Ephesians 2:1-3

International Standard Version

God Has Brought Us from Death to Life

2 You used to be dead because of your offenses and sins ² that you once practiced as you lived according to the ways of this present world and according to the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit that is now active in those who are disobedient.^{[a] 3} Indeed, all of us once behaved like^[b] them in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of our flesh and senses. By nature we were destined for^[c] wrath, just like everyone else.
