and you he made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins

in 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 sons of disobedience

among whom also we all conduct ourselves in th 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

but god is rich in mercy because of his great love with which he loved us

even when we were dead in trespasses made us alive together with christ by grace you have been saved

and raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly places in christ jesus

that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us in christ jesus

for by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourself it i the gift of god

not of works lest anyone should boast
