07:10Brothers and sisters,
07:12now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake,
07:16and in my flesh I am filling up
07:19what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ
07:22on behalf of his body,
07:24which is the church,
07:26of which I am a minister,
07:29in accordance with God's stewardship given to me,
07:32to bring to completion for you the word of God,
07:36the mystery hidden from ages
07:38and from generations past.
07:41But now it has been manifested
07:43to his holy ones,
07:46to whom God chose to make known
07:48the riches of the glory of this mystery
07:51among the Gentiles.
07:53It is Christ in you,
07:55the hope for glory.
07:57It is he whom we proclaim,
07:59admonishing everyone
08:01and teaching everyone with all wisdom
08:03that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.
