Ephet 2
1 Ahlana nangmi cun Ngmüimkhya lama nami thiki, isetiakyaküng, pyen käh ngja lü nami mkhyekata phäh ni.
You were made alive when you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
2 Acuna kcün üng am dawkia khawmdeka lam kse läk lü khawlivaa veki ngmüimkhya johitea uknak nami jah kcangnaki. Acuna Ngmüimkhya naw Pamhnam käh kcangnak vaia khyange cun atuha jah pinmanki. (aiōn g165)
in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience; (aiōn g165)
3 Mimi pi amimi akba ve khawi lü ni mtisa hlüeia mimäta pumsae ja mlungkawea titänga mi xüng khawikie. Mi mtisa lama avana kba Pamhnama mlungsonak mi khamei khaiea mi ngkawihkie ni.
among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
4 Lüpi Pamhnama a jah mpyeneinak nungmja lü a jah kphyanak pi dämduhki,
But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
5 pyen käh ngja lü Ngmüimkhya lama mkhyea phäh mi thih k'um üng ani naw Khritaw am xünnaka a jah lawpüi ni. Pamhnama bäkhäknak am küikyannak nami yahki.
even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
6 Khritaw Jesuh üng mi yümmatnak am ani naw jah mtho be lü ani am khankhaw pea atänga mi uk khai.
and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 Ahin a pawh cun law khai akcün tä üng mdan lü aktäa dämduhkia a bäkhäknak cun Khritaw Jesuh üng a kphyanak jah mdanki. (aiōn g165)
that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus; (aiōn g165)
8 Pamhnama bäkhäknak üng jumnak üngkhyüh küikyannak nami yahki. Ahin cun namimäta mtunkthaeinak am kya, lüpi Pamhnam naw ajüa aning jah yet ni, acuna kyase u pi käh camcah kawm.
for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
not of works, that no one would boast.
10 Mimi cun Pamhnama sepbeia mi kya lü Pamhnam naw Khritaw Jesuh üng yümmat lü akdaw mi pawh khaia a jah mhnünmceng päng ni, mi bilawh vai kunga a jah pitpyang pet päng ni.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
11 Nami ngtüi law üng khyangmjükcee, Judahe naw “vun am mawiki” aning jah tinak, amimäte naw ta vun mawikia ngsuikiea (Ahin cun khyang naw pumsa üng bilawhnak) ajana ihawkba nami ve khawiki ti cun süm ua.
Therefore remember that once you, the non-Jews in the flesh, who are called "uncircumcision" by that which is called "circumcision," (in the flesh, made by hands);
12 Acuna kcün üng Khritaw üngkhyüh nami thuki. Nangmi cun khyangmjükcea kya lü Pamhnama a jah xü khyanga pi am kya uki. Pamhnam naw Isarele üng khyütam a jah pet ngthupet üng pi am sängei lü Pamhnam jah äpeinak käh ta lü khawmdeka nami xüng khawiki.
that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
13 Tuh ta, ajana thuk khawi uki lüpi Khritawa thisen naw ning jah law püi lü Khritaw Jesuh üng nami yümmat law beki.
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
14 Khritaw amät naw dim’yenak law püi lü Judahe ja khyangmjükcee cun khyangmjü mata a jah pyan. Yea jah thawnsaki ja jah mkhyakia kpang cun amäta pumsa üng a kcimpyak ni.
For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,
15 Ani naw Judahea Thum, ngthupet ja ningsawe jah kpyakki, isetiakyaküng, khyangmjü nghngih cun khyang kthai mata kya lü a nih üng a jah yümmatsak. Ahikba va dimdeihnak a bi law.
having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;
16 Ani kutlamtunga a thiha phäh üng am ami ngkhawtnak mkhyüh lü kutlamtunga phäh üng khyangmjü nghngih cun pumsa mat üng jah ngkhawsak lü Pamhnama vei a jah law püi be.
and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by which he put to death their enmity.
17 Acuna kyase Khritaw cun law lü dimdeihnaka Thangkdaw cun ami vana vei — Pamhnam am thuki khyangmjükce ja Pamhnam am cähki Judahe vei sangki.
He came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.
18 Khritaw üngkhyüh khyangmjükce jah Judah mi van cun Ngmüimkhya mat am Pa Pamhnama maa mi law khawhki.
For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.
19 Acuna kyase, nangmi khyangmjükcee cun pe kce khyanga ja khina am kya ti u ki, nangmi cun Pamhnama khyange am atänga khankhaw khyanga thawn u lü Pamhnama canaa nami kyaki.
So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
20 Khritaw Jesuh amät cun tüneinak lunga kya lü nangmi cun tüneinaka khana ngsä he ja sahmae naw aning jah sawngsak ua kyaki.
being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;
21 Ani naw im avan cun kcüng lü Pamhnam üng pet vaia dawki temple ngcima dämduhsak lü Bawipa üng a ap ni.
in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
22 Ani üng yümmat lü Pamhnam cun a Ngmüimkhya üng a ve vaia nangmi cun khyang kcee am atänga ning jah sawngsaka nami kyaki.
in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
