Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:
Akwụkwọ ozi a sitere nʼaka mụ onwe m bụ Pọl, onye Chineke họpụtara ịbụ onyeozi Jisọs Kraịst. Ọ bụ unu ndị nsọ bi nʼEfesọs, unu bụ ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼime Kraịst Jisọs, ka m na-edere ya:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ka amara na udo nke sitere na Chineke Nna anyị, na Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst dịrị unu.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
Ka otuto dịrị Chineke, na Nna Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, bụ onye gọziri anyị site nʼinye anyị ngọzị niile nke ime mmụọ nke si nʼebe niile nke eluigwe nʼime Kraịst.
4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,
Dịka o si họpụta anyị nʼime Kraịst tupu a tọọ ntọala ụwa, ka anyị bụrụ ndị dị nsọ na ndị na-enweghị ịta ụta nʼihu ya nʼịhụnanya.
5 having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
O kpebiri ime anyị ụmụ ya site nʼihi Kraịst Jisọs. Ma o mekwara ihe ndị a niile nʼihi na ọ tọrọ ya ụtọ nʼobi, bụrụkwa ihe o zubere ime.
6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved.
Ka e si otu a too ịdị ebube nke amara ya, nke o ji obi ya niile nye anyị nʼime Onye ahụ ọ hụrụ nʼanya.
7 In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
Nʼime ya, anyị nwere mgbapụta site nʼọbara ya, bụ mgbaghara nke njehie niile anyị; dị ka ịba ụba nke amara ya si dị,
8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
nke o mere ka ọ babigara anyị ụba oke site nʼamamihe na nghọta niile.
9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
O meela ka anyị mata ihe omimi nzube ya, dị ka o si tọọ ya ụtọ, bụ ihe omimi o zubere ime nʼime Kraịst.
10 to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.
Nke ọ ga-eme ka o mezuo mgbe oge ya niile zuru, nke bụ ịchịkọta ihe niile nʼime ya, bụ ihe ndị dị nʼeluigwe na nʼụwa nʼokpuru Kraịst.
11 We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,
Nʼime Kraịst ka e mere anyị ndị nketa, ndị e bururị ụzọ họpụta na mbụ, dị ka atụmatụ onye ahụ na-arụpụta ihe niile nʼizuoke nke nzube na ebumnuche ya.
12 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ.
Nke mere na anyị, ndị buuru ụzọ nwee olileanya na Kraịst, ga-ebi ndụ nʼotuto nke ebube ya.
13 In him you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
Unu bụkwa ndị a gụnyere nʼime Kraịst mgbe unu nụrụ ozi nke eziokwu ahụ bụ oziọma nke nzọpụta. Mgbe unu kwenyere, a kara unu akara nʼime ya bụ akara nke nkwa ahụ bụ Mmụọ Nsọ.
14 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.
Nke a bụ ihe nketa anyị tutu ruo mgbe a rụzuru ọrụ mgbapụta nke ndị ahụ niile bụ ihe nweta Chineke. Ka e si otu a too ebube ya.
15 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you and the love which you have toward all the saints,
Nʼihi nke a, ebe m nụrụ akụkọ banyere okwukwe unu nʼime Onyenwe anyị Jisọs, nụkwa maka ịhụnanya unu nwere nʼebe ndị nsọ niile nọ,
16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
esepụghị m aka ikele ekele nʼihi unu, mgbe niile m na-echeta unu nʼekpere m niile.
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him,
Ana m arịọ Chineke nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst bụ Nna Onyenwe ebube niile, ka o nye unu Mmụọ amamihe na ezi nghọta ka unu nwee ike matazie nke ọma onye ọ bụ,
18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
ka o meghee anya nke ime mmụọ unu ka unu matakwa ụdị olileanya unu nwere nʼihi ọkpụkpọ ọ kpọrọ unu, na akụ, na ihe nketa dị ebube o nwere nʼime ndị nsọ.
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might
Na ịdị ukwuu nke ike ya nke na-enweghị atụ dịrị anyị, bụ ndị kwere ekwe, dịka ịrụsị ọrụ ike nke ike ya si dị.
20 which he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,
Nke ọ rụrụ nʼime Kraịst mgbe o si nʼọnwụ kpọlite ya mee ya ka ọ nọdụ nʼaka nri ya nʼebe niile nke eluigwe.
21 far above all rule, authority, power, dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age (aiōn g165), but also in that which is to come.
Ọnọdụ ya dị elu karịa ọchịchị niile, na ikike ọchịchị niile, na ike niile na ịchị isi niile, na aha ọkwa ọchịchị nke e nwere ike inye mmadụ, ọ bụghị naanị nʼọgbọ a, kama ma nʼọgbọ ọzọ na-abịa. (aiōn g165)
22 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,
O mere ka ihe niile dị nʼokpuru ya, meekwa ya ka ọ bụrụ onyeisi ihe niile nye nzukọ ya bụ chọọchị.
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
Nke bụ ahụ ya, ozuzu oke nke onye ahụ na-emejupụta ihe niile nʼụzọ niile.
