Ephesians 2
1 and you, being dead in your offences and sins —
Un to ne utho e timbeu ma ok kare kod richou,
2 in which ye once walked according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience: (aiōn g165)
mane udakie ka uluwo timbe piny, kod timbe ruodh pinyni man-gi loch e kor polo, ma bende tekone tiyo e chuny joma ok winj wach Nyasaye. (aiōn g165)
3 among whom we also all once had our conversation in the lusts of our flesh, doing what the flesh and the thoughts willed to do, and were children, by nature, of wrath, even as the rest:
Adier, chon waduto ne wachal kodgi, ka watimo gik mangima mar dhano dwaro, kendo waluwo gombo kod paro mag ringruok. Wan bende, e kitwa, mana kaka ji mamoko, ne wan e bwo mirima.
4 but God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love wherewith he loved us,
To kuom hera maduongʼ mane Nyasaye oherowago kod kechne mogundho,
5 (we too being dead in offences, ) has quickened us with the Christ, (ye are saved by grace, )
nomiyo wabedo mangima kuom Kristo, kata obedo ni ne watho nikech kethowa, osewaru kuom ngʼwono.
6 and has raised [us] up together, and has made [us] sit down together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,
Kendo Nyasaye nochierowa gi Kristo, momiyo wabet kode e duongʼ mar polo ei Kristo Yesu,
7 that he might display in the coming ages the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness towards us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
mondo eka onyisgo tienge duto mabiro mwandu mar ngʼwonone mokalo apima, ma wabiro yudo kuom kech mosekechowago kuom Kristo Yesu. (aiōn g165)
8 For ye are saved by grace, through faith; and this not of yourselves; it is God's gift:
Nikech kuom ngʼwono, useyudo warruok kuom yie, to ok nikech tim maber moro amora musetimo. En mich ma Nyasaye chiwo nono,
9 not on the principle of works, that no one might boast.
ok kuom tich ngʼato maber, mondo mi ngʼato kik sungre.
10 For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has before prepared that we should walk in them.
Mano timore nikech wan chwech Nyasaye, manochweyo kuom Kristo Yesu mondo otim timbe mabeyo, ma Nyasaye owuon ema nosechano chon mondo watim.
11 Wherefore remember that ye, once nations in [the] flesh, who [are] called uncircumcision by that called circumcision in [the] flesh done with the hand;
Kuom mano paruru ni chon ne un joma ok jo-Yahudi kuom nywol kendo ne iluongou ni “joma ok oter nyangu” gi jogo maluongore ni “oter nyangu” (mano motim e ringruok gi lwet ji);
12 that ye were at that time without Christ, aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
paruru bende ni kindeno ne upogoru gi Kristo, kendo ne uonge e kanyakla mar jo-Israel, bende ne un welo kuom singruok mar winjruok, ne uonge kata gi geno kuom Nyasaye e pinyni.
13 but now in Christ Jesus ye who once were afar off are become nigh by the blood of the Christ.
To koro, kuom Kristo Yesu, un ma yande un mabor, koro osekelu machiegni kuom remb Kristo.
14 For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of enclosure,
Kristo owuon e kwe marwa, nikech oseriwo jo-Yahudi gi joma ok jo-Yahudi obedo gimoro achiel kochiwo ringre owuon kendo osemuko ohinga mar sigu mane opogowa,
15 having annulled the enmity in his flesh, the law of commandments in ordinances, that he might form the two in himself into one new man, making peace;
kosetieko chike kod dwarone duto e ringre. Notimo kamano mondo ochwe dhano achiel manyien kuome owuon, kar ji ariyogo, mondo okelgo kwe,
16 and might reconcile both in one body to God by the cross, having by it slain the enmity;
kendo kuom ringruok achielni oriwgo ogendini ariyogi gi Nyasaye kuom msalaba mane oketho sigu mane ni e kindgi.
17 and, coming, he has preached the glad tidings of peace to you who [were] afar off, and [the glad tidings of] peace to those [who were] nigh.
Nobiro moyalo kwe ne un mane un mabor, kendo oyalo kwe ni jogo mane ni machiegni.
18 For through him we have both access by one Spirit to the Father.
Nikech kuome waduto koro wan gi yo mwachopogo ir Wuoro, kuom Roho achiel.
19 So then ye are no longer strangers and foreigners, but ye are fellow-citizens of the saints, and of the household of God,
Emomiyo, koro ok un welo kata jodak, to un oganda achiel gi jomaler duto, kendo jood Nyasaye,
20 being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the corner-stone,
moger e mise achiel mar joote gi jonabi; ka Kristo Yesu owuon e rariw.
21 in whom all [the] building fitted together increases to a holy temple in the Lord;
Kuome ema gedo duto oriwore kaachiel kendo dongo mibed hekalu maler man kuom Ruoth.
22 in whom ye also are built together for a habitation of God in [the] Spirit.
Kendo kuome ema un bende igeroue kaachiel mondo udok kar dak mar Nyasaye kuom Rohone.
