Ephesians 3
1 For this cause [[I bend my knees]], I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you gentiles;
ato heto rbhinnajAtIyAnAM yuShmAkaM nimittaM yIshukhrIShTasya bandI yaH so. ahaM paulo bravImi|
2 if, indeed, ye heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given me toward you,
yuShmadartham IshvareNa mahyaM dattasya varasya niyamaH kIdR^ishastad yuShmAbhirashrAvIti manye|
3 that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,
arthataH pUrvvaM mayA saMkShepeNa yathA likhitaM tathAhaM prakAshitavAkyeneshvarasya nigUDhaM bhAvaM j nApito. abhavaM|
4 whereby, when ye read, ye may perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ;
ato yuShmAbhistat paThitvA khrIShTamadhi tasminnigUDhe bhAve mama j nAnaM kIdR^ishaM tad bhotsyate|
5 which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it hath now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
pUrvvayugeShu mAnavasantAnAstaM j nApitA nAsan kintvadhunA sa bhAvastasya pavitrAn preritAn bhaviShyadvAdinashcha pratyAtmanA prakAshito. abhavat;
6 that the gentiles are fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers with us of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel;
arthata Ishvarasya shakteH prakAshAt tasyAnugraheNa yo varo mahyam adAyi tenAhaM yasya susaMvAdasya parichArako. abhavaM,
7 of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God, given to me according to the effectual working of his power.
tadvArA khrIShTena bhinnajAtIyA anyaiH sArddham ekAdhikArA ekasharIrA ekasyAH pratij nAyA aMshinashcha bhaviShyantIti|
8 To me, who am less than the least of all saints, was this grace given, to make known among the gentiles the glad tidings of the unsearchable riches of Christ,
sarvveShAM pavitralokAnAM kShudratamAya mahyaM varo. ayam adAyi yad bhinnajAtIyAnAM madhye bodhAgayasya guNanidheH khrIShTasya ma NgalavArttAM prachArayAmi,
9 to make all men see what is the dispensation of the mystery, which hath been hidden for ages in God, who created all things; (aiōn g165)
kAlAvasthAtaH pUrvvasmAchcha yo nigUDhabhAva Ishvare gupta AsIt tadIyaniyamaM sarvvAn j nApayAmi| (aiōn g165)
10 to the intent that now to the principalities and powers in the heavenly regions might be known through the church the manifold wisdom of God,
yata Ishvarasya nAnArUpaM j nAnaM yat sAmprataM samityA svarge prAdhAnyaparAkramayuktAnAM dUtAnAM nikaTe prakAshyate tadarthaM sa yIshunA khrIShTena sarvvANi sR^iShTavAn|
yato vayaM yasmin vishvasya dR^iDhabhaktyA nirbhayatAm Ishvarasya samAgame sAmarthya ncha
12 in whom we have our boldness and our access in confidence, through faith in him.
prAptavantastamasmAkaM prabhuM yIshuM khrIShTamadhi sa kAlAvasthAyAH pUrvvaM taM manorathaM kR^itavAn| (aiōn g165)
13 Wherefore I entreat you not to be disheartened by the troubles I am suffering for you, since they are your glory.
ato. ahaM yuShmannimittaM duHkhabhogena klAntiM yanna gachChAmIti prArthaye yatastadeva yuShmAkaM gauravaM|
14 For this cause I bend my knees to the Father,
ato hetoH svargapR^ithivyoH sthitaH kR^itsno vaMsho yasya nAmnA vikhyAtastam
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth receiveth its name,
asmatprabho ryIshukhrIShTasya pitaramuddishyAhaM jAnunI pAtayitvA tasya prabhAvanidhito varamimaM prArthaye|
16 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
tasyAtmanA yuShmAkam AntarikapuruShasya shakte rvR^iddhiH kriyatAM|
17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, ye having been rooted and grounded in love,
khrIShTastu vishvAsena yuShmAkaM hR^idayeShu nivasatu| premaNi yuShmAkaM baddhamUlatvaM susthiratva ncha bhavatu|
18 that ye may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height,
itthaM prasthatAyA dIrghatAyA gabhIratAyA uchchatAyAshcha bodhAya sarvvaiH pavitralokaiH prApyaM sAmarthyaM yuShmAbhi rlabhyatAM,
19 and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled unto all the fullness of God.
j nAnAtiriktaM khrIShTasya prema j nAyatAm Ishvarasya sampUrNavR^iddhiparyyantaM yuShmAkaM vR^iddhi rbhavatu cha|
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
asmAkam antare yA shaktiH prakAshate tayA sarvvAtiriktaM karmma kurvvan asmAkaM prArthanAM kalpanA nchAtikramituM yaH shaknoti
