< Ephesians 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
īśvarasyēcchayā yīśukhrīṣṭasya prēritaḥ paula iphiṣanagarasthān pavitrān khrīṣṭayīśau viśvāsinō lōkān prati patraṁ likhati|
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
asmākaṁ tātasyēśvarasya prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya cānugrahaḥ śāntiśca yuṣmāsu varttatāṁ|
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.
asmākaṁ prabhō ryīśōḥ khrīṣṭasya tāta īśvarō dhanyō bhavatu; yataḥ sa khrīṣṭēnāsmabhyaṁ sarvvam ādhyātmikaṁ svargīyavaraṁ dattavān|
4 For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love
vayaṁ yat tasya samakṣaṁ prēmnā pavitrā niṣkalaṅkāśca bhavāmastadarthaṁ sa jagataḥ sr̥ṣṭē pūrvvaṁ tēnāsmān abhirōcitavān, nijābhilaṣitānurōdhācca
5 He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,
yīśunā khrīṣṭēna svasya nimittaṁ putratvapadē'smān svakīyānugrahasya mahattvasya praśaṁsārthaṁ pūrvvaṁ niyuktavān|
6 to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.
tasmād anugrahāt sa yēna priyatamēna putrēṇāsmān anugr̥hītavān,
7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
vayaṁ tasya śōṇitēna muktim arthataḥ pāpakṣamāṁ labdhavantaḥ|
8 that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
tasya ya īdr̥śō'nugrahanidhistasmāt sō'smabhyaṁ sarvvavidhaṁ jñānaṁ buddhiñca bāhulyarūpēṇa vitaritavān|
9 And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ
svargapr̥thivyō ryadyad vidyatē tatsarvvaṁ sa khrīṣṭē saṁgrahīṣyatīti hitaiṣiṇā
10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ.
tēna kr̥tō yō manōrathaḥ sampūrṇatāṁ gatavatsu samayēṣu sādhayitavyastamadhi sa svakīyābhilāṣasya nigūḍhaṁ bhāvam asmān jñāpitavān|
11 In Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will,
pūrvvaṁ khrīṣṭē viśvāsinō yē vayam asmattō yat tasya mahimnaḥ praśaṁsā jāyatē,
12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of His glory.
tadarthaṁ yaḥ svakīyēcchāyāḥ mantraṇātaḥ sarvvāṇi sādhayati tasya manōrathād vayaṁ khrīṣṭēna pūrvvaṁ nirūpitāḥ santō'dhikāriṇō jātāḥ|
13 And in Him, having heard and believed the word of truth—the gospel of your salvation—you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
yūyamapi satyaṁ vākyam arthatō yuṣmatparitrāṇasya susaṁvādaṁ niśamya tasminnēva khrīṣṭē viśvasitavantaḥ pratijñātēna pavitrēṇātmanā mudrayēvāṅkitāśca|
14 who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.
yatastasya mahimnaḥ prakāśāya tēna krītānāṁ lōkānāṁ mukti ryāvanna bhaviṣyati tāvat sa ātmāsmākam adhikāritvasya satyaṅkārasya paṇasvarūpō bhavati|
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
prabhau yīśau yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsaḥ sarvvēṣu pavitralōkēṣu prēma cāsta iti vārttāṁ śrutvāhamapi
16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,
yuṣmānadhi nirantaram īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ vadan prārthanāsamayē ca yuṣmān smaran varamimaṁ yācāmi|
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him.
asmākaṁ prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya tātō yaḥ prabhāvākara īśvaraḥ sa svakīyatattvajñānāya yuṣmabhyaṁ jñānajanakam prakāśitavākyabōdhakañcātmānaṁ dēyāt|
18 I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints,
yuṣmākaṁ jñānacakṣūṁṣi ca dīptiyuktāni kr̥tvā tasyāhvānaṁ kīdr̥śyā pratyāśayā sambalitaṁ pavitralōkānāṁ madhyē tēna dattō'dhikāraḥ kīdr̥śaḥ prabhāvanidhi rviśvāsiṣu cāsmāsu prakāśamānasya
19 and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength,
tadīyamahāparākramasya mahatvaṁ kīdr̥g anupamaṁ tat sarvvaṁ yuṣmān jñāpayatu|
20 which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms,
yataḥ sa yasyāḥ śaktēḥ prabalatāṁ khrīṣṭē prakāśayan mr̥tagaṇamadhyāt tam utthāpitavān,
21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. (aiōn g165)
adhipatitvapadaṁ śāsanapadaṁ parākramō rājatvañcētināmāni yāvanti padānīha lōkē paralōkē ca vidyantē tēṣāṁ sarvvēṣām ūrddhvē svargē nijadakṣiṇapārśvē tam upavēśitavān, (aiōn g165)
22 And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church,
sarvvāṇi tasya caraṇayōradhō nihitavān yā samitistasya śarīraṁ sarvvatra sarvvēṣāṁ pūrayituḥ pūrakañca bhavati taṁ tasyā mūrddhānaṁ kr̥tvā
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
sarvvēṣām uparyyupari niyuktavāṁśca saiva śaktirasmāsvapi tēna prakāśyatē|
