Greetings,
I was reading Ephesians, and noticed a difference in how the ESV and NASB render Ephesians 1:9. Is the ESV completely missing the "pleasure" or "kind intention" from the Greek? I don't know any Greek, so I can't understand why such a decision would have been made. Thanks.
ESV: "making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ..."
NASB: "He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him..."
