King James Version
"Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,"
— Ephesians 1:5, King James Version
“having foreordained us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, ”
“having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,”
“He did this by predestining us to adoption as his legal heirs through Jesus Christ, according to the pleasure of his will–”
“Who hath predestinated us unto the adoption of children through Jesus Christ unto himself: according to the purpose of his will:”
“As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose,”
“Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,”
Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
