इफिसियों 5
Be ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children;
2 २ और प्रेम में चलो जैसे मसीह ने भी तुम से प्रेम किया; और हमारे लिये अपने आपको सुखदायक सुगन्ध के लिये परमेश्वर के आगे भेंट करके बलिदान कर दिया।
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.
3 ३ जैसा पवित्र लोगों के योग्य है, वैसा तुम में व्यभिचार, और किसी प्रकार के अशुद्ध काम, या लोभ की चर्चा तक न हो।
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:
4 ४ और न निर्लज्जता, न मूर्खता की बातचीत की, न उपहास किया, क्योंकि ये बातें शोभा नहीं देती, वरन् धन्यवाद ही सुना जाए।
Or obscenity, or foolish talking, or scurrility, which is to no purpose; but rather giving of thanks.
5 ५ क्योंकि तुम यह जानते हो कि किसी व्यभिचारी, या अशुद्ध जन, या लोभी मनुष्य की, जो मूर्तिपूजक के बराबर है, मसीह और परमेश्वर के राज्य में विरासत नहीं।
For know you this and understand, that no fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person (which is a serving of idols), hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 ६ कोई तुम्हें व्यर्थ बातों से धोखा न दे; क्योंकि इन ही कामों के कारण परमेश्वर का क्रोध आज्ञा न माननेवालों पर भड़कता है।
Let no man deceive you with vain words. For because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the children of unbelief.
Be ye not therefore partakers with them.
For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.
For the fruit of the light is in all goodness, and justice, and truth;
Proving what is well pleasing to God:
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.
13 १३ पर जितने कामों पर उलाहना दिया जाता है वे सब ज्योति से प्रगट होते हैं, क्योंकि जो सब कुछ को प्रगट करता है, वह ज्योति है।
But all things that are reproved, are made manifest by the light; for all that is made manifest is light.
14 १४ इस कारण वह कहता है, “हे सोनेवाले जाग और मुर्दों में से जी उठ; तो मसीह की ज्योति तुझ पर चमकेगी।”
Wherefore he saith: Rise thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.
15 १५ इसलिए ध्यान से देखो, कि कैसी चाल चलते हो; निर्बुद्धियों के समान नहीं पर बुद्धिमानों के समान चलो।
See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,
But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Wherefore become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God.
And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury; but be ye filled with the holy Spirit,
19 १९ और आपस में भजन और स्तुतिगान और आत्मिक गीत गाया करो, और अपने-अपने मन में प्रभु के सामने गाते और स्तुति करते रहो।
Speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord;
Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:
Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ.
Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord:
23 २३ क्योंकि पति तो पत्नी का सिर है जैसे कि मसीह कलीसिया का सिर है; और आप ही देह का उद्धारकर्ता है।
Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body.
Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things.
25 २५ हे पतियों, अपनी-अपनी पत्नी से प्रेम रखो, जैसा मसीह ने भी कलीसिया से प्रेम करके अपने आपको उसके लिये दे दिया,
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it:
That he might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life:
27 २७ और उसे एक ऐसी तेजस्वी कलीसिया बनाकर अपने पास खड़ी करे, जिसमें न कलंक, न झुर्री, न कोई ऐसी वस्तु हो, वरन् पवित्र और निर्दोष हो।
That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any; such thing; but that it should be holy, and without blemish.
28 २८ इसी प्रकार उचित है, कि पति अपनी-अपनी पत्नी से अपनी देह के समान प्रेम रखे, जो अपनी पत्नी से प्रेम रखता है, वह अपने आप से प्रेम रखता है।
So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.
29 २९ क्योंकि किसी ने कभी अपने शरीर से बैर नहीं रखा वरन् उसका पालन-पोषण करता है, जैसा मसीह भी कलीसिया के साथ करता है।
For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:
Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh.
This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church.
Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.
