Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
Ẹ̀yin ọmọ, ẹ máa gbọ́ tí àwọn òbí i yín nínú Olúwa, nítorí pé èyí ní ó tọ́.
2 Honor your father and your mother, which is the first commandment with a promise,
“Bọ̀wọ̀ fún baba àti ìyá rẹ,” èyí tí í ṣe òfin kìn-ín-ní pẹ̀lú ìlérí,
3 that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth.
“ki ó lé dára fún ọ, àti kí ìwọ lè wà pẹ́ ní ayé.”
4 And you fathers, do not provoke your children to anger: but bring them up in the instruction and discipline of the Lord.
Àti ẹ̀yin baba, ẹ má ṣe mú àwọn ọmọ yín bínú, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ máa tọ́ wọn nínú ẹ̀kọ́ àti ìkìlọ̀ Olúwa.
5 Servants, be subject to your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to the Christ;
Ẹ̀yin ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀, ẹ máa gbọ́ ti àwọn olúwa yín nípá ti ara, pẹ̀lú ìbẹ̀rù àti ìwárìrì, nínú òtítọ́ ọkàn yín, bí ẹni pé sí Kristi.
6 not with eye-service, as pleasing men, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the soul;
Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ sí wọn lẹ́nu kì í ṣe láti rí ojúrere wọn nígbà tí ojú wọn bá ń bẹ lára rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹrú Kristi, ní ṣíṣe ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run láti inú ọkàn rẹ.
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord, and not as to men;
Ẹ máa fi gbogbo ọkàn yin ṣe iṣẹ́ ìsìn bí sí Olúwa, kì í sí ṣe sí ènìyàn.
8 knowing that whatever good any one does, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he is a servant or a freeman.
Bí ẹ̀yin ti mọ̀ pé ohun rere tí olúkúlùkù bá ṣe òun náà ní yóò sí gbà padà lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, ìbá à ṣe ẹrú, tàbí òmìnira.
9 And you masters, do the same things to them, leaving off threatening, knowing that you yourselves have a master in heaven, and there is no respect of persons with him.
Àti ẹ̀yin ọ̀gá, ẹ máa ṣe irú ìtọ́jú kan náà sí àwọn ẹrú yin, ẹ máa dín ìbẹ̀rù yín kù bí ẹ̀yin ti mọ̀ pé Olúwa ẹ̀yin tìkára yín ń bẹ ní ọ̀run; kò sì ṣí ojúsàájú ènìyàn lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in his mighty power.
Ní àkótán, ara mí, ẹ jẹ́ alágbára nínú Olúwa, àti nínú agbára ipá rẹ̀.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the wiles of the devil:
Ẹ gbé gbogbo ìhámọ́ra Ọlọ́run wọ̀, kí ẹ̀yin lè kọ ojú ìjà sí àrékérekè èṣù.
12 for our conflict is not with flesh and blood, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the rulers of the darkness of this world, with the wicked spirits in the heavenly regions. (aiōn g165)
Nítorí pé kì í ṣe ẹ̀jẹ̀ àti ẹran-ara ní àwa ń bá jìjàkadì, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìjòyè, àwọn ọlọ́lá, àwọn aláṣẹ ìbí òkùnkùn ayé yìí, àti àwọn ẹ̀mí búburú ní ojú ọ̀run. (aiōn g165)
13 Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand them in the evil day, and having overcome them all, to stand firm.
Nítorí náà, ẹ gbé gbogbo ìhámọ́ra Ọlọ́run wọ̀, kí ẹ̀yin lè dúró tiiri sí ọjọ́ ibi, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá sì ti ṣe ohun gbogbo tan kí ẹ sì dúró.
14 Stand, therefore, having your loins girded about with truth, and wearing the breastplate of righteousness,
Ẹ dúró nítorí náà lẹ́yìn tí ẹ fi àmùrè òtítọ́ dì ẹ̀gbẹ́ yin, tí ẹ sì ti di ìgbàyà òdodo mọ́ra.
15 and having your feet shod with that preparation for defense supplied by the gospel of peace;
Tí ẹ sì ti fi ìmúra ìyìnrere àlàáfíà wọ ẹsẹ̀ yín ní bàtà.
16 taking up, over all, the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one:
Ní àfikún, ẹ mú àpáta ìgbàgbọ́, nípa èyí tí ẹ̀yin lè máa fi paná gbogbo ọfà iná ẹni ibi náà.
17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Kí ẹ sì mú àṣíborí ìgbàlà, àti idà ẹ̀mí, tí í ṣe ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run.
18 praying with all prayer and supplication, at all times, in the Spirit; and to this end being watchful in all perseverance, and supplication for all the saints:
Pẹ̀lú gbogbo àdúrà àti ẹ̀bẹ̀ ni kí ẹ máa gbàdúrà nígbà gbogbo nínú Ẹ̀mí, kí ẹ sì máa ṣọ́ra sí i nínú ìdúró ṣinṣin gbogbo àti ẹ̀bẹ̀ fún gbogbo ènìyàn mímọ́.
19 and for me, that speech may be given me, in opening my mouth with boldness, that I may make known the mystery of the gospel,
Kí ẹ sì máa gbàdúrà fún mí pẹ̀lú, kí Ọlọ́run lè fún mí ní ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó yẹ kí èmi lè máa fì ìgboyà sọ àwọn ohun ìjìnlẹ̀ ìyìnrere náà.
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
Nítorí èyí tí èmí jẹ́ ikọ̀ nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n, kí èmi lè máa fi ìgboyà sọ̀rọ̀ nínú rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti tọ́ fún mí láti máa sọ.
21 But that you, also, may know my affairs, how I do, Tychicus, my beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known all things to you;
Tikiku, arákùnrin olùfẹ́ àti ìránṣẹ́ olóòtítọ́ nínú Olúwa yóò sọ ohun gbogbo dí mí mọ̀ fún yín, kí ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú lè mọ̀ bí nǹkan ti rí fún mí àti bí mo tí ń ṣe sí.
22 him I have sent to you for this very purpose, that you may know our affairs, and that he may comfort your hearts.
Ẹni tí mo rán sí yín nítorí èyí náà, kí ẹ lè mọ̀ bí a tí wà, kì òun lè tu ọkàn yín nínú.
23 Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Àlàáfíà fún àwọn ará, àti ìfẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìgbàgbọ́, láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run Baba wà, àti Olúwa wà Jesu Kristi.
24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.
Kí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ wà pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn tí ó fẹ́ Olúwa wa Jesu Kristi ni àìṣẹ̀tàn.
