Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
U Paulo, utumwe wa Kristi Yesu whagane no Ngolobhe, whabhabhehwelwe kwajili ya Ngolobhe bhabhaleho hu Efeso na bhali golosi mwa Yesu Kristi.
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ibule naibhe humwenyu jwinza yifuma hwa Ngolobhe u Baba wetu na ugosi Yesu Kristi.
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.
Ngolobhe na Baba wa Gosi wetu Yesu Kristi alumbelelwe. Yeyo watisaile katika insayo zyamumoyo, katika apantu pahumwanya mhati mwaKristi.
4 For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love
Shahusele umbwe ense, Ungolobhe atisaluye ate tete wheteha katika Kristi. Atisaluye ate ili tiwezye abhe tagolosu tasagatilalamishiwa whilongelela lyakwe.
5 He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,
Katika ulugano Ungolobhe atisaluye hwandilo whahuteje hansi abhanabhakwe whidala lya Yesu Kristi. Awombile ishi whisababu aganilwe awombe shila shanyonyilwe.
6 to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.
Zizifumila mkwakwe huje Ungolobhe awhinuliwa whiweneyi tuntumu ebhi shosho atishiliye wene whidala lya lugano wakwe.
7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
Alengane nu ganwe wakwe, tilinuwaushe ashilile mwidanda lyake, ukhowoshe wimbibhi. Tilinayo eli husababu utabhazivibule yakwe.
8 that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
Awombe wene ene abhe nyinji kwasababu yetu huhekima ni njele.
9 And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ
Ungolobhe awombile ieleweshe humwetu ela ilyoli yiyobhele humipango, alingane ni hamu yayaloleshe mhati ya Kristi.
10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ.
Umda gwimida gwasagakuli na mapongosoga kamilisheha mipango gakwe, Ungolobhe ayivibheha peka kila shintu shahumwanya na shaihumwanya yense muhati ya Kilisti.
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,
Mwa Kristi tali tisalulilwe na hutikusudile hata kabla yimunda. Ene yali yatokeene nu mpango wawomba ivintu vyonti whikweli lwimagano gakwe.
12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of His glory.
Ungolobhe awombile osho ili tiwezye abhe na huyilole nutuntumusi wakwe. Talibhawhande abhe nuda ndamazu muhati ya Yesu.
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,
Yali whida lya Yesu aje mwahe vwezye iizu lilyoli iizu lilokole wenyu whidala lya Yesu. Yali whamwene aje mweteshe na bheshe we umhuji gwa pepo ufinjilwe watawe umhusi gwa pepo ufinjilwe watasobhezelwe.
14 who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.
Upepo ndo dhamana yiupyano lwetu hadi atabhale lwalwaipatihana. Ene yahuilole nutuntumusu wakwe.
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
Alengane neli, afume umuda gwa nahevwesye aje ulweteho lwenyu muhati mwagosi u Yesu na ahusu iagano lwenyu whabhala wonti bhategwilwe kwajili yakwe.
16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,
Sigindeshile ahunsalifwe Ungolobhe kwaajili iyenyu na hubhatashe mu mputo
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.
Ilabha aje Ungolobhe wa Gosi uwetu U Yesu Kristi, ubabu wituntumusu, wituntumubu, aibhapela umoyo gwinjele, amakwinkule givfahamu wakwe.
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,
Ilabha aje amaso genyu gahumoyo gabhewhe ulukhozyo. Ohame amanye uwhi udanda mazu wakwiziwe whenyu, ilabha aje mumanye utabhazo wituntumu wapyane whakwe bhalipeka na bhala bhabhabhesheshewelwe kwaajili yakwe.
19 and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength,
Ilabha aje umanye ugosi uuzidile engovu yakwe mhati yetu yatiheleha. Ou ugosi ufuma na nawombe imbombo mongoro zyakwe.
20 which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms,
Ene ngovo yayawombile imbombo muhati ya Kristi wakati Ongolobhe lwazyosezye afume whazimu na hukhazye munyobhe yakwe yahundelo paapli pamwanya.
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)
Akhazizye UKristi pamwanya uhutali mugosi, imamulaka, ongovo, pakhale, na kila litawa lyaitawha. Akhazizye U Yesu sagatu hwakati ou hata humuda gogowewhenzu. (aiōn g165)
22 And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church,
Ungolobhe avitabhye ivintu vyonti pansi yimanama ga Kristi. Amombile umwene abhe litwe pamwanya yivintu katika ishibhanza.
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
Shibhanza lilibele gwakwe, ugolosu lwakwe lolo lumenyu ivintu vyonti mumadala gonti.
