Efesofo 3
1 Me Paulo, mo amanamanmufo nti Kristo Yesu de me yɛɛ odeduani.
For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles,
2 Nokware mu, moate Onyankopɔn adom a ɔnam me so de ma mo no ho asɛm,
If that ordering of the grace of God has come to your knowledge, which was given to me for you,
3 a ɛno ne ahintasɛm a wɔnam adiyi so de ama sɛnea makyerɛw no tiaa dedaw no.
How by revelation the secret was made clear to me, as I said before in a short letter,
4 Na sɛ mokenkan eyi a na mobɛte nhumu a mewɔ wɔ Kristo ahintasɛm ho no ase,
By the reading of which you will be clear about my knowledge of the secret of Christ;
5 nea wɔanyi ankyerɛ awo ntoatoaso bi mu nnipa sɛnea nnɛ yi Honhom no ada no adi akyerɛ Onyankopɔn asomafo ne adiyifo akronkron no.
Which in other generations was not given to the sons of men, but the revelation of it has now been made to his holy Apostles and prophets in the Spirit;
6 Saa ahintasɛm yi kyerɛ sɛ amanamanmufo ne Israelfo bɔ mu yɛ adedifo. Wɔbɔ mu yɛ nipadua baako, na wɔwɔ kyɛfa wɔ Kristo Yesu mu bɔhyɛ no mu.
Which is that the Gentiles have a part in the heritage, and in the same body, and in the same hope in Christ through the good news,
7 Onyankopɔn dom akyɛde a ɔnam ne tumi so yɛ adwuma wɔ yɛn mu nti, meyɛɛ asɛmpa no ho somfo.
Of which I was made a preacher, through that grace of God which was given to me in the measure of the working of his power.
8 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ me ne aketewa pa ara wɔ Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo nyinaa mu, nanso Onyankopɔn yɛɛ me adom sɛ menkɔka Asɛmpa a ɛfa Kristo ahonya a emu nni hwehwɛbea no nkyerɛ amanamanmufo,
To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, was this grace given, so that I might make clear to the Gentiles the good news of the unending wealth of Christ:
9 na memma nnipa nyinaa nhu saa ahintasɛm yi dwumadi a wɔde asie wɔ Onyankopɔn a ɔbɔɔ ade nyinaa mu wɔ mfe bebree a atwa mu no mu no. (aiōn g165)
And make all men see what is the ordering of the secret which from the first has been kept in God who made all things; (aiōn g165)
10 Nʼatirimpɔw ne sɛ afei ɔnam asɔre no so bɛda ne nyansa a emu dɔ no adi akyerɛ wim mpanyinni ne atumfo,
So that now to the rulers and the authorities in the heavens might be made clear through the church the wide-shining wisdom of God,
Which is seen in his eternal purpose in Christ Jesus our Lord: (aiōn g165)
12 Afei Kristo ma yɛn akokoduru ne ahotoso a ɛma yenya gyidi ba Onyankopɔn anim.
By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.
13 Mesrɛ mo, mommma mo aba mu mmu wɔ amane a mihu ma mo no ho. Ɛyɛ mo anuonyamhyɛ.
For this reason it is my prayer that you may not become feeble because of my troubles for you, which are your glory.
14 Eyi nti mibu nkotodwe wɔ Agya no anim,
For this cause I go down on my knees before the Father,
15 ɔno na ne din da nʼabusua a ɛwɔ ɔsoro ne asase nyinaa so no so.
From whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
16 Mebɔ mpae sɛ omfi nʼanuonyam ahonya no mu mfa ne Honhom a ɛte mo mu no so nhyɛ mo den,
That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;
17 sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Kristo bɛfa mo gyidi so abɛtena mo koma mu. Sɛ moagye ntin na moatim wɔ ɔdɔ mu no, mebɔ mpae sɛ
So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,
18 mo ne ahotefo nyinaa benya tumi, na moate Kristo dɔ no trɛw, ne tenten, ne korɔn ne emu dɔ no ase,
May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,
19 na moahu saa ɔdɔ a ɛtra adwene nyinaa so no, na Onyankopɔn ahyɛ mo ma.
And to have knowledge of the love of Christ which is outside all knowledge, so that you may be made complete as God himself is complete.
20 Anuonyam nka Onyankopɔn a ne tumi yɛ adwuma wɔ yɛn mu. Ɔnam saa tumi yi so yɛ nea yebisa anaa nea yesusuw ma ɛboro so.
Now to him who is able to do in full measure more than all our desires or thoughts, through the power which is working in us,
