Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
Bino bana, botosaka baboti na bino kati na Nkolo, pamba te yango nde ezali sembo.
2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
Tala mobeko ya liboso oyo ekangani na elaka: Okopesaka tata mpe mama na yo lokumu
3 “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”
mpo ete ozala moto ya esengo mpe ozala na bomoi ya molayi kati na mokili.
4 You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Bino batata, bopesaka bana na bino kanda te, kasi bobokolaka bango kati na mateya mpe makebisi ya Nkolo.
5 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ,
Bino bawumbu, botosaka bankolo na bino ya mokili, na limemia, na kobanga mpe na bosembo ya mitema, lokola nde bozali kotosa Klisto;
6 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
na miso na bango kaka te, lokola nde bozali koluka kosepelisa bato, kasi lokola bawumbu ya Klisto, oyo bazali kosala mokano ya Nzambe wuta na mitema na bango.
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
Bosalaka na esengo lokola bawumbu ya Nkolo, kasi lokola bawumbu ya bato te,
8 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.
pamba te boyebi malamu ete Nkolo akofuta moto nyonso mpo na bolamu nyonso oyo asalaka, azala mowumbu to monsomi.
9 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
Bongo mpo na bino bankolo, bosalaka mpe ndenge wana epai ya bawumbu na bino. Bobangisaka bango te, lokola boyebi malamu ete Nkolo na bango, oyo azali kati na Likolo azali mpe Nkolo na bino mpe aponaka bilongi te.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
Mpo na kosukisa, bozalaka makasi kati na Nkolo mpe kati na nguya na Ye ya monene.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Bolataka bibundeli nyonso ya Nzambe mpo ete bokoka kotelema ngwi liboso ya mayele mabe ya Satana.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (aiōn g165)
Pamba te tobundisaka nzoto te mpe tobundisaka makila te, kasi tobundisaka nde banguya, bakonzi ya milimo ya Satana, bokonzi ya molili, banguya ya mokili ya molili mpe milimo mabe oyo ezali kati na mboka ya milimo. (aiōn g165)
13 Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Yango wana, bolataka bibundeli nyonso ya Nzambe mpo ete bokoka kolonga na mokolo mabe ya Satana mpe kotelema ngwi kino na suka sima na bino kobunda.
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
Boye botelema ngwi, bolataka solo lokola mokaba na loketo, bosembo lokola ebombelo ya tolo,
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace,
molende ya kopanza Sango Malamu ya kimia lokola sapato na makolo na bino.
16 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
Na likolo na nyonso, bobakisaka kondima lokola nguba oyo bokoboma na yango moto ya makonga nyonso oyo Satana akobwakaka.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
Bolataka lobiko lokola ekoti ya ebende, mpe bozwaka Liloba na Nzambe lokola mopanga ya Molimo.
18 with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints.
Mpe bosambelaka tango nyonso na bokambami ya Molimo, na nzela ya lolenge nyonso ya mabondeli mpe ya bisengeli. Mpo na yango, bosenzelaka mpe bomikabaka mobimba mpo na kobondelaka mpo na basantu nyonso.
19 Pray for me, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,
Bobondelaka mpe mpo na ngai mpo ete, tango nyonso nakozala koteya, Nzambe apesa ngai maloba oyo nasengeli kotatola mpo na kosakola mabombami ya Sango Malamu, na kozanga bobangi.
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
Ezali mpo na Sango Malamu yango nde nazali motindami kati na minyololo. Boye, bobondelaka mpo ete natatolaka yango na kozanga bobangi, ndenge nasengeli penza kolobela yango.
21 But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things.
Tishike oyo, kati na Nkolo, azali ndeko molingami mpe mosali ya sembo, akoyebisa bino makambo nyonso, mpo ete bino mpe boyeba ndenge nini nazali mpe makambo nini nazali kosala.
22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.
Ezali na tina yango nde nazali kotinda ye epai na bino, mpo ete apesa bino basango na tina na ngai mpe alendisa bino.
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Tika ete Nzambe Tata mpe Nkolo Yesu-Klisto bapesa na bandeko nyonso kimia, bolingo mpe kondima!
24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Amen.
Tika ete ngolu ezala na bato nyonso oyo balingaka Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, na bolingo oyo ekoki kobeba te!
