Efisa 2
1 Nangmouh teh ahmaloe vah namamae yon hoi sakpayon e yonnaw dawk na due awh teh,
even you who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 kahli dawk kâtawnnae kapatuemkung, lawkngainae katawnhoehnaw koe atu thaw ka tawk e muitha ngainae patetlah het talaivan phung patetlah hote yonnae dawkvah na hring awh. (aiōn g165)
in which you formerly walked, according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air--of the spirit which now effectually works in the children of disobedience; (aiōn g165)
3 Maimouh pueng haiyah ahmaloe teh, ahnimanaw patetlah hring awh teh, ma takngainae dawkvah hring awh. Takngainae hoi lungngainae patetlah kâroe awh teh, alouknaw patetlah a lungkhueknae ka khang e lah o awh.
amongst whom we, also, were all formerly conversant in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh, and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as others.
4 Hatei lungmanae hoi kakawi Cathut ni, maimouh a lungpatawnae kalenpoung kecu dawkvah,
But God being rich in mercy, through his great love with which he loved us,
5 sakpayon e yonnaw dawk kadout awh e maimouh hah, Khrih hoi cungtalah na hring sak awh toe. Nangmouh teh a lungmanae lahoi rungngang lah na o awh.
even us, who were dead in trespasses, he has made alive together with Christ; (by favor you are saved; )
6 Hathnukkhu, Khrih Jisuh thung maimouh hah Khrih hoi cungtalah na thaw sak awh teh, kalvanlae tahungnae hmuen na poe awh toe.
and has raised us up together, and has set us down together in heavenly places with Christ Jesus;
7 Hethateh, maimouh lung na patawnae hah Khrih Jisuh thung a kamnue sak teh lungmanae hoi kawi e hah hmalae tuengnaw dawk a kamnue sak nahane doeh. (aiōn g165)
that he might show, in the ages to come, the exceeding riches of his favor in his kindness toward us by Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
8 Lungmanae dawk doeh yuemnae lahoi rungngang lah o awh. Hnokahawi sak e dawk hoi rungngang lah o e nahoeh. Cathut e poehno doeh ka tho.
For by favor you are saved through faith; and this salvation not by yourselves; it is the gift of God--
9 Ma ni kahawi hno sak e dawk nahoeh. Hatdawkvah apihai kâoup thai hoeh.
not by works, that no one may boast.
10 Hno kahawinaw sak awh nahanlah, Khrih Jisuh thung sak katha e lah o awh. Maimouh ni hnokahawi sak awh hanelah Cathut ni sut na rakueng toe.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, for which God before prepared us, that we should walk in them.
11 Hatdawkvah, nangmouh teh Jentel lah na o awh teh, kut hoi takthai dawk vuensoma lah kaawm e naw ni nangmouh teh vuensom ka a hoeh e naw ati awh e hah panuek awh.
Wherefore, remember that you, formerly Gentiles in the flesh, (those called the uncircumcision, by them called the circumcision in the flesh, made by hands, )
12 Hatnavah, Isarel miphun lahai na awm awh hoeh. Lawkkamnae hoi hai na kabet awh hoeh. Ngaihawinae hai na tawn awh hoeh. Talaivan Cathut laipalah na o awh e hah panuek awh.
were in the world at that time, without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the institutions of promise; having no hope, and without God:
13 Nangmouh teh ahmaloe vah na kahlat awh nakunghai, atuteh Khrih Jisuh thung Khrih e thipaling lahoi na hnai awh toe.
but now, in Christ Jesus, you were formerly far off, are brought nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 Bangkongtetpawiteh, na ka taransakkung rapanpui hah a raphoe teh miphun kahni touh hah miphun buet touh lah a coung sak toe. Bawipa teh maimae roumnae lah ao.
For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation;
15 Phunglawknaw dawk kaawm e kâpoelawknaw hoi kâkuen e kâlawk hah amae a tak dawk hoi a raphoe toe. Miphun kahni touh e hah miphun buet touh dueng e tami katha lah a sak teh a kâmaihawi sak toe.
having abolished, by his flesh, the enmity, (the law of the commandments concerning ordinances, ) that he might make the two into one new man, under himself, making peace:
16 Thingpalam dawk taran a raphoe teh, thingpalam lahoi hote miphun kahni touh teh tak buet touh thung Cathut hoi bout kâmaihawi awh toe.
and might reconcile both to God, in one body, through the cross; having slain the enmity by it.
17 Hote Khrih ni a tho teh, ahlanae koe kaawm e nangmouh hoi a hnainae koe kaawm e kaimouh teh roumnae kamthang kahawi hah na pâpho pouh.
And, having come, he brought good news of peace to you, the far off--to us, the nigh:
18 Hottelah Khrih lahoi maimouh roi teh, lungthin muitha buet touh lah o awh teh, Pa koe kâen thainae kâ hmu awh toe.
that, through him, we both have introduction to the Father, by one Spirit.
19 Hatdawkvah, nangmouh teh miphun alouke nahoeh toe. Imyin lahai na awm awh hoeh toe. Tami kathoungnaw e miphun lah na o awh teh Cathut e imthung lahai na o awh toe.
Now, then, you are no longer strangers and sojourners; but fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God:
20 Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, adu lah kaawm e gunceinaw hoi profetnaw e van vah, patuen pacoung sin teh sak e lah na o awh. Khrih Jisuh ama teh a takinlung lah ao.
having been built upon the foundation of the Apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the foundation corner stone;
21 Hote takinlung hoi koung ka kâkuen lah a roung teh Bawipa hanelah kathounge bawkim lah a coung.
by which the whole building, being fitly compacted together, rises into a holy temple of the Lord;
22 Hote hmuen teh Cathut ni a Muitha lahoi ao nahanelah nangmouh teh kaimouh hoi cungtalah sak e lah o awh.
in which you, also, are builded together, for a habitation of God by the Spirit.
