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:
Pauro, mupostori waKristu Jesu nokuda kwaMwari, kuvatsvene vari muEfeso, vakatendeka muna Kristu Jesu:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
Nyasha norugare zvinobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu nokuna Ishe Jesu Kristu ngazvive kwamuri.
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;
Ngaarumbidzwe Mwari Baba vaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, iye akatiropafadza muchadenga nokuropafadza kwose kwomweya muna Kristu Jesu.
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,
Nokuti akatisarudza maari nyika isati yasikwa kuti tive vatsvene vasina chavanopomerwa pamberi pake. Murudo
5 having predestined us into an adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, into Him[S], according to the good pleasure of His[F] will,
akatirongera kare kuti tigoitwa vana vake kubudikidza naJesu Kristu, maererano nomufaro wake uye nokuda kwake,
6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He graced us in the Beloved;
kuti kunakisisa kwenyasha dzake dzaakangotipa hake muna Iye waanoda kurumbidzwe.
7 in whom we have the redemption through His[S] blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His[F] grace,
Iye watine dzikunuro maari kubudikidza neropa rake, iko kuregererwa kwezvivi, zviri maererano nokupfuma kwenyasha dzaMwari
8 that He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and intelligent design,
dzaakawanza pamusoro pedu nouchenjeri hwose uye nokunzwisisa kwose.
9 having made known to us the ‘secret’ of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him[S],
Uye akazivisa kwatiri chakavanzika chokuda kwake, maererano nomufaro wake wakanaka, waakafunga muna Kristu, kuti chiitwe pakukwana kwenguva,
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],
auyise pamwe chete zvinhu zvose zviri kudenga nezviri panyika pasi pomusoro mumwe, anova Kristu.
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,
Iye watakasarudzwawo maari, tarongerwa kare nhaka maererano nokuronga kwaiye anoita zvose mukusimbisa vavariro yokuda kwake,
12 so that we should be to the praise of His glory, we who first trusted in the Christ;
kuitira kuti isu, vakatanga kuva netariro muna Kristu, tive rumbidzo yokubwinya kwake.
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,
Nemi makaiswawo muna Kristu pamakanzwa shoko rechokwadi, iro vhangeri rokuponeswa kwenyu. Makati matenda, makaiswa rupau maari nechisimbiso, icho chivimbiso choMweya Mutsvene,
14 who is the down payment on our inheritance until the release of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
anova ndiye rubatso runotitsidzira nhaka yedu kusvikira rudzikinuro rwaavo vari vaMwari chaivo rwaratidzwa, kuti kubwinya kwake kurumbidzwe.
15 Because of this, having heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,
Nokuda kwaizvozvi, pandakanzwa nezvokutenda kwenyu muna Ishe Jesu uye rudo rwenyu kuvatsvene vose,
16 I really do not stop giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
handina kurega kuvonga nokuda kwenyu, ndichikurangarirai muminyengetero yangu.
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,
Ndinoramba ndichikumbira kuti Mwari waIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, Baba vokubwinya, akupei mweya wouchenjeri nokuzarurirwa, kuitira kuti mumuzive zviri nani.
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,
Ndinonyengeterawo kuti meso emwoyo wenyu avhenekerwe kuitira kuti mugoziva pfuma yenhaka yake yokubwinya muvatsvene,
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
uye nesimba rake guru risingagoni kuenzaniswa kwatiri isu vanotenda. Iroro simba rakaita sokubata kwesimba rake guru,
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,
raakaita muna Kristu paakamumutsa kubva kuvakafa akamugarisa kuruoko rwake rworudyi mudenga,
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)
pamusoro poutongi hwose noukuru, nesimba noushe, uye namazita ose angagona kurehwa, kwete panyika yazvino chete asiwo pane ichauya. (aiōn g165)
22 In short, He[F] placed everything under His[S] feet, and appointed Him to be Head over everything in the Church,
Uye Mwari akaisa zvinhu zvose pasi petsoka dzake akamugadza kuti ave musoro wezvinhu zvose nokuda kwekereke,
23 which is His body, the complement of Him who fills everything in every way.
iwo muviri wake, kuzara kwaiye anozadza zvinhu zvose munzira dzose.
