Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, to the holy ones who are in Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
Saa krataa yi fi me Paulo a Onyankopɔn fi ne pɛ mu ayɛ me Kristo Yesu somafo no nkyɛn, Merekyerɛw akɔma ahotefo a wɔte Efeso, Kristo Yesu mu agyidifo:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Adom ne asomdwoe a efi yɛn Agya Onyankopɔn ne Awurade Yesu Kristo no nka mo.
3 Blessed [is] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who blessed us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly [places] in Christ,
Momma yɛnna Onyankopɔn a ɔyɛ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no ase, efisɛ ɔnam Kristo so de honhom mu nhyira a efi ɔsoro abrɛ yɛn.
4 according as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, for our being holy and unblemished before Him, in love,
Ansa na Onyankopɔn bɛbɔ wiase no, ɔdɔɔ yɛn na oyii yɛn wɔ Kristo mu sɛ yɛbɛyɛ kronkron a mfomso biara nni yɛn ho wɔ nʼani so. Ofi ɔdɔ mu
5 having foreordained us to the adoption of sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
hyɛ too hɔ se, ne pɛ mu no, ɔnam Yesu Kristo so de yɛn bɛyɛ ne mma,
6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, in which He made us accepted in the beloved,
de akamfo nʼadom a ɛdɔɔso a ɔde akyɛ yɛn kwa wɔ ne Dɔba no mu no.
7 in whom we have the redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of the trespasses, according to the riches of His grace,
Ne mu na yenya ogye a efi ne mogya mu. Ne mu na yenya bɔnefakyɛ nso, sɛnea Onyankopɔn adom mmoroso a
8 in which He abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
ɔde nyansa ne ntease nyinaa hwie guu yɛn so no te.
9 having made known to us the secret of His will, according to His good pleasure, that He purposed in Himself,
Onyankopɔn nam nea Kristo yɛe no so ada nʼanwonwakwan no adi akyerɛ yɛn sɛ
10 in regard to the dispensation of the fullness of the times, to bring into one the whole in the Christ, both the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth—in Him;
bere a wahyɛ no, ɔbɛboaboa abɔde nyinaa ano, nea ɛwɔ ɔsoro ne nea ɛwɔ asase so ahyɛ ɔbaako a ɔne Kristo no ase.
11 in whom also we obtained an inheritance, being foreordained according to the purpose of Him who is working all things according to the counsel of His will,
Onyankopɔn yɛ nea ɔpɛ bere biara. Ɛno nti na ɔnam Kristo so paw yɛn fii wiase mfiase,
12 for our being to the praise of His glory, [even] those who first hoped in the Christ,
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yɛn a yedii kan nyaa anidaso wɔ Kristo mu no bɛyɛ nkamfo ahyɛ no anuonyam.
13 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth—the good news of your salvation—in whom also having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise,
Saa ara na ɛte wɔ mo ho nso. Bere a motee nokwasɛm a ɛyɛ asɛmpa a ɛmaa mo nkwagye no, mugyee Kristo dii. Wɔde bɔhyɛ Honhom Kronkron no hyɛɛ mo nsow wɔ ne mu.
14 which is a deposit of our inheritance, to the redemption of the acquired possession, to the praise of His glory.
Honhom no ma yɛn awerehyɛmu sɛ wɔde nea Onyankopɔn de asie ama ne nkurɔfo no bɛma yɛn. Afei yɛbɛde yɛn ho na wɔbɛkamfo Onyankopɔn ahyɛ no anuonyam.
15 Because of this I also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love to all the holy ones,
Esiane eyi nti, efi bere a metee gyidi a mowɔ wɔ Awurade Yesu mu ne ɔdɔ a modɔ Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo no,
16 do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
minnyaee aseda a mede ma Onyankopɔn wɔ mo ho no da. Mekae mo wɔ me mpaebɔ mu,
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the recognition of Him,
na mibisa yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Nyankopɔn, anuonyam Agya no se ɔmma mo Honhom Kronkron no a ɔbɛma mo nyansa na wada Onyankopɔn adi akyerɛ mo, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubehu no.
18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, for your knowing what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the holy ones,
Mesrɛ sɛ mo adwene mu mmue na munhu ne hann no, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubenya anidaso a ɛno nti ɔfrɛɛ mo no, ne ahonya a ɛwɔ agyapade kronkron a ɛwɔ hɔ ma ahotefo no,
19 and what the exceeding greatness of His power to us who are believing, according to the working of the power of His might,
ne ne tumi a ɛso na biribiara ne no nsɛ ma yɛn a yegye di no. Ɛyɛ saa tumi nwonwaso no ara na ɔdaa no adi
20 which He worked in the Christ, having raised Him out of the dead, and sat [Him] at His right hand in the heavenly [places],
bere a onyan Kristo fii awufo mu na ɔde no tenaa ne nifa so wɔ ɔsoro ahemman no mu no.
21 far above all principality, and authority, and might, and lordship, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in the coming one; (aiōn g165)
Saa tumi yi korɔn sen mpanyinni ne tumidi, ahoɔden ne kɛseyɛ, ne dibea biara a wotumi de ma saa bere yi ne bere a ɛbɛba no mu. (aiōn g165)
22 and He put all things under His feet, and gave Him—head over all things to the Assembly,
Onyankopɔn de biribiara hyɛɛ Kristo nan ase, na ɔde no ayɛ nneɛma nyinaa ti ama asafo no,
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who is filling all in all.
a ɛne ne nipadua. Ɔno ne nea ɔhyɛ ade nyinaa ma wɔ akwan nyinaa mu.
