²¹ Once you were alienated and hostile in your minds because of your evil actions. ²² But now He has reconciled you by His physical body^[a] through His death,^(A) to present you holy, faultless,^(B) and blameless before Him^(C)— ²³ if indeed you remain grounded and steadfast in the faith^(D) and are not shifted away from the hope^(E) of the gospel that you heard. This gospel has been proclaimed in all creation^(F) under heaven,^(G) and I, Paul,^(H) have become a servant of it.
