Jo-Efeso 1
1 An Paulo, jaote mar Kristo Yesu kuom dwaro mar Nyasaye, andikonu un jomaler man Efeso, jogo maluwo Yesu gi chunygi duto.
PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuonwa kod Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo obed kodu.
grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Pak obed ni Nyasaye ma wuon Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, mosegwedhowa kod gweth duto mag chuny koa e polo kuom Kristo.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly things in Christ;
4 Kane pok ochwe piny, noyierowa kuom Kristo mondo wabed maler kendo maonge songa e nyime.
as he hath elected us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love:
5 Kuom herane, nowalowa chon mondo wabed yawuote kuom Yesu Kristo nikech mano ema ne chenrone kod dwarone.
having predestinated us for his adopted children by Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
6 Notimo kamano mondo ngʼwonone man-gi duongʼ mane ochiwo nono oyud pak, ma osemiyowa nono kuom Wuode mohero.
to the praise of the glory of his grace, whereby he hath made us acceptable in that beloved one;
7 Ne owarowa kuom rembe koweyonwa richowa koluwore gi ngʼwonone mathoth.
in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
8 Mano kaka mich ma Nyasaye oseolo kuomwa kuom ngʼwonone ogundho.
wherein he hath abounded towards us with all wisdom and intelligence,
9 Kuom riekone kod ngʼeyone, oseelonwa dwarone mopondo, mana kaka nochano chon ni notimrenwa kuom Kristo,
having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in himself;
10 ka kindeno nochopi nochano mondo oket gik moko duto manie polo gi piny e bwo loch achiel, ma en Kristo.
at the dispensation of the fulness of the appointed times to gather together under one head all things in Christ, whether they be things in heaven or things in earth, in him:
11 Kuome bende ema noyierowae mondo wabed jocham girkeni; kaluwore gi chenrone motimogo gik moko duto moluwore gi dwarone,
in whom also we have obtained our inheritance, predestinated according to the purpose of him who effectually worketh all things according to the counsel of his own will:
12 mondo mi wan mane wakwongo geno kuom Kristo, wadag ngima mamiyo ipako duongʼne maler.
that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first had hope in Christ.
13 To un bende nokwanu kaka joma oyie kane uwinjo wach mar adier ma en Injili mar warruok. Kane useyie kuome noketonu kido mar Roho Maler mane osingi,
In whom ye also trusted after ye had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, ye have been sealed with the holy Spirit of promise,
14 Rohono en singo manyiso ni wanayud girkeni nyaka chopi kinde mar warruok mar jo-Nyasaye, mondo duongʼne oyud pak.
which is the earnest of our inheritance, until the final redemption, acquired by him, come, to the praise of his glory.
15 Mano emomiyo, nyaka ne awinj wach yie ma un-go kuom Ruoth Yesu kendo kuom hera ma uherogo joma oyie duto,
For this cause I also, since I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love ye have to all saints,
16 pok aweyo goyo erokamano ni Nyasaye nikech un, ka aparou e lemona.
have not ceased offering up my praises for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
17 Asiko kakwayo mondo Nyasach Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, Wuon duongʼ duto omiu Roho Maler mamiyou rieko kendo mafwenyonu tiend gik mopondo mondo ungʼeye maber.
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, would give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation by the knowledge of him;
18 Bende alamonu mondo chunyu maiye oyawre mondo ungʼe tiend geno ma oseluongoue, ma gin girkeni mogundho mokano ni joma oyie,
the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he hath called you, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance for the saints,
19 kod tekone maduongʼ mokalo apima mosemiyowa wan joma oyie. Tekoneno nyiso tich mar tekre maduongʼ,
and what the transcendent greatness of his power in us, who believe, according to the energy of his mighty strength
20 ma nonyiso kuom Kristo kane ochiere oa kuom joma otho, mi omiyo obedo e bade ma korachwich e polo,
which he displayed in Christ when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly regions,
21 kuma oyombo loch duto gi teko gi telo gi nyalo kod nyinge duto minyalo chiw ok e ndaloni kende to kata e ndalo mabiro. (aiōn g165)
far above all principality, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come; (aiōn g165)
22 To Nyasaye noketo gik moko duto e bwo tiende, kendo nomiyo obedo wi kanisa;
and hath put all things under his feet, and hath appointed him head over all to the church,
23 ma en ringre Kristo. En e Jal mapongʼo kendo romo gik moko duto.
which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
