7 aIn Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to bthe riches of His grace
8 which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and1 prudence,
9 ahaving made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure bwhich He purposed in Himself,
10 that in the dispensation of athe fullness of the times bHe might gather together in one call things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him.
11 aIn Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to bthe purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,
12 athat we bwho first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard athe word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, byou were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
14 awho1 is the guarantee of our inheritance buntil the redemption of cthe purchased possession, dto the praise of His glory.
