Efesoarrei 6
1 Haourrác, obeditzáçue Iaunean çuen aita eta ama: ecen haur gauça iustoa da.
Children, obey your parents, as children of the Lord; for that is but right.
2 Ohoraitzac eure aita eta eure ama (cein baita lehen manamendua promessequin)
‘Honour thy father and mother’ — this is the first Commandment with a promise —
3 Vngui hel daquiançát eta vicitze lucetaco aicençát lurraren gainean.
‘So that thou mayest prosper and have a long life on earth.’
4 Eta çuec aitéc eztitzaçuela prouoca despitetara çuen haourrac, baina haz itzaçue instructionetan eta Iaunazco remonstrationetan.
And fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up with Christian discipline and instruction.
5 Cerbitzariác, obeditzaçue haraguiaren arauez çuen nabussi diradenac, beldurrequin eta ikararequin, çuen bihotzeco simplicitaterequin, Christ beçala.
Slaves, obey your earthly masters, with anxious care, giving them ungrudging service, as if obeying the Christ;
6 Ez beguicotzat cerbitzatzen dituçuela, guiçonén gogara eguin nahi bacendute beçala, baina Christen cerbitzari beçala, eguiten duçuelaric Iaincoaren vorondatea gogotic.
not only when their eyes are on you, as if you had merely to please men, but as slaves of Christ, who are trying to carry out the will of God.
7 Affectione onequin cerbitzatzen duçuelaric Iauna, eta ez guiçonac:
Give your service heartily and cheerfully, as working for the Master and not for men;
8 Daquiçuelaric haur, ecen batbederac cerere vngui eguin baituque, hura recebituren duqueela, ala den sclaboc ala librec.
for you know that every one will be rewarded by the Master for any honest work that he has done, whether he is a slave or a freeman.
9 Eta çuec nabussiéc, hura bera eguiçue hetara, vtziric mehatchuac: daquiçuelaric ecen hayén eta çuen Iauna ceruètan dela, eta personén acceptioneric eztela hura baithan.
And masters, treat your slaves in the same spirit. Give up threatening them; for you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in Heaven, and that before him there is no distinction of rank.
10 Gaineracoaz, ene anayeác, fortifica çaitezte gure Iaunean, eta haren indarraren botherean.
For the future, find strength in your union with the Lord, and in the power which comes from his might.
11 Iaunz eçaçue Iaincoaren harmadura gucia, deabruaren celatén contra resisti ahal deçaçuençát.
Put on the full armour of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground against the stratagems of the Devil.
12 Ecen eztugu borrocá odolaren eta haraguiaren contra, baina principaltassunén contra, puissancén contra, munduco iaunén, secula hunetaco ilhumbearen gobernadorén contra, leku celestialetan diraden malitia spiritualén contra. (aiōn g165)
For ours is no struggle against enemies of flesh and blood, but against all the various Powers of Evil that hold sway in the Darkness around us, against the Spirits of Wickedness on high. (aiōn g165)
13 Harren, har eçaçue Iaunaren harmadura gucia, resisti ahal deçaçuençát egun gaitzean, eta guciey garaithuric fermu çaudeten.
Therefore take up the full armour of God, that, when the evil day comes, you may be able to withstand the attack, and, having fought to the end, still to stand your ground.
14 Çareten bada fermu, çuen guerrunceac eguiáz guerricaturic, eta iustitiazco halacreta iaunciric:
Stand your ground, then, ‘with truth for your belt,’ and ‘with righteousness for your breast-plate,’
15 Oinetan iaunciric baquezco Euangelioaren preparationea.
And with the readiness to serve the Good News of Peace as shoes for your feet.
16 Gucién gainetic fedezco broquela harturic, ceinez Gaichtoaren gueci suz eraichequi guciac iraungui ahal ditzaçuen.
At every onslaught take up faith for your shield; for with it you will be able to extinguish all the flaming darts of the Evil One.
17 Saluamendutaco casqueta-ere har eçaçue, eta Spirituaren ezpatá, cein baita Iaincoaren hitza.
And receive ‘the helmet of Salvation,’ and ‘the sword of the Spirit’ — which is the Message of God — always with prayer and supplication.
18 Oratione mota oroz eta supplicationez othoitz eguiten duçuela dembora gucian spirituz, eta hartara iratzarri çaudetela perseuerança gucirequin eta supplicationerequin, saindu guciagatic,
Pray in spirit at all times. Be intent upon this, with unwearying perseverance and supplication for all Christ’s People —
19 Eta enegatic, minçatzea eman daquidançát neure ahoaren irequiteco libertaterequin, notifica deçadançát Euangelioaren mysterioa,
And on my behalf also, that, when I begin to speak, words may be given me, so that I may fearlessly make known the inmost truth of the Good News,
20 Ceinen causaz bainaiz embachadore cadenán, harçaz frangoqui minça nadinçát, minçatu behar dudan beçala.
on behalf of which I am an Ambassador — in chains! Pray that, in telling it, I may speak fearlessly as I ought.
21 Eta daquizquiçuençát çuec-ere ene eguitecoac, eta ni cer ari naicén, Tychique gure anaye maiteac eta gure Iaunean ministre fidelac, gauça guciac notificaturen drauzquiçue:
To enable you, as well as others, to know all that concerns me and what I am doing, Tychicus, our dear Brother and faithful helper in the Master’s Cause, will tell you everything.
22 Cein harengatic beragatic igorri vkan baitut çuetara, iaquin ditzaçuençát gure eguitecoac, eta consola ditzançát çuen bihotzac.
I am sending him to you on purpose that you may learn all about us, and that he may cheer your hearts.
23 Baquea dela anayeoquin, eta charitatea federequin Iainco Aitaganic eta Iesus Christ Iaunaganic.
May God, the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ give our Brothers peace, and love linked with faith.
24 Gratia dela Iesus Christ gure Iaunari puritatetan on daritzaten guciequin.
May God’s blessing be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.
