Ephesians 4:9-12 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

9. Now what does “He went up” mean, except that He first went down to the lower regions of the earth?

10. The One who came down is the same One who went up far above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.

11. He Himself gave some to be emissaries, some as prophets, some as proclaimers of the Good News, and some as shepherds and teachers—

12. to equip the kedoshim for the work of service, for building up the body of Messiah.
