Ephesians 2:13-22

13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were ^afar off have been brought near ^bby the blood of Christ. 14 For ^che himself is our peace, ^dwho has made us both one and has broken down ^ein his flesh the dividing wall of hostility 15 by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ^fordinances, that he might create in himself one ^gnew man in place of the two, so making peace, 16 and might ^hreconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. 17 And he came and ⁱpreached peace to you who were ^jfar off and peace to those who were ^knear. 18 For ^lthrough him we both have ^maccess in ⁿone Spirit to the Father. 19 So then you are no longer ^ostrangers and aliens, ^{▼▼Or sojourners} but you are ^qfellow citizens with the saints and ^rmembers of the household of God, 20 ^sbuilt on the foundation of the ^tapostles and prophets, ^uChrist Jesus himself being ^vthe cornerstone, 21 ^win whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into ^xa holy temple in the Lord. 22 In him ^yyou also are being built together ^zinto a dwelling place for God by ^{▼▼Or in} the Spirit.
