Ŵaefeso 2
1 Ŵanyamwe kalakala mwaliji ŵawe mu utame wa mmbumu kwa ligongo lya ungaajitichisya Akunnungu ni sambi syenu.
You were made alive when you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
2 Katema ko mwatemi malinga ni wende wangalimate wa ŵandu ŵa chilambo chino. Mwampilikanichisye jwankulu jwa masoka ga machili jwa kwiunde, lisoka lyalikwatawala sambano ŵandu ŵangakwajitichisya Akunnungu. (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 Kalakala, noweji twaliji mpela ŵelewo. Twatemi kwakukuya tama syangalumbana sitwapagwile nasyo ni kutendekanya yeila pe yakuinonyelesya iilu ni lunda lwetu. Kwa ligongo lya kulandana kwetu nkupagwa, twaŵajilwe kulamulikwa ni Akunnungu mpela ŵandu ŵane.
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 Nambo Akunnungu ali ŵa chanasa chachijinji, ŵatunonyele uweji kwa unonyelo wao wekulungwa,
But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
5 namose patwaliji mpela tuwile mu utame wetu wa chimbumu, kwa ligongo lya sambi syetu, Akunnungu ŵatutesile ŵajumi pamo ni Kilisito. Kwayele tukulupwiswe kwa upile wa Akunnungu.
even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
6 Kwa kulumbikana kwetu ni Che Yesu Kilisito, Akunnungu atusyusisye pamo nawo kuti tukatawale pamo nawo kwinani.
and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 Ŵatesile yeleyo kuti alosye umbone wao wekulungwa wangaukupimika kwa iŵelesi yose ichiiche kwa litala lya unonyelo wakwe nkulumbikana kwetu ni Che Yesu Kilisito. (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 Pakuŵa, kwa umbone wa Akunnungu, nkulupwiche kwa litala lya chikulupi. Chelecho ngachikutyochela kukwenu mwachinsyene nambo uli ntuuka wa Akunnungu.
for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
9 Ngaŵa kwa ipanganyo yenu, kwayele mundu jwalijose akalikusya kwa chachili chose.
not of works, that no one would boast.
10 Akunnungu atugumbile ni kuŵa ŵasambano, ni kwa kulumbikana kwetu ni Che Yesu Kilisito, ŵatugumbile kuti tutame ni kupanganya yambone yaiŵichikwe chile ni Akunnungu tuipanganye.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
11 Nipele nkumbuchile imwatite pakuŵa kalakala ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵankuŵilanjikwa ŵangaumbala ni Ŵayahudi ŵakuliŵilanga ŵaumbele, kwa ligongo lya chindu chachitendekwe ni ŵandu mu iilu yao.
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 Kele katema ko mwaliji ngankwamanyilila Kilisito, ŵanyamwe mwasapulikwe kutyochela mu Ŵaisilaeli ŵaŵasagulikwe ni Akunnungu. Mwaliji achalendo pasikati jao. Nganinkola chachili chose pa chilanga cha Akunnungu chiŵachilanjile kwa ŵandu ŵakwe ni mwatemi pachilambo pangali chilolelo ni kwamanyilila Akunnungu.
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 Nambo sambano, nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu, ŵanyamwe umwaliji kwakutalika kalakala, nli pachiŵandi kwa litala lya miasi ja Kilisito.
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
14 Pakuŵa Kilisito nsyene atujigalile chitendewele chakwatenda Ŵayahudi ni ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi kuŵa ŵamo. Kwa litala lya kuchityosya chiilu chao mpela sadaka, ŵautyosisye umagongo uwaliji nkwalekanganya mpela likumba pasikati jao.
For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,
15 Ŵelewo ŵagatyosisye Malajisyo ga Chiyahudi pamo ni majiganyo gakwe kuti ŵaatende Ŵayahudi ni ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi kuŵa ŵamo nkulumbikana nawo, ni kwa kutenda yele ŵachiichenawo chitendewele.
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 Kwa kuchityosya chiilu chakwe mpela sadaka pa nsalaba, Kilisito aujonasile umagongo wao. Kwa nsalaba ajitesile mipingo jiŵili jo kuŵa ŵamo ni kwajilanya ni Akunnungu.
and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by which he put to death their enmity.
17 Nipele, Kilisito ŵaiche kukulalichila Ngani Jambone ja chitendewele kukwenu ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, ŵandi kwakutalikangana ni Akunnungu ni kwa Ŵayahudi ŵaali chiŵandi ni Akunnungu.
He came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.
18 Pakuŵa kutyochela ni aila yaitesile Kilisito, uweji wose, Ŵayahudi ni ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, tukukombola kwajaulila Atati kwa litala lya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jumo.
For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.
19 Nipele chitandile sambano, ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi nganimma achalendo sooni namose nganimma ŵakupita. Sambano ndi ŵandu ŵa nnango umo pamo ni ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu, ni sooni ŵaali mu nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
20 Iyoyo ŵanyamwe ntaŵikwe pa nsingi wauŵichikwe ni achinduna ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni Che Yesu Kilisito asyene lili luchanamila lwekulungwa lwakwimichila nyuumba.
being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;
21 Ŵelewo ni ŵakujilumbikanya nyuumba jose ni kujikusya mpaka jiŵe Nyuumba ja Akunnungu jajiswela jajityosyekwe kwa ligongo lya Ambuje.
in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
22 Nkulumbikana ni Kilisito, nomwe ŵakwe nkutaŵikwa pamo ni ŵandu ŵane wose, mme pakutama pao Akunnungu kwa litala lya Mbumu jwakwe.
in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
