Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

who saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,

It was God who saved us, and from him we received our solemn call — not as a reward for anything that we had done, but in fulfillment of his own loving purpose. For that love was extended to us, through Christ Jesus, before time began,

der uns errettet hat und berufen mit heiligem Rufe, nicht nach unseren Werken, sondern nach seinem eigenen Vorsatz und der Gnade, die uns in Christo Jesu vor den Zeiten der Zeitalter gegeben,

Que nos salvó y llamó con vocación santa, no conforme á nuestras obras, mas según el intento suyo y gracia, la cual nos es dada en Cristo Jesús antes de los tiempos de los siglos,

Ele nos salvou, e chamou com um chamado santo; não conforme as nossas obras, mas sim, conforme a sua própria intenção, e a graça que nos foi dada em Cristo Jesus antes dos princípios dos tempos;

Ele nos salvou e nos convocou com um chamado santo, não de acordo com nossas obras, mas de acordo com Seu próprio plano e graça, que Ele nos deu em Cristo Jesus, antes dos tempos terem começado.
