Ephesians 1
1 This letter comes from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to God's will, to the Christians in Ephesus and those who trust in Christ Jesus.
Khritawa ngsä vaia Pamhnam naw a xü Pawluh üngkhyüh ni — Sitih lü Khritaw Jesuha hnu läkie Epheta veki Pamhnama khyange veia ni.
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mi Pa Pamhnam ja Bawi Jesuh Khritaw naw ami bäkhäknak ja dim’yenak ning jah pe se.
3 Praise God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with all that's spiritually good in the heavenly world,
Pamhnam ja Mi Bawi Jesuh Khritawa Pamhnam veia jenak mi mtheh vai u! Khritaw üng mi yüm mata phäh ani naw khankhaw pea ka Ngmüimkhya dawnak naküt mimi üng jah pe lü dawkyanak pi jah peki.
4 just as he chose us to be in him before the beginning of this world, so that in love we could be holy and without fault before him.
Pamhnam naw khawmdek am a mhnünmceng ham üng mimi cun Khritaw üng xüngsei lü ania hmai maa ngcimcaih lü vecawh vaia a jah xü ni. Isetiakyaküng a mhläkphyanaka phäh ni.
5 He decided in advance to adopt us as his children, working through Jesus Christ to bring us to himself. He was happy to do this because this is what he wanted.
Pamhnam cun naw Jesuh Khritaw üngkhyüh a jah ca vaia a mkhyah päng ni, ahin cun ania xenak ja bünaka kyaki ni.
6 So we praise him for his glorious grace that he so kindly gave us in his beloved Son.
A mhläkphyanaka Cakpa amdanga a jah peta phäh jomahkia a bäkhäknak mi mhlünmtai vai u.
7 Through him we gain salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins as a result of his priceless grace
Khritawa thia phäh lätnak mi yahki acun cun mi mkhye mhlätnak ni. Pamhnama bäkhäknak hin däm da ve.
8 that he so generously provided for us, together with all wisdom and understanding.
Acuna bäkhäknak am a mät naw ksingnak ja themnak jah peki.
9 He revealed to us his previously-hidden will through which he was happy to pursue his plan
Pamhnam naw i nüm’yanki ti cun pawh lü ngthupki a bü cun Khritaw üngkhyüh kümcei khaia a mkhyah päng cun jah ksingsaki.
10 at the appropriate time to bring everyone together in Christ—those in heaven and those on the earth.
Ahina bünak cun akcün a pha law üng a küm law käna mce ja khankhawa veki naküt avan Khritaw lua kya lü ania kea jah ta law khai.
11 In him—we were chosen beforehand, according to the plan of the one who is working everything out according to his will,
Anaküt cun Pamhnama nümyan ja a titänga ve lü Pamhnam naw a khyanga kya lü Khritaw am mi yümmat khaia jah xü hin akcük üngkhyüh ania bünak am a mkhyah päng ni.
12 for the purpose that we who were the first to hope in Christ could praise his glory.
Khritaw mi na äpei makia mimia phäha, Pamhnama hlüngtainak mi mküimto vaia phäha kyaki.
13 In him—you too have heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation. In him—because you trusted in him you were stamped with the seal of the Holy Spirit's promise,
Nangmi pi ngthu kcang, Thangkdaw nami ngjak naw küikyannak da ning jah lawpüi lü Pamhnama khyanga nami kyaki. Khritaw nami jumei ja Pamhnam naw a ning jah ka tia msingnak cun a ning jah bekhütnaka Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ning jah peki ni.
14 which is a down-payment on our inheritance when God redeems what he's kept safe for himself—us, who will praise and give him glory!
Pamhnam naw a khyange khyütam a jah peta kba mimi naw Ngmüimkhya Ngcim mi yahkie, acun cun Pamhnam naw a jah kümbekia mhlät cun jah ksingsaki. Pamhnam naw mküinak yah se.
15 That's the reason, because I've heard of your trust in the Lord Jesus and the love that you have for all Christians,
Acunakyase, Bawi Jesuh nami jum ja khyang ngcime nami ja mhlänak ka ngjak üng,
16 why I never stop thanking God for you and remember you in my prayers.
nangmia phäha a bäkhäknak anglät se mhlünmtai lü ka ktaiyü üngpi ning jah süm ni.
17 I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom to see and know him as he really is.
Ka ktaiyünak ta mi Bawipa Jesuh Khritawa Pamhnam, jomahkia Pamhnam naw Ngmüikhya ning jah pe lü acuna Ngmüimkhya naw kthemnak ja amät ksingnak a ning jah pet vaia ni.
18 May your minds be enlightened so you can understand the hope he's called you to— the glorious riches he promises as an inheritance to his holy people.
Akvai nami hmuhnak thei vaia nami mlunga nghmawngnak vai Pamhnama veia ka ktaiyüki. A ning jah khünak üng äpeinak i ti cun nami ksingnak vai ja a khyange üng khyütam a jah pet ihlawka müncam phyakia dawkyanak daki ni,
19 May you also understand God's amazing power
ani mi jumeikia khana a johita khut bi cun ihlawka dämduhki ni. Mi khana khut bikia johit cun ktha mah säihki ni.
20 that he demonstrated in raising Christ from the dead. God seated Christ at his right hand in heaven,
Acun cun Khritaw thinak üngkhyüh mtho be lü khankhaw pea a khet lama a ngawhsak,
21 far above any other ruler, authority, power, or lord, or any leader with all their titles—not only in this world, but also in the coming world too. (aiōn g165)
Khritaw naw ngvaie, khankhawa anataknake, johite, bawie naküt, hina khawmdek khan däka am kya velaw khaia khana pi jah upkia kyaki ni. (aiōn g165)
22 God has made everything subject to the authority of Christ, and has given him the responsibility as head over everything for the church,
Acunüng Pamhnam naw anaküt, ania khaw kea a tak, anaküta khana lua kya khaia sangcim üng a pet,
23 which is his body, filled full and made complete by Christ, who fills and brings everything to completion.
acun cun ania mtisaa kya lü ani üng kümceiki cun anaküt kümceisaki.
