并知道他向我们这信的人所显的能力，是何等浩大，
And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
就是照他在基督身上，所运行的大能大力，使他从死里复活，叫他在天上坐在自己的右边，
Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
远超过一切执政的，掌权的，有能的，主治的，和一切有名的。不但是今世的，连来世的也都超过了。

这福音传到你们那里，也传到普天之下，并且结果增长，如同在你们中间，自从你们听见福音，真知道神恩惠的日子一样。
Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
他救了我们脱离黑暗的权势，把我们迁到他爱子的国里。
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
