Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will —
προορίσας ἡμᾶς εἰς υἱοθεσίαν διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς αὐτόν, κατὰ τὴν εὐδοκίαν τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ,
proorisas ēmas eis yiothesian dia Iēsoy Christoy eis ayton, kata tēn eydokian toy thelēmatos aytoy,
