>
2:1And whanne ye weren deed in youre giltis and synnes,
2:2in which ye wandriden sum tyme aftir the cours of this world, aftir the prince of the power of this eir, of the spirit that worchith now in to the sones of vnbileue;
2:3in which also we `alle lyueden sum tyme in the desiris of oure fleisch, doynge the willis of the fleisch and of thouytis, and we weren bi kynde the sones of wraththe, as othere men;
2:4but God, that is riche in merci, for his ful myche charite in which he louyde vs,
2:5yhe, whanne we weren deed in synnes, quikenede vs togidere in Crist, bi whos grace ye ben sauyd, and ayen reiside togidere,
2:6and made togidere to sitte in heuenli thingis in Crist Jhesu;
2:7that he schulde schewe in the worldis aboue comynge the plenteuouse ritchessis of his grace in goodnesse on vs in Crist Jhesu.
2:8For bi grace ye ben sauyd bi feith, and this not of you; for it is the yifte of God,
2:9not of werkis, that no man haue glorie.
2:10For we ben the makyng of hym, maad of nouyt in Crist Jhesu, in good werkis, whiche God hath ordeyned, that we go in tho werkis.
2:11For which thing be ye myndeful, that sumtyme ye weren hethene in fleisch, which weren seid prepucie, fro that that is seid circumcisioun maad bi hond in fleisch;
2:12and ye weren in that time with out Crist, alienyd fro the lyuyng of Israel, and gestis of testamentis, not hauynge hope of biheest, and with outen God in this world.
2:13But now in Crist Jhesu ye that weren sum tyme fer, ben maad nyy in the blood of Crist.
2:14For he is oure pees, that made bothe oon, and vnbyndynge the myddil wal of a wal with out morter, enmytees in his fleisch;
2:15and auoidide the lawe of maundementis bi domes, that he make twei in hym silf in to a newe man,
2:16makynge pees, to recounsele bothe in o bodi to God bi the cros, sleynge the enemytees in hym silf.
2:17And he comynge prechide pees to you that weren fer, and pees to hem that weren niy;
2:18for bi hym we bothe han niy comyng in o spirit to the fadir.
2:19Therfor now ye ben not gestis and straungeris, but ye ben citeseyns of seyntis, and houshold meine of God;
2:20aboue bildid on the foundement of apostlis and of profetis, vpon that hiyeste corner stoon, Crist Jhesu;
2:21in whom ech bildyng maad waxith in to an hooli temple in the Lord.
2:22In whom also `be ye bildid togidere in to the habitacle of God, in the Hooli Goost.

 

2:1And you hath he quickened, that were dead in trespasses and sinnes,
2:2Wherein, in times past ye walked, according to the course of this world, and after the prince that ruleth in the aire, euen the spirite, that nowe worketh in the children of disobedience,
2:3Among whom we also had our conuersation in time past, in the lustes of our flesh, in fulfilling the will of the flesh, and of the minde, and were by nature the children of wrath, as well as others.
2:4But God which is rich in mercie, through his great loue wherewith he loued vs,
2:5Euen when we were dead by sinnes, hath quickened vs together in Christ, by whose grace ye are saued,
2:6And hath raysed vs vp together, and made vs sit together in the heauenly places in Christ Iesus,
2:7That he might shewe in the ages to come the exceeding riches of his grace, through his kindnesse toward vs in Christ Iesus.
2:8For by grace are ye saued through faith, and that not of your selues: it is the gift of God,
2:9Not of workes, least any man should boast himselfe.
2:10For we are his workemanship created in Christ Iesus vnto good workes, which God hath ordeined, that we should walke in them.
2:11Wherefore remember that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, and called vncircumcision of them, which are called circumcision in the flesh, made with hands,
2:12That ye were, I say, at that time without Christ, and were alients from the common wealth of Israel, and were strangers from the couenants of promise, and had no hope, and were without God in the world.
2:13But nowe in Christ Iesus, ye which once were farre off, are made neere by the blood of Christ.
2:14For he is our peace, which hath made of both one, and hath broken the stoppe of the partition wall,
2:15In abrogating through his flesh the hatred, that is, the Lawe of commandements which standeth in ordinances, for to make of twaine one newe man in himselfe, so making peace,
2:16And that he might reconcile both vnto God in one body by his crosse, and slay hatred thereby,
2:17And came, and preached peace to you which were afarre off, and to them that were neere.
2:18For through him we both haue an entrance vnto the Father by one Spirit.
2:19Nowe therefore ye are no more strangers and forreiners: but citizens with the Saintes, and of the houshold of God,
2:20And are built vpon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, Iesus Christ himselfe being the chiefe corner stone,
2:21In whom all the building coupled together, groweth vnto an holy Temple in the Lord.
2:22In whom ye also are built together to be the habitation of God by the Spirit.

 

2:1And you He has made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins,
2:2in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience,
2:3among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
2:4But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
2:5even when we were dead in sins, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),
2:6and has raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
2:7that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
2:8Because, it is by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
2:9not of works, lest anyone should boast.
2:10Because, we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
2:11Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands,
2:12that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
2:13But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
2:14Because, He is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation between us,
2:15having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to make in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace,
2:16and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body by the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.
2:17And came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near.
2:18Because, through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
2:19Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,
2:20and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,
2:21in whom the entire building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,
2:22in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God through the Spirit.
