8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended upon high, he led [a]captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
9 (Now, in that he ascended, what is it but that he had also descended first into the [b]lowest parts of the earth?
10 He that descended, is even the same that ascended, far above all heavens, that he might [c]fill [d]all things.)

New International Version
8 This is why it[a] says:
9 (What does “he ascended” mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions[c]? 10 He who descended is the very one who ascended(C) higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)(D)
