< Ephesians 2 >

1 U biyi wa bina khu nimi latre, Bina zrren ni tu konumgbungblu yi.
Also you — being dead in the trespasses and the sins,
2 Bi na ta hu mgbyemgbyle cuugbungbhulu meme brji kimayi nitindu ni mi mrli bi hanton. (aiōn g165)
in which once ye did walk 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 Khi nata son nimi ndi biki, nita ti meme kpe bi wa kpa bu ni sona, ni ta tie ndu ukpa ni u sron mbu. khi na mrli bi fu na brunrji.
among whom also we all did walk 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 U Rji hi u wruhle don ani sonta kpukpome.
and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,
5 Wa khi na khwu nimi latrembu, a kata ti sisren nimi Kristi nitu zizi ma a kpata cuwo.
even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved, )
6 irji tata shiben ni Kristi na duta son ni bubu riri ni Kristi Yesu.
and did raise [us] up together, and did seat [us] together in the heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus,
7 Ni ngbungblu u ye ani tsrota zizi nitu Yesu. (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 Nitu zizi ba kpayi cuwo, nitu kpanyyeme, anatie bina, anhi nu.
for by grace ye are having been saved, through faith, and this not of you — of God the gift,
9 Ana ni ton dubina du ndjio na wru wo nisamna.
not of works, that no one may boast;
10 Khi hi kphi nundu u rhji wa a tieta ni mi Yesu Kristi duta ti kpe ndindi wa'a Rhji a yo sron ni sen ni tawu'a
for of Him we are workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God did before prepare, that in them we may walk.
11 Ta mre bina bi kora nikpa. bata yoyi di bi wa bana yojia na, yoji ukpa wadi indi mba nitiea.
Wherefore, remember, that ye [were] once the nations in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that called Circumcision in the flesh made by hands,
12 Ninton kima bana gayi ni kristi. Bina bira ni Isra'ila ni bitsri ni yo'nyu Rrji, ndi na he ni yo sron ni kperi na ndi nahe ni Rrji ni ngbu ngblu'a na
that ye 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 U zizan ni mi Kristi Yesu biyi wa bishe gbugban mu ni Rrji'a, ba jiyi ye whe wjre nitu yi Kristi.
and now, in Christ Jesus, ye being once afar off became nigh in the blood of the Christ,
14 Ahe si mbu. A ka ta tie ri Ni kpa ma ba zi nt'mo wandi a gata ni kpambu'a.
for he is our peace, who did make both one, and the middle wall of the enclosure did break down,
15 A wu du u tron da tie ndi sama nimikpa ma. Nda ji siye.
the enmity in his flesh, the law of the commands in ordinances having done away, that the two he might create in himself into one new man, making peace,
16 Kristi a katu ndi ha kabru nikpari ni kukron, nda wu meme fu.
and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,
17 Yesu ye ndaji si ni yuwu wa bina he gbu gban mu'a nda ji si ye nibi wa bahe whyewhyre me'a.
and having come, he did proclaim good news — peace to you — the far-off and the nigh,
18 Ni tu Yesu ki fe nkon wawumbu ni mi brji ndindi heni ntie.
because through him we have the access — we both — in one Spirit unto the Father.
19 Zizan biyi bi striba bina la bi tsri gana bi kpan ni mrli ko Rrji.
Then, therefore, ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens of the saints, and of the household of God,
20 Bi he biwa bi kpanci manzani ba anabawa. Baci yesu ni tuma wawuyi hi tita u me'a.
being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner -[stone],
21 Nimi mayi ba me kabi, basi babran na hekali nimi Baci
in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,
22 Ni mi mbayi biyi game bi kabi na bubu u son u rhji ni mi brji janji.
in whom also ye are builded together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
