< Ephesians 2 >

1 He[F] raised you up as well, when you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
και υμας οντας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν και ταις αμαρτιαις
2 in which you once walked, according to the Aeon of this world, the ruler of the domain of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of the disobedience; (aiōn g165)
εν αις ποτε περιεπατησατε κατα τον αιωνα του κοσμου τουτου κατα τον αρχοντα της εξουσιας του αερος του πνευματος του νυν ενεργουντος εν τοις υιοις της απειθειας (aiōn g165)
3 among whom all of us also used to conduct ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and of the senses, and were by nature children of wrath, just like the rest.
εν οις και ημεις παντες ανεστραφημεν ποτε εν ταις επιθυμιαις της σαρκος ημων ποιουντες τα θεληματα της σαρκος και των διανοιων και ημεν τεκνα φυσει οργης ως και οι λοιποι
4 But God—being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
ο δε θεος πλουσιος ων εν ελεει δια την πολλην αγαπην αυτου ην ηγαπησεν ημας
5 even when we were dead in our transgressions—made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)
και οντας ημας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν συνεζωοποιησεν τω χριστω χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι
6 and raised us up together and seated us together in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
και συνηγειρεν και συνεκαθισεν εν τοις επουρανιοις εν χριστω ιησου
7 in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, through His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
ινα ενδειξηται εν τοις αιωσιν τοις επερχομενοις τον υπερβαλλοντα πλουτον της χαριτος αυτου εν χρηστοτητι εφ ημας εν χριστω ιησου (aiōn g165)
8 For by grace you have been saved, through the Faith—and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God—
τη γαρ χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι δια της πιστεως και τουτο ουκ εξ υμων θεου το δωρον
9 not by works, so that no one may boast.
ουκ εξ εργων ινα μη τις καυχησηται
10 You see, we are His ‘poem’, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared in advance in order that we should walk in them.
αυτου γαρ εσμεν ποιημα κτισθεντες εν χριστω ιησου επι εργοις αγαθοις οις προητοιμασεν ο θεος ινα εν αυτοις περιπατησωμεν
11 So then, remember that once you physical Gentiles—called ‘uncircumcision’ by the so-called ‘circumcision’ (that made in flesh with hands)—
διο μνημονευετε οτι υμεις ποτε τα εθνη εν σαρκι οι λεγομενοι ακροβυστια υπο της λεγομενης περιτομης εν σαρκι χειροποιητου
12 that at that time you were apart from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
οτι ητε εν τω καιρω εκεινω χωρις χριστου απηλλοτριωμενοι της πολιτειας του ισραηλ και ξενοι των διαθηκων της επαγγελιας ελπιδα μη εχοντες και αθεοι εν τω κοσμω
13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have come to be near through the blood of the Christ.
νυνι δε εν χριστω ιησου υμεις οι ποτε οντες μακραν εγγυς εγενηθητε εν τω αιματι του χριστου
14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one and broken down the barrier of separation—the law with its commandments and ordinances—
αυτος γαρ εστιν η ειρηνη ημων ο ποιησας τα αμφοτερα εν και το μεσοτοιχον του φραγμου λυσας
15 having abolished the enmity through His ‘flesh’, so as to mold the two [Jew and Gentile] into one new man in Himself (thus making peace),
την εχθραν εν τη σαρκι αυτου τον νομον των εντολων εν δογμασιν καταργησας ινα τους δυο κτιση εν εαυτω εις ενα καινον ανθρωπον ποιων ειρηνην
16 and to reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross (by which He killed the enmity).
και αποκαταλλαξη τους αμφοτερους εν ενι σωματι τω θεω δια του σταυρου αποκτεινας την εχθραν εν αυτω
17 He came and proclaimed peace to us, being both far and near,
και ελθων ευηγγελισατο ειρηνην υμιν τοις μακραν και τοις εγγυς
18 because through Him we both have access to the Father, by one Spirit.
οτι δι αυτου εχομεν την προσαγωγην οι αμφοτεροι εν ενι πνευματι προς τον πατερα
19 So then, you are no longer strangers and aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of God's household,
αρα ουν ουκετι εστε ξενοι και παροικοι αλλα συμπολιται των αγιων και οικειοι του θεου
20 built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone;
εποικοδομηθεντες επι τω θεμελιω των αποστολων και προφητων οντος ακρογωνιαιου αυτου ιησου χριστου
21 in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
εν ω πασα οικοδομη συναρμολογουμενη αυξει εις ναον αγιον εν κυριω
22 in whom you also are being built together to become a habitation of God in spirit.
εν ω και υμεις συνοικοδομεισθε εις κατοικητηριον του θεου εν πνευματι
