1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the purpose of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and those who have faith in Christ Jesus:
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
4 Even as he made selection of us in him from the first, so that we might be holy and free from all evil before him in love:
4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,
5 As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose,
5 having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely gave to us in the Loved One:
6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved.
7 In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace,
7 In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
8 Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care;
8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
9 Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands
9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
10 The ordering of the times when they are complete, so that all things might come to a head in Christ, the things in heaven and the things on the earth; in him, I say,
10 to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.
11 In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs;
11 We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,
12 So that his glory might have praise through us who first had hope in Christ:
12 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ.
13 In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,
13 In him you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
14 Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.
14 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.
15 For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,
15 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you and the love which you have toward all the saints,
16 Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers;
16 don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him,
18 And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,
18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power,
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might
20 By which he made Christ come back from the dead, and gave him a place at his right hand in heaven,
20 which he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far over all rule and authority and power and every name which is named, not only in the present order, but in that which is to come:
21 far above all rule, authority, power, dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.
22 And he has put all things under his feet, and has made him to be head over all things to the church,
22 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,
23 Which is his body, the full measure of him in whom all things are made complete.
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
… that Paul said, "And He Himself is all things;" and again, "All things are to Him, and of Him are all things;" and further, "In Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead;" and yet again, "All things are gathered together by God in Christ." Thus do they interpret these and any like passages to be found in Scripture.
And Thou, O Lord, hadst already magnified Thy Holy One, raising Him from the dead, and setting Him at Thy right hand, whence from on high He should send His promise, the Paraclete, "the Spirit of Truth." And He had already sent Him, but I knew it not; He had sent Him, because He was now magnified, rising again from …

And an indication of this is found in the fact that wherever the Natures are distinguished in our thoughts from one another, the Names are also distinguished; as you hear in Paul's words, "The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory." The God of Christ, but the Father of glory.
