Ephesians 1
1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
Paulusi, mu apostola wa Kresite Jesu che ntato ya Ireza, ku vantu ve Ireza va jolola mwa Efesiyasi mi basepahala mwa Kreste Jesu.
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Chishemo kwenu ni nkozo kuzwa kwa Ireza ishetu ni Simwine Kreste Jesu.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ireza nisi wa Simwine Jesu Kreste wetu a lumbekwe, ava tufuyoli ni mbuyoti zonse zo luhuho muzivaka ze wilu mwa kreste.
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Ireza ava tuketi kuzwa ku matangilo e fasi, kuti tuve va jolola nikusava ni mulandu mu menso akwe.
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Ireza avatulukisezi kale ku añulwa uvu vana chakuya ka Jesu Kreste, chokusaka kwe ntato yakwe.
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Kuañulwa kwetu kuzwilira kukulumbwa kwe nkanya ye chishemo chakwe chatuha kokuva avo vasaka.
7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Mwa Jesu Kreste twina intukuluho cha malaha akwe ni nswalelo ye zivi, cho kuya ko bukando bwe chishemo chakwe.
8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
Ava tuhi chishemo chikando ni vutali ni nkutwisiso.
9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
Ireeza ava tondezi kwetu mulero wa vali ku patite che ntato yakwe, chokuya kecho chi mutavisa, mi chava vonahazi mwa kreste
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
Musevezi wa kreste ivali mulelo wo kwizula we nako, kuleta zintu zonse hamwina, zintu zonse mwi wulu ni hansi, hansi wo mutwi wonke, nanga Kreste.
11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
Mwa Kreste tuva ketiwa kuva va jovoli. Tuva ketwa kwi ntazi muhupulo wakwe yo seveza zintu zonse cho kuya ko mulero wakwe.
12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
Ireza wa tu keta kuva va jovoli njokuti tuve va matangilo kuva ni nsepo mwa Kreste, mi tuve va lumba mwi nkanya yakwe.
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
Mwa Kreste, inwe nanwe, hanu va zuwi lizwi lye nit, ivangeri ye mpuluso, mi muva zumini mwali mi muva vikwa chisupo chiva sepiswe cho Luho lu Jolola.
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Luho lu Jolola chintu chi tometwe ko ku jovola haisi hatutwa ziwana zonse, ke ntumbo ye nkanya yakwe.
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
Kelyi vaka, kuzwa hani va zuwili ze ntumelo yenu mwa Simwine Jesu ne rato lyenu ku ve Reeza va chena,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
Kena niva siyi kuli tumela kwe Ireza kwenu ni mi wamba mwi ntapelo zangu.
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
Nilapela kuti Ireza wa Simwine wetu Jesu Kreste, Isi we nkanya, kamihe luhuho lwa maano ni kunutu mwi nzivo yakwe.
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
Nilapela kuti menso ye nkulo yenu awole kuvona, kuti mwi zive vundume bwe nsepo kwa misumpila ni chifumu che nkanya yo ku jovola kwavo vantu va jovola va Ireza.
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
Mi mwintapelo zangu ni kumbila kuti mwi zive vukando bwe ziho mwetu va zumina, cho kuya ko kuseveza kwizi makando.
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
Aya nji mazi aswana awo Ireza ava sevezi mwa kreste hava muvusi kuva fwile niku mwi kazika kwi yanza lye chilyo lya mavaka e wilu.
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (aiōn g165)
Ava mwikaziki kule kuhita kuvusa konse ni vavusi ni nzivo ni kuyendisa, mi ni mazina ava kuvikitwe. Kreste keta yendise fela mweyi nako, kono ni mwi nako zi keza. (aiōn g165)
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
Ireza ava viki zintu zonse kunsi ya matende a Kreste ni kumuha inchechi kuvusa he wulu ye zintu zonse.
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Ichechi muvili wakwe, vungi bwakwe yo wizula ni kuizula monse.
