Ephesians 4
1 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,
| ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܤܝܪܐ ܒܡܪܢ ܕܬܗܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܝܐܐ ܠܩܪܝܢܐ ܕܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ |
2 with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
| ܒܟܠܗ ܡܟܝܟܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܘܢܝܚܘܬܐ ܘܢܓܝܪܘܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܤܝܒܪܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܒܚܘܒܐ |
3 being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
| ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܚܦܝܛܝܢ ܠܡܛܪ ܐܘܝܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܒܚܙܩܐ ܕܫܠܡܐ |
4 There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling,
| ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܦܓܪܐ ܘܒܚܕܐ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܩܪܝܢܟܘܢ |
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
| ܚܕ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܚܕܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܚܕܐ ܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܐ |
6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in us all.
| ܘܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܕܟܠ ܘܥܠ ܟܠ ܘܒܝܕ ܟܠ ܘܒܟܠܢ |
7 But to each one of us, the grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
| ܠܚܕ ܚܕ ܡܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܕܡܘܗܒܬܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ |
8 Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to people.”
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܝܪ ܕܤܠܩ ܠܡܪܘܡܐ ܘܫܒܐ ܫܒܝܬܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ |
9 Now this, “He ascended”, what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?
| ܕܤܠܩ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܕܐܦ ܢܚܬ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܠܬܚܬܝܬܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ |
10 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.
| ܗܘ ܕܢܚܬ ܗܘܝܘ ܗܘ ܕܐܦ ܤܠܩ ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܢܫܠܡ ܟܠ |
11 He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers;
| ܘܗܘ ܝܗܒ ܐܝܬ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܡܤܒܪܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܪܥܘܬܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܡܠܦܢܐ |
12 for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ,
| ܠܓܡܪܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܕܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܐ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ |
13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
| ܥܕܡܐ ܕܟܠܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܚܕ ܡܕܡ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܒܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܚܕ ܓܒܪܐ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܒܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܕܩܘܡܬܐ ܕܫܘܡܠܝܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ |
14 that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;
| ܘܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܕܡܙܕܥܙܥܝܢ ܘܡܫܬܢܝܢ ܠܟܠ ܪܘܚ ܕܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܢܟܝܠܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܚܪܥܘܬܗܘܢ ܡܨܛܢܥܝܢ ܕܢܛܥܘܢ |
15 but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ,
| ܐܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܫܪܝܪܝܢ ܒܚܘܒܢ ܕܟܘܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܝܠܢ ܢܪܒܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܪܫܐ |
16 from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.
| ܘܡܢܗ ܟܠܗ ܦܓܪܐ ܡܬܪܟܒ ܘܡܬܩܛܪ ܒܟܠ ܫܪܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܡܬܝܗܒܐ ܒܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܠܟܠ ܗܕܡ ܠܬܪܒܝܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܒܚܘܒܐ ܢܫܬܠܡ ܒܢܝܢܗ |
17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,
| ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܘܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܒܡܪܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ ܕܥܡܡܐ ܕܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܒܤܪܝܩܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܗܘܢ |
18 being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts.
| ܘܚܫܘܟܝܢ ܒܡܕܥܝܗܘܢ ܘܢܘܟܪܝܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܝܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܝܬ ܒܗܘܢ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܘܡܛܠ ܥܘܝܪܘܬ ܠܒܗܘܢ |
19 They, having become callous, gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܦܤܩܘ ܤܒܪܗܘܢ ܘܐܫܠܡܘ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܠܦܚܙܘܬܐ ܘܠܦܘܠܚܢܐ ܕܟܠܗ ܛܢܦܘܬܐ ܒܝܥܢܘܬܗܘܢ |
20 But you didn’t learn Christ that way,
| ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܝܠܦܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܠܡܫܝܚܐ |
21 if indeed you heard him and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus:
| ܐܢ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܫܡܥܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܒܗ ܝܠܦܬܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܩܘܫܬܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ |
22 that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit,
| ܐܠܐ ܕܬܢܝܚܘܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܗܘܦܟܝܟܘܢ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܗܘ ܥܬܝܩܐ ܕܡܬܚܒܠ ܒܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܛܘܥܝܝ |
23 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
| ܘܬܬܚܕܬܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܕܥܝܟܘܢ |
24 and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.
| ܘܬܠܒܫܘܢ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܐܠܗܐ ܐܬܒܪܝ ܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܘܒܚܤܝܘܬܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ |
25 Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܝܚܘ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܟܕܒܘܬܐ ܘܡܠܠܘ ܩܘܫܬܐ ܐܢܫ ܥܡ ܩܪܝܒܗ ܗܕܡܐ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܚܕ ܕܚܕ |
26 “Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,
| ܪܓܙܘ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܛܘܢ ܘܫܡܫܐ ܥܠ ܪܘܓܙܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܢܥܪܒ |
27 and don’t give place to the devil.
| ܘܠܐ ܬܬܠܘܢ ܐܬܪܐ ܠܐܟܠ ܩܪܨܐ |
28 Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, producing with his hands something that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.
| ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܓܢܒ ܗܘܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܢܓܢܘܒ ܐܠܐ ܢܠܐܐ ܒܐܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܢܦܠܘܚ ܛܒܬܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܠܡܬܠ ܠܡܢ ܕܤܢܝܩ |
29 Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.
| ܟܠ ܡܠܐ ܤܢܝܐ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܦܘܩ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܫܦܝܪܐ ܘܚܫܚܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܐ ܕܬܬܠ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܝܢ |
30 Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
| ܘܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܥܝܩܝܢ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܩܕܝܫܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܚܬܡܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܦܘܪܩܢܐ |
31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice.
| ܟܠܗ ܡܪܝܪܘܬܐ ܘܚܡܬܐ ܘܪܘܓܙܐ ܘܪܘܒܐ ܘܓܘܕܦܐ ܢܫܬܩܠܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܥܡ ܟܠܗ ܒܝܫܘܬܐ |
32 And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
| ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܤܝܡܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܘܬ ܚܕ ܘܡܪܚܡܢܝܢ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܫܒܩܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܫܒܩ ܠܢ |
