< Ephesians 3 >

1 For this cause, I Paul am the prisoner of Iesus Christ for you Gentiles,
Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka mụ onwe m bụ Pọl bụ onye mkpọrọ nke Jisọs Kraịst maka unu ndị mba ọzọ.
2 If ye haue heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which is giuen me to you warde,
Nʼihi nʼezie, unu anụla banyere nlekọta nke amara Chineke ahụ nke e nyere m maka ọdịmma unu.
3 That is, that God by reuelation hath shewed this mysterie vnto me (as I wrote aboue in fewe wordes,
Otu e si kpughee nzube nzuzo ya niile nye m, dị ka m gwara unu ihe banyere ya nʼokwu dị nta nʼakwụkwọ ozi ahụ m detara unu.
4 Whereby when ye reade, ye may knowe mine vnderstanding in the mysterie of Christ)
Ọ bụrụkwa na unu agụọ akwụkwọ ahụ m deere, unu ga-aghọta ihe m maara banyere ihe omimi Kraịst.
5 Which in other ages was not opened vnto the sonnes of men, as it is nowe reueiled vnto his holy Apostles and Prophets by the Spirit,
Nke a e meghị ka ụmụ mmadụ mara nʼọgbọ gara aga dị ka Mmụọ Nsọ siri kpugheere ya ndị ozi na ndị amụma ya dị nsọ ugbu a.
6 That the Gentiles should be inheriters also, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the Gospel,
Otu a ka ndị mba ọzọ si soro bụrụ ndị nketa, ndị ga-abụ otu anụ ahụ na ndị ga-eketa nkwa ahụ nʼime Jisọs Kraịst site nʼoziọma.
7 Whereof I am made a minister by the gift of the grace of God giuen vnto me through the effectuall working of his power.
E mere m ka m bụrụ onyeozi nke oziọma a, dịka onyinye amara nke Chineke si dị, bụ nke e nyere m site nʼịrụ ọrụ nke ike ya.
8 Euen vnto me the least of all Saints is this grace giuen, that I should preach among the Gentiles the vnsearchable riches of Christ,
Ọ bụ ezie na mụ bụ onye dịkarịsịrị nta nʼetiti ndị nsọ niile, e nyere m amara nke a, ikwusara ndị mba ọzọ oziọma banyere akụ nke enweghị atụ nke juru nʼime Kraịst,
9 And to make cleare vnto all men what the fellowship of the mysterie is, which from the beginning of the world hath bene hid in God, who hath created all things by Iesus Christ, (aiōn g165)
meekwa ka mmadụ niile hụ ihe bụ atụmatụ nke ihe omimi e zoro nʼime Chineke onye kere ihe niile, ọtụtụ afọ. (aiōn g165)
10 To the intent, that nowe vnto principalities and powers in heauenly places, might be knowen by the Church the manifolde wisedome of God,
Ka ọ ga-abụ site na chọọchị, a ga-eme ka amamihe Chineke nʼụdị dị iche iche bụrụ ihe ọchịchị na ikike niile dị nʼeluigwe ga-amata.
11 According to the eternall purpose, which he wrought in Christ Iesus our Lord: (aiōn g165)
Nke a bụ nʼusoro nke atụmatụ ya dị ebighị ebi, nke e mezuru nʼime Jisọs Kraịst Onyenwe anyị, (aiōn g165)
12 By whom we haue boldenes and entrance with confidence, by faith in him.
bụ onye anyị nwere ntụkwasị obi na obi siri ike ịbịakwute site nʼokwukwe anyị nwere na ya.
13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for your sakes, which is your glory.
Nʼihi nke a, arịọ m ka unu ghara ịda mba maka mkpagbu m nʼihi unu, ha bụ otuto nye unu.
14 For this cause I bowe my knees vnto the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ,
Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka m na-egbu ikpere m nʼala nʼihu Nna anyị,
15 (Of whom is named the whole familie in heauen and in earth)
onye ezinaụlọ niile dị nʼụwa a na nke dị nʼeluigwe na-esite nʼaka ya enwe aha.
16 That he might graunt you according to the riches of his glorie, that ye may be strengthened by his Spirit in the inner man,
Ekpere m bụ ka o site nʼịba ụba nke otuto ya, nye unu ike na-esite na Mmụọ ya, mee ka unu dị ike nʼime mmụọ unu;
17 That Christ may dwell in your heartes by faith:
ka Kraịst nwee ike biri nʼobi unu site nʼokwukwe, ka unu ndị gbanyere mgbọrọgwụ guzosiekwa ike nʼịhụnanya.
18 That ye, being rooted and grounded in loue, may be able to comprehend with al Saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height:
Ana m arịọkwa, ka unu na ndị nsọ niile nwee ike ịghọta ihe bụ obosara, ogologo, ịdị elu na ịdị omimi,
19 And to knowe the loue of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled with all fulnesse of God.
na ịmatakwa ịhụnanya nke Kraịst nke karịrị amamihe, ka unu jupụtakwa nʼizuoke niile nke Chineke.
20 Vnto him therefore that is able to do exceeding aboundantly aboue all that we aske or thinke, according to the power that worketh in vs,
Ugbu a, nye onye ahụ pụrụ imebiga ihe nʼoke karịa ihe niile nke anyị rịọrọ, maọbụ karịa ka anyị pụrụ ichepụta nʼuche anyị, site nʼike ya nke na-arụ ọrụ nʼime anyị,
21 Be praise in the Church by Christ Iesus, throughout all generations for euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
ọ bụ ya ka otuto dịrị nʼime chọọchị na nʼime Kraịst Jisọs ruo ọgbọ niile nke mgbe niile, ebighị ebi ruo ebighị ebi. Amen. (aiōn g165)
