Ephesians 2
1 And you hath he quickened, that were dead in trespasses and sinnes,
Mo de, na moawuwu wɔ mo amumɔyɛ ne mo bɔne a
2 Wherein, in times past ye walked, according to the course of this world, and after the prince that ruleth in the aire, euen the spirite, that nowe worketh in the children of disobedience, (aiōn g165)
na anka mote mu, bere a na mudi wiase ne wim sodifo ahenni akyi no ne honhom a mprempren ɛreyɛ adwuma wɔ wɔn a wɔyɛ asoɔden mu no mu. (aiōn g165)
3 Among whom we also had our conuersation in time past, in the lustes of our flesh, in fulfilling the will of the flesh, and of the minde, and were by nature the children of wrath, as well as others.
Bere bi, yɛn nyinaa ne wɔn tena dii ɔhonam akɔnnɔ akyi yɛɛ ɔhonam apɛde ne ne nsusuwii. Yɛn nso, na ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn abufuw ba yɛn so.
4 But God which is rich in mercie, through his great loue wherewith he loued vs,
Nanso esiane nʼadɔeyɛ a ɛdɔɔso ma yɛn nti, Onyankopɔn a nʼahummɔbɔ dɔɔso no
5 Euen when we were dead by sinnes, hath quickened vs together in Christ, by whose grace ye are saued,
maa yɛn nkwa wɔ Kristo mu, wɔ bere a anka yɛawuwu wɔ amumɔyɛ mu mpo; adom nti na wɔagye mo nkwa.
6 And hath raysed vs vp together, and made vs sit together in the heauenly places in Christ Iesus,
Onyankopɔn nyan yɛn ne Kristo, na ɔde yɛn ne Kristo atena ɔsoro ahemman mu
7 That he might shewe in the ages to come the exceeding riches of his grace, through his kindnesse toward vs in Christ Iesus. (aiōn g165)
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a nna a ɛreba no mu no, ɔbɛda nʼadom ahonya a ɛso nni no adi; nʼadɔe a ɔnam Kristo Yesu so yɛɛ yɛn no. (aiōn g165)
8 For by grace are ye saued through faith, and that not of your selues: it is the gift of God,
Ɛyɛ adom no nti na wɔnam gyidi so agye mo nkwa. Emfi mo ankasa, ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn akyɛde.
9 Not of workes, least any man should boast himselfe.
Emfi nnwuma mu, na obi de ahoahoa ne ho.
10 For we are his workemanship created in Christ Iesus vnto good workes, which God hath ordeined, that we should walke in them.
Onyankopɔn na wayɛ yɛn sɛnea yɛte yi. Ɔnam Kristo so bɔɔ yɛn sɛ yɛmmɛyɛ nnwuma pa a wasiesie ato hɔ no.
11 Wherefore remember that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, and called vncircumcision of them, which are called circumcision in the flesh, made with hands,
Afei monkae sɛ mo a na anka kan no wɔwoo mo sɛ amanamanmufo, na wɔn a wɔfrɛ wɔn ho twetiatwafo no (nea wɔde nsa ayɛ wɔ honam mu) frɛ mo momonotofo,
12 That ye were, I say, at that time without Christ, and were alients from the common wealth of Israel, and were strangers from the couenants of promise, and had no hope, and were without God in the world.
monkae sɛ saa bere no na moatew mo ho afi Kristo ho, na wɔnkan mo mfra Israelfo, na moyɛ ahɔho a monka bɔhyɛ apam no ho, na munni anidaso na munni Onyankopɔn nso wɔ wiase.
13 But nowe in Christ Iesus, ye which once were farre off, are made neere by the blood of Christ.
Nanso afei mo a na anka mowɔ akyirikyiri no, wɔnam Kristo mogya no so atwe mo abɛn Onyankopɔn.
14 For he is our peace, which hath made of both one, and hath broken the stoppe of the partition wall,
Efisɛ Kristo no ankasa nam baako a wama Yudafo ne amanamanmufo ayɛ no so de asomdwoe aba. Ɔnam ɔno ankasa ne honam so bubuu fasu a na etwa wɔn ntam ma wɔyɛ atamfo no.
15 In abrogating through his flesh the hatred, that is, the Lawe of commandements which standeth in ordinances, for to make of twaine one newe man in himselfe, so making peace,
Ɔnam ne nipadua so asɛe Mose mmara ne nʼahyɛde tumi no. Ne botae ne sɛ ɔbɛma Yudafo ne amanamanmufo ayɛ baako na ɔde asomdwoe aba;
16 And that he might reconcile both vnto God in one body by his crosse, and slay hatred thereby,
ɔnam asennua a ɔde sɛee nitan a ɛwɔ wɔn ntam no so aka wɔn abɔ mu ayɛ wɔn nipadua baako na wapata wɔne Onyankopɔn ntam.
17 And came, and preached peace to you which were afarre off, and to them that were neere.
Enti Kristo ba bɛkaa Asɛmpa a ɛyɛ asomdwoesɛm no kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri ne wɔn a wɔbɛn nyinaa.
18 For through him we both haue an entrance vnto the Father by one Spirit.
Ɔno nti yɛwɔ Honhom baako a yɛnam no so kɔ Agya no nkyɛn.
19 Nowe therefore ye are no more strangers and forreiners: but citizens with the Saintes, and of the houshold of God,
Enti mprempren, monnyɛ ahɔho ne amamfrafo bio, na mmom mo ne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo no yɛ nnipa koro na mofra Onyankopɔn abusua no mu,
20 And are built vpon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, Iesus Christ himselfe being the chiefe corner stone,
na wɔato mo asi asomafo no ne adiyifo no fapem a Kristo Yesu no ankasa yɛ ne tweatibo no so.
21 In whom all the building coupled together, groweth vnto an holy Temple in the Lord.
Ɔno na ɔma ɔdan mu no nyinaa yɛ baako na ɛbɛyɛ asɔredan kronkron wɔ Awurade mu.
22 In whom ye also are built together to be the habitation of God by the Spirit.
Ne mu na wɔresiesie mo na moabɔ mu abɛyɛ ofi a Onyankopɔn nam ne Honhom so tena mu.
