< Ephesians 3 >
1 For this cause, I Paul am the prisoner of Iesus Christ for you Gentiles,
Nna Paulo, motlhanka wa ga Keresete, ke fano mo kgolegelong ka ntlha ya lona, ka go rera gore le lona Badichaba lo bontlha bongwe jwa ntlo ya Modimo.
2 If ye haue heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which is giuen me to you warde,
Ga go belaesege lo setse lo itse gore Modimo o nneetse tiro e e faphegileng e ya go supa kutlwelo botlhoko mo go lona Badichaba, jaaka ke buile pele ka bokhutshwane mo lokwalong longwe lwa dikwalo tsa me. Modimo ka sebele o nkaetse leano le la one la bosaitsiweng la gore Badichaba le bone ba balelwa mo bopelonoming jwa one.
3 That is, that God by reuelation hath shewed this mysterie vnto me (as I wrote aboue in fewe wordes,
4 Whereby when ye reade, ye may knowe mine vnderstanding in the mysterie of Christ)
Ke bua jaana go lo tlhalosetsa ka fa ke itseng dilo tse ka teng.
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,
Mo metlheng ya bogologolo Modimo ga o ise o ke o tlhakanele leano le, le batho ba one, mme jaanong o le senoletse baaposetoloi le baporofiti ba one ka Mowa O O Boitshepo.
6 That the Gentiles should be inheriters also, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the Gospel,
Mme bosaitsiweng ke jo: gore Badichaba ba tlaa nna le seabe se se lekanang le sa Bajuta mo dikhumong tsotlhe tse di ruilweng ke barwa-Modimo; botlhe ba lalediwa go nna ba phuthego ya one, mme gotlhe ga ditsholofetso tsa Modimo tsa matlhogonolo a magolo ka Keresete ke ga bone botlhe fa ba amogela Mafoko a a Molemo kaga Keresete le se a se ba diretseng.
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.
Modimo o nneetse tshwanelo e e hakgamatsang e ya go bolelela mongwe le mongwe leano le la one; gape o nneetse nonofo ya one le botlhale jo bo faphegileng go le tlhalosa ka fa tshwanelong.
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,
A lo ko lo akanyeng! Le fa ke sa dira sepe se se dirang gore ke le tshwanele, gape le fa nna ke le Mokeresete yo e seng wa sepe bogolo go botlhe, le fa go ntse jalo ke nna yo ke neng ka tlhophelwa tiro e, e e itumedisang, e e faphegileng ya go bolelela Badichaba Mafoko a Boitumelo a mahumo a a sa feleng a ba ka a bonang ka Keresete;
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 )
le go tlhalosetsa mongwe le mongwe gore Modimo ke Mmoloki le wa Badichaba, fela jaaka ene yo o dirileng dilo tsotlhe a ne a rulaganya mo sephiring go tswa tshimologong. (aiōn )
10 To the intent, that nowe vnto principalities and powers in heauenly places, might be knowen by the Church the manifolde wisedome of God,
Mme tota maikaelelo a one e ne e le eng? E ne e le go supegetsa batshwara-marapo botlhe ba legodimo ka fa Modimo o leng botlhale ka teng fa botlhe ba lolwapa lwa One, Bajuta le Badichaba, ka go tshwana, ba lomagantswe mmogo mo phuthegong ya one,
11 According to the eternall purpose, which he wrought in Christ Iesus our Lord: (aiōn )
fela jaaka o ne o sa bolo go rulaganya go dira ka Jesu Keresete Morena wa rona. (aiōn )
12 By whom we haue boldenes and entrance with confidence, by faith in him.
Jaanong re ka tla mo Modinong kwa ntle ga poifo, re tlhomamisa kamogelo ya one e e tletseng boitumelo fa re tla ka Keresete ebile re mo ikanya.
13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for your sakes, which is your glory.
Ke gone tswee-tswee se lapisiweng dipelo ke se ba se ntirang kwano. Ke bogela lona mme lo tshwa-netse go ikutlwa e le tlotlo mo go lona lwa ba lwa tsenya marapo dinameng.
14 For this cause I bowe my knees vnto the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ,
Fa ke akanya kaga botlhale le megopolo ya leano la one ke khubama ka mangole ke rapela Rara wa ba ntlo e kgolo yotlhe ya Modimo, bangwe ba bone ba setse ba le kwa legodimong mme ba bangwe ba fano mo lefatsheng,
15 (Of whom is named the whole familie in heauen and in earth)
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,
gore mo dikhumong tsa one tse di galalelang tse di senang selekanyo, o tlaa lo naya nonofo e kgolo e e ka fa teng ka Mowa wa One O O Boitshepo.
17 That Christ may dwell in your heartes by faith:
Mme ke rapela gore Keresete a nne ka kgololesego mo dipelong tsa lona, a nna mo go lona jaaka lo mo ikanya. A medi ya lona e tsenelele kwa teng mo loratong lwa Modimo lo lo hakgamatsang;
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:
gape lo bo lo kgone go ikutlwela le go tlhaloganya, bana ba Modimo botlhe ba tshwanetse, kana lorato lwa gagwe lo boleele bo kae, lo bophara bo kae, lo boteng bo le kae, le gone lo kwa godimo jang; mme gore lo itemogele lorato lo ka bo lona, le fa lo le bogolo go le kalo mo lo ka sekeng lwa bona bofelelo ja lone kgotsa go tlhaloganya ka botlalo. Mme kwa bokhutlong lo tlaa tladiwa ka Modimo ka sebele.
19 And to knowe the loue of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled with all fulnesse of God.
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,
Jaanong a kgalalelo e nne go Modimo o ka nonofo ya one e kgolo e e dirang mo go rona, o kgonang go dira go le gotona go na le jaaka re ne re ka kopa kgotsa le go akanya ka ga gone go feta dithapelo tsa rona tse dikgolo thata mo go senang selekanyo, dikeletso tse di molemo, dikakanyo, kgotsa ditsholofelo.
21 Be praise in the Church by Christ Iesus, throughout all generations for euer, Amen. (aiōn )
A o newe kgalalelo ka bosakhutleng mo dingwageng tse di sa khutleng ka ntlha ya leina la Morena la poloko ya phuthego ka Jesu Keresete. (aiōn )
