Ephesians 1
1 Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, that is, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
īśvarasyecchayā yīśukhrīṣṭasya preritaḥ paula iphiṣanagarasthān pavitrān khrīṣṭayīśau viśvāsino lokān prati patraṁ likhati|
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
asmākaṁ tātasyeśvarasya prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya cānugrahaḥ śāntiśca yuṣmāsu varttatāṁ|
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ;
asmākaṁ prabho ryīśoḥ khrīṣṭasya tāta īśvaro dhanyo bhavatu; yataḥ sa khrīṣṭenāsmabhyaṁ sarvvam ādhyātmikaṁ svargīyavaraṁ dattavān|
4 just as He[F] chose us in Him[S] before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him[F], in love,
vayaṁ yat tasya samakṣaṁ premnā pavitrā niṣkalaṅkāśca bhavāmastadarthaṁ sa jagataḥ sṛṣṭe pūrvvaṁ tenāsmān abhirocitavān, nijābhilaṣitānurodhācca
5 having predestined us into an adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, into Him[S], according to the good pleasure of His[F] will,
yīśunā khrīṣṭena svasya nimittaṁ putratvapade'smān svakīyānugrahasya mahattvasya praśaṁsārthaṁ pūrvvaṁ niyuktavān|
6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He graced us in the Beloved;
tasmād anugrahāt sa yena priyatamena putreṇāsmān anugṛhītavān,
7 in whom we have the redemption through His[S] blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His[F] grace,
vayaṁ tasya śoṇitena muktim arthataḥ pāpakṣamāṁ labdhavantaḥ|
8 that He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and intelligent design,
tasya ya īdṛśo'nugrahanidhistasmāt so'smabhyaṁ sarvvavidhaṁ jñānaṁ buddhiñca bāhulyarūpeṇa vitaritavān|
9 having made known to us the ‘secret’ of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him[S],
svargapṛthivyo ryadyad vidyate tatsarvvaṁ sa khrīṣṭe saṁgrahīṣyatīti hitaiṣiṇā
10 with a view to administering the fullness of the times, so as to bring all things together under one head in Christ—those on the heavens and those on the earth—in Him[S],
tena kṛto yo manorathaḥ sampūrṇatāṁ gatavatsu samayeṣu sādhayitavyastamadhi sa svakīyābhilāṣasya nigūḍhaṁ bhāvam asmān jñāpitavān|
11 in whom we were also assigned an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of Him[F] who works all things according to the decision of His will,
pūrvvaṁ khrīṣṭe viśvāsino ye vayam asmatto yat tasya mahimnaḥ praśaṁsā jāyate,
12 so that we should be to the praise of His glory, we who first trusted in the Christ;
tadarthaṁ yaḥ svakīyecchāyāḥ mantraṇātaḥ sarvvāṇi sādhayati tasya manorathād vayaṁ khrīṣṭena pūrvvaṁ nirūpitāḥ santo'dhikāriṇo jātāḥ|
13 about whom, to be sure, we had heard the true Word—the Gospel of your salvation; by whom, since you also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
yūyamapi satyaṁ vākyam arthato yuṣmatparitrāṇasya susaṁvādaṁ niśamya tasminneva khrīṣṭe viśvasitavantaḥ pratijñātena pavitreṇātmanā mudrayevāṅkitāśca|
14 who is the down payment on our inheritance until the release of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
yatastasya mahimnaḥ prakāśāya tena krītānāṁ lokānāṁ mukti ryāvanna bhaviṣyati tāvat sa ātmāsmākam adhikāritvasya satyaṅkārasya paṇasvarūpo bhavati|
15 Because of this, having heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,
prabhau yīśau yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsaḥ sarvveṣu pavitralokeṣu prema cāsta iti vārttāṁ śrutvāhamapi
16 I really do not stop giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
yuṣmānadhi nirantaram īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ vadan prārthanāsamaye ca yuṣmān smaran varamimaṁ yācāmi|
17 that the God of our Lord, Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the real knowledge of Himself,
asmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya tāto yaḥ prabhāvākara īśvaraḥ sa svakīyatattvajñānāya yuṣmabhyaṁ jñānajanakam prakāśitavākyabodhakañcātmānaṁ deyāt|
18 the eyes of your heart having been enlightened, that you may know 1) what is the hope of His[F] calling, and 2) what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
yuṣmākaṁ jñānacakṣūṁṣi ca dīptiyuktāni kṛtvā tasyāhvānaṁ kīdṛśyā pratyāśayā sambalitaṁ pavitralokānāṁ madhye tena datto'dhikāraḥ kīdṛśaḥ prabhāvanidhi rviśvāsiṣu cāsmāsu prakāśamānasya
19 and 3) what the exceeding greatness of His power into us who are believing, according to the demonstration of the extent of His might
tadīyamahāparākramasya mahatvaṁ kīdṛg anupamaṁ tat sarvvaṁ yuṣmān jñāpayatu|
20 which He exercised in the Christ when He raised Him[S] from among the dead and seated Him at His[F] right, in the heavenly realms,
yataḥ sa yasyāḥ śakteḥ prabalatāṁ khrīṣṭe prakāśayan mṛtagaṇamadhyāt tam utthāpitavān,
21 far above every ruler and authority and power and dominion—even every name that can be named, not only in this age but also in the next. (aiōn g165)
adhipatitvapadaṁ śāsanapadaṁ parākramo rājatvañcetināmāni yāvanti padānīha loke paraloke ca vidyante teṣāṁ sarvveṣām ūrddhve svarge nijadakṣiṇapārśve tam upaveśitavān, (aiōn g165)
22 In short, He[F] placed everything under His[S] feet, and appointed Him to be Head over everything in the Church,
sarvvāṇi tasya caraṇayoradho nihitavān yā samitistasya śarīraṁ sarvvatra sarvveṣāṁ pūrayituḥ pūrakañca bhavati taṁ tasyā mūrddhānaṁ kṛtvā
23 which is His body, the complement of Him who fills everything in every way.
sarvveṣām uparyyupari niyuktavāṁśca saiva śaktirasmāsvapi tena prakāśyate|
