10. for the administration of the fullness of times, to bring together all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him
11. in whom also we were chosen, having been predestined according to the purpose of the One who works all things according to the counsel of his will,
12. that we who hoped beforehand in Christ should be for the praise of his glory,
13. in whom also you, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also when you believed you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
14. who is the down payment of our inheritance, until the redemption of the possession, to the praise of his glory.
15. Because of this I also, hearing of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
16. do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention in my prayers,
17. that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him
