¹⁶ that He would grant you, according to ^(A)the riches of His glory, to be ^(B)strengthened with power through His Spirit in ^(C)the inner ^[a]self, ¹⁷ so that ^(D)Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being ^(E)rooted and ^(F)grounded in love,

¹⁹ and to know ^(A)the love of Christ which ^(B)surpasses knowledge, that you may be ^(C)filled to all the ^(D)fullness of God.

^20 (E)Now to Him who is ^(F)able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, ^(G)according to the power that works within us,

²⁷ to whom ^(A)God willed to make known what ^(B)the wealth of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles is, the mystery that is ^(C)Christ in you, the ^(D)hope of glory. ²⁸ We proclaim Him, ^(E)admonishing every person and teaching every person ^[a]with all ^(F)wisdom, so that we may ^(G)present every person ^[b](H)complete in Christ. ²⁹ For this purpose I also ^(I)labor, ^(J)striving ^(K)according to His ^[c]power which ^[d]works mightily within me.

⁴ You are from God, ^(A)little children, and ^(B)have overcome them; because ^(C)greater is He who is in you than ^(D)he who is in the world.

The Wisdom of God

¹⁸ For the word of the cross is ^(A)foolishness to ^(B)those who ^[a]are perishing, but to us who ^[b]are being saved it is ^(C)the power of God.

¹⁶ For I am not ^(A)ashamed of the gospel, for ^(B)it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the ^(C)Jew first and also to ^(D)the Greek.
