Ephisus 2

1 Na tatkhialna uh te le na mawna uh te sung ah na thi zo uh a, tua pan in hong nungtasak kik hi;

He[F] raised you up as well, when you were dead in your transgressions and sins,

2 A bosa hun sung ah leitung ngeina bang in ahizong, hui sung a om vangletna a ukpa ngeina bang in ahizong in, thu ni ngawl tate sung ah na a seam thaa ngeina bang in ahizong, note na nungta ngei uh hi: (aiōn g165)

in which you once walked, according to the Aeon of this world, the ruler of the domain of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of the disobedience; (aiōn g165)

3 Eite zong ngualdang te bangma in a bosa hun sung ah cilesa deina sung ah i nungta a, i pumpi le i thinsung i uk teng i kicingsak hi; taciang cilesa ngeina bang in thin-ukna i tate i hihi.

among whom all of us also used to conduct ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and of the senses, and were by nature children of wrath, just like the rest.

4 Ahihang thuthiamna taw a dim Pathian in itna lianpi taw hong it hi,

But God—being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

5 Mawna sung ah i thi laitak in, Christ taw hong nungta khawmsak hi, thuthiamna tungtawn in ngupna na nga uh hi;

even when we were dead in our transgressions—made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)

6 Taciang hong tho khawmsak zo a, Christ Jesus sung ah van ah hong to khawmsak hi:

and raised us up together and seated us together in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,

7 Tua thu sia hongpai tu hun sung ah eite tung ah ama thuthiamna i a lamdang hauna sia a phatna sung ah Christ Jesus tungtawn in hong lak thei natu a hihi. (aiōn g165)

in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, through His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)

8 Banghangziam cile note sia thuthiamna hang in upna tungtawn in ngupna na nga zo uh hi; taciang tua ngupna sia note pan in hong piang hi ngawl hi: hi sia in Pathian letsong a hihi:

For by grace you have been saved, through the Faith—and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God—

9 Sepna hang hi ngawl hi, tua ahikom kuama ki suantak tu hi ngawl hi.

not by works, so that no one may boast.

10 Banghangziam cile eite sia Pathian i khutma te i hihi, Christ Jesus sung ah nasep pha te a seam tu in a ki bitphua te i hihi, tua nasep pha te sung ah i nuntak thei natu in Pathian in hong ciangtan hi.

You see, we are His ‘poem’, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared in advance in order that we should walk in them.

11 Tua ahikom a bosa hun sung ah note sia cilesa deina taw Gentile mite na hi uh a, cilesa deina taw in khut taw vunteap tan te in vunteap tan ngawl te, hong ci uh hi, ci phawk tawntung tavun;

So then, remember that once you physical Gentiles—called ‘uncircumcision’ by the so-called ‘circumcision’ (that made in flesh with hands)—

12 Tua hun in note in Christ na nei bua uh hi, Israel minam sung ah ki hel ngawl in peamta te na hi uh hi, taciang kamciam thu te pan zong peamta te na hi uh hi, taciang leitung ah Pathian na nei bua uh a, lametna zong na nei bua uh hi:

that at that time you were apart from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

13 Nidang in note sia a khuala mama na ah na om ngei uh a, Christ thisan tungtawn in hong naisak kik a, tu in Christ Jesus sung ah na om uh hi.

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have come to be near through the blood of the Christ.

14 Banghangziam cile Ama sia i thinnopna hi a, Ama in pumkhat in hong vawt hi, taciang i ki laklaw ah hong khak kidalna sia baltham zo hi;

For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one and broken down the barrier of separation—the law with its commandments and ordinances—

15 Ama in ki ngalvawtna, biakna ngeina sung a om thupiak te sia Ama pumpi sung ah bosak siat zo hi; banghangziam cile Ama sung ah mihing ni sia mihing thak khat vawt tu in kilemna vawt hi;

having abolished the enmity through His ‘flesh’, so as to mold the two [Jew and Gentile] into one new man in Himself (thus making peace),

16 Taciang thinglamte tungtawn in mihing ni sia Pathian tung ah pumpi khat hi tu a, kilemna vawtsak tu in, ki ngalvawtna that hi:

and to reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross (by which He killed the enmity).

17 Taciang a khualapi a om note le a nai na a om te tung ah Christ hongpai a, kilemna thu hong hil hi.

He came and proclaimed peace to us, being both far and near,

18 Banghangziam cile Christ tungtawn in ahizong, Thaa khat tungtawn in ahizong, Pa kung ah i tum thei hi.

because through Him we both have access to the Father, by one Spirit.

19 Tua ahikom, tu in note sia peamta te le ngamdang mite na hi nawn bua uh hi, ahihang mithiangtho te taw ngam khat i mi le Pathian innkuanpui na hi uh hi;

So then, you are no longer strangers and aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of God's household,

20 Taciang note sia sawltak te le kamsang te i phungkawng tung ah a kisa te na hi uh a, Jesus Christ ama cikteak sia a lianbel phungkawng a hihi;

built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone;

21 Ama sung ah innpi theampo phatak in ki zom dimdiam a, Topa sung ah biakinn thiangtho a hi tu in na khang khawm tek uh hi:

in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;

22 Ama sung ah note sia Thaa tungtawn in Pathian om natu in munkhat ah a kisa khawm te na hi uh hi.

in whom you also are being built together to become a habitation of God in spirit.
