Ephesians 3
1 For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you the nations,
Yango wana, ngai Polo, mokangami na boloko mpo ete nazali mosali ya Yesu-Klisto mpo na bolamu na bino Bapagano—
2 if, indeed, you heard of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,
Solo, boyokaki ete Nzambe apesaki ngai mosala ya ngolu na Ye mpo na bino
3 that by revelation He made known to me the secret, according as I wrote before in few [words]—
mpe ayebisaki ngai mabombami na nzela ya emoniseli, ndenge nasili kokomela bino na mwa maloba.
4 in regard to which you are able, reading [it], to understand my knowledge in the secret of the Christ,
Tango bokotanga maloba yango, bokokoka kososola mayele na ngai kati na mabombami yango oyo etali Klisto.
5 which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit—
Molimo ayebisaki mabombami yango te na bato ya bikeke ya kala, ndenge alakisi yango sik’oyo na bantoma mpe basakoli ya Nzambe oyo bazali bule.
6 that the nations are fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of His promise in the Christ, through the good news,
Mabombami yango ezali boye: Kati na Yesu-Klisto, na nzela ya Sango Malamu, Bapagano bazali bakitani ya libula elongo na Isalaele, biteni ya nzoto moko, mpe basangani elongo kati na elaka moko.
7 of which I became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God that was given to me, according to the working of His power;
Kolanda ngolu oyo Nzambe apesaki ngai lokola likabo na nzela ya nguya na Ye, nakoma mosali ya Sango Malamu.
8 to me—the less than the least of all the holy ones—was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news—the untraceable riches of the Christ,
Atako nazali moto ya suka kati na basantu nyonso, kasi Nzambe apesa ngai ngolu ya kosakola epai ya Bapagano bomengo monene ya Klisto;
9 and to cause all to see what [is] the fellowship of the secret that has been hid from the ages in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ, (aiōn g165)
apesa ngai mpe ngolu ya kosunga bato nyonso mpo ete basosola ndenge nini Nzambe akokisaka mabombami oyo ezalaki wuta kala ya kobombama kati na Ye, Mokeli na nyonso, (aiōn g165)
10 that there might be made known now to the principalities and the authorities in the heavenly [places], through the Assembly, the manifold wisdom of God,
na tina ete bakonzi ya milimo mpe banguya kati na mboka ya milimo eyeba sik’oyo, na nzela ya Lingomba, bwanya ya Nzambe oyo emonisamaka na lolenge ebele,
kolanda mabongisi oyo asala wuta kala mpe akokisa kati na Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso. (aiōn g165)
12 in whom we have the freedom and the access in confidence through the faith of Him,
Kati na Yesu-Klisto mpe na nzela ya kondima na biso kati na Ye, tozali na elikya ya kopusana na bonsomi nyonso pene ya Nzambe.
13 for this reason, I ask [you] not to faint in my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
Lisusu, nazali kosenga na bino ete bobungisa mpiko na bino te likolo ya pasi oyo ngai nazali komona mpo na bino, pamba te ezali nde nkembo na bino.
14 For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Yango wana nafukamaka liboso ya Tata
15 of whom the whole family in the heavens and on earth is named,
oyo apesaka bomoi na mabota nyonso kati na Likolo mpe awa na mabele,
16 that He may give to you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened through His Spirit with might, in regard to the inner man,
mpo na kobondela ete alendisa bino na nguya, mpo na bolamu ya bomoto na bino ya kati, na nzela ya Molimo na Ye kolanda bomengo ya nkembo na Ye,
17 that the Christ may dwell through the faith in your hearts, having been rooted and founded in love,
mpo ete Klisto avanda kati na mitema na bino na nzela ya kondima. Nabondelaka mpe mpo ete bozwa misisa mpe bolenda kati na bolingo,
18 that you may be in strength to comprehend, with all the holy ones, what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height,
mpo ete bozwa nguya ya kososola elongo na basantu nyonso monene, molayi, mokuse mpe bozindo ya bolingo ya Klisto,
19 to know also the love of the Christ that is exceeding the knowledge, that you may be filled—to all the fullness of God;
mpe mpo ete bozwa nguya ya koyeba bolingo yango ya Klisto, oyo eleki boyebi nyonso, na tina ete botondisama kino na bofuluki nyonso ya Nzambe.
20 and to Him who is able to do exceedingly [and] abundantly above all things that we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,
Epai na Ye oyo azali na makoki ya kosala koleka nyonso oyo tokoki kosenga to kokanisa, kolanda nguya na Ye, oyo esalaka kati na biso,
