इफि. 2
To you Gentiles also, who were dead through your offences and sins,
2 २ ज्यामध्ये तुम्ही पूर्वी चालत होता, हे तुमचे कृत्य जगाच्या चालीरीतीप्रमाणे अंतरीक्षाचा राज्याधिपती जो सैतान, म्हणजे आज्ञा मोडणाऱ्या लोकात आता कार्य करणाऱ्या दुष्ट आत्म्याचा अधिपती, ह्याच्या वहीवाटीप्रमाणे असे होते. (aiōn g165)
which were once habitual to you while you walked in the ways of this world and obeyed the Prince of the powers of the air, the spirits that are now at work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience--to you God has given Life. (aiōn g165)
3 ३ आम्ही सर्व यापूर्वी या अविश्वासणाऱ्यांमध्ये आपल्या शारीरिक वासनेने वागत होतो, शरीर आणि मनाच्या इच्छेप्रमाणे करत होतो व आम्ही स्वभावाने इतरांप्रमाणे राग येणारे लोक होतो.
Among them all of us also formerly passed our lives, governed by the inclinations of our lower natures, indulging the cravings of those natures and of our own thoughts, and were in our original state deserving of anger like all others.
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the intense love which He bestowed on us,
5 ५ आम्ही आमच्या अपराधामुळे मरण पावलेले असता त्याने आम्हास ख्रिस्ताबरोबर नवीन जीवन दिले. तुमचे तारण कृपेने झाले आहे.
caused us, dead though we were through our offences, to live with Christ--it is by grace that you have been saved--
raised us with Him from the dead, and enthroned us with Him in the heavenly realms as being in Christ Jesus,
7 ७ यासाठी की, येशू ख्रिस्तामध्ये त्याची आम्हांवरील प्रीतीच्याद्वारे येणाऱ्या युगात त्याची महान कृपा दाखविता यावी. (aiōn g165)
in order that, by His goodness to us in Christ Jesus, He might display in the Ages to come the transcendent riches of His grace. (aiōn g165)
8 ८ कारण देवाच्या कृपेने विश्वासाच्याद्वारे तुम्हास शिक्षेपासून वाचवले आहे आणि ते आमच्याकडून झाले नाही, तर हे दान देवापासून आहे,
For it is by grace that you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves. It is God's gift, and is not on the ground of merit--
so that it may be impossible for any one to boast.
10 १० कारण आम्ही देवाच्या हाताची कृती आहोत जी ख्रिस्तामध्ये आहे जेणेकरूण आम्ही जीवनात चांगली कामे करावी जे देवाने आरंभीच योजून ठेवले होते.
For we are God's own handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works which He has pre-destined us to practise.
11 ११ म्हणून आठवण करा, एकेकाळी तुम्ही शरीराने परराष्ट्रीय होता आणि ज्यांची शरीराची सुंता मनुष्याच्या हाताने झालेली होती ते लोक स्वतःला सुंती असे म्हणत, ते त्यांना बेसुंती संबोधत.
Therefore, do not forget that formerly you were Gentiles as to your bodily condition. You were called the Uncircumcision by those who style themselves the Circumcised--their circumcision being one which the knife has effected.
12 १२ त्यावेळी तुम्ही ख्रिस्तापासून वेगळे होता, इस्राएलाच्या बाहेरचे होता, वचनाच्या कराराशी तुम्ही अपरिचित असे होता, तुम्ही तुमच्या भविष्याविषयी आशाविरहित आणि देवहीन असे जगात होता.
At that time you were living apart from Christ, estranged from the Commonwealth of Israel, with no share by birth in the Covenants which are based on the Promises, and you had no hope and no God, in all the world.
13 १३ पण आता, ख्रिस्त येशूमध्ये जे तुम्ही एकेकाळी देवापासून दूर होता, पण आता, येशू ख्रिस्तामध्ये ते तुम्ही ख्रिस्ताच्या रक्ताने त्याच्याजवळ आले आहात.
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were so far away have been brought near through the death of Christ.
14 १४ कारण तोच आमची शांती आहे, त्याने यहूदी आणि विदेशी या दोघांना एक लोक असे केले. त्याच्या देहाने त्याने आम्हास एकमेकांपासून दुभागणारी आडभिंत पाडून टाकली.
For He is our peace--He who has made Jews and Gentiles one, and in His own human nature has broken down the hostile dividing wall,
15 १५ त्याने आज्ञाविधीचे कायदे आणि नियमशास्त्र आपल्या देहाने रद्द केले. यासाठी की स्वतःमध्ये दोघांचा एक नवा मनुष्य निर्माण करून शांती आणावी.
by setting aside the Law with its commandments, expressed, as they were, in definite decrees. His design was to unite the two sections of humanity in Himself so as to form one new man,
thus effecting peace, and to reconcile Jews and Gentiles in one body to God, by means of His cross--slaying by it their mutual enmity.
So He came and proclaimed good news of peace to you who were so far away, and peace to those who were near;
because it is through Him that Jews and Gentiles alike have access through one Spirit to the Father.
19 १९ यामुळे तुम्ही आता परके आणि विदेशी नाही. तर त्याऐवजी तुम्ही पवित्रजनांच्या बरोबरचे सहनागरीक आणि देवाचे कुटुंबीय आहात
You are therefore no longer mere foreigners or persons excluded from civil rights. On the contrary you share citizenship with God's people and are members of His family.
20 २० तुम्ही प्रेषित आणि संदेष्टे यांच्या शिक्षणाच्या पायावर बांधलेली इमारत आहात आणि ख्रिस्त येशू स्वतः तिचा कोनशिला आहे.
You are a building which has been reared on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, the cornerstone being Christ Jesus Himself,
in union with whom the whole fabric, fitted and closely joined together, is growing so as to form a holy sanctuary in the Lord;
22 २२ त्याच्यामध्ये तुम्हीसुद्धा इतरांबरोबर देवाच्या आत्म्याद्वारे देवाचे राहण्याचे ठिकाण तयार करण्यासाठी एकत्र बांधले जात आहात.
in whom you also are being built up together to become a fixed abode for God through the Spirit.
