< Ephesians 6 >

1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
Ry ajajao, mivohora aman-droae’ areo amy Talè ao, fa izay ty hìti’e.
2 “Honor your father and mother” (which is the first commandment with promise),
Miasia an-drae’o naho rene’o—ty lily valoha’e minday fampitamañe,
3 “so that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
soa te ho tahie’e naho ho lava haveloñ’ amy Taney ao.
4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger. Instead, raise them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
O ry rae, ko bo­sehañe ty anake, fe beizo amy fañohoañe naho famerea’ i Talè.
5 Slaves, be obedient to your human masters with deep respect and trembling, in the honesty of your heart. Be obedient to them as you would be obedient to Christ.
O ry ondevoo, mivohora ami’ty mpifehe’ areo amy haondati’ey, le ihembaño naho ititititiho an-tsò-po, manahake t’ie i Norizañey;
6 Be obedient not only when your masters are watching in order to please them. Instead, be obedient as slaves of Christ, who do the will of God from your heart.
le ko mitoroñe am-pihainom-bei-lomboke, fe hoe ondevo’ i Norizañey, mitoloñe añ’ arofo ze satrin’ Añahare,
7 Serve with all your heart, as though you were serving the Lord and not people,
mitoroña am-pilozohañe hoe amy Talè fa tsy am’ondaty,
8 because we know that for whatever good deed each person does, he will receive a reward from the Lord, whether he is slave or free.
ie fohiñe te ndra iaia manao soa, ro ho valè’ i Talè, ke t’ie ondevo, he midada.
9 Masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them. You know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him.
Ry talèo! ano manahak’ izay iereo; apoho ty fañembàñañe. Tiahio te andindìñe ao t’i Talè’ iareo naho ty azo, ie tsy mirihy.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
Hengaha’e, mihaozara amy Talè naho ami’ty hafatrara’ i haozara’ey.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the scheming plans of the devil.
Aombeo ty fikalañan’ Añahare fonitse, hatreatrè’areo ty famañahia’ i mpañìnjey;
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. (aiōn g165)
amy te tsy mifandrapake ami’ty nofotse naho lio tika, fa amo mpifelekeo, amo aman-dilio, amo mpifeleke an-kamoromoroña’ ty voatse toio, vaho amo fañahin-karatiañe añ’aboo. (aiōn g165)
13 Therefore put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand in this time of evil, and after you have done everything, to stand firm.
Aa le rambeso ze hene fikalan’ Añahare, hahafijohaña’o amy andro ratiy, le ie fonga nanoeñe, mijadoña.
14 Stand, therefore, after you have put on the belt of truth and the breastplate of righteousness.
Mijohaña arè, ie fa nisadia ty hatò, naho niombe ty fikalañan’ arañan-kahitiañe,
15 Then as shoes for your feet, put on the readiness to proclaim the gospel of peace.
vaho nihana ty fihentseñañe i talili-soam-pañanintsiñey,
16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, by which you will be able to put out all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
tovo’e, rambeso ty fikalandefom-patokisañe, hampikipefañe o ana-pale mibela’ i Ratio,
17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
endeso ka ty sabakam-pandrombahañe naho ty fibara’ i Arofoy, toe i saontsin’ Añaharey,
18 With every prayer and request, pray at all times in the Spirit. To this end, always be watching with all perseverance, as you offer prayers for all the saints.
vaho nainai’e mihalalia añ’arofo, an-doloke naho halaly iaby. Mijilova am-pigahiñañe naho am-pihalaliañe heneke ho a o fonga noro’eo.
19 And pray for me, that a message might be given to me when I open my mouth. Pray that I might make known with boldness the hidden truth about the gospel.
Mihalalia ho ahy ka, t’ie ho tolorañe ty hahafitaroñe am-palie misokake, hahavany hampandrendreke ty tafatoño’ i talili-soay,
20 It is for the gospel that I am an ambassador who is kept in chains, so that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.
ie sorotà’e an-drohy; ihalalio te hahasibeke fita­roñe ami’ty fañeva’e.
21 Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you may know how I am doing.
Aa, ty haharendreha’areo o fitoloñakoo naho ty amako, le i Tikiko, rahalahy sarotse naho mpitoroñe migahi’ i Talèy ro hampahafohiñe anahareo ze he’e.
22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know how we are, and so that he may encourage your hearts.
Izay ty nañitrifako aze mb’ama’ areo añe, hitalilia’e anay naho hañoho o arofo’ areoo.
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Fañanintsiñe amo rolongoo, naho fikokoañe am-patokisañe boak’ aman’ Añahare Rae naho Iesoà Talè Norizañey.
24 Grace be to all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an incorruptible love.
Hasoa amy ze hene mpikoko i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey an-koko tsy modo. Amena.
