< Ephesians 4 >
1 As a prisoner in the Lord, then, I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received:
Au ulalao Lamatua ngga ue-tataon, losa au dadꞌi atahori bꞌui. De ia na, au ae kokoe nggi fo ama leo-lao no matetuꞌ tungga Lamatualain hihii-nanaun, huu Ana noꞌe nala nggi dadꞌi atahorin ena.
2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
Huu naa, hei musi misodꞌa miloe-midꞌae ralam, ma misodꞌa esa malole no esa ma esa sue esa. Musi miꞌitataaꞌ ma mihine esa no esa hihii-nanaun. Mete ma sia hei e, esa sangga hal no nonoon, na afiꞌ mimbedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ.
3 and with diligence to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
Sangga dꞌala tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ fo misodꞌa esa badꞌame no esa, huu Lamatualain Dula-dꞌalen tao hei dadꞌi esa ena.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
Huu Yesus Kristus atahori nara dadꞌi reu esa onaꞌ Eni ao hehelin ena. Ma basa se simbo Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dꞌalen fo isek a. Basa se ramahena neuꞌ a Lamatualain, huu Eni mana noꞌe se dadꞌi reu atahorin.
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
Hita Lamatuan, akaꞌ esaꞌ a; Hita tamahere tara, akaꞌ dalaꞌ esaꞌ a, fo bisa badꞌame to E. Ma basa hita simbo saraniꞌ, fo dadꞌi teu esa to E.
6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
Lamatualain, akaꞌ esaꞌ a, Ma hita Aman, akaꞌ Eni. Akaꞌ Eni mana parenda basa hita. Akaꞌ Eni mana naꞌabꞌue no basa hita. Ma akaꞌ Eni mana nasodꞌa nakandoo sia basa hita ralan.
7 Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Yesus Kristus bꞌanggi koasan fee neu hita ena, fo hita esa-esaꞌ talalao Eni ue-tataon.
8 This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led captives away, and gave gifts to men.”
Naa de Lamatuaꞌ Susura Meumaren nae, “Ana hene nisiꞌ mamana naruꞌ, fo natati sia naa losa nasenggiꞌ. Basa fo, no baliꞌ atahori nenehumu nalaꞌ ra naen seli, ma banggi-bꞌaꞌe hahambuꞌ fee atahori.”
9 What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended to the lower parts of the earth?
(Misinedꞌa dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ oi, “Ana hene”. Mete ma Ana hene, naa sosoan nae, lele uluꞌ a Ana onda nita raefafoꞌ nema.
10 He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
Dadꞌi atahori mana ondaꞌ naa, Kristus. Huu Eni mana hene baliꞌ sorga neu, fo mete-seꞌu basa-bꞌasaꞌ mana sia lalai no raefafoꞌ.)
11 And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
Kristus mana fee koasa neu atahori nara, fo ara ralalao ue-tataos fo Ana bꞌanggi basa fee se ena. Ana fee koasan neu ruma dadꞌi dedꞌenun, ruma dadꞌi, ruma dadꞌi manatadꞌa soaꞌ neu atahori nara, ruma dadꞌi atahori mahineꞌ mana ranori Eni atahorin, ma ruma fai dadꞌi mana nendi Hara-lii Maloleꞌ nisiꞌ mamana-mamana feuꞌ
12 to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ,
Esa-esaꞌ simbo ue-tataon fo tao rehehere Kristus atahorin nara, fo basa se bisa ralalao Eni ue-tataon. No taꞌo naa, basa hita mana tamahere neu Kristus boe maꞌadere,
13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ.
losa basa hita tamahere no ralaꞌ sa. Ma basa hita tahine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain Anan. Hita nda onaꞌ anadikiꞌ sa ena, huu hita tungga tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ dꞌalan ena, ma dadꞌi atahori mana nasodꞌa tungga basa Eni hihii-nanaun. Mete ma tasodꞌa onaꞌ naa ena, hita nda onaꞌ amba mana sobꞌo mbanaꞌ, fo lea e bee neu na ana tungga-tunggaꞌ a. Te mete ma mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra rema ranori dꞌala peko-lelekoꞌ, na nda ranggonggoa hita sa ena.
14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.
15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.
Te hita olaꞌ a maloleꞌ tungga matetun fee toronoo tara, huu hita sue se. De mete ma tasodꞌa onaꞌ naa sia sudꞌiꞌ a dalaꞌ bee, hita dadꞌi onaꞌ Kristus. Te Eni, Malangga mana mete-seꞌu hita.
16 From Him the whole body, fitted and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love through the work of each individual part.
Ma hita ia, onaꞌ Eni aon. Mete ma atahori lima-ein ma mbana-bꞌafan esa tao ues tulun esa tungga esa-esaꞌ ue-tataon, na, aon boe maꞌadere. Onaꞌ naa boe Kristus atahori nara. Mete ma hita esa sue esa ma esa tulu-fali esa, na, basa hita o boe maꞌadere.
17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
Rena malolole saa fo au ae ola ia, huu Lamatua ngga mana nafadꞌe au. Ama afiꞌ sudꞌi misodꞌa onaꞌ atahori nda mana nahine Lamatualain sa. Te saa fo ara taoꞌ naa, tunggaꞌ a nggoa nara.
18 They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
Ara laoꞌ leli, ona atahori laoꞌ sia maꞌahatuꞌ. Ara leo saranggaa ro Lamatualain, huu langga fatu ma nda nau rena E sa.
19 Having lost all sense of shame, they have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity, with a craving for more.
Ara nda rahine mamaet sa ena. De ara tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau nara, ma rasodꞌa manggenggeoꞌ. Te ara o nda medꞌa rae naa dai ena sa.
20 But this is not the way you came to know Christ.
Te Kristus dꞌala masodꞌan, fo hei minoriꞌ a, nda taꞌo naa sa!
21 Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—
Huu saa fo hei minori soꞌal Yesus Kristus, memaꞌ nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ. Neꞌo hei rena ena, to!
22 to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
Dadꞌi lao hela masodꞌa mbara mara! Te mete ma misodꞌa manggenggeoꞌ tunggaꞌ a atahori hihii-nanaun, hei nene pepeko-lelekoꞌ taꞌoꞌ a naa ena. Hei nda miꞌena hak sia naa sa ena.
23 to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
Te hela fo Lamatualain tao rala-dꞌudꞌuꞌa mara dadꞌi feuꞌ,
24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
fo ama dadꞌi atahori feuꞌ onaꞌ Eni mata-aon boe. Dadꞌi hei musi mitudꞌu rala feuꞌ, no ndoos ma meumareꞌ.
25 Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.
De ia na, miloeꞌ peko-lelekoꞌ leo! Esa olaꞌ ndoo-tetuꞌ no esa, huu basa nggita nenepaꞌaꞌ dadꞌi esa, ona, aoꞌ esa naꞌena ei-limaꞌ ma mbana-bafaꞌ.
26 “Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,
Mete ma miminasa, na afiꞌ miminasa losa ama tao salaꞌ. Malole lenaꞌ ama malolole leo! Afiꞌ mimbedaꞌ nasat losa relo mopo!
27 and do not give the devil a foothold.
No taꞌo naa, nitu ra malanggan nda bisa sobꞌa-dꞌou nala nggi sa. Afiꞌ fee ne hambu kakaꞌet mbei boe.
28 He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.
Atahori mana hiiꞌ a ramanaꞌo, miloeꞌ leo! Malole lenaꞌ atahori onaꞌ naa tao ues no maloleꞌ nendiꞌ lima hehelin, fo ana bisa babꞌanggi buna-bꞌoaꞌ no atahori mana tudꞌa lololeꞌ ra.
29 Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.
Mete ma olaꞌ, afiꞌ olaꞌ deꞌulakaꞌ, mae akaꞌ dedꞌea-dꞌekeꞌ sa a! Malole lenaꞌ olaꞌ maloleꞌ. Ma fee nenoriꞌ neu atahori, fo tulun tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ se, ma tao manggatee rala nara.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
Afiꞌ nameraꞌ Lamatualain Dula-dꞌale Meumaren ralan, te Ana sia rala mara. Ma Ana henggene hei ena nae, hei ia, Lamatualain enan. Dula-dꞌalen o fee tatanda nemehereꞌ oi, losa fai mateteꞌen, Lamatualain fee masodꞌaꞌ neu nggi fo misodꞌa mikindoo mo E.
31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.
De afiꞌ mimbedaꞌ ralaꞌ mo atahori laen! Afiꞌ mingginggio mbali atahori! Afiꞌ miminasa! Afiꞌ mitofa-miiu! Afiꞌ miꞌimuti atahori naran. Ma afiꞌ tao dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ laen ra fai!
32 Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.
Malole lenaꞌ hei esa sue esa, ma esa tao dꞌala maloleꞌ no esa. Hei musi liliiꞌ hendi atahori sala-kilu nara, ma fee ambon neu e, onaꞌ Lamatualain fee ambon neu sala mara, huu hei nenepaꞌaꞌ mo Kristus ena.
