< Ephesians 5 >

1 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
Nítorí náà, ẹ máa ṣe àfarawé Ọlọ́run bí àwọn olùfẹ́ ọmọ,
2 And walk in love, even as Christ also loved us, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
ẹ sì máa rìn ní ìfẹ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kristi pẹ̀lú ti fẹ́ wa, tí ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ fún wa ní ọrẹ àti ẹbọ fún Ọlọ́run fún òórùn dídùn.
3 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;
Ṣùgbọ́n àgbèrè àti gbogbo ìwà èérí, tàbí ojúkòkòrò, kí a má tilẹ̀ dárúkọ rẹ̀ láàrín yín mọ́, bí ó ti yẹ àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́.
4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate; but rather giving of thanks.
Ìbá à ṣe ìwà ọ̀bùn, àti ìṣọ̀rọ̀ òmùgọ̀, tàbí ìṣẹ̀fẹ̀ àwọn ohun tí kò tọ́; ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kúkú máa dúpẹ́.
5 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral or impure or greedy person, that is, an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
Nítorí ẹ̀yin mọ èyí dájú pé, kò sí panṣágà, tàbí aláìmọ́ ènìyàn, tàbí wọ̀bìà (tí í ṣé abọ̀rìṣà), tí yóò ni ìpín kan ni ìjọba Kristi àti Ọlọ́run.
6 Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni fi ọ̀rọ̀ asán tàn yín jẹ: nítorí nípasẹ̀ nǹkan wọ̀nyí ní ìbínú Ọlọ́run fi ń bọ̀ wá sórí àwọn ọmọ aláìgbọ́ràn.
7 Therefore do not be partakers with them.
Nítorí náà ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ alájọpín pẹ̀lú wọn.
8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
Nítorí ẹ̀yin tí jẹ́ òkùnkùn lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ẹ̀yin dí ìmọ́lẹ̀, nípa tí Olúwa: ẹ máa rín gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọmọ ìmọ́lẹ̀
9 for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,
(nítorí èso Ẹ̀mí ni ìṣoore, àti òdodo àti òtítọ́).
10 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
Ẹ sì máa wádìí ohun tí í ṣe ìtẹ́wọ́gbà fún Olúwa.
11 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
Ẹ má sì ṣe bá àwọn oníṣẹ́ òkùnkùn kẹ́gbẹ́ pọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kúkú máa bá wọn wí.
12 For the things which are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.
Nítorí ìtìjú tilẹ̀ ni láti máa sọ̀rọ̀ nǹkan wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí àwọn aláìgbọ́ràn ń ṣe ní ìkọ̀kọ̀.
13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.
Ṣùgbọ́n ohun gbogbo tí a tú síta ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ ń fì hàn: nítorí ohunkóhun tí ó bá fi nǹkan hàn, ìmọ́lẹ̀ ni.
14 Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
Nítorí náà ni ó ṣe wí pé, “Jí, ìwọ̀ ẹni tí ó sun, sí jíǹde kúrò nínú òkú Kristi yóò sì fún ọ ní ìmọ́lẹ̀.”
15 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;
Nítorí náà ẹ kíyèsi láti máa rìn ní ìwà pípé, kì í ṣé bí àwọn òmùgọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n bí àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n;
16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
ẹ máa ra ìgbà padà, nítorí búburú ní àwọn ọjọ́.
17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣé jẹ aláìlóye, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ máa mòye ohun tí ìfẹ́ Olúwa jásí.
18 Do not get drunk with wine, which is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,
Ẹ má sí ṣe mú wáìnì ní àmupara, nínú èyí tí rúdurùdu wà; ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kún fún Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́.
19 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making music in your heart to the Lord;
Ẹ sì máa bá ara yín sọ̀rọ̀ nínú Saamu, àti orin ìyìn, àti orin Ẹ̀mí, ẹ máa kọrin, kí ẹ sì máa kọrin dídùn ní ọkàn yín sí Olúwa.
20 giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father;
Ẹ máa dúpẹ́ nígbà gbogbo fún ohun gbogbo lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run, àní Baba, ní orúkọ Jesu Kristi Olúwa wá.
21 subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ.
Ẹ máa tẹríba fún ara yín ní ìbẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run.
22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
Ẹ̀yin aya, ẹ máa tẹríba fún àwọn ọkọ yín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí fún Olúwa.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the savior of the body.
Nítorí pé ọkọ ni ó ń ṣe orí aya, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kristi tí i ṣe orí ìjọ, tí òun si ń ṣe ara rẹ̀, Òun sì ni Olùgbàlà rẹ̀.
24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything.
Nítorí náà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìjọ tí i tẹríba fún Kristi, bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ní kì àwọn aya máa ṣe sí ọkọ wọn ní ohun gbogbo.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;
Ẹ̀yin ọkọ, ẹ fẹ́ràn àwọn aya yín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kristi tí fẹ́ràn ìjọ, tí ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ fún un.
26 that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,
Kí òun lè sọ ọ́ di mímọ́ lẹ́yìn tí ó tí fi ọ̀rọ̀ wẹ̀ ẹ́ nínú agbada omí.
27 that he might present the church to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Kí òun lé mú un wá sọ́dọ̀ ara rẹ̀ bí ìjọ tí ó ní ògo ní àìlábàwọ́n, tàbí àlébù kan, tàbí irú nǹkan bá-wọ̀n-ọn-nì: ṣùgbọ́n kí ó lè jẹ́ mímọ́ àti aláìlábùkù.
28 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ó tọ́ kí àwọn ọkùnrin máa fẹ́ràn aya wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ara àwọn fúnra wọn.
29 For no one ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ also does the church;
Nítorí kò sì ẹnìkan tí ó ti kórìíra ara rẹ̀; bí kò ṣe pé kí ó máa bọ́ ọ kí ó sì máa ṣìkẹ́ rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kristi sì ti ń ṣe sí ìjọ.
30 because we are members of his body, of his flesh and of his bones.
Nítorí pé àwa ni ẹ̀yà ara rẹ̀, àti tí ẹran-ara rẹ̀, àti egungun ara rẹ̀.
31 "For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh."
Nítorí èyí ní ọkùnrin yóò fi baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, òun yóò sì dàpọ̀ mọ́ aya rẹ̀, àwọn méjèèjì yóò sì di ara kan.
32 This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and of the church.
Àṣírí ńlá ní èyí: ṣùgbọ́n èmí ń sọ nípá ti Kristi àti tí ìjọ.
33 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
Ṣùgbọ́n kí olúkúlùkù yín fẹ́ràn aya rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí òun fúnra rẹ̀; kí aya kí ó sì bọ̀wọ̀ fún ọkọ rẹ̀.
