# brought back from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus

"raised the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, to life"

# equip you with everything good to do his will

"give you every good thing you need in order to do his will "make you capable of doing every good thing according to his will"
