Ephesians 2:9
King James Version

“Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
ἵνα
That, in order that, so that. Hina. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son in order that whoever believes in Him should not perish. The purpose of the cross is clear.

καυχάομαι
To boast, to glory, to exult. Kauchaomai. Let him who boasts boast in the Lord. The only legitimate boasting is about what God has done. Human achievement is a poor foundation.
