Ephesians 3
1 By reason of this grace, I, Paul, am a prisoner of Jesus Christ, for the sake of you Gentiles.
ato heto rbhinnajātīyānāṁ yuṣmākaṁ nimittaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya bandī yaḥ so'haṁ paulo bravīmi|
2 Now certainly, you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which has been given to me among you:
yuṣmadartham īśvareṇa mahyaṁ dattasya varasya niyamaḥ kīdṛśastad yuṣmābhiraśrāvīti manye|
3 that, by means of revelation, the mystery was made known to me, just as I have written above in a few words.
arthataḥ pūrvvaṁ mayā saṁkṣepeṇa yathā likhitaṁ tathāhaṁ prakāśitavākyeneśvarasya nigūḍhaṁ bhāvaṁ jñāpito'bhavaṁ|
4 Yet, by reading this closely, you might be able to understand my prudence in the mystery of Christ.
ato yuṣmābhistat paṭhitvā khrīṣṭamadhi tasminnigūḍhe bhāve mama jñānaṁ kīdṛśaṁ tad bhotsyate|
5 In other generations, this was unknown to the sons of men, even as it has now been revealed to his holy Apostles and Prophets in the Spirit,
pūrvvayugeṣu mānavasantānāstaṁ jñāpitā nāsan kintvadhunā sa bhāvastasya pavitrān preritān bhaviṣyadvādinaśca pratyātmanā prakāśito'bhavat;
6 so that the Gentiles would be co-heirs, and of the same body, and partners together, by his promise in Christ Jesus, through the Gospel.
arthata īśvarasya śakteḥ prakāśāt tasyānugraheṇa yo varo mahyam adāyi tenāhaṁ yasya susaṁvādasya paricārako'bhavaṁ,
7 Of this Gospel, I have been made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which has been given to me by means of the operation of his virtue.
tadvārā khrīṣṭena bhinnajātīyā anyaiḥ sārddham ekādhikārā ekaśarīrā ekasyāḥ pratijñāyā aṁśinaśca bhaviṣyantīti|
8 Although I am the least of all the saints, I have been given this grace: to evangelize among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
sarvveṣāṁ pavitralokānāṁ kṣudratamāya mahyaṁ varo'yam adāyi yad bhinnajātīyānāṁ madhye bodhāgayasya guṇanidheḥ khrīṣṭasya maṅgalavārttāṁ pracārayāmi,
9 and to enlighten everyone concerning the dispensation of the mystery, hidden before the ages in God who created all things, (aiōn g165)
kālāvasthātaḥ pūrvvasmācca yo nigūḍhabhāva īśvare gupta āsīt tadīyaniyamaṁ sarvvān jñāpayāmi| (aiōn g165)
10 so that the manifold wisdom of God may become well-known to the principalities and powers in the heavens, through the Church,
yata īśvarasya nānārūpaṁ jñānaṁ yat sāmprataṁ samityā svarge prādhānyaparākramayuktānāṁ dūtānāṁ nikaṭe prakāśyate tadarthaṁ sa yīśunā khrīṣṭena sarvvāṇi sṛṣṭavān|
yato vayaṁ yasmin viśvasya dṛḍhabhaktyā nirbhayatām īśvarasya samāgame sāmarthyañca
12 In him we trust, and so we approach with confidence, through his faith.
prāptavantastamasmākaṁ prabhuṁ yīśuṁ khrīṣṭamadhi sa kālāvasthāyāḥ pūrvvaṁ taṁ manorathaṁ kṛtavān| (aiōn g165)
13 Because of this, I ask you not to be weakened by my tribulations on your behalf; for this is your glory.
ato'haṁ yuṣmannimittaṁ duḥkhabhogena klāntiṁ yanna gacchāmīti prārthaye yatastadeva yuṣmākaṁ gauravaṁ|
14 By reason of this grace, I bend my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
ato hetoḥ svargapṛthivyoḥ sthitaḥ kṛtsno vaṁśo yasya nāmnā vikhyātastam
15 from whom all paternity in heaven and on earth takes its name.
asmatprabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya pitaramuddiśyāhaṁ jānunī pātayitvā tasya prabhāvanidhito varamimaṁ prārthaye|
16 And I ask him to grant to you to be strengthened in virtue by his Spirit, in accord with the wealth of his glory, in the inner man,
tasyātmanā yuṣmākam āntarikapuruṣasya śakte rvṛddhiḥ kriyatāṁ|
17 so that Christ may live in your hearts through a faith rooted in, and founded on, charity.
khrīṣṭastu viśvāsena yuṣmākaṁ hṛdayeṣu nivasatu| premaṇi yuṣmākaṁ baddhamūlatvaṁ susthiratvañca bhavatu|
18 So may you be able to embrace, with all the saints, what is the width and length and height and depth
itthaṁ prasthatāyā dīrghatāyā gabhīratāyā uccatāyāśca bodhāya sarvvaiḥ pavitralokaiḥ prāpyaṁ sāmarthyaṁ yuṣmābhi rlabhyatāṁ,
19 of the charity of Christ, and even be able to know that which surpasses all knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
jñānātiriktaṁ khrīṣṭasya prema jñāyatām īśvarasya sampūrṇavṛddhiparyyantaṁ yuṣmākaṁ vṛddhi rbhavatu ca|
20 Now to him who is able to do all things, more abundantly than we could ever ask or understand, by means of the virtue which is at work in us:
asmākam antare yā śaktiḥ prakāśate tayā sarvvātiriktaṁ karmma kurvvan asmākaṁ prārthanāṁ kalpanāñcātikramituṁ yaḥ śaknoti
