7aOf this gospel I was made ba minister according to the gift of cGod's grace, which was given me dby the working of his power. 8To me, ethough I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, fto preach to the Gentiles the gunsearchable hriches of Christ, 9and ito bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery jhidden for ages in2 God, kwho created all things, 10so that through the church the manifold lwisdom of God mmight now be made known to nthe rulers and authorities oin the heavenly places. 11This was paccording to the eternal purpose that he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord, 12in whom we have qboldness and raccess with sconfidence through our tfaith in him. 13So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering ufor you, vwhich is your glory.
