Efesiana 1
1 I Paoly, Firàhe’ Iesoà Norizañey ty amy satrin’ Añahare. Ho amo noro’e Efesosy añe naho migahiñe am’ Iesoà Norizañeio.
Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, that is, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Hasoa ama’ areo naho Fañanintsiñe boak’ aman’ Añahare Raentika naho Iesoà Talè Norizañey.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
3 Andriañeñe t’i Andrianañahare naho Rae’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey, i mitahy antika amy Norizañey amy ze hene falalàn’ arofo andindìñe ao,
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ;
4 ie nijoboñe’e ho ama’e taolo’ o mananta’ ty voatse toio, am-pikokoañe ho masiñe tsy aman-kakeo añatrefa’e,
just as He[F] chose us in Him[S] before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him[F], in love,
5 ie nisafiry haehae ho antika te ho beize’e ho ana’e añam’ Iesoà Norizañey, ty amy hasoam-pisafiria’ey.
having predestined us into an adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, into Him[S], according to the good pleasure of His[F] will,
6 Ho fandrengeañe ty volonahem-patarihañe nañisoha’e antika amy Ikokoañey.
to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He graced us in the Beloved;
7 Ama’e ty fañeferañe antika amy lio’ey, ty fañahan-kakeo ty amy hasoam-pañisoha’e
in whom we have the redemption through His[S] blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His[F] grace,
8 nampitoabore’e aman-tika an-kaliforan-kihitse naho faharofoanañe,
that He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and intelligent design,
9 ie nampahafohine’e i safiry nisatrie’e añ’etake ao,
having made known to us the ‘secret’ of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him[S],
10 ze ho henefe’e an-tsà añoñe: ty fanontonañe amy Norizañey ze he’e andindìñe añe naho an-tane atoy.
with a view to administering the fullness of the times, so as to bring all things together under one head in Christ—those on the heavens and those on the earth—in Him[S],
11 Ie ka ty nahazoan-tika lova—itika nijoboñeñe haehae ami’ty fandrefea’ i mañeneke ze he’e ami’ty ereñeren-tsatrin’ arofo’ey,
in whom we were also assigned an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of Him[F] who works all things according to the decision of His will,
12 soa te ho fandrengeañe i asi’ey tika nitamà i Norizañey valoha’e.
so that we should be to the praise of His glory, we who first trusted in the Christ;
13 Ama’e ao ka nahareo ie jinanji’ areo ty tsaran-katò, i talili-soa nandrombahañe anahareoy, ie niatoa’ areo ro vinoli-fitomboke amy Arofo Masiñe nampitamaeñey;
about whom, to be sure, we had heard the true Word—the Gospel of your salvation; by whom, since you also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
14 i natolotse ho tsoa’ i lovantikañeiy ampara’ ty fijebañañe o azeo, ho ami’ty fandrengeañe mañeva i asi’ey.
who is the down payment on our inheritance until the release of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
15 Aa izaho ka, ie tsinanoko ty fatokisañe Iesoà Talè ama’ areo, naho ty fikokoa’ areo o noro’e iabio,
Because of this, having heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,
16 le tsy adoko ty fañandriañañe ty ama’ areo, ie toñonako an-kalàliko
I really do not stop giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
17 te ho toloran’ Añaharen-Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey, i Raem-bolonahetsey, ty Arofon-kihihitse naho famentabentarañe hahafohinañe aze,
that the God of our Lord, Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the real knowledge of Himself,
18 naho te ho hazavaeñe o fihainon’ arofo’ areoo, hahafohina’ areo i fampitamàñe nikanjiañe anahareoy, naho ty vara aman’ enge’ i lova’e amo noro’eoy,
the eyes of your heart having been enlightened, that you may know 1) what is the hope of His[F] calling, and 2) what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
19 vaho ty hajabahinan-kaozara’e amantika mpiato, ty amy fitoloña’ i hafatraran-kaozara’e
and 3) what the exceeding greatness of His power into us who are believing, according to the demonstration of the extent of His might
20 nifanehafa’e amy Norizañeiy, ie vinaño’e an-kavilasy vaho nampiambesare’e am-pitàn-kavana’e andindìñe ao,
which He exercised in the Christ when He raised Him[S] from among the dead and seated Him at His[F] right, in the heavenly realms,
21 ambone andikera’ ze hene lily naho haozarañe naho fifeheañe vaho ze kila tahinañe toñoneñe, tsy ami’ty sa toy avao, fa amy ho aviy ka. (aiōn g165)
far above every ruler and authority and power and dominion—even every name that can be named, not only in this age but also in the next. (aiōn g165)
22 Mbore napo’e ambanem-pandia’e ao ze he’e, vaho natolo’e aze ty ho lohà’ ze halifora’e amo Fivorio —
In short, He[F] placed everything under His[S] feet, and appointed Him to be Head over everything in the Church,
23 i fañòva’ey, ty hahenefa’ i mañatseke ze he’e an-kalifora’ey.
which is His body, the complement of Him who fills everything in every way.
