Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
Krataa yi firi me Paulo a Onyankopɔn firi ne pɛ mu ayɛ me Kristo Yesu somafoɔ no nkyɛn, Meretwerɛ akɔma ahotefoɔ a wɔte Efeso, Kristo Yesu mu nokwafoɔ no:
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Adom ne asomdwoeɛ a ɛfiri yɛn Agya Onyankopɔn ne Awurade Yesu Kristo no nka mo.
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.
Momma yɛnna Onyankopɔn a ɔyɛ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no ase, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔnam Kristo so de honhom mu nhyira a ɛfiri ɔsoro abrɛ yɛn.
4 For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love
Ansa na Onyankopɔn bɛbɔ ewiase no, ɔdɔɔ yɛn na ɔyii yɛn wɔ Kristo mu sɛ yɛbɛyɛ kronkron a mfomsoɔ biara nni yɛn ho wɔ nʼani so. Ɔfiri ɔdɔ mu
5 He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,
hyɛ too hɔ sɛ, ne pɛ mu no, ɔnam Yesu Kristo so de yɛn bɛyɛ ne mma,
6 to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.
de akamfo nʼadom a ɛdɔɔso a ɔde akyɛ yɛn kwa wɔ ne Dɔ Ba no mu no.
7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
Ne mu na yɛnya ɔgyeɛ a ɛfiri ne mogya mu. Ne mu na yɛnya bɔnefakyɛ nso, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn adom mmorosoɔ a
8 that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
ɔde nyansa ne nteaseɛ nyinaa hwie guu yɛn so no teɛ.
9 And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ
Onyankopɔn nam deɛ Kristo yɛeɛ no so ada nʼanwanwa kwan no adi akyerɛ yɛn sɛ,
10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ.
ɛberɛ a wahyɛ no, ɔbɛboaboa abɔdeɛ nyinaa ano, deɛ ɛwɔ ɔsoro ne deɛ ɛwɔ asase so ahyɛ ɔbaako a ɔne Kristo no ase.
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,
Onyankopɔn yɛ deɛ ɔpɛ ɛberɛ biara. Ɛno enti na ɔnam Kristo so paw yɛn firii ewiase ahyɛaseɛ,
12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of His glory.
sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a yɛn a yɛdii ɛkan nyaa anidasoɔ wɔ Kristo mu no bɛyɛ nkamfo ahyɛ no animuonyam.
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,
Saa ara na ɛte wɔ mo ho nso. Ɛberɛ a motee nokwasɛm a ɛyɛ Asɛmpa a ɛmaa mo nkwagyeɛ no, mogyee Kristo diiɛ. Wɔde bɔhyɛ Honhom Kronkron no hyɛɛ mo nso wɔ ne mu.
14 who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.
Honhom no ma yɛn awerɛhyɛmu sɛ wɔde deɛ Onyankopɔn de asie ama ne nkurɔfoɔ no bɛma yɛn. Afei, yɛbɛde yɛn ho na wɔbɛkamfo Onyankopɔn ahyɛ no animuonyam.
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
Esiane yei enti, ɛfiri ɛberɛ a metee gyidie a mowɔ wɔ Awurade Yesu mu ne ɔdɔ a modɔ Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ no,
16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,
mennyaee aseda a meda Onyankopɔn ma mo no da. Mekae mo wɔ me mpaeɛbɔ mu,
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.
na mebisa yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Onyankopɔn, animuonyam Agya no sɛ, ɔmma mo Honhom Kronkron no a ɔbɛma mo nyansa na wada Onyankopɔn adi akyerɛ mo, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a mobɛhunu no.
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,
Mesrɛ sɛ mo adwene mu mmue na monhunu ne hann no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a mobɛnya anidasoɔ a ɛno enti ɔfrɛɛ mo no ne ahonya a ɛwɔ agyapadeɛ kronkron a ɛwɔ hɔ ma ahotefoɔ no,
19 and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength,
ne ne tumi a ɛso na biribiara ne no nsɛ ma yɛn a yɛgye die no. Ɛyɛ saa tumi nwanwasoɔ no ara na ɔdaa no adi
20 which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms,
ɛberɛ a ɔnyanee Kristo firii awufoɔ mu na ɔde no tenaa ne nifa so wɔ ɔsoro ahemman no mu no.
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)
Saa tumi yi korɔn sene mpaninnie ne tumidie, ahoɔden ne kɛseyɛ, ne diberɛ biara a wɔtumi de ma saa ɛberɛ yi ne ɛberɛ a ɛbɛba no mu. (aiōn g165)
22 And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church,
Onyankopɔn de biribiara hyɛɛ Kristo nan ase, na ɔde no ayɛ nneɛma nyinaa ti ama asafo no,
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
a ɛne ne onipadua. Ɔno ne deɛ ɔhyɛ adeɛ nyinaa ma wɔ akwan nyinaa mu.
