1 By reason of this grace, I, Paul, am a prisoner of Jesus Christ, for the sake of you Gentiles.
1 POR esta causa yo Pablo, prisionero de Cristo Jesús por vosotros los Gentiles,
2 Now certainly, you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which has been given to me among you:
2 Si es que habéis oído la dispensación de la gracia de Dios que me ha sido dada para con vosotros,
3 that, by means of revelation, the mystery was made known to me, just as I have written above in a few words.
3 [A saber], que por revelación me fué declarado el misterio, como antes he escrito en breve;
4 Yet, by reading this closely, you might be able to understand my prudence in the mystery of Christ.
4 Leyendo lo cual podéis entender cuál sea mi inteligencia en el misterio de Cristo:
5 In other generations, this was unknown to the sons of men, even as it has now been revealed to his holy Apostles and Prophets in the Spirit,
5 El cual [misterio] en los otros siglos no se dió á conocer á los hijos de los hombres como ahora es revelado á sus santos apóstoles y profetas en el Espíritu:
6 so that the Gentiles would be co-heirs, and of the same body, and partners together, by his promise in Christ Jesus, through the Gospel.
6 Que los Gentiles sean juntamente herederos, é incorporados, y consortes de su promesa en Cristo por el evangelio:
7 Of this Gospel, I have been made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which has been given to me by means of the operation of his virtue.
7 Del cual yo soy hecho ministro por el don de la gracia de Dios que me ha sido dado según la operación de su potencia.
8 Although I am the least of all the saints, I have been given this grace: to evangelize among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
8 A mí, que soy menos que el más pequeño de todos los santos, es dada esta gracia de anunciar entre los Gentiles el evangelio de las inescrutables riquezas de Cristo,
9 and to enlighten everyone concerning the dispensation of the mystery, hidden before the ages in God who created all things,
9 Y de aclarar á todos cuál sea la dispensación del misterio escondido desde los siglos en Dios, que crió todas las cosas.
10 so that the manifold wisdom of God may become well-known to the principalities and powers in the heavens, through the Church,
10 Para que la multiforme sabiduría de Dios sea ahora notificada por la iglesia á los principados y potestades en los cielos,
11 according to that timeless purpose, which he has formed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
11 Conforme á la determinación eterna, que hizo en Cristo Jesús nuestro Señor:
12 In him we trust, and so we approach with confidence, through his faith.
12 En el cual tenemos seguridad y entrada con confianza por la fe de él.
13 Because of this, I ask you not to be weakened by my tribulations on your behalf; for this is your glory.
13 Por tanto, pido que no desmayéis á causa de mis tribulaciones por vosotros, las cuales son vuestra gloria.
14 By reason of this grace, I bend my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
14 Por esta causa doblo mis rodillas al Padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo,
15 from whom all paternity in heaven and on earth takes its name.
15 Del cual es nombrada toda la parentela en los cielos y en la tierra,
16 And I ask him to grant to you to be strengthened in virtue by his Spirit, in accord with the wealth of his glory, in the inner man,
16 Que os dé, conforme á las riquezas de su gloria, el ser corroborados con potencia en el hombre interior por su Espíritu.
17 so that Christ may live in your hearts through a faith rooted in, and founded on, charity.
17 Que habite Cristo por la fe en vuestros corazones; para que, arraigados y fundados en amor,
18 So may you be able to embrace, with all the saints, what is the width and length and height and depth
18 Podáis bien comprender con todos los santos cuál sea la anchura y la longura y la profundidad y la altura,
19 of the charity of Christ, and even be able to know that which surpasses all knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
19 Y conocer el amor de Cristo, que excede á todo conocimiento, para que seáis llenos de toda la plenitud de Dios.
20 Now to him who is able to do all things, more abundantly than we could ever ask or understand, by means of the virtue which is at work in us:
20 Y á Aquel que es poderoso para hacer todas las cosas mucho más abundantemente de lo que pedimos ó entendemos, por la potencia que obra en nosotros,
21 to him be glory, in the Church and in Christ Jesus, throughout every generation, forever and ever. Amen.
21 A él [sea] gloria en la iglesia por Cristo Jesús, por todas edades del siglo de los siglos. Amén.

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).
We relate how it came to pass,--she leapeth for joy, and triumpheth, and blesseth Thee, who art "able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think; for she perceived Thee to have given her more for me than she used to ask by her pitiful and most doleful groanings.

… we also say like the Apostle, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all consolation: and, We bow our knees unto the Father from whom all fatherhood in heaven and on earth is named: glorifying Him with the Only-begotten: for he that denieth the Father, denieth the Son …
