Waefesu 2
1 Pamakashu mwenga muweriti gambira muhowa toziya ya vidoda vyamtenditi.
even you who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Mushipindi shilii mwenga mulikaliti kugendera njira zya vidoda vya wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yaviwera, mwenga mjimiliti ukolamlima wa washamshera yawawera na makakala wa kulyera. Washamshera yawawatenda vinu wantu waleki kumjimira Mlungu. (aiōn g165)
in which you formerly walked, according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air--of the spirit which now effectually works in the children of disobedience; (aiōn g165)
3 Ntambu yatuwera, twoseri twenga tuweriti gambira womberi na tulikaliti kulawirana na lumatamata lwatwenga lya pasipanu na kutenda hera vitwatira vyaviherepeziyiti nshimba na mahala getu. Twenga tulifaniti na womberi, su tufiriwitwi tutabisiwi na maya ga Mlungu.
amongst whom we, also, were all formerly conversant in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh, and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as others.
4 Kumbiti Mlungu ndo kana lusungu nentu. Katufiriti kwa mafiliru gakuwi makulu kwa twenga,
But God being rich in mercy, through his great love with which he loved us,
5 ata patuweriti tuhowa toziya ya vidoda, yomberi katutenditi tuweri wakomu pamuhera na Kristu. Kwa manemu ga Mlungu, mwenga mlopoziwitwi.
even us, who were dead in trespasses, he has made alive together with Christ; (by favor you are saved; )
6 Kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Yesu Kristu, Mlungu katuzyukusiyiti pamuhera na yomberi, su twakalikali pamuhera na Yesu kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
and has raised us up together, and has set us down together in heavenly places with Christ Jesus;
7 Ndo ntambu yakafiriti kulanguziya kwa shipindi shashiza, ukulu wa manemu gakuwi kwa mafiliru gakatulanguziyiti twenga kupitira Yesu Kristu. (aiōn g165)
that he might show, in the ages to come, the exceeding riches of his favor in his kindness toward us by Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
8 Toziya kwa manemu ga Mlungu, mwenga mlopoziwa kupitira njimiru. Shitwatira ashi shilawa ndiri kwa maweni mwenga, kumbiti shilawa kwa Mlungu.
For by favor you are saved through faith; and this salvation not by yourselves; it is the gift of God--
9 Su muntu yoseri nakalitumbira toziya kagutenderiti ndiri lihengu.
not by works, that no one may boast.
10 Twenga twa viwumbi vya Mlungu na kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu Yesu, yomberi kawumbiti toziya kulikala makaliru ga matendu maheri gakatutandiriti kala tugatendi.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, for which God before prepared us, that we should walk in them.
11 Muholi ntambu yamuweriti pamakashu, mwenga kwa kwiwuka muwera wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi, mwenga yamshemwa “Wantu yawayingiziwitwi ndiri jandu” na Wayawudi walishema weni, “Wantu yawayingiziwa jandu,” Toziya ya shilii shashitendwa munshimba zyawu kwa mawoku ga wantu kulanguziya weni ndo wantu wa Mlungu.
Wherefore, remember that you, formerly Gentiles in the flesh, (those called the uncircumcision, by them called the circumcision in the flesh, made by hands, )
12 Muliholi vilaa shipindi shilii mwenga muweriti mulikolerana ndiri pamuhera na Kristu, mwenga mubagulitwi na wantu wa Israeli na muweriti wahenga kwa mapatanu yagaweriti na lagilu ya Mlungu. Mulikaliti pasipanu, uganu muweriti gambira wantu yawahera litumbiru, walii yawammana ndiri Mlungu.
were in the world at that time, without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the institutions of promise; having no hope, and without God:
13 Pamakashu mwenga muweriti kutali na Mlungu, kumbiti vinu kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu Yesu, mwenga mjegitwi pakwegera kupitira mwazi gwa Kristu.
but now, in Christ Jesus, you were formerly far off, are brought nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 Toziya Kristu mweni katujegeriti ponga kwa kuwatenda Wayawudi na wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi kuwera wantu wamu. Kwa kuyilaviya nshimba yakuwi mweni kuwera tambiku kabomoliti ungondu wawu yawuweriti gambira shibambaza shashiwalekaniziyiti.
For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation;
15 Kagaharabisiyiti nakamu Malagaliru ga Wayawudi pamuhera na lagiru lyakuwi na genderanu yakuwi, su kulawira vipinga viwili, yomberi katenda shipinga shimu sha wantu wasyayi mukulikolerana pamuhera na mweni, kwa njira ayi katenditi ponga.
having abolished, by his flesh, the enmity, (the law of the commandments concerning ordinances, ) that he might make the two into one new man, under himself, making peace:
16 Kupitira kuyilaviya nshimba yakuwi palupingika kuwera tambiku, Kristu kawuhalabisiyiti ungondu wawu na katenditi vipinga viwili viweri gambira nshimba yimu na kuwakolaniziya pamuhera na Mlungu.
and might reconcile both to God, in one body, through the cross; having slain the enmity by it.
17 Su Kristu kiziti kushibwera Shisoweru Shiwagira sha ponga kwa wantu woseri, mwenga wantu yamuwera ndiri Wayawudi, yamuweriti kutali na Mlungu na kwa Wayawudi yawawera pakwegera na Mlungu.
And, having come, he brought good news of peace to you, the far off--to us, the nigh:
18 Su kupitira Kristu, twawoseri twenga Wayawudi na wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi tupata lupenyu kumgendera Tati kwa Rohu yumu.
that, through him, we both have introduction to the Father, by one Spirit.
19 Su mwenga mwawahenga ndiri kayi, ama wantu wa kunja ndiri, mwenga vinu muwera wenikaya pamuhera na wantu wa Mlungu, muwera wantu wa kaya ya Mlungu.
Now, then, you are no longer strangers and sojourners; but fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God:
20 Mwenga viraa mnyawa mulyanjiru lyalitulitwi na wantumintumi pamuhera na wambuyi wa Mlungu na Kristu Yesu mweni ndo litalawu likulu lyaliwera na mana nentu.
having been built upon the foundation of the Apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the foundation corner stone;
21 Yomberi ndo mweni yakayikolera numba yoseri na kuyikuliziya iweri Numba nkulu nanagala ya Mlungu toziya ya Mtuwa.
by which the whole building, being fitly compacted together, rises into a holy temple of the Lord;
22 Kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu, mwenga viraa mnyawa pamuhera na wamonga woseri, muweri pahala Mlungu kalikala kupitira Rohu gwakuwi.
in which you, also, are builded together, for a habitation of God by the Spirit.
