< Ephesians 2 >

1 You were made alive when you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
και υμας οντας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν και ταις αμαρτιαις
2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience; (aiōn g165)
εν αις ποτε περιεπατησατε κατα τον αιωνα του κοσμου τουτου κατα τον αρχοντα της εξουσιας του αερος του πνευματος του νυν ενεργουντος εν τοις υιοις της απειθειας (aiōn g165)
3 among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
εν οις και ημεις παντες ανεστραφημεν ποτε εν ταις επιθυμιαις της σαρκος ημων ποιουντες τα θεληματα της σαρκος και των διανοιων και ημεν τεκνα φυσει οργης ως και οι λοιποι
4 But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
ο δε θεος πλουσιος ων εν ελεει δια την πολλην αγαπην αυτου ην ηγαπησεν ημας
5 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Messiah (by grace you have been saved),
και οντας ημας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν συνεζωοποιησεν τω χριστω χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι
6 and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Messiah Yeshua,
και συνηγειρεν και συνεκαθισεν εν τοις επουρανιοις εν χριστω ιησου
7 that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Messiah Yeshua; (aiōn g165)
ινα ενδειξηται εν τοις αιωσιν τοις επερχομενοις τον υπερβαλλοντα πλουτον της χαριτος αυτου εν χρηστοτητι εφ ημας εν χριστω ιησου (aiōn g165)
8 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
τη γαρ χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι δια της πιστεως και τουτο ουκ εξ υμων θεου το δωρον
9 not of works, that no one would boast.
ουκ εξ εργων ινα μη τις καυχησηται
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Messiah Yeshua for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
αυτου γαρ εσμεν ποιημα κτισθεντες εν χριστω ιησου επι εργοις αγαθοις οις προητοιμασεν ο θεος ινα εν αυτοις περιπατησωμεν
11 Therefore remember that once you, the non-Jews in the flesh, who are called "uncircumcision" by that which is called "circumcision," (in the flesh, made by hands);
διο μνημονευετε οτι υμεις ποτε τα εθνη εν σαρκι οι λεγομενοι ακροβυστια υπο της λεγομενης περιτομης εν σαρκι χειροποιητου
12 that you were at that time separate from Messiah, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
οτι ητε εν τω καιρω εκεινω χωρις χριστου απηλλοτριωμενοι της πολιτειας του ισραηλ και ξενοι των διαθηκων της επαγγελιας ελπιδα μη εχοντες και αθεοι εν τω κοσμω
13 But now in Messiah Yeshua you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Messiah.
νυνι δε εν χριστω ιησου υμεις οι ποτε οντες μακραν εγγυς εγενηθητε εν τω αιματι του χριστου
14 For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,
αυτος γαρ εστιν η ειρηνη ημων ο ποιησας τα αμφοτερα εν και το μεσοτοιχον του φραγμου λυσας
15 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;
την εχθραν εν τη σαρκι αυτου τον νομον των εντολων εν δογμασιν καταργησας ινα τους δυο κτιση εν εαυτω εις ενα καινον ανθρωπον ποιων ειρηνην
16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by which he put to death their enmity.
και αποκαταλλαξη τους αμφοτερους εν ενι σωματι τω θεω δια του σταυρου αποκτεινας την εχθραν εν αυτω
17 He came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.
και ελθων ευηγγελισατο ειρηνην υμιν τοις μακραν και τοις εγγυς
18 For through him we both have our access in one Ruach to the Father.
οτι δι αυτου εχομεν την προσαγωγην οι αμφοτεροι εν ενι πνευματι προς τον πατερα
19 So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the kadoshim, and of the household of God,
αρα ουν ουκετι εστε ξενοι και παροικοι αλλα συμπολιται των αγιων και οικειοι του θεου
20 being built on the foundation of the emissaries and prophets, Messiah Yeshua himself being the chief cornerstone;
εποικοδομηθεντες επι τω θεμελιω των αποστολων και προφητων οντος ακρογωνιαιου αυτου ιησου χριστου
21 in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
εν ω πασα η οικοδομη συναρμολογουμενη αυξει εις ναον αγιον εν κυριω
22 in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Ruach.
εν ω και υμεις συνοικοδομεισθε εις κατοικητηριον του θεου εν πνευματι
