Waefeso 1
1 Paulo, n'tume wa Yesu Kristu kwa mapenzi gha K'yara, kwa bhabhatengibhu kwajia ya k'yara bhabhayele Efeso na ndo bhaaminifu kup'etela kristo Yesu.
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Neema iyelai kwa yhomo ni amani yayihomela kwa K'yara Dadi wa yhoto na Bwana Yesu Kristu.
Grace [be] to you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] 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 hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly [places] in Christ:
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.
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him 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.
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, 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 the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
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 whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
8 Aketili neema eye ujelai nyingi kwajia yhoto ndabha ya hekima ni kuyelebhwa.
Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
9 K'yara aketili imanyikanai ukueli wa ujisighili wa mipango, kutokana ni hamu yaidhihilishi bhu mugati mwa Kristu.
Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
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.
That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; [even] in him:
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 whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
12 K'yara aketili naa ili ndabha tubhwesya kuya ni noli sya utukufu bhuake. Tayele bhakuanza kuya ni ukifu mugati mwa Kristu.
That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
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.
In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Roho ndo zamana ya ulisi wa yhoto hadi umiliki pa wilota kupatikana. Eye yayele ndabha ya noli ya utukufu wa muene.
Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto 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.
Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Nilekili he kumshukuru K'yara kwajia ya yhomo ni kubhataja kup'etela maombi ghangu.
Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of 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 Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the 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.
The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his 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 what [is] the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
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 wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set [him] at his own right hand in the heavenly [places],
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 principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is 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 hath put all [things] under his feet, and gave him [to be] the head over all [things] to 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 fulness of him that filleth all in all.
