< Ephesians 3 >

1 For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles,
Ndava ya genago, nene Pauli mundu mwenikungiwi ndava ya kumhengela Yesu Kilisitu na kuvakokosela Lilovi la Bwina nyenye vandu vangali Vayawudi.
2 if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you,
Chakaka muyuwini kuvya Chapanga, muubwina waki, anigotolili lihengu lenili nihengayi ndava yinu.
3 how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,
Nene namanywisi mu njila ya kugubukuliwa mpangu waki wewafiyiki, niyandiki chihupi lijambu lenili,
4 by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ,
mwavene pemwisoma malovi gangu muhotola kumanya chenimanya mfiyu wenuwo wa Kilisitu.
5 which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit,
Mfiyu wenuwo wamanyiswi lepi kwa vandu muviveleku vingi ngati hinu naha cheyimanywiswi na Mpungu Msopi kwa vamitumi na vamlota vaki vamsopi va Chapanga.
6 that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,
Uwu ndi mfiyu wene, mu njila ya Lilovi la Bwina vandu vagali Vayawudi vipata pandu pavi pamonga na Vayawudi mumota za Chapanga. Vene higa yilayila na vihanganila pamonga lilagizu lilalila leahengili Chapanga kwa njila ya Kilisitu Yesu.
7 of which I was made a servant according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.
Nene nihengiwi kuvya muhengaji wa Lilovi la Bwina kwa njombi ya ubwina wa Chapanga yeanipeli kwa ndava ya uhengaji wa uhotola waki.
8 To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
Pamonga nene mwenivii mdebe kuliku vandu voha va Chapanga, nambu anitangatili ubwina waki, muni nivakokosela vandu va milima umahele wa Kilisitu wangapimika.
9 and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ, (aiōn g165)
Nahaguliwi muni nivajovela vandu voha valola mpangu wa mfiyu wa Chapanga chewihenga lihengu. Chapanga mweawumbili vindu vyoha afiyili mfiyu waki kutumbula kadeni. (aiōn g165)
10 to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,
Muni hinu, mu njila ya msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu, na vachilongosi na vana uhotola pamulima wa chimpungu, vahotola kumanya luhala lwa Chapanga munjila ndalindali.
11 according to the eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōn g165)
Chapanga ahengili lijambu lenili kulandana na mpangu waki wa magono goha gangali mwishu leahegili, mu njila ya Kilisitu Yesu Bambu witu. (aiōn g165)
12 In him we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.
Mukuwungana na Yesu Kilisitu na kwa sadika yitu, tete tihotola kumhambila Chapanga kwa ukekesi changali wogohi.
13 Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.
Ndava yeniyo nikuvayupa neju mkoto kudenyeka mtima ndava ya mang'ahiso gegakunikolela ndava yinu, muni genago ndava ya ukulu winu.
14 For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Ndava ya yeniyo ndi nikumfugamila Dadi,
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
ndi kuhuma kwaki lukolo lwoha pamulima na kunani kwa Chapanga lupokela mahina ga chakaka.
16 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner person,
Nikumuyupa Chapanga, kwa umahele wa ukulu waki, avasindimalisa mitima yinu kwa makakala ga Mpungu Msopi.
17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
Namwene Kilisitu atama mumitima yinu musadika. Nikumuyupa mpata kuvya na mikiga na mkingisa muuganu wa Chapanga,
18 may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth,
muni muhotola kumanya pamonga na vandu voha va Chapanga uganu wa Kilisitu cheuvili muuvaha na utali na mukukula.
19 and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Ena, muhotola kumanya uganu wa Kilisitu umanya woha, ndi mmemeswa neju utimilifu woha wa Chapanga.
20 Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
Chapanga kwa makakala gaki gihenga lihengu mugati yitu ihotola kuhenga mambu gakulu neju hati getiyupa amala kuhololela.
21 to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Kwaki Chapanga kuvya ukulu kwa njila ya msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika na mu njila ya Kilisitu Yesu mwene, lusenje lwoha magono na magono goha gangali mwishu! Ena. (aiōn g165)
