Ephesians 1:12-14
New Catholic Bible
12 so that we,
who were the first ones
to place our hopes in Christ,
would devote ourselves
to the praise of his glory.
13 In Christ
you also heard the message of truth
and the gospel of your salvation,
and you came to believe in him.
In him,
you were marked with the seal
of the Holy Spirit
who had been promised.
14 That Spirit is the down payment[a] of our inheritance,
which we shall share
when God has redeemed us
as his own possession,
to the praise of his glory.
