Efeso 6
1 Ang'inya simi pihi ku aleli ni anyu mu Mukulu, ku ndogoelyo iyi inge tai ane.
CHILDREN, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2 ''Mukulye u Tata nu ako nu ia nu ako (ndogoelyo iyi lulo ilagiilyo ni la ng'wandyo ni ukete wigombya).
Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise; )
3 ''Iti itule bahu kitalanyu hangi muhume kikie likalo luliipu migulya ihi''.
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
4 Nu nyenye a Tata, muleke kuahumya ikuo iang'inya nu kuasakiilya ikuo, badala akwe, Aleli mu uhuguligwa ni malagiilyo a Mukulu.
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
5 Nye atungwa tuli nu lwijo ku akulu ni anyu nia apa mihi ku ikulyo ikulu nu ukagati ku woa nu upumiie mu nkolo ni anyu. Mutule nu lwijo kitalao anga lulo ni mu mukuiye u Kristo.
Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
6 Ikulyo ni lanyu lileke udu pang'wanso i akulu ni anyu ni akumugoza iti kualoeelya. Badala akwe, tuli nu lwijo anga atungwa ang'wa Kristo. Itumi u ulowa nua ng'wi Itunda kupuma mu nkolo ni anyu.
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
7 Atumikili ku nkolo nianyu yihi, kunsoko mukumutumikila Mukulu hangi ang'wi shanga bina adamu,
With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
8 Mutakiwe kulinga kina mu kila ntendo ninza u muntu nu kituma, ukisingiilya isongeelyo kupuma ku Mukulu, Anga itule inge mutungwa ang'wi muntu mulyuuku.
Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
9 Nu nyenye akulu itumi zizo ziizoo ku atungwa anyu, leki kuatumbi ize mulingile kina nuanso nuailee mukulu nua ihi inge yuyo nu koli kilunde. Ize mulingile kina kutili u ukuli nua uteele mukati akwe.
And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
10 Panyambele, Tuli ni ngulu mu mukulu nu mu uhumu nua ngulu ni akwe.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Tugali i yigi yihi ni ang'wi Itunda, iti kina mulije kimika nsuta nu ulugu nua mulugu.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 Kunsoko i mbita itu shanga a sakami ang'wi a nyama, ila inge kikilya nu utemi ni ngulu nia ng'wau ng'welu ni ahumi nia unkumbigulu nua ubii ni kiti, kikilya nia hing'wi mu nkika nia kilunde. (aiōn g165)
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (aiōn g165)
13 Ku lulo, Tugali i yigi yihi ni ang'wi Itunda, iti muhume kimika ikomu ki kilya nu ubii mu itungo ili ni bii. Ze yakilaa kumala kila i kintu, mukimika ikomu.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Panyambele imeki ikomu, itumi izi ze yakilaa kutulaa matungaa umushipi mu tai ni tai ane mu kikua.
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 Itumi izi ize matulaa mutugae u ukondaniili mu migulu anyu nua kutanantya nkani ninza nia ulyuuku.
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Mu kila hali ize muhoile inguta nia ulyuuku, niiza ikuuhumya kumilimisa i miyi na uyo umubii.
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 Tugali i nkompila nia ugunwa nia panga nia ng'wau ng'welu, niiza inge lukani nu lang'wi Itunda.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Palung'wi ni malompi ni ipolya, lompi ku ng'wau ng'welu kila itungo, ku ulomeeli uwu tuli miakendegeeli kila itungo ku ugimya wihi ni malompi kunsoko a ahuiili ihi.
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
19 Lompi ku nsoko ane, iti ni nkiiligwe u utungwaa ni nikalugula u mulomo nu ane. Lompi kina ni alingase ku ugimya i tai ni pihile kutula nkani ninza.
And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 Inge kunsoko a nkani ninza unene ni balozi nai ntungilwe i minyororo, iti kina mukati ao ndigitye ku ugimya anga ni ndigwe kuligitya.
For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
21 Kuiti unyenye ga mulinge imakani ane ni mpyani ni nongolekile. Tikiko muluna nu ane mulowa hangi munyamilimo ni muhuiili mu Mukulu, wikamupikiilya kila i kintu.
But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
22 Numulagiiye kitalanyu ku isigo ili lyenso ikulu, iti kina mulinge i makani kutula usese, Ahume kumupoeelya i nkolo ni anyu.
Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
23 Ulyuuku nu utule ku aluna, u ulowa palung'wi nu ulyuuku kupuma kung'wi itunda. Tata nu mukulu u Yesu Kristo.
Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Ukende nu utule palung'wi ni ihi ni amuloilwe u Mukulu u Yesu Kristo ku ulowa wuwo ni shanga wikuzaa.
Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. Written from Rome unto the Ephesians by Tychicus.
