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.

2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
asmaaka. m taatasye"svarasya prabho ryii"sukhrii. s.tasya caanugraha. h "saanti"sca yu. smaasu varttataa. m|
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,
asmaaka. m prabho ryii"so. h khrii. s.tasya taata ii"svaro dhanyo bhavatu; yata. h sa khrii. s.tenaasmabhya. m sarvvam aadhyaatmika. m svargiiyavara. m dattavaan|
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.
vaya. m yat tasya samak. sa. m premnaa pavitraa ni. skala"nkaa"sca bhavaamastadartha. m sa jagata. h s. r.s. te puurvva. m tenaasmaan abhirocitavaan, nijaabhila. sitaanurodhaacca
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.
yii"sunaa khrii. s.tena svasya nimitta. m putratvapade. asmaan svakiiyaanugrahasya mahattvasya pra"sa. msaartha. m puurvva. m niyuktavaan|
6 So we praise him for his glorious grace that he so kindly gave us in his beloved Son.
tasmaad anugrahaat sa yena priyatamena putre. naasmaan anug. rhiitavaan,
7 Through him we gain salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins as a result of his priceless grace
vaya. m tasya "so. nitena muktim arthata. h paapak. samaa. m labdhavanta. h|
8 that he so generously provided for us, together with all wisdom and understanding.
tasya ya iid. r"so. anugrahanidhistasmaat so. asmabhya. m sarvvavidha. m j naana. m buddhi nca baahulyaruupe. na vitaritavaan|
9 He revealed to us his previously-hidden will through which he was happy to pursue his plan
svargap. rthivyo ryadyad vidyate tatsarvva. m sa khrii. s.te sa. mgrahii. syatiiti hitai. si. naa
10 at the appropriate time to bring everyone together in Christ—those in heaven and those on the earth.
tena k. rto yo manoratha. h sampuur. nataa. m gatavatsu samaye. su saadhayitavyastamadhi sa svakiiyaabhilaa. sasya niguu. dha. m bhaavam asmaan j naapitavaan|
11 In him—we were chosen beforehand, according to the plan of the one who is working everything out according to his will,
puurvva. m khrii. s.te vi"svaasino ye vayam asmatto yat tasya mahimna. h pra"sa. msaa jaayate,
12 for the purpose that we who were the first to hope in Christ could praise his glory.

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,
yuuyamapi satya. m vaakyam arthato yu. smatparitraa. nasya susa. mvaada. m ni"samya tasminneva khrii. s.te vi"svasitavanta. h pratij naatena pavitre. naatmanaa mudrayevaa"nkitaa"sca|
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!
yatastasya mahimna. h prakaa"saaya tena kriitaanaa. m lokaanaa. m mukti ryaavanna bhavi. syati taavat sa aatmaasmaakam adhikaaritvasya satya"nkaarasya pa. nasvaruupo bhavati|
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,
prabhau yii"sau yu. smaaka. m vi"svaasa. h sarvve. su pavitraloke. su prema caasta iti vaarttaa. m "srutvaahamapi
16 why I never stop thanking God for you and remember you in my prayers.
yu. smaanadhi nirantaram ii"svara. m dhanya. m vadan praarthanaasamaye ca yu. smaan smaran varamima. m yaacaami|
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.
asmaaka. m prabho ryii"sukhrii. s.tasya taato ya. h prabhaavaakara ii"svara. h sa svakiiyatattvaj naanaaya yu. smabhya. m j naanajanakam prakaa"sitavaakyabodhaka ncaatmaana. m deyaat|
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.

19 May you also understand God's amazing power

20 that he demonstrated in raising Christ from the dead. God seated Christ at his right hand in heaven,
yata. h sa yasyaa. h "sakte. h prabalataa. m khrii. s.te prakaa"sayan m. rtaga. namadhyaat tam utthaapitavaan,
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)
adhipatitvapada. m "saasanapada. m paraakramo raajatva ncetinaamaani yaavanti padaaniiha loke paraloke ca vidyante te. saa. m sarvve. saam uurddhve svarge nijadak. si. napaar"sve tam upave"sitavaan, (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,
sarvvaa. ni tasya cara. nayoradho nihitavaan yaa samitistasya "sariira. m sarvvatra sarvve. saa. m puurayitu. h puuraka nca bhavati ta. m tasyaa muurddhaana. m k. rtvaa
23 which is his body, filled full and made complete by Christ, who fills and brings everything to completion.
