Ephesians 6
1 Beno bana, lutumukina bambuta beno mu Pfumu bila buawu bufueni.
Children, obey your parents in our Lord, for this is right; and this is the first commandment which promiseth.
2 Kinzika Dise diaku ayi ngudi aku bila wawu muina wutheti widi ayi tsila. Tala tsila beni yawu yayi:
Honour thy father and thy mother,
3 muingi wumona mamboti ayi wuzinga buwombo va ntoto.
that it may be well with thee, and thy life be prolonged upon the earth.
4 Diawu, beno madisa lubika fuemisanga bana beno vayi luba yundudila mu kuba vananga zindongi ayi zindubu mu Pfumu.
Parents, make not your children angry, but make them to grow in the discipline and in the doctrine of our Lord.
5 Beno bavika, lutumukina bapfumu zieno zi ntoto mu lukinzu ayi mu lukhuku mu kiedika kioso ki ntima banga kuidi Klisto.
Servants, be subject to your masters who are according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, and with simplicity of heart, as unto the Meshiha:
6 Lusala kisalu kieno bika sia ti mu thangu zilembo ku lusungi bangati beno luntomba monisa batu khini, vayi banga bavika ba Klisto miomi mieta vanga luzolo lu Nzambi mu mintima mimboti.
not in the sight of the eyes, as if you were pleasing men (only), but as the servants of Meshiha who do the will of Aloha.
7 Bika lusala kisalu kieno mu luzolo lumboti banga beno lunsadila Pfumuvayi bika batu.
And serve them from all your soul, in love, as unto our Lord, and not as unto men;
8 Bila luzebi ti Pfumu wela futa kadika mutu mu dioso-dioso diambudi bumboti diela vanga mutu, kaba mvika voti mutu wu kiphuanza.
knowing that whatever good a man doeth he is rewarded by our Lord, whether he be a servant or a son of freedom.
9 Beno bapfumu bobuawu luvangila bavika baeno. Lubika kuba yamisa bila ayi beno ayi bawu Pfumu yimosi kaka yidi yeno, yoyo yidi ku diyilu. Bila niandi katalanga bizizi bi batu ko.
So you, masters, do likewise to your servants; forgiving them a fault; for you know also that your Master is in heaven, and there is no respect of persons with him.
10 Mu manisa, bika lukikindisanga mu Pfumu ayi mu lulendo lu zingolo ziandi.
HENCEFORTH, my brethren, be strong in our Lord, and in the power of his strength.
11 Bila kioki luvuata binduanina bioso bi Nzambi muingi lubakabu telimina va ntuala luvunu lu satana.
And clothe you in all the armour of Aloha, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the accuser.
12 Bila mvita yeto yisi yi nsuni ko ayi yi menga ko, vayi tueti nuanisanga bikulutu, bipfumu, batu ba lulendo badi mu tombi ayi tunuanisanga ziphevi zimbimbi zidi mu tsi yi kipheve. (aiōn g165)
For your wrestling is not with flesh and blood (only), but with princes, and with powers, and with the possessors of this dark world, and with the evil spirits who are under heaven. (aiōn g165)
13 Diawu lubonga binduanina bioso bi Nzambi, mu diambu lubaka bu kukitabila mu lumbu kimbimbi ayi bu lumeni nunga lutelama nanguinate kuna tsuka.
Wherefore clothe you with all the armour of Aloha, that you may be able to meet the evil one, and being prepared in every thing you may stand.
14 Diawu, lutelama, lukanga kiedika mu luketo lueno banga sentila ayi bika luvuata busonga bu Nzambi banga kikhutu kisengo.
Stand, therefore, with your loins strengthened with the truth, and wear the breastplate of righteousness,
15 Bika bufula bu longa Nsamu wumboti wu ndembama buba zisapatu mumalu meno.
and let your feet be shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Bika va yilu mambu moso, lubonga minu banga nkaku wowo lulendazimina madionga moso ma mbazu mamfidisanga mutu wu mbimbi.
and with these take to you the shield of faith, that therewith you may be empowered with strength to extinguish all the burning shafts of that evil one;
17 Bika phulusu luba budu kisengo mu mintu mieno ayi mambu ma Nzambi maba mbedi yi Pheve.
and put on the helmet of salvation, and take the sword of the Spirit which is the word of Aloha.
18 Mu lusadusu lu Pheve, lusambila zitsambulu zioso zi phila mu philaayi zindombolo mu zithangu zioso. Luvanga buawu mu thatumunu yingoloayi lubika vonga. Lusambidila banlongo boso.
And with all prayers, and with all supplications, pray at all times in the Spirit, and in that prayer be watchful in all seasons,
19 Bika lutsambidila mu diambu di mu thangu ndinzibula munu, ndibaka mambu mafueni, momo ndilenda tuba mu diambu di samuna mu kibakala matsueki ma Nsamu Wumbote.
praying constantly and invoking on behalf of all the saints; and for me also, that the word may be given me with openness of my mouth, that I may boldly proclaim the mystery of the gospel,
20 Mu diambu di Nsamu wumboti beni ndididi mvuala, mvuala wowo widiwukangama mu zisieni. Lusambila mu diambu ndisamuna wawu mu kibakalabanga mu phila mfueti kuwuyolukila.
for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may speak with freedom, as it behoveth me to speak it.
21 Mu diambu di luzaba phila ndididi ayi mambu ndilembo vangi, buna khombꞌeto wu luzolo Titsike, widi kisadi kikuikama mu kisalu ki Pfumu, wela ku lukamba mambu moso madi mu diambu diama.
But that you may know also what relateth to me, and what I am doing, behold, Tykikos, a brother beloved, and a faithful minister of our Lord, will make known to you;
22 Mu bila kioki ndilufidisidi niandi muingi kalukamba zitsangu zieto ayi kabomba mintima mieno.
whom I have sent to you on account of this, that he may make you acquainted with what relateth to me, and may comfort your hearts.
23 Bika Nzambi Tata ayi Pfumu Yesu Klisto bavana bakhomba zioso ndembama, luzolo ayi minu.
Peace be with the brethren, and love with faith from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.
24 Bika nlemvo wuba kuidi babo bobo banzolanga Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto mu luzolo lu kiedika.
Grace be with all them who love our Lord Jeshu Meshiha incorruptibly. Amen.
