4But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
4But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
1 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.
3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath.
4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have been saved.
6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
2:4But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
2:4But God, (who is rich in mercy,) for his exceeding charity wherewith he loved us,
2:4but God, being rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
2:4but God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love wherewith he loved us,
2:4but God, being rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
2:4But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
2:4But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
2:4and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,
2:4But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
