ܐܦܣܝ̈ܐ 2

1 ܘܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܟܘܢ ܘܒܤܟܠܘܬܟܘܢ

Also you—being dead in trespasses and sins,

2 ܒܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܗܠܟܬܘܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܗܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܥܠܡܝܘܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܪܝܫ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܐܐܪ ܘܕܪܘܚܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܡܬܚܦܛܐ ܒܒܢܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܛܦܝܤܢܘܬܐ (aiōn g165)

in which you once walked according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience, (aiōn g165)

3 ܒܗܢܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܐܬܗܦܟܢ ܒܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܒܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܒܤܪܢ ܘܥܒܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܒܤܪܢ ܘܕܬܪܥܝܬܢ ܘܒܢܝܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܪܘܓܙܐ ܡܠܝܐܝܬ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ

among whom we also all walked once in the desires of our flesh, doing the wishes of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath—as also the others,

4 ܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܬܝܪ ܒܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܚܘܒܗ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܐܚܒܢ

but God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,

5 ܟܕ ܡܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܢ ܐܚܝܢ ܥܡ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܒܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܦܪܩܢ

even being dead in the trespasses, made us alive together with the Christ (by grace you are saved),

6 ܘܐܩܝܡܢ ܥܡܗ ܘܐܘܬܒܢ ܥܡܗ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ

and raised [us] up together, and sat [us] together in the heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus,

7 ܕܢܚܘܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܕܐܬܝܢ ܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܘܒܤܝܡܘܬܗ ܕܗܘܬ ܥܠܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ (aiōn g165)

that He might show, in the ages that are coming, the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus, (aiōn g165)

8 ܒܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܬܦܪܩܢ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ

for by grace you are saved, through faith, and this [is] not of yourselves—[it is] the gift of God,

9 ܠܐ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܢܫܬܒܗܪ

not of works, that no one may boast;

10 ܒܪܝܬܐ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܐܬܒܪܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܛܝܒ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܗܘܢ ܢܗܠܟ

for we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus on good works, which God prepared before, that we may walk in them.

11 ܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܗܕܝܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܕܒܤܪ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܘܡܬܩܪܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܘܪܠܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܘܐܝܬܝܗ ܥܒܕ ܐܝܕܝܐ ܒܒܤܪܐ

For this reason, remember, that you [were] once the nations in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that called Circumcision in the flesh made by hands,

12 ܘܐܝܬܝܟܘܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܗܘ ܙܒܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܢܘܟܪܝܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܕܘܒܪܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܘܐܟܤܢܝܐ ܗܘ ܠܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܤܒܪ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܘܕܠܐ ܐܠܗ ܒܥܠܡܐ

that you were at that time apart from Christ, having been alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope, and without God in the world;

13 ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܪܚܝܩܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܩܪܝܒܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܕܡܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ

but now, in Christ Jesus, you being once far off became near in the blood of the Christ,

14 ܗܘܝܘ ܓܝܪ ܫܝܢܢ ܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܬܪܬܝܗܝܢ ܚܕܐ ܘܫܪܐ ܤܝܓܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ

for He is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of the partition of hostility,

15 ܘܒܥܠܕܒܒܘܬܐ ܒܒܤܪܗ ܘܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܦܘܩܕܐ ܒܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܒܛܠ ܕܠܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܢܒܪܐ ܒܩܢܘܡܗ ܠܚܕ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܘܥܒܕ ܫܝܢܐ

the enmity in His flesh, having done away [with] the Law of the commands in ordinances, that He might create the two into one new man in Himself, making peace,

16 ܘܪܥܝ ܠܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܦܓܪ ܥܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܒܙܩܝܦܗ ܩܛܠ ܒܥܠܕܒܒܘܬܐ

and might reconcile both in one body to God through the Cross, having slain the enmity by it,

17 ܘܐܬܐ ܤܒܪ ܫܠܡܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܪܚܝܩܐ ܘܠܩܪܝܒܐ

and having come, He proclaimed good news—peace to you—the far-off and the near,

18 ܡܛܠ ܕܒܗ ܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܩܘܪܒܐ ܠܬܪܝܢ ܒܚܕܐ ܪܘܚ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ

because through Him we have the access—we both—in one Spirit to the Father.

19 ܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܐܟܤܢܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܘܬܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܢܝ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܒܢܝ ܒܝܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ

Then, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens of the holy ones, and of the household of God,

20 ܘܐܬܒܢܝܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܕܢܒܝܐ ܘܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܪܝܫ ܩܪܢܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ

being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being chief corner-[stone],

21 ܘܒܗ ܡܬܪܟܒ ܟܠܗ ܒܢܝܢܐ ܘܪܒܐ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܡܪܝܐ

in whom all the building fitly framed together increases to a holy temple in the LORD,

22 ܟܕ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܡܬܒܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܥܡܪܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܪܘܚ

in whom you also are built together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
