Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Neema iyelai kwa yhomo ni amani yayihomela kwa K'yara Dadi wa yhoto na Bwana Yesu Kristu.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 K'yara na Dadi wa Bwana wa yhoto Yesu Kristu apelibhuayi sifa. Nando muene ya atubaliki kwa kila baraka sa kiroho, kup'etela sehemu sa kumbinguni mugati mwa Kristu.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.
4 Kabula ya kubhombibhwa ulimwengu, K'yara atuchaguili tete yatiamini kup'etela kristu. Atuchaguili tete ili tubhwesyai kuya bhatakatifu na twatilaumika lepi palongolo pa muene.
For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love
5 Ku'petela lipendo K'yara atuchaguili kamuandi kwa kututwaa kujo bhana munu kwa njia ya Yesu Kristu. Aketili naa kwa ndabha apendisibhu kuketa kela kaatamaniayi.
He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,
6 Matokeo ghaki yakuwa K'yara itukusibhwa kwa neema ya utukufu bhuake. eke ndo kaatupelili bhuaka kwanjela ya mpendwa bhuake.
to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.
7 wa ndabha kup'etela mpendwa bhuake, tuyeni uleobubhosi kup'etela muasi wamuene, msamaa was thambi. Tu yenalu ele ndabha ya utajili wa neema sya muene.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
8 Aketili neema eye ujelai nyingi kwajia yhoto ndabha ya hekima ni kuyelebhwa.
that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
9 K'yara aketili imanyikanai ukueli wa ujisighili wa mipango, kutokana ni hamu yaidhihilishi bhu mugati mwa Kristu.
And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ
10 Magono ghatimiliki utimilifu ki mpango wa muene, K'yara alasibheka kila khenu pamonga fya kumbinguni ni fya panani fya mund'ema mugati mwa Kristu.
as a plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ.
11 Kup'etela kristu twamalili kuchagulibhwa na kusudi bhwa kabula ya magono. Eye yayele kubhonekana kwa mpango ya iketa fhenu fyoa kusudi la mapenzi gha muene.
In Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will,
12 K'yara aketili naa ili ndabha tubhwesya kuya ni noli sya utukufu bhuake. Tayele bhakuanza kuya ni ukifu mugati mwa Kristu.
in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of His glory.
13 yele kwanjela ya Kristu kujo mwapeliki lilobhila ukueli, injili ya bhuokovu bhuino kwa njela ya Kristu. Yayele kup'etela muene kabhele kujo mhamini ni kus'opibhwa mhuri wa Roho N'takatifu yaabhaahidi.
And in Him, having heard and believed the word of truth—the gospel of your salvation—you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
14 Roho ndo zamana ya ulisi wa yhoto hadi umiliki pa wilota kupatikana. Eye yayele ndabha ya noli ya utukufu wa muene.
who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.
15 Kwa ndabha eye, toka magono panap'elekai imani ya yhomo mugati mwa Bwana Yesu ni kup'etela lipenzi linhu kwa bhala bhoa yabhatengibhu kup'etela muene.
For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
16 Nilekili he kumshukuru K'yara kwajia ya yhomo ni kubhataja kup'etela maombi ghangu.
I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,
17 Nis'oma yandabha K'yara wa Bwana wa yhoto Yesu Kristu, Dadi wa utukufu, alabhapela roho ya hekima, mafunuo gha ufahamu bhuake.
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him.
18 Nis'oma yandabha mihu gha yhomo gha mmiteema ghasopi bhwa nulu kwa muenga ni kumanya bholoki ukifu wakukutibhwa kwa yhomo. Nis'oma ya kuwa mmanyai utajili wa utukufu wa ulisi bhuake mwa bhala yabhatengibhu ndabha ya muene.
I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints,
19 Nis'oma ndabha umanyai ubhaa wauzidili nghofo syaki mugati mwayomo yabhamwiamini. Ubhaa obho ni kubhonekana kubhomba mbhombho kup'etela nghofo syake.
and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength,
20 Eye ndo nghofo yaya fwanyai mbhombho mugati mwayomo Kristu magono K'yara paamfufulai kuhomela ku wafu ni kumtamika mkibhoko Kya muene Kya kulia kup'etela mahali pa kumbinguni.
which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms,
21 Atamiki Kristu panani ni patali ni utawala, mamlaka, nghofo, enzi, ni kila lihina lali tajibhwa. Atamika Yesu si kwa magono agha ni magono gha ghihida kabhele. (aiōn g165)
far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. (aiōn g165)
22 K'yara afitishili fhenu fyoa pasi pa magolo gha Kristu. Amfwanyili muene mutu kunani mu fhenu fyoa mu likanisa.
And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church,
23 Ndo mulikanisa kujobhe ndo mbhele wa muene, ukamilifu wa muene kujaza fhenu fyoa kup'etela njela syoa.
which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
