Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God: To God's people who are in Ephesus--believers in Christ Jesus.
2 Mi Pa Pamhnam ja Bawi Jesuh Khritaw naw ami bäkhäknak ja dim’yenak ning jah pe se.
May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Pamhnam ja Mi Bawi Jesuh Khritawa Pamhnam veia jenak mi mtheh vai u! Khritaw üng mi yüm mata phäh ani naw khankhaw pea ka Ngmüimkhya dawnak naküt mimi üng jah pe lü dawkyanak pi jah peki.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has crowned us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ;
4 Pamhnam naw khawmdek am a mhnünmceng ham üng mimi cun Khritaw üng xüngsei lü ania hmai maa ngcimcaih lü vecawh vaia a jah xü ni. Isetiakyaküng a mhläkphyanaka phäh ni.
even as, in His love, He chose us as His own in Christ before the creation of the world, that we might be holy and without blemish in His presence.
5 Pamhnam cun naw Jesuh Khritaw üngkhyüh a jah ca vaia a mkhyah päng ni, ahin cun ania xenak ja bünaka kyaki ni.
For He pre-destined us to be adopted by Himself as sons through Jesus Christ--such being His gracious will and pleasure--
6 A mhläkphyanaka Cakpa amdanga a jah peta phäh jomahkia a bäkhäknak mi mhlünmtai vai u.
to the praise of the splendour of His grace with which He has enriched us in the beloved One.
7 Khritawa thia phäh lätnak mi yahki acun cun mi mkhye mhlätnak ni. Pamhnama bäkhäknak hin däm da ve.
It is in Him, and through the shedding of His blood, that we have our deliverance--the forgiveness of our offences--so abundant was God's grace,
8 Acuna bäkhäknak am a mät naw ksingnak ja themnak jah peki.
the grace which He, the possessor of all wisdom and understanding, lavished upon us,
9 Pamhnam naw i nüm’yanki ti cun pawh lü ngthupki a bü cun Khritaw üngkhyüh kümcei khaia a mkhyah päng cun jah ksingsaki.
when He made known to us the secret of His will. And this is in harmony with God's merciful purpose
10 Ahina bünak cun akcün a pha law üng a küm law käna mce ja khankhawa veki naküt avan Khritaw lua kya lü ania kea jah ta law khai.
for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it--the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in Heaven and things on earth, to find their one Head in Him.
11 Anaküt cun Pamhnama nümyan ja a titänga ve lü Pamhnam naw a khyanga kya lü Khritaw am mi yümmat khaia jah xü hin akcük üngkhyüh ania bünak am a mkhyah päng ni.
In Him we Jews have been made heirs, having been chosen beforehand in accordance with the intention of Him whose might carries out in everything the design of His own will,
12 Khritaw mi na äpei makia mimia phäha, Pamhnama hlüngtainak mi mküimto vaia phäha kyaki.
so that we should be devoted to the extolling of His glorious attributes--we who were the first to fix our hopes on Christ.
13 Nangmi pi ngthu kcang, Thangkdaw nami ngjak naw küikyannak da ning jah lawpüi lü Pamhnama khyanga nami kyaki. Khritaw nami jumei ja Pamhnam naw a ning jah ka tia msingnak cun a ning jah bekhütnaka Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ning jah peki ni.
And in Him you Gentiles also, after listening to the Message of the truth, the Good News of your salvation--having believed in Him--were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit;
14 Pamhnam naw a khyange khyütam a jah peta kba mimi naw Ngmüimkhya Ngcim mi yahkie, acun cun Pamhnam naw a jah kümbekia mhlät cun jah ksingsaki. Pamhnam naw mküinak yah se.
that Spirit being a pledge and foretaste of our inheritance, in anticipation of its full redemption--the inheritance which He has purchased to be specially His for the extolling of His glory.
15 Acunakyase, Bawi Jesuh nami jum ja khyang ngcime nami ja mhlänak ka ngjak üng,
For this reason I too, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which prevails among you, and of your love for all God's people,
16 nangmia phäha a bäkhäknak anglät se mhlünmtai lü ka ktaiyü üngpi ning jah süm ni.
offer never ceasing thanks on your behalf while I make mention of you in my prayers.
17 Ka ktaiyünak ta mi Bawipa Jesuh Khritawa Pamhnam, jomahkia Pamhnam naw Ngmüikhya ning jah pe lü acuna Ngmüimkhya naw kthemnak ja amät ksingnak a ning jah pet vaia ni.
For I always beseech the God of our Lord Jesus Christ--the Father most glorious--to give you a spirit of wisdom and penetration through an intimate knowledge of Him,
18 Akvai nami hmuhnak thei vaia nami mlunga nghmawngnak vai Pamhnama veia ka ktaiyüki. A ning jah khünak üng äpeinak i ti cun nami ksingnak vai ja a khyange üng khyütam a jah pet ihlawka müncam phyakia dawkyanak daki ni,
the eyes of your understanding being enlightened so that you may know what is the hope which His call to you inspires, what the wealth of the glory of His inheritance in God's people,
19 ani mi jumeikia khana a johita khut bi cun ihlawka dämduhki ni. Mi khana khut bikia johit cun ktha mah säihki ni.
and what the transcendent greatness of His power in us believers as seen in the working of His infinite might
20 Acun cun Khritaw thinak üngkhyüh mtho be lü khankhaw pea a khet lama a ngawhsak,
when He displayed it in Christ by raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His own right hand in the heavenly realms,
21 Khritaw naw ngvaie, khankhawa anataknake, johite, bawie naküt, hina khawmdek khan däka am kya velaw khaia khana pi jah upkia kyaki ni. (aiōn g165)
high above all other government and authority and power and dominion, and every title of sovereignty used either in this Age or in the Age to come. (aiōn g165)
22 Acunüng Pamhnam naw anaküt, ania khaw kea a tak, anaküta khana lua kya khaia sangcim üng a pet,
God has put all things under His feet, and has appointed Him universal and supreme Head of the Church, which is His Body,
23 acun cun ania mtisaa kya lü ani üng kümceiki cun anaküt kümceisaki.
the completeness of Him who everywhere fills the universe with Himself.
