7whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.
8Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach unto the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
9and to make all men see what is the dispensation of the mystery which for ages hath been hid in God who created all things;
10to the intent that now unto the principalities and the powers in the heavenly [places] might be made known through the church the manifold wisdom of God,
11according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.
13Wherefore I ask that ye may not faint at my tribulations for you, which are your glory.
