Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
he bālakāḥ, yūyaṁ prabhum uddiśya pitrorājñāgrāhiṇo bhavata yatastat nyāyyaṁ|
2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
tvaṁ nijapitaraṁ mātarañca sammanyasveti yo vidhiḥ sa pratijñāyuktaḥ prathamo vidhiḥ
3 “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”
phalatastasmāt tava kalyāṇaṁ deśe ca dīrghakālam āyu rbhaviṣyatīti|
4 You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
aparaṁ he pitaraḥ, yūyaṁ svabālakān mā roṣayata kintu prabho rvinītyādeśābhyāṁ tān vinayata|
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,
he dāsāḥ, yūyaṁ khrīṣṭam uddiśya sabhayāḥ kampānvitāśca bhūtvā saralāntaḥkaraṇairaihikaprabhūnām ājñāgrāhiṇo bhavata|
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,
dṛṣṭigocarīyaparicaryyayā mānuṣebhyo rocituṁ mā yatadhvaṁ kintu khrīṣṭasya dāsā iva niviṣṭamanobhirīścarasyecchāṁ sādhayata|
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
mānavān anuddiśya prabhumevoddiśya sadbhāvena dāsyakarmma kurudhvaṁ|
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.
dāsamuktayo ryena yat satkarmma kriyate tena tasya phalaṁ prabhuto lapsyata iti jānīta ca|
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.
aparaṁ he prabhavaḥ, yuṣmābhi rbhartsanaṁ vihāya tān prati nyāyyācaraṇaṁ kriyatāṁ yaśca kasyāpi pakṣapātaṁ na karoti yuṣmākamapi tādṛśa ekaḥ prabhuḥ svarge vidyata iti jñāyatāṁ|
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
adhikantu he bhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ prabhunā tasya vikramayuktaśaktyā ca balavanto bhavata|
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
yūyaṁ yat śayatānaśchalāni nivārayituṁ śaknutha tadartham īśvarīyasusajjāṁ paridhaddhvaṁ|
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)
yataḥ kevalaṁ raktamāṁsābhyām iti nahi kintu kartṛtvaparākramayuktaistimirarājyasyehalokasyādhipatibhiḥ svargodbhavai rduṣṭātmabhireva sārddham asmābhi ryuddhaṁ kriyate| (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.
ato heto ryūyaṁ yayā saṁkule dine'vasthātuṁ sarvvāṇi parājitya dṛḍhāḥ sthātuñca śakṣyatha tām īśvarīyasusajjāṁ gṛhlīta|
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
vastutastu satyatvena śṛṅkhalena kaṭiṁ baddhvā puṇyena varmmaṇā vakṣa ācchādya
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace,
śānteḥ suvārttayā jātam utsāhaṁ pādukāyugalaṁ pade samarpya tiṣṭhata|
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.
yena ca duṣṭātmano'gnibāṇān sarvvān nirvvāpayituṁ śakṣyatha tādṛśaṁ sarvvācchādakaṁ phalakaṁ viśvāsaṁ dhārayata|
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
śirastraṁ paritrāṇam ātmanaḥ khaṅgañceśvarasya vākyaṁ dhārayata|
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.
sarvvasamaye sarvvayācanena sarvvaprārthanena cātmanā prārthanāṁ kurudhvaṁ tadarthaṁ dṛḍhākāṅkṣayā jāgrataḥ sarvveṣāṁ pavitralokānāṁ kṛte sadā prārthanāṁ kurudhvaṁ|
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,
ahañca yasya susaṁvādasya śṛṅkhalabaddhaḥ pracārakadūto'smi tam upayuktenotsāhena pracārayituṁ yathā śaknuyāṁ
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
tathā nirbhayena svareṇotsāhena ca susaṁvādasya nigūḍhavākyapracārāya vaktṛtā yat mahyaṁ dīyate tadarthaṁ mamāpi kṛte prārthanāṁ kurudhvaṁ|
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.
aparaṁ mama yāvasthāsti yacca mayā kriyate tat sarvvaṁ yad yuṣmābhi rjñāyate tadarthaṁ prabhunā priyabhrātā viśvāsyaḥ paricārakaśca tukhiko yuṣmān tat jñāpayiṣyati|
22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.
yūyaṁ yad asmākam avasthāṁ jānītha yuṣmākaṁ manāṁsi ca yat sāntvanāṁ labhante tadarthamevāhaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhiṁ taṁ preṣitavāna|
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
aparam īśvaraḥ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭaśca sarvvebhyo bhrātṛbhyaḥ śāntiṁ viśvāsasahitaṁ prema ca deyāt|
24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Amen.
ye kecit prabhau yīśukhrīṣṭe'kṣayaṁ prema kurvvanti tān prati prasādo bhūyāt| tathāstu|
