| ܦܘܠܘܤ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܒܐܦܤܘܤ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 1 |
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
| ܫܠܡܐ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܘܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 2 |
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
| ܡܒܪܟ ܗܘ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܪܟܢ ܒܟܠ ܒܘܪܟܢ ܕܪܘܚ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ | 3 |
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
| ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܓܒܢ ܒܗ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܬܪܡܝܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܡܘܡ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܘܒܚܘܒܐ ܩܕܡ ܪܫܡܢ ܠܗ | 4 |
just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and unblemished before him in love.
| ܘܤܡܢ ܠܒܢܝܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܫܦܪ ܠܨܒܝܢܗ | 5 |
He foreordained us for adoption as his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will,
| ܕܢܫܬܒܚ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܗܘ ܕܐܫܦܥ ܥܠܝܢ ܒܝܕ ܚܒܝܒܗ | 6 |
to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he bestowed favor upon us in the Beloved.
| ܕܒܗ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܘܒܕܡܗ ܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܕܚܛܗܐ ܐܝܟ ܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ | 7 |
In him we have redemption through his blood, the remission of our trespasses, according to the riches of God's grace,
| ܗܝ ܕܐܬܝܬܪܬ ܒܢ ܒܟܠ ܚܟܡܐ ܘܒܟܠ ܤܘܟܠ | 8 |
which he lavished upon us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
| ܘܐܘܕܥܢ ܐܪܙܐ ܕܨܒܝܢܗ ܗܘ ܕܩܕܡ ܗܘܐ ܤܡ ܕܢܤܥܘܪ ܒܗ | 9 |
He made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ
| ܠܡܕܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܡܘܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܕܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܢ ܕܪܝܫ ܢܬܚܕܬ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܒܐܪܥܐ | 10 |
as a plan for the fullness of times, to bring everything together in Christ, things in heaven and things on earth.
| ܘܒܗ ܚܢܢ ܐܬܓܒܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܩܕܡ ܪܫܡܢ ܘܨܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܟܠ ܤܥܪ ܐܝܟ ܬܪܥܝܬܐ ܕܨܒܝܢܗ | 11 |
In Christ we have obtained an inheritance, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his own will,
| ܕܢܗܘܐ ܚܢܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܩܕܡܢ ܤܒܪܢ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܗܕܪܐ ܕܬܫܒܘܚܬܗ | 12 |
so that we who were the first to hope in Christ, might live for the praise of his glory.
| ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܤܒܪܬܐ ܕܚܝܝܟܘܢ ܘܒܗ ܗܝܡܢܬܘܢ ܘܐܬܚܬܡܬܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܕܡܠܝܟܐ ܗܘܬ | 13 |
And when you heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in Christ, you were also sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
| ܗܝ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܪܗܒܘܢܐ ܕܝܪܬܘܬܢ ܠܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܚܐܝܢ ܘܠܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܐܝܩܪܗ | 14 |
who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of God's own possession, to the praise of his glory.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܗܐ ܡܢ ܕܫܡܥܬ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܒܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܕܠܘܬ ܩܕܝܫܐ | 15 |
For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
| ܠܐ ܡܫܬܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܡܘܕܝܘ ܥܠ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܘܠܡܥܗܕܟܘܢ ܒܨܠܘܬܝ | 16 |
I have not ceased giving thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers.
| ܕܐܠܗܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܒܐ ܕܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܢܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܕܓܠܝܢܐ ܒܝܕܥܬܗ | 17 |
I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation as you come to know him.
| ܘܢܢܗܪܢ ܥܝܢܐ ܕܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܡܢܘ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܩܪܝܢܗ ܘܡܢܘ ܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܝܪܬܘܬܗ ܒܩܕܝܫܐ | 18 |
I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know what is the hope of his calling, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
| ܘܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܝܬܝܪܘܬܐ ܕܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܚܝܠܗ ܒܢ ܒܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܥܒܕܢܘܬܐ ܕܬܘܩܦܐ ܕܚܝܠܗ | 19 |
and what is the surpassing greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great power.
| ܕܥܒܕ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܐܩܝܡܗ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܘܐܘܬܒܗ ܡܢ ܝܡܝܢܗ ܒܫܡܝܐ | 20 |
He exercised this power in Christ by raising him from the dead and seating him at his right hand in the heavenly places,
| ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܪܟܘܤ ܘܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܘܚܝܠܐ ܘܡܪܘܬܐ ܘܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܫܡ ܕܡܫܬܡܗ ܠܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܦ ܒܕܥܬܝܕ (aiōn g165) | 21 |
far above every ruler and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age to come. (aiōn g165)
| ܘܫܥܒܕ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܬܚܝܬ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܘܠܗ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܝܗܒܗ ܪܫܐ ܠܥܕܬܐ | 22 |
God put all things in subjection under Christ's feet and appointed him as head over all things for the church,
| ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܓܘܫܡܗ ܘܫܘܡܠܝܐ ܕܗܘ ܕܟܠ ܒܟܠ ܡܫܡܠܐ | 23 |
which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
