Waefesu 1
1 Neni Paulu, kwa mafiliru ga Mlungu, wera ntumintumi gwa Yesu Kristu. Nuwalembiriti mwenga wantu wa Mlungu yamulikala Efesu yamuwera waminika kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Yesu Kristu.
Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, to the saints that are in Ephesus, even the believers in Christ Jesus:
2 Manemu na ponga ga Tati gwetu Mlungu na Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu gaweri pamuhera na mwenga.
Favor to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Kakwiswi Mlungu Tati gwa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu! Toziya mukulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu yomberi katutekeleriti twenga kwa kutupanana matekeleru goseri ga shirohu ga kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ;
4 Su pamberi pa kuumbwa pasipanu, Mlungu katusyaguliti kala twenga tuweri wakuwi kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu, su tuweri wananagala pota na kuwera shidoda kulongolu kwakuwi. Toziya ya mafiliru gakuwi,
according as he has elected us in him, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy, and unblamable in his sight; in love,
5 Mlungu kalongiti kala kuwera kupitira Yesu Kristu katutenditi twenga tuweri wana wakuwi, hangu ndo ntambu yakafiriti na shashimuherepeziyiti.
having formerly marked us out for adoption through Jesus Christ, to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
6 Su twenga tumuzyumi Mlungu manemu gakuwi gana ukwisa, toziya yakatupanana hera Mwana gwakuwi yakamfira nentu!
to the praise of the glory of his favor, with which he has highly favored us in the Beloved;
7 Kwa mwazi gwakuwi Kristu, twenga twankulopoziwa na kulekiziwa vidoda vyatutenda. Ndo ntambu yauwera ukulu wa manemu ga Mlungu
in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his favor,
8 gakatupananiti twenga kuvuwa! Muluhala lwakuwi na malifa gakuwi goseri
which has abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
9 Mlungu katenditi shilii shakapangiti kutenda na katutenditi tugamani galii gagalififiti, gakafiriti kugatenda kupitira Kristu.
having made known to us the secret of his will according to his benevolent purpose, which he had purposed in himself,
10 Aga hagatendeki mumashaka galii gakatuliti Mlungu pagasoka, guweriti gwakujojinira viwumbi vyoseri pamuhera, kila shintu kumpindi kwa Mlungu na pasipanu vilongoziwi na Kristu.
for the administration of the fullness of the appointed times, to gather together all under Christ--all in the heavens, and all on the earth--under him:
11 Vintu vyoseri vitendeka ntambu yakafiriti Mlungu, yomberi katusyagula twenga tuweri wantu wakuwi kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu ntambu yakafiriti, kaamuwiti hangu kwanjira lupaga.
under whom even we have inherited, having been formerly marked out according to the purpose of him who effectually works all things according to the counsel of his will,
12 Su twenga yatulongoleriti kumtumbira Kristu, tufiruwa tuwuzyumi ukwisa wa Mlungu!
that we should be to the praise of his glory, who before trusted in Christ.
13 Na mwenga viraa muwera wantu wa Mlungu, pampikaniriti unakaka wa ujumbi wa Shisoweru Shiwagira shashijegiti ulopoziya. Mwenga mumjimiriti Kristu na Mlungu kawatuliti shilangaliru kuwera wantu wakuwi kwa kuwapanana Rohu Mnanagala yakamlagiliti.
In whom you, also, trusted, having heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom, also, having believed, you were sealed with the spirit of the promise--the Holy Spirit--
14 Rohu Mnanagala ndo yakatutenda tuweri na unakaka kuwanka goseri Mlungu gakawalagiliti wantu wakuwi na shitwatira ashi shitulanguziya nakaka kuwera Mlungu hakawalekiziyi woseri yawawera wakuwi. Tuuzyumi ukwisa wakuwi!
who is an earnest of our inheritance, for the redemption of the purchase, to the praise of his glory.
15 Toziya ayi kwanjira pampikaniriti njimiru yenu kwa Mtuwa Yesu na mafiliru genu kwa wantu wa Mlungu,
For this reason, I, also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and of your love to all the saints,
16 ndekiti ndiri kumgambira Mlungu mayagashii toziya ya mwenga. Panumluwa Mlungu nuwalyaluwa ndiri,
do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 su numuluwa Tati yakawera na ukwisa, Mlungu gwa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu, kawapanani Rohu gwakuwi yakawatenda mwenga muweri na luhala na kuwagubutulireni Mlungu, su mwenga hamummani nentu.
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, would give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
18 Numuluwa Mlungu kawatangi mwenga mpati kulimana litumbiru lilii lyakawashemerani na ukwisa mkulu wa lifupu lya uhala lyakawatuliliti wantu wakuwi,
that the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance among the saints;
19 mpati kuumana uwezu wakuwi ntambu yawuwera mkulu nentu toziya ya twenga yatujimira. Uwezu awu wawutenda lihengu mngati mwa twenga, ulifana na makakala galii makulu nentu
and what the exceeding greatness of his power, in relation to us who believe according to the working of his mighty power,
20 gakamzyukisiyiti Kristu na kamkalasiya pahala pa ukolamlima kumpindi.
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 Aku Kristu kawera mkulu gwa wakulu, kankukolamlima mukila kolamlima na wanauwezu na makakala na watuwa, kankukolamlima kila rohu yayitumbirwa mupasipanu na pasipanu payiza. (aiōn g165)
far above all government, and power, and might, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come; (aiōn g165)
22 Mlungu kamupananiti Yesu uwezu wa vintu vyoseri na kumtula kuwera mtuwi gwa vintu vyoseri mushipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu.
and subjected all things under his feet, and appointed him head over all things to the congregation,
23 Shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Mlungu ndo nshimba ya Kristu. Shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Mlungu shimemiziwa na Kristu na Kristu kamemiziya kila shintu pahala poseri.
which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all;
