Ephesians 2
1 At one time you were dead in your sins and evil actions,
puraa yuuyam aparaadhai. h paapai"sca m. rtaa. h santastaanyaacaranta ihalokasya sa. msaaraanusaare. naakaa"saraajyasyaadhipatim (aiōn g165)
2 living your lives according to the ways of the world, under the control of the devil, whose spirit is at work in those who disobey God. (aiōn g165)
arthata. h saampratam aaj naala"nghiva. m"se. su karmmakaari. nam aatmaanam anvavrajata|
3 All of us were once like that, our behavior determined by the desires of our sinful human nature and our evil way of thinking. Like everyone else, in our nature we were children of anger.

4 But God in his generous mercy, because of the amazing love he had for us
kintu karu. naanidhirii"svaro yena mahaapremnaasmaan dayitavaan
5 even while we were dead in our sins, has made us alive together with Christ. Trusting in him has saved you!
tasya svapremno baahulyaad aparaadhai rm. rtaanapyasmaan khrii. s.tena saha jiivitavaan yato. anugrahaad yuuya. m paritraa. na. m praaptaa. h|
6 He raised us up with Christ, and in Christ Jesus seated us with him in heaven,
sa ca khrii. s.tena yii"sunaasmaan tena saarddham utthaapitavaan svarga upave"sitavaa. m"sca|
7 so that in all eternity to come he could demonstrate the amazing extent of his grace in showing us kindness through Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
ittha. m sa khrii. s.tena yii"sunaasmaan prati svahitai. sitayaa bhaaviyuge. su svakiiyaanugrahasyaanupama. m nidhi. m prakaa"sayitum icchati| (aiōn g165)
8 For you've been saved by grace through trusting in him—it's not through yourselves, it's the gift of God!
yuuyam anugrahaad vi"svaasena paritraa. na. m praaptaa. h, tacca yu. smanmuulaka. m nahi kintvii"svarasyaiva daana. m,
9 This has nothing to do with human effort, so don't be proud of yourselves.
tat karmma. naa. m phalam api nahi, ata. h kenaapi na "slaaghitavya. m|
10 We're the product of what God does, created in Christ Jesus to do good, which God already planned that we should do.
yato vaya. m tasya kaaryya. m praag ii"svare. na niruupitaabhi. h satkriyaabhi. h kaalayaapanaaya khrii. s.te yii"sau tena m. r.s. taa"sca|
11 So you who are “foreigners” humanly-speaking, called “uncircumcised” by those who are “circumcised” (which is only a procedure carried out by human beings), you need to remember
puraa janmanaa bhinnajaatiiyaa hastak. rta. m tvakcheda. m praaptai rlokai"scaacchinnatvaca itinaamnaa khyaataa ye yuuya. m tai ryu. smaabhirida. m smarttavya. m
12 that once you had no relationship to Christ. You were barred as foreigners from being citizens of Israel, strangers to the agreement God had promised. You had no hope and you lived in the world without God.
yat tasmin samaye yuuya. m khrii. s.taad bhinnaa israayelalokaanaa. m sahavaasaad duurasthaa. h pratij naasambalitaniyamaanaa. m bahi. h sthitaa. h santo niraa"saa nirii"svaraa"sca jagatyaadhvam iti|
13 But now, in Christ Jesus, you who were once a long way off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
kintvadhunaa khrii. s.te yii"saavaa"sraya. m praapya puraa duuravarttino yuuya. m khrii. s.tasya "so. nitena nika. tavarttino. abhavata|
14 Christ is our peace. Through his body he made the two into one, and broke down the separating wall of hostility that divided us,
yata. h sa evaasmaaka. m sandhi. h sa dvayam ekiik. rtavaan "satrutaaruupi. nii. m madhyavarttinii. m prabhedakabhitti. m bhagnavaan da. n.daaj naayukta. m vidhi"saastra. m sva"sariire. na luptavaa. m"sca|
15 freeing us from the law with its requirements and regulations. He did this so he could create in himself one new person out of the two and so make peace,
yata. h sa sandhi. m vidhaaya tau dvau svasmin eka. m nutana. m maanava. m karttu. m
16 and completely reconcile both of them to God through the cross as if they were just one body, having destroyed our hostility towards each other.
svakiiyakru"se "satrutaa. m nihatya tenaivaikasmin "sariire tayo rdvayorii"svare. na sandhi. m kaarayitu. m ni"scatavaan|
17 He came and shared the good news of peace with those of you who were far away, and those who were nearby,
sa caagatya duuravarttino yu. smaan nika. tavarttino. asmaa. m"sca sandhe rma"ngalavaarttaa. m j naapitavaan|
18 because through him we both gain access to the Father through the same Spirit.
yatastasmaad ubhayapak. siiyaa vayam ekenaatmanaa pitu. h samiipa. m gamanaaya saamarthya. m praaptavanta. h|
19 That means you're no longer strangers and foreigners; you are fellow citizens of God's people and belong to God's family
ata idaanii. m yuuyam asamparkiiyaa vide"sina"sca na ti. s.thanata. h pavitralokai. h sahavaasina ii"svarasya ve"smavaasina"scaadhve|
20 that's being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone.

21 In him the whole building is joined together, growing to form a holy temple for the Lord.

22 You too are being built together in him as a place for God to live by the Spirit.
