני בית אלהים׃
- בנוים על יסוד השליחים והנביאים וישוע המשיח הוא אבן הפנה׃
- אשר חבר בו יחד הבנין כלו עדי יגבה להיכל קדש ליהוה׃
- ובו נבנים גם אתם להיות משכן אלהים ברוח׃

| Ephesians 2 Text (Latin)
|
- Et vos, cum essetis mortui delictis et peccatis vestris,
- in quibus aliquando ambulastis secundum sæculum mundi hujus, secundum principem potestatis aëris hujus, spiritus, qui nunc operatur in filios diffidentiæ,
- in quibus et nos omnes aliquando conversati sumus in desideriis carnis nostræ, facientes voluntatem carnis et cogitationum, et eramus natura filii iræ, sicut et ceteri :
- Deus autem, qui dives est in misericordia, propter nimiam caritatem suam, qua dilexit nos,
- et cum essemus mortui peccatis, convivificavit nos in Christo (cujus gratia estis salvati),
- et conresuscitavit, et consedere fecit in cælestibus in Christo Jesu :
- ut ostenderet in sæculis supervenientibus abundantes divitias gratiæ suæ, in bonitate super nos in Christo Jesu.
- Gratia enim estis salvati per fidem, et hoc non ex vobis : Dei enim donum est :
- non ex operibus, ut ne quis glorietur.
- Ipsius enim sumus factura, creati in Christo Jesu in operibus bonis, quæ præparavit Deus ut in illis ambulemus.
- Propter quod memores estote quod aliquando vos gentes in carne, qui dicimini præputium ab ea quæ dicitur circumcisio in carne, manu facta :
- quia eratis illo in tempore sine Christo, alienati a conversatione Israël, et hospites testamentorum, promissionis spem non habentes, et sine Deo in hoc mundo.
- Nunc autem in Christo Jesu, vos, qui aliquando eratis longe, facti estis prope in sanguine Christi.
- Ipse enim est pax nostra, qui fecit utraque unum, et medium parietem maceriæ solvens, inimicitias in carne sua,
- legem mandatorum decretis evacuans, ut duos condat in semetipso in unum novum hominem, faciens pacem :
- et reconciliet ambos in uno corpore, Deo per crucem, interficiens inimicitias in semetipso.
- Et veniens evangelizavit pacem vobis, qui longe fuistis, et pacem iis, qui prope.
- Quoniam per ipsum habemus accessum ambo in uno Spiritu ad Patrem.
- Ergo jam non estis hospites, et advenæ : sed estis cives sanctorum, et domestici Dei,
- superædificati super fundamentum apostolorum, et prophetarum, ipso summo angulari lapide Christo Jesu :
- in quo omnis ædificatio constructa crescit in templum sanctum in Domino,
- in quo et vos coædificamini in habitaculum Dei in Spiritu.

| Ephesians 2 Text (KJV)
|
- And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
- Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
- Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
- But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
- Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
- And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
- That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
- For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
- Not of works, lest any man should boast.
- For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
- Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
- That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
- But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
- For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
- Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
- And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
- And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
- For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
- Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
- And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
- In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
- In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
