New King James Version 17) that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18) the eyes of your understanding[a] being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints 15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:,

New King James Version 19) and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20) which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, , 21) far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is namednot only in this age but also in that which is to come. 22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Amplified Bible 15 For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people ,  16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers;  17 [I always pray] that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation [that gives you a deep and personal and intimate insight] into the true knowledge of Him [for we know the Father through the Son].  18) And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the [a]hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the [b]saints (God’s people),

not only in this age and world but also in the one to come. Amplified Bible 9 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength  20 which He [c]produced in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,  21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion [whether angelic or human], and [far above] every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], 9  not only in this age and world but also in the one to come.  22  And He [d]put all things [in every realm] in subjection under Christ’s feet, and [e]appointed Him as [supreme and authoritative] head over all things in the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers].
