ܐܦܣܝ̈ܐ 2
| ܘܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܟܘܢ ܘܒܤܟܠܘܬܟܘܢ | 1 |
And you were once dead in your sins and offenses,
| ܒܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܗܠܟܬܘܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܗܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܥܠܡܝܘܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܪܝܫ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܐܐܪ ܘܕܪܘܚܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܡܬܚܦܛܐ ܒܒܢܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܛܦܝܤܢܘܬܐ (aiōn g165) | 2 |
in which you walked in times past, according to the age of this world, according to the prince of the power of this sky, the spirit who now works in the sons of distrust. (aiōn g165)
| ܒܗܢܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܐܬܗܦܟܢ ܒܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܒܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܒܤܪܢ ܘܥܒܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܒܤܪܢ ܘܕܬܪܥܝܬܢ ܘܒܢܝܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܪܘܓܙܐ ܡܠܝܐܝܬ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ | 3 |
And we too were all conversant in these things, in times past, by the desires of our flesh, acting according to the will of the flesh and according to our own thoughts. And so we were, by nature, sons of wrath, even like the others.
| ܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܬܝܪ ܒܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܚܘܒܗ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܐܚܒܢ | 4 |
Yet still, God, who is rich in mercy, for the sake of his exceedingly great charity with which he loved us,
| ܟܕ ܡܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܢ ܐܚܝܢ ܥܡ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܒܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܦܪܩܢ | 5 |
even when we were dead in our sins, has enlivened us together in Christ, by whose grace you have been saved.
| ܘܐܩܝܡܢ ܥܡܗ ܘܐܘܬܒܢ ܥܡܗ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 6 |
And he has raised us up together, and he has caused us to sit down together in the heavens, in Christ Jesus,
| ܕܢܚܘܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܕܐܬܝܢ ܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܘܒܤܝܡܘܬܗ ܕܗܘܬ ܥܠܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ (aiōn g165) | 7 |
so that he may display, in the ages soon to arrive, the abundant wealth of his grace, by his goodness toward us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
| ܒܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܬܦܪܩܢ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 8 |
For by grace, you have been saved through faith. And this is not of yourselves, for it is a gift of God.
| ܠܐ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܢܫܬܒܗܪ | 9 |
And this is not of works, so that no one may glory.
| ܒܪܝܬܐ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܐܬܒܪܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܛܝܒ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܗܘܢ ܢܗܠܟ | 10 |
For we are his handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for the good works which God has prepared and in which we should walk.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܗܕܝܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܕܒܤܪ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܘܡܬܩܪܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܘܪܠܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܘܐܝܬܝܗ ܥܒܕ ܐܝܕܝܐ ܒܒܤܪܐ | 11 |
Because of this, be mindful that, in times past, you were Gentiles in the flesh, and that you were called uncircumcised by those who are called circumcised in the flesh, something done by man,
| ܘܐܝܬܝܟܘܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܗܘ ܙܒܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܢܘܟܪܝܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܕܘܒܪܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܘܐܟܤܢܝܐ ܗܘ ܠܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܤܒܪ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܘܕܠܐ ܐܠܗ ܒܥܠܡܐ | 12 |
and that you were, in that time, without Christ, being foreign to the way of life of Israel, being visitors to the testament, having no hope of the promise, and being without God in this world.
| ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܪܚܝܩܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܩܪܝܒܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܕܡܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ | 13 |
But now, in Christ Jesus, you, who were in times past far away, have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
| ܗܘܝܘ ܓܝܪ ܫܝܢܢ ܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܬܪܬܝܗܝܢ ܚܕܐ ܘܫܪܐ ܤܝܓܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ | 14 |
For he is our peace. He made the two into one, by dissolving the intermediate wall of separation, of opposition, by his flesh,
| ܘܒܥܠܕܒܒܘܬܐ ܒܒܤܪܗ ܘܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܦܘܩܕܐ ܒܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܒܛܠ ܕܠܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܢܒܪܐ ܒܩܢܘܡܗ ܠܚܕ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܘܥܒܕ ܫܝܢܐ | 15 |
emptying the law of commandments by decree, so that he might join these two, in himself, into one new man, making peace
| ܘܪܥܝ ܠܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܦܓܪ ܥܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܒܙܩܝܦܗ ܩܛܠ ܒܥܠܕܒܒܘܬܐ | 16 |
and reconciling both to God, in one body, through the cross, destroying this opposition in himself.
| ܘܐܬܐ ܤܒܪ ܫܠܡܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܪܚܝܩܐ ܘܠܩܪܝܒܐ | 17 |
And upon arriving, he evangelized peace to you who were far away, and peace to those who were near.
| ܡܛܠ ܕܒܗ ܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܩܘܪܒܐ ܠܬܪܝܢ ܒܚܕܐ ܪܘܚ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ | 18 |
For by him, we both have access, in the one Spirit, to the Father.
| ܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܐܟܤܢܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܘܬܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܢܝ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܒܢܝ ܒܝܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 19 |
Now, therefore, you are no longer visitors and new arrivals. Instead, you are citizens among the saints in the household of God,
| ܘܐܬܒܢܝܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܕܢܒܝܐ ܘܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܪܝܫ ܩܪܢܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 20 |
having been built upon the foundation of the Apostles and of the Prophets, with Jesus Christ himself as the preeminent cornerstone.
| ܘܒܗ ܡܬܪܟܒ ܟܠܗ ܒܢܝܢܐ ܘܪܒܐ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܡܪܝܐ | 21 |
In him, all that has been built is framed together, rising up into a holy temple in the Lord.
| ܟܕ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܡܬܒܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܥܡܪܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܪܘܚ | 22 |
In him, you also have been built together into a habitation of God in the Spirit.
