Ephesians 1
1 To Christ’s people at Ephesus who are faithful to him, from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, by the will of God.
ii"svarasyecchayaa yii"sukhrii. s.tasya prerita. h paula iphi. sanagarasthaan pavitraan khrii. s.tayii"sau vi"svaasino lokaan prati patra. m likhati|
2 May God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.
asmaaka. m taatasye"svarasya prabho ryii"sukhrii. s.tasya caanugraha. h "saanti"sca yu. smaasu varttataa. m|
3 Blessed is the God and Father of Jesus Christ, our Lord, who has blessed us on high with every spiritual blessing, in Christ.
asmaaka. m prabho ryii"so. h khrii. s.tasya taata ii"svaro dhanyo bhavatu; yata. h sa khrii. s.tenaasmabhya. m sarvvam aadhyaatmika. m svargiiyavara. m dattavaan|
4 For he chose us in our union with Christ before the creation of the universe, so that we might be holy and blameless in his sight, living in the spirit of love.
vaya. m yat tasya samak. sa. m premnaa pavitraa ni. skala"nkaa"sca bhavaamastadartha. m sa jagata. h s. r.s. te puurvva. m tenaasmaan abhirocitavaan, nijaabhila. sitaanurodhaacca
5 From the first he destined us, in his goodwill towards us, to be adopted as sons through Jesus Christ,
yii"sunaa khrii. s.tena svasya nimitta. m putratvapade. asmaan svakiiyaanugrahasya mahattvasya pra"sa. msaartha. m puurvva. m niyuktavaan|
6 and so to enhance that glorious manifestation of his loving kindness which he gave us in the one he loves;
tasmaad anugrahaat sa yena priyatamena putre. naasmaan anug. rhiitavaan,
7 for in him, and through the shedding of his blood, we have found redemption in the pardon of our offences.
vaya. m tasya "so. nitena muktim arthata. h paapak. samaa. m labdhavanta. h|
8 All this accords with the loving kindness which God lavished on us, accompanied by countless gifts of wisdom and discernment,
tasya ya iid. r"so. anugrahanidhistasmaat so. asmabhya. m sarvvavidha. m j naana. m buddhi nca baahulyaruupe. na vitaritavaan|
9 when he made known to us his hidden purpose. And it also accords with the goodwill which God purposed to exhibit in Christ,
svargap. rthivyo ryadyad vidyate tatsarvva. m sa khrii. s.te sa. mgrahii. syatiiti hitai. si. naa
10 in view of that divine order which was to mark the completion of the ages, when he should make everything, both in heaven and on earth, centre in him.
tena k. rto yo manoratha. h sampuur. nataa. m gatavatsu samaye. su saadhayitavyastamadhi sa svakiiyaabhilaa. sasya niguu. dha. m bhaavam asmaan j naapitavaan|
11 In him, I say, for by our union with him we became God’s heritage, having from the first been destined for this in the intention of him who, in all that happens, is carrying out his own fixed purpose;
puurvva. m khrii. s.te vi"svaasino ye vayam asmatto yat tasya mahimna. h pra"sa. msaa jaayate,
12 that we should enhance his glory – we who have been the first to rest our hopes on the Christ.
tadartha. m ya. h svakiiyecchaayaa. h mantra. naata. h sarvvaa. ni saadhayati tasya manorathaad vaya. m khrii. s.tena puurvva. m niruupitaa. h santo. adhikaari. no jaataa. h|
13 And you, too, by your union with him, after you had heard the message of the truth, the good news of your salvation – you believed in him and were sealed as his by receiving the holy Spirit, which he had promised.
yuuyamapi satya. m vaakyam arthato yu. smatparitraa. nasya susa. mvaada. m ni"samya tasminneva khrii. s.te vi"svasitavanta. h pratij naatena pavitre. naatmanaa mudrayevaa"nkitaa"sca|
14 And the Spirit is a pledge of our future heritage, foreshadowing the full redemption of God’s own people – to enhance his glory.
yatastasya mahimna. h prakaa"saaya tena kriitaanaa. m lokaanaa. m mukti ryaavanna bhavi. syati taavat sa aatmaasmaakam adhikaaritvasya satya"nkaarasya pa. nasvaruupo bhavati|
15 And therefore I, ever since I heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which prevails among you, and of your confidence in all Christ’s people,
prabhau yii"sau yu. smaaka. m vi"svaasa. h sarvve. su pavitraloke. su prema caasta iti vaarttaa. m "srutvaahamapi
16 have never omitted to thank God on your behalf, whenever I make mention of you in my prayers.
yu. smaanadhi nirantaram ii"svara. m dhanya. m vadan praarthanaasamaye ca yu. smaan smaran varamima. m yaacaami|
17 My prayer is that the God of Jesus Christ our Lord, the all-glorious Father, may inspire you with wisdom and true insight through a fuller knowledge of himself;
asmaaka. m prabho ryii"sukhrii. s.tasya taato ya. h prabhaavaakara ii"svara. h sa svakiiyatattvaj naanaaya yu. smabhya. m j naanajanakam prakaa"sitavaakyabodhaka ncaatmaana. m deyaat|
18 that your minds may be so enlightened that you may realise the hope given by God’s call, the wealth of the glory of his heritage among Christ’s people,
yu. smaaka. m j naanacak. suu. m.si ca diiptiyuktaani k. rtvaa tasyaahvaana. m kiid. r"syaa pratyaa"sayaa sambalita. m pavitralokaanaa. m madhye tena datto. adhikaara. h kiid. r"sa. h prabhaavanidhi rvi"svaasi. su caasmaasu prakaa"samaanasya
19 and the transcendent greatness of the power which he is able to exercise in dealing with us who believe in him.
tadiiyamahaaparaakramasya mahatva. m kiid. rg anupama. m tat sarvva. m yu. smaan j naapayatu|
20 The same mighty power was exerted on the Christ, when he raised the Christ from the dead and “caused him to sit at his right hand” on high, exalting him above all angels and archangels of every rank,
yata. h sa yasyaa. h "sakte. h prabalataa. m khrii. s.te prakaa"sayan m. rtaga. namadhyaat tam utthaapitavaan,
21 and above every name that can be named, whether in the present age, or in the age to come. (aiōn g165)
adhipatitvapada. m "saasanapada. m paraakramo raajatva ncetinaamaani yaavanti padaaniiha loke paraloke ca vidyante te. saa. m sarvve. saam uurddhve svarge nijadak. si. napaar"sve tam upave"sitavaan, (aiōn g165)
22 And God placed all things under Christ’s feet, and gave him to the church as its supreme head;
sarvvaa. ni tasya cara. nayoradho nihitavaan yaa samitistasya "sariira. m sarvvatra sarvve. saa. m puurayitu. h puuraka nca bhavati ta. m tasyaa muurddhaana. m k. rtvaa
23 for the church is Christ’s body, and is filled by him who fills all things everywhere with his presence.
sarvve. saam uparyyupari niyuktavaa. m"sca saiva "saktirasmaasvapi tena prakaa"syate|
