1. This letter is from Paul, chosen by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus. I am writing to God’s holy people in Ephesus, who are faithful followers of Christ Jesus. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Ephesians

5. Psalm 37 Young's Literal Translation (YLT) 3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell [in] the land, and enjoy faithfulness, 4 And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the petitions of thy heart. 5 Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh, 8 Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Fret not thyself only to do evil. 10 And yet a little, and the wicked is not, And thou hast considered his place, and it is not. 11 And the humble do possess the land, And they have delighted themselves In the abundance of peace.
