اِپھِشِنَح 5

1 اَتو یُویَں پْرِیَبالَکا اِویشْوَرَسْیانُکارِنو بھَوَتَ،

Therefore be imitators of God, as dearly loved children.

2 کھْرِیشْٹَ اِوَ پْریماچارَں کُرُتَ چَ، یَتَح سوسْماسُ پْریمَ کرِتَوانْ اَسْماکَں وِنِمَیینَ چاتْمَنِویدَنَں کرِتْوا گْراہْیَسُگَنْدھارْتھَکَمْ اُپَہارَں بَلِنْچیشْوَراچَ دَتَّوانْ۔

And walk in love, as also Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

But there must not be even a suggestion among you of sexual immorality or any kind of impurity or of greed, for these are improper for God's holy people.

4 اَپَرَں کُتْسِتالاپَح پْرَلاپَح شْلیشوکْتِشْچَ نَ بھَوَتُ یَتَ ایتانْیَنُچِتانِ کِنْتْوِیشْوَرَسْیَ دھَنْیَوادو بھَوَتُ۔

Let there be no filthiness, no foolish talk, and no crude jokes—all of which are improper. Instead there should be thanksgiving.

5 ویشْیاگامْیَشَوچاچارِی دیوَپُوجَکَ اِوَ گَنْیو لوبھِی چَیتیشاں کوشِ کھْرِیشْٹَسْیَ راجْیےرْتھَتَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ راجْیے کَمَپْیَدھِکارَں نَ پْراپْسْیَتِیتِ یُشْمابھِح سَمْیَکْ جْنایَتاں۔

For you can be sure of this, that no sexually immoral, impure, or greedy person—that is, an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

6 اَنَرْتھَکَواکْیینَ کوپِ یُشْمانْ نَ وَنْچَیَتُ یَتَسْتادرِگاچارَہیتورَناجْناگْراہِشُ لوکیشْوِیشْوَرَسْیَ کوپو وَرْتَّتے۔

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the anger of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.

7 تَسْمادْ یُویَں تَیح سَہَبھاگِنو نَ بھَوَتَ۔

Therefore, do not join in with them.

8 پُورْوَّں یُویَمْ اَنْدھَکارَسْوَرُوپا آدھْوَں کِنْتْوِدانِیں پْرَبھُنا دِیپْتِسْوَرُوپا بھَوَتھَ تَسْمادْ دِیپْتیح سَنْتانا اِوَ سَماچَرَتَ۔

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

9 دِیپْتے رْیَتْ پھَلَں تَتْ سَرْوَّوِدھَہِتَیشِتایاں دھَرْمّے سَتْیالاپے چَ پْرَکاشَتے۔

(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),

10 پْرَبھَوے یَدْ روچَتے تَتْ پَرِیکْشَدھْوَں۔

and find out what is pleasing to the Lord.

11 یُویَں تِمِرَسْیَ وِپھَلَکَرْمَّنامْ اَںشِنو نَ بھُوتْوا تیشاں دوشِتْوَں پْرَکاشَیَتَ۔

Do not associate with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.

12 یَتَسْتے لوکا رَہَمِ یَدْ یَدْ آچَرَنْتِ تَدُچّارَنَمْ اَپِ لَجّاجَنَکَں۔

For it is shameful even to mention the things they do in secret.

13 یَتو دِیپْتْیا یَدْ یَتْ پْرَکاشْیَتے تَتْ تَیا چَکاسْیَتے یَچَّ چَکاسْتِ تَدْ دِیپْتِسْوَرُوپَں بھَوَتِ۔

But when anything is illuminated by the light, it becomes visible.

14 ایتَتْکارَنادْ اُکْتَمْ آسْتے، "ہے نِدْرِتَ پْرَبُدھْیَسْوَ مرِتیبھْیَشْچوتّھِتِں کُرُ۔ تَتْکرِتے سُورْیَّوَتْ کھْرِیشْٹَح سْوَیَں تْواں دْیوتَیِشْیَتِ۔ "

For anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, you sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

15 اَتَح ساوَدھانا بھَوَتَ، اَجْنانا اِوَ ماچَرَتَ کِنْتُ جْنانِنَ اِوَ سَتَرْکَمْ آچَرَتَ۔

Look carefully how you live—not as unwise but as wise.

16 سَمَیَں بَہُمُولْیَں گَنَیَدھْوَں یَتَح کالا اَبھَدْراح۔

Redeem the time because the days are evil.

17 تَسْمادْ یُویَمْ اَجْنانا نَ بھَوَتَ کِنْتُ پْرَبھورَبھِمَتَں کِں تَدَوَگَتا بھَوَتَ۔

Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

18 سَرْوَّناشَجَنَکینَ سُراپانینَ مَتّا ما بھَوَتَ کِنْتْواتْمَنا پُورْیَّدھْوَں۔

And do not get drunk with wine, for that leads to reckless behavior. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit,

19 اَپَرَں گِیتَے رْگانَیح پارَمارْتھِکَکِیرْتَّنَیشْچَ پَرَسْپَرَمْ آلَپَنْتو مَنَسا سارْدّھَں پْرَبھُمْ اُدِّشْیَ گایَتَ وادَیَتَ چَ۔

speaking to each other in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

20 سَرْوَّدا سَرْوَّوِشَیےسْمَتْپْرَبھو یِیشوح کھْرِیشْٹَسْیَ نامْنا تاتَمْ اِیشْوَرَں دھَنْیَں وَدَتَ۔

always giving thanks for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father,

21 یُویَمْ اِیشْوَرادْ بھِیتاح سَنْتَ اَنْیےپَریشاں وَشِیبھُوتا بھَوَتَ۔

submitting yourselves to one another in reverence for Christ.

22 ہے یوشِتَح، یُویَں یَتھا پْرَبھوسْتَتھا سْوَسْوَسْوامِنو وَشَنْگَتا بھَوَتَ۔

Wives, submit to your husbands, as to the Lord.

23 یَتَح کھْرِیشْٹو یَدْوَتْ سَمِتے رْمُورْدّھا شَرِیرَسْیَ تْراتا چَ بھَوَتِ تَدْوَتْ سْوامِی یوشِتو مُورْدّھا۔

For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ also is the head of the church, and Christ himself is its savior.

24 اَتَح سَمِتِ رْیَدْوَتْ کھْرِیشْٹَسْیَ وَشِیبھُوتا تَدْوَدْ یوشِدْبھِرَپِ سْوَسْوَسْوامِنو وَشَتا سْوِیکَرْتَّوْیا۔

But as the church submits to Christ, so also wives must submit to their husbands in everything.

25 اَپَرَنْچَ ہے پُرُشاح، یُویَں کھْرِیشْٹَ اِوَ سْوَسْوَیوشِتْسُ پْرِییَدھْوَں۔

Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

26 سَ کھْرِیشْٹوپِ سَمِتَو پْرِیتَوانْ تَسْیاح کرِتے چَ سْوَپْرانانْ تْیَکْتَوانْ یَتَح سَ واکْیے جَلَمَجَّنینَ تاں پَرِشْکرِتْیَ پاوَیِتُمْ

Christ gave himself for the church so that he might make her holy, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

27 اَپَرَں تِلَکَوَلْیادِوِہِیناں پَوِتْراں نِشْکَلَنْکانْچَ تاں سَمِتِں تیجَسْوِنِیں کرِتْوا سْوَہَسْتے سَمَرْپَیِتُنْچابھِلَشِتَوانْ۔

so that he might present her to himself as glorious, without stain or wrinkle or any such thing, but holy and without fault.

28 تَسْماتْ سْوَتَنُوَتْ سْوَیوشِتِ پْریمَکَرَنَں پُرُشَسْیوچِتَں، یینَ سْوَیوشِتِ پْریمَ کْرِیَتے تیناتْمَپْریمَ کْرِیَتے۔

In the same way husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.

29 کوپِ کَداپِ نَ سْوَکِییاں تَنُمْ رِتِییِتَوانْ کِنْتُ سَرْوّے تاں وِبھْرَتِ پُشْنَنْتِ چَ۔ کھْرِیشْٹوپِ سَمِتِں پْرَتِ تَدیوَ کَروتِ،

For no one ever hated his own body, but nourishes and treats it with care, just as Christ nourishes and treats the church with care,

30 یَتو وَیَں تَسْیَ شَرِیرَسْیانْگانِ ماںساسْتھِینِ چَ بھَوامَح۔

because we are members of his body.

31 ایتَدَرْتھَں مانَوَح سْوَماتاپِتَرو پَرِتْیَجْیَ سْوَبھارْیّایامْ آسَںکْشْیَتِ تَو دْوَو جَناویکانْگَو بھَوِشْیَتَح۔

“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

32 ایتَنِّگُوڈھَواکْیَں گُرُتَرَں مَیا چَ کھْرِیشْٹَسَمِتِی اَدھِ تَدْ اُچْیَتے۔

This hidden truth is great—but I am speaking about Christ and the church.

33 اَتَایوَ یُشْماکَمْ ایکَیکو جَنَ آتْمَوَتْ سْوَیوشِتِ پْرِییَتاں بھارْیّاپِ سْوامِنَں سَمادَرْتُّں یَتَتاں۔

Nevertheless, each of you also must love his own wife as himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
