Ephesians 3
1 Because of this I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles.
Nkambo kacheechi ime, Pawulu, ndimwaange wa Kkilisito Jesu nkambo kandinywe bamaasi.
2 I assume that you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God that was given to me for you.
Ndasyoma kuti mwakamvwa abubanzi bwaluzyalo bwa Leza obo bwakapegwa kuli ndime nkambo kenu.
3 I am writing according to the revelation made known to me. This is the hidden truth about which I briefly wrote to you.
Ndilikulemba kwindila kuchiyubunuzyo nchindakazibisigwa. Aka nkikasimpe kasisidwe nkindaka mulembela mubufwifwi kulindinywe.
4 When you read about this, you will be able to understand my insight into this hidden truth about Christ.
Nimuyobala aatala azeezi, muyokkonzya kumvwisisisya atala a Kkilisitu.
5 In other generations this truth was not made known to the sons of men. But now it has been revealed by the Spirit to his apostles and prophets who were set apart for this work.
Kumvwisisisya kwangu muli aka kasimpe tekakazibisigwa kubana babantu. Pesi lino kayubununwa a Muuya kubatumwa bakwe basalala abasinsimi.
6 This hidden truth is that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and they share the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
Aka kasimpe kasisidwe nkakuti bamasi mbasilukkononyokwe, alimwi mbasizizonyokwe mumubili, alimwi balabilana chisyomezyo muli Kkilisito Jesu kwindila mumakani mabotu.
7 For I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God's grace given to me through the working of his power.
Eelyo ndakaba mulanda wamakani aya nkwinda kuchipo chaluzyalo lwa Leza ndwindakapegwa kwindila mukubeleka kwanguzu zyakwe.
8 This grace was given to me, although I am the least of all the saints, that I should proclaim to the Gentiles the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ,
Kuli ndime - nikuba kuti ndendime munini kuli boonse bantu ba Leza basalala - olu luzyalo wakapegwa, kukukambawuka kuli bamaasi buvubi butayanduliki bwa Kkilisitu
9 so that I will bring to light for everyone the plan—the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things. (aiōn g165)
akweta kumumuni kuli boonse mabambe - ezintu zyakasisidwe kwaminyaka myiingi muli Leza, wakalenga zintu zyoonse. (aiōn g165)
10 This plan was made known through the church so the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places would come to know the many-sided nature of the wisdom of God.
Aya mabambe akazibisigwa kwindila mumbungano kuchitila kuti bendeelezi abasinguzu bamumilenga lenga akujulu bakasike mpubaziba mabazu - mingi abube bwabusongo bwa Leza.
11 This happened according to the eternal plan that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōn g165)
Eezi zyakachitika kwindilila kumabambe atamani ayo ngakazuzikizya muli Kkilisito Jesu Mwami wesu. (aiōn g165)
12 For in Christ we have boldness and access with confidence because of our faith in him.
Eelyo muli Kkilisitu tulijisi busichaamba akuswenenena alusinizyo nkambo kalusyomo.
13 Therefore I ask you not to be discouraged because of what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.
Nkinkaako ndamukumbila kuti mutalengwani nkambo kamafwabi aangu nkefwabila ndinywe, wo mbobulemu bwenu.
14 For this reason I bend my knees to the Father,
Nkambo kaaka ndafugamina Taata amazwi aangu,
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named.
kuzwa kulinguwe zyoonse mpuli zyakujulu aansi ziluzikidwe.
16 I pray that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power through his Spirit, who is in you.
Ndakamba kuti akamupe kwindila kubuumi bwabulemu bwakwe, kuti mukasimisigwe anguzu kwinda kumuuya wakwe oyo uuli mubuntu bwenu bwamukati.
17 I pray that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, that you will be rooted and grounded in his love.
Ndakomba kuti Kkilisitu akkale mumyoyo yenu kwinda kulusyomo, miyanda yenu antalisyo muluyando lwakwe, kuchitila
18 May you have strength so you can understand, along with all the believers, what is the width, the length, the height, and the depth,
kuti muka kkonzye kumvwisisya, antoomwe aboonse bantu ba Leza basalal, kuti mbuubuli busasa, bwanda, bulamfu bwakuya kujulu akunika muluyando lwa Kkilisitu.
19 and that you may know the love of Christ, which goes beyond knowledge, and that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Akuziba luyando lwa Kkilisitu, lwiinda aluzibo, kuchitila kuti mukazule buzule bwa Leza boonse.
20 Now to him who is able to do far beyond all that we ask or think, according to his power that works in us,
Lino kuli nguwe oyo ukkonzya kuchita kwindilide kulizyoonse nzitukkumbila naa kuyeya, kwindila kunguzu zyakwe zibeleka mulindiswe,
