< Ephesians 1 >
1 Pavl an Apostle of Jesvs Christ by the will of God, to the Saints, which are at Ephesus, and to ye faithfull in Christ Iesus:
Ditsala tsa me tsa Bakeresete mo Efeso tse di rategang, tse ka malatsi otlhe di ikanyegang mo Moreneng: ke nna Paulo yo ke lo kwalelang, yo ke tlhophilweng ke Modimo go nna morongwa wa ga Jesu Keresete.
2 Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
A masego a gagwe le kagiso a nne le lona, a lo a romeletsweng ke Modimo Rraetsho le Jesu Keresete Morena wa rona.
3 Blessed be God, and the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, which hath blessed vs with all spirituall blessing in heauenly thinges in Christ,
Mme re galaletsa Modimo thata jang, Ra-Morena wa rona ebong Jesu Keresete, yo o re segofaditseng ka lesego lengwe le lengwe mo legodimong ka gobo re le ba ga Keresete.
4 As hee hath chosen vs in him, before the foundation of the worlde, that we should be holy, and without blame before him in loue:
Erile bogologolo, le pele ga o dira lefatshe, Modimo o ne wa re itlhophela go nna baone tota, ka se Keresete o neng a tlaa se re direla; o ne wa ikaelela go re itshepisa mo matlhong a One, re sena molato ope rona ba re emeng fa pele ga one re apere lorato lwa one.
5 Who hath predestinate vs, to be adopted through Iesus Christ in him selfe, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Leano la one le le sa fetogeng e ntse ka malatsi otlhe e le go re dira ba lelwapa la One ka go roma Jesu Keresete go tla go re swela. Mme o ne o dira jaana ka gore o ne o batla go dira jalo!
6 To the prayse of the glory of his grace, wherewith he hath made vs freely accepted in his beloued,
Jaanong a pako yotlhe e nne go Modimo ka ntlha ya bopelonomi jwa one jo bo hakgamatsang mo go rona, le botsalano jo o re bo neileng ka ntlha ya go bo re le ba Morwaa One yo o rategang thata.
7 By whom we haue redemption through his blood, euen the forgiuenes of sinnes, according to his rich grace:
Jalo he, bopelonomi jwa One bo a penologa mo go rona gonne o ne wa tlosa dibe tsotlhe tsa rona ka madi a Morwaa One, yo re bolokwang ka ene;
8 Whereby he hath bene aboundant toward vs in all wisedome and vnderstanding,
gape o re neseditse khumo ya tshegofatso ya One, gonne o re tlhaloganya sentle thata ebile o itse se se re siametseng ka dinako tsotlhe.
9 And hath opened vnto vs the mysterie of his will according to his good pleasure, which he had purposed in him,
Modimo o re boleletse lebaka la sephiri sa One sa go romela Keresete, leano la kutlwelobotlhoko le o sa bolong go le akanya;
10 That in the dispensation of the fulnesse of the times, he might gather together in one all things, both which are in heauen, and which are in earth, euen in Christ:
mme maikaelelo a One e ne e le a: gore e re fa lobaka lo setse lo siame o re phuthe rotlhe gongwe le gongwe kwa re leng teng, mo legodimong kgotsa mo lefatsheng, go nna le one mo go Keresete, ka bosakhutleng.
11 In whom also we are chosen when we were predestinate according to ye purpose of him, which worketh all things after the counsell of his owne will,
Segolo jang ka ntlha ya se Keresete a se dirileng, re nnile dimpho tsa Modimo tse o di itulelang, mme ka ele bontlhabongwe jwa leano la bogosi re sale re tlhophiwa go nna ba One go tswa tshimologong, mme dilo tsotlhe di diragala fela jaaka o sale o ikaeletse bogologolo.
12 That we, which first trusted in Christ, should be vnto the praise of his glorie:
Maikaelelo a Modimo mo go lone leano le, e ne e le gore re galaletse Modimo re bo re o neye kgalalelo ka ntlha ya go re direla dilo tse dikgolo tse, rona ba re neng ra nna ba ntlha go re direla dilo tse di kgolo tse, rona ba re neng ra nna ba ntlha go ikanya Keresete.
13 In whom also ye haue trusted, after that ye heard the worde of trueth, euen the Gospel of your saluation, wherein also after that ye beleeued, ye were sealed with the holy Spirite of promise,
Mme ka ntlha ya se Keresete o se dirileng, le lona lotlhe ba bangwe, ba lo utlwileng Mafoko a a Molemo a ka fa lo ka bolokwang ka teng, lwa ba lwa ikanya Keresete, lo ne lwa tshwaiwa ke Mowa O O Boitshepo gore lo ba ga Keresete, o e rileng bogologolo ra o solofediwa rotlhe rona Bakeresete.
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance, for the redemption of that libertie purchased vnto the prayse of his glory.
Go nna teng ga gagwe mo go rona ke tlhomamiso ya Modimo gore tota o tlaa re neela gotlhe mo o go re solofeditseng; mme sekano sa mowa O O Boitshepo mo go rona se raya gore Modimo o setse o re rekile, le gore o tlhomamisa go re busetsa kwa go one. Ke lone fela lebaka le lengwe le re tshwanetseng go galaletsa Modimo wa rona wa kgalalelo ka lone.
15 Therefore also after that I heard of the faith, which ye haue in the Lord Iesus, and loue toward all the Saints,
Ke gone ka mo e leng gore, fa e sale fela e re ke sena go utlwalela kaga tumelo ya lona e e nonofileng mo go Morena Jesu le kaga lorato lo lo nang nalo mo Bakereseteng gongwe le gongwe,
16 I cease not to giue thankes for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
ga ke ise ke ko ke khutle go leboga Modimo kaga lona. Ke lo rapelela gangwe le gape, ke kopa Mo-dimo, Rara yo o galalelang wa Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete, go lo naya botlhale go bona sentle le go tlhaloganya tota gore Jesu ke mang le gotlhe mo o go lo diretseng.
17 That the God of our Lord Iesus Christ, that Father of glory, might giue vnto you the Spirit of wisedome, and reuelation through the acknowledging of him,
18 That the eyes of your vnderstanding may be lightened, that ye may knowe what the hope is of his calling, and what the riches of his glorious inheritance is in the Saints,
Ke rapelela gore dipelo tsa lona di tlale lesedi gore lo tle lo bone sengwe sa malatsi a a saleng kwa pele se a se lo bileditseng go nna le seabe mo go sone. Ke batla gore lo lemoge gore Modimo o humile gonne rona ba re leng ba ga Keresete re ba one.
19 And what is the exceeding greatnesse of his power toward vs, which beleeue, according to the working of his mightie power,
Ke rapelela gore lo simolole go tlhaloganya ka fa nonofo ya One e leng kgolo ka teng go thusa ba ba dumelang mo go One. Mme e ntse ke yone fela nonofo e kgolo eo,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his right hand in the heauenly places,
e e tsositseng Keresete mo baswing ya mmaya mo lefelong la tlotlo ka fa lebogong le legolo la Modimo mo legodimong,
21 Farre aboue al principalitie, and power, and might, and domination, and euery Name, that is named, not in this world only, but also in that that is to come, (aiōn )
kwa godimo-dimo thata go feta kgosi le fa e ka ne e le efe kgotsa mmusi kgotsa molaodi yo o sa fetolweng kgotsa moeteledipele. Ee, tlotlo ya gagwe e galalela thata go feta le fa e le ya ga mang mo lefatsheng leno kgotsa mo lefatsheng le le tlang. (aiōn )
22 And hath made all things subiect vnder his feete, and hath giuen him ouer all things to be the head to the Church,
Mme Modimo o beile dilo tsotlhe ka fa tlase ga dinao tsa gagwe wa bo wa mo dira Tlhogo kgolo ya phuthego,
23 Which is his body, euen the fulnesse of him that filleth all in all things.
e e leng mmele wa gagwe, e e tladitsweng ka ene, Motlhodi le Moabi wa dilo tsotlhe gongwe le gongwe.
