διὸ
therefore
The connecting word Therefore introduces a reason-result relationship. The reason is that every believer has been given a spiritual gift. The result is that the Scripture says Jesus gave gifts to men. Use a phrase in your language that connects a reason to a result.
ἀναβὰς εἰς ὕψος
˓having˒_gone_up to height
Alternate translation: [When Christ went up into heaven]
4:8 He led a crowd of captives may refer to Christ’s victory over spiritual powers (see 1:21-22; Col 2:15), or to his capture of disobedient sinners and making them believers through the power of the Good News message.
• Christ gave gifts to his people (see Eph 4:11-12).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
