< Aefeso 3 >
1 Nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtũmi gĩkĩ, niĩ Paũlũ, njohetwo nĩ ũndũ wa kũhunjia ũhoro wa Kristũ Jesũ kũrĩ inyuĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ:
Of this Because I myself Paul the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles;
2 Ti-itherũ nĩmũiguĩte ũhoro wa ũrĩa ndaheirwo ũtungata wa wega wa Ngai nĩ ũndũ wanyu,
If indeed you have heard of the administration of the grace of God which having been given to me toward you
3 na nĩguo ũhoro wa hitho ũrĩa ndaamenyithirio na ũndũ wa kũguũrĩrio nĩ Ngai, o ta ũrĩa nyandĩkĩte na njĩra nguhĩ.
for by revelation (He made known *N(k)O*) to me the mystery even as I have written before in brief,
4 Mwathoma ũhoro ũyũ, nĩmũkũhota kũmenya ũrĩa ndaakuũkĩirwo nĩ ũhoro ũcio wa hitho wa Kristũ,
by which you are able reading [it] to understand the insight of mine into the mystery of Christ,
5 ũrĩa ũtaamenyithirio andũ a njiarwa ingĩ, ta ũrĩa rĩu ũguũrĩirio atũmwo a Ngai atheru o na anabii nĩ Roho.
which (in *k*) in other generations not was made known to the sons of men as now it has been revealed to the holy apostles of His and to [his] prophets in [the] Spirit,
6 Naguo mũbango wa Ngai nĩ atĩ, andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ nĩmatuĩkĩte agai hamwe na andũ a Isiraeli, na nĩmatuĩkĩte ciĩga cia mwĩrĩ ũmwe, na makagwatanĩra thĩinĩ wa kĩĩranĩro gĩa Kristũ Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wa kũhunjĩrio Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
being the Gentiles joint-heirs and a joint-body and joint-partakers of the promise (of him *k*) in (*k*) Christ (Jesus *NO*) through the gospel,
7 Ndaatuĩkire ndungata ya Ũhoro-ũcio-Mwega nĩ ũndũ wa kĩheo kĩrĩa ndaaheirwo kĩa wega wa Ngai hotithĩtio nĩ hinya wake.
of which (I would be *N(k)O*) servant according to the gift of the grace of God (which having been given *N(k)O*) to me according to the working of the power of Him.
8 O na gũtuĩka nĩ niĩ mũnini mũno harĩ andũ a Ngai othe, nĩndaheirwo wega ũcio: nĩguo hunjagĩrie andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ ũtonga wa Kristũ ũrĩa ũtangĩmenyeka ũrĩa ũigana,
To me myself the very least of all (of the *k*) saints was given grace this, (among *k*) the Gentiles to evangelise (the *N(k)O*) unsearchable (riches *N(k)O*) of Christ
9 na ndaũragĩre andũ othe ũhoro wa hitho ĩno, ĩrĩa ĩtũire ĩhithĩtwo kuuma o tene, thĩinĩ wa Ngai o we wombire indo ciothe. (aiōn )
and to enlighten all what [is] the (administration *N(K)O*) of the mystery which hidden from the ages in God the [One] who all things having created (through Jesus Christ *K*) (aiōn )
10 Itua rĩake rĩarĩ atĩ, na ũndũ wa kanitha, ũũgĩ wa Ngai ũrĩa wa mĩthemba mĩingĩ ũmenyithanio kũrĩ aathani, na kũrĩ arĩa marĩ na ũhoti kũu igũrũ,
so that may be made known now to the rulers and to the authorities in the heavenly realms through the church the manifold wisdom of God
11 kũringana na ũrĩa aatũire atanyĩte gwĩka kuuma o tene, na ũrĩa aahingirie arĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ, Mwathani witũ. (aiōn )
according to [the] purpose of the ages, which He accomplished in (*no*) Christ Jesus the Lord of us, (aiōn )
12 Na ithuĩ nĩ ũndũ wa gũkorwo tũrĩ thĩinĩ wake, na nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia, no tũthengerere Ngai tũrĩ na ũmĩrĩru, na tũtarĩ na guoya.
in whom we have boldness and (*k*) access in confidence through the faith from Him.
13 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũmũthaitha mũtikoorwo nĩ hinya tondũ wa mĩnyamaro ĩrĩa ndĩranyariirwo nayo nĩ ũndũ wanyu, tondũ nĩyo riiri wanyu.
Therefore I implore [you] not to lose heart at the tribulations of mine for you, which is glory of you.
14 Ũndũ ũcio nĩguo ũtũmaga ndurie ndu ndĩ mbere ya Ithe witũ,
of this Because I bow the knees of mine to the Father (of the Lord of us Jesus Christ *K*)
15 o we ũrĩa andũ othe a nyũmba yake, arĩa marĩ igũrũ na arĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩ metanagio nake.
from whom every family in [the] heavens and on earth is named,
16 Nĩhooyaga Ngai, atĩ kuuma ũtonga-inĩ wa riiri wake, amũheage hinya, nĩgeetha mũhotithĩtio nĩ Roho wake-rĩ, mũgĩe na ũhoti thĩinĩ wanyu,
that (He may give *N(k)O*) you according to (the riches *N(k)O*) of the glory of Him with power to be strengthened through the Spirit of Him in the inner man,
17 nĩgeetha Kristũ atũũrage ngoro-inĩ cianyu na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia. Na ningĩ nĩhooyaga atĩ inyuĩ mũhaandwo nĩguo mũgĩe na mĩri na mwĩkindĩre thĩinĩ wa wendani,
[for] to dwell Christ through faith in the hearts of you in love rooted and founded,
18 nĩguo mũgĩe na hinya, mũrĩ hamwe na andũ arĩa angĩ othe aamũre, na mũhotage kũmenya ũrĩa wendani wa Kristũ waramĩte, na ũrĩa ũraihĩte na igũrũ, na ũrĩa ũrikĩte na thĩ,
so that you may be fully able to grasp with all the saints what [is] the breadth and length and height and depth
19 o na mũmenye wendani ũcio ũkĩrĩte ũmenyo wothe, nĩguo mũiyũrĩrĩrio na ũiyũru wothe wa Ngai.
to know then which is surpassing knowledge love of Christ, so that you may be filled unto all the fullness of God.
20 Na rĩrĩ, kũrĩ Ngai ũrĩa ũhotaga gwĩka maũndũ marĩa mothe tũmũũragia kana tũgeciiria, na agakĩrĩrĩria mũno kũringana na ũhoti wake ũrĩa ũrutaga wĩra thĩinĩ witũ-rĩ,
To the [One] now being able above all things to do super overexcessively super overexcessively super overexcessively that we ask or we think according to the power which is working in us,
21 arogoocwo thĩinĩ wa kanitha na thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ, o nginya njiarwa-inĩ ciothe, tene na tene! Ameni. (aiōn )
to Him [be] the glory in the church (and *no*) in Christ Jesus to all the generations of the age of the ages, Amen. (aiōn )
