Epeha 3
1 Na konei taku, ta Paora, he herehere nei ahau na Karaiti Ihu, hei mahi ki a koutou ki nga Tauiwi;
Τούτου χάριν ἐγὼ Παῦλος ὁ δέσμιος τοῦ Χριστοῦ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν
2 Kua rongo pea koutou ki te mahi tuari i te aroha noa o te Atua kua homai nei ki ahau, hei mea ki a koutou:
εἴγε ἠκούσατε τὴν οἰκονομίαν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι εἰς ὑμᾶς,
3 Ara tana whakakitenga, tana whakaaturanga i te mea ngaro ki ahau; he pera hoki me ena kupu torutoru i tuhituhia na e ahau i mua;
ὅτι κατὰ ἀποκάλυψιν ἐγνωρίσθη μοι τὸ μυστήριον, καθὼς προέγραψα ἐν ὀλίγῳ,
4 Ka oti i a koutou tena te korero, ka mohio koutou ki toku matauranga ki te mea ngaro a te Karaiti,
πρὸς ὃ δύνασθε ἀναγινώσκοντες νοῆσαι τὴν σύνεσίν μου ἐν τῷ μυστηρίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
5 Kihai nei i whakakitea i era atu whakatupuranga ki nga tama a te tangata, kihai i penei me te whakakitenga inaianei e te Wairua ki ana apotoro tapu ratou ko nga poropiti;
ὃ ἑτέραις γενεαῖς οὐκ ἐγνωρίσθη τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὡς νῦν ἀπεκαλύφθη τοῖς ἁγίοις ἀποστόλοις αὐτοῦ καὶ προφήταις ἐν πνεύματι,
6 Ara mo nga Tauiwi kia uru tahi ki nga taonga, kia tinana kotahi, kia whiwhi ngatahi ki ana mea i whakaari i mua i roto i a te Karaiti, he meatanga na te rongopai:
εἶναι τὰ ἔθνη συνκληρονόμα καὶ σύνσωμα καὶ συνμέτοχα τῆς ἐπαγγελίας ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου,
7 Mo reira ahau i meinga nei hei minita, i runga i ta te aroha noa o te Atua, i homai nei ki ahau, he mahinga na tona kaha.
οὗ ἐγενήθην διάκονος κατὰ τὴν δωρεὰν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι κατὰ τὴν ἐνέργειαν τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ.
8 I homai ki ahau, ki te mea iti iho i te iti rawa o te hunga tapu katoa, tenei aroha noa, kia kauwhautia e ahau i roto i nga Tauiwi te taonga o te Karaiti e kore nei e taea te rapu;
ἐμοὶ τῷ ἐλαχιστοτέρῳ πάντων ἁγίων ἐδόθη ἡ χάρις αὕτη, τοῖς ἔθνεσιν εὐαγγελίσασθαι τὸ ἀνεξιχνίαστον πλοῦτος τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
9 Kia whakakitea ano hoki e ahau ki nga tangata katoa te whiwhinga tahitanga ki te mea ngaro, ki te mea i huna nei inamata noa atu i roto i te Atua, nana nei i hanga nga mea katoa: (aiōn g165)
καὶ φωτίσαι τίς ἡ οἰκονομία τοῦ μυστηρίου τοῦ ἀποκεκρυμμένου ἀπὸ τῶν αἰώνων ἐν τῷ θεῷ τῷ τὰ πάντα κτίσαντι, (aiōn g165)
10 Kia ai te hahi inaianei hei whakaatu ki nga rangatiratanga, ki nga mana i nga wahi o te rangi, i te maha o nga whakaaro nui o te Atua.
ἵνα γνωρισθῇ νῦν ταῖς ἀρχαῖς καὶ ταῖς ἐξουσίαις ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις διὰ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἡ πολυποίκιλος σοφία τοῦ θεοῦ,
11 I runga i tana i whakatakoto ai i mua noa atu, he mea mahi nana i roto i to tatou Ariki, i a Karaiti Ihu: (aiōn g165)
κατὰ πρόθεσιν τῶν αἰώνων ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ κυρίῳ ἡμῶν, (aiōn g165)
12 Kei roto nei i a ia to tatou maiatanga me to tatou whakatatanga atu i te mea e u nei te whakaaro, he meatanga na te whakapono ki a ia.
ἐν ᾧ ἔχομεν τὴν παρρησίαν καὶ προσαγωγὴν ἐν πεποιθήσει διὰ τῆς πίστεως αὐτοῦ.
13 Koia ahau ka mea nei kia kaua koutou e ngakaukore i oku tukinotanga mo koutou; ko to koutou kororia hoki tenei.
Διὸ αἰτοῦμαι μὴ ἐνκακεῖν ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσίν μου ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, ἥτις ἐστὶν δόξα ὑμῶν.
14 No konei i tuturi ai oku turi ki te Matua, o to tatou Ariki a Ihu Karaiti,
τούτου χάριν κάμπτω τὰ γόνατά μου πρὸς τὸν πατέρα,
15 Nona nei te ingoa e huaina ana ki nga hapu katoa i te rangi, i te whenua,
ἐξ οὗ πᾶσα πατριὰ ἐν οὐρανοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς ὀνομάζεται,
16 Kia rite ki te nui rawa o tona kororia he homaitanga mana ki a koutou, kia pakari ai a roto i a koutou i te kaha o tona Wairua:
ἵνα δῷ ὑμῖν κατὰ τὸ πλοῦτος τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ δυνάμει κραταιωθῆναι διὰ τοῦ πνεύματος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον,
17 Kia noho ai a te Karaiti ki roto ki o koutou ngakau, he mea whakapono; a, i te mea kua whai pakiaka, me te whai turanga mo koutou i roto i te aroha,
κατοικῆσαι τὸν Χριστὸν διὰ τῆς πίστεως ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν,
18 Kia kaha ai koutou me te hunga tapu katoa ki te whakaaro i te whanui, i te roa, i te hohonu, i te tiketike,
ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἐρριζωμένοι καὶ τεθεμελιωμένοι, ἵνα ἐξισχύσητε καταλαβέσθαι σὺν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἁγίοις τί τὸ πλάτος καὶ μῆκος καὶ βάθος καὶ ὕψος,
19 A kia mohio ki te aroha o te Karaiti, e kore nei e taea te whakaaro; kia tino ki rawa ai koutou i te Atua.
γνῶναί τε τὴν ὑπερβάλλουσαν τῆς γνώσεως ἀγάπην τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα πληρωθῆτε εἰς πᾶν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ θεοῦ.
20 Na ki a ia, e kaha nei ki te mahi i nga mea nui whakaharahara, nui noa atu i nga mea katoa e inoi ai, e whakaaro ai tatou, he penei ano me te kaha e mahi nei i roto i a tatou,
Τῷ δὲ δυναμένῳ ὑπὲρ πάντα ποιῆσαι ὑπερεκπερισσοῦ ὧν αἰτούμεθα ἢ νοοῦμεν κατὰ τὴν δύναμιν τὴν ἐνεργουμένην ἐν ἡμῖν,
