Ephesians 4:2-11 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

2. with all humility and gentleness, with patience, putting up with one another in love,

3. being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace;

4. one body and one Spirit (just as also you were called with one hope of your calling),

5. one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6. one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all.

7. Now to each one of us was given this grace, according to the measure of Christ’s gift.

8. Therefore it says, “Ascending on high he led captivity captive; he gave gifts to men.”

9. Now “he ascended,” what is it, except that he also descended to the lower regions of the earth?

10. The one who descended himself is also the one who ascended above all the heavens, in order that he might fill all things.

11. And he himself gave some as apostles and some as prophets and some as evangelists and some as pastors and teachers
