Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
he bAlakAH, yUyaM prabhum uddishya pitrorAj nAgrAhiNo bhavata yatastat nyAyyaM|
2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
tvaM nijapitaraM mAtara ncha sammanyasveti yo vidhiH sa pratij nAyuktaH prathamo vidhiH
3 “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”
phalatastasmAt tava kalyANaM deshe cha dIrghakAlam Ayu rbhaviShyatIti|
4 You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
aparaM he pitaraH, yUyaM svabAlakAn mA roShayata kintu prabho rvinItyAdeshAbhyAM tAn 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 dAsAH, yUyaM khrIShTam uddishya sabhayAH kampAnvitAshcha bhUtvA saralAntaHkaraNairaihikaprabhUnAm Aj nAgrAhiNo 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,
dR^iShTigocharIyaparicharyyayA mAnuShebhyo rochituM mA yatadhvaM kintu khrIShTasya dAsA iva niviShTamanobhirIshcharasyechChAM sAdhayata|
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
mAnavAn anuddishya prabhumevoddishya sadbhAvena dAsyakarmma kurudhvaM|
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.
dAsamuktayo ryena yat satkarmma kriyate tena tasya phalaM prabhuto lapsyata iti jAnIta cha|
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.
aparaM he prabhavaH, yuShmAbhi rbhartsanaM vihAya tAn prati nyAyyAcharaNaM kriyatAM yashcha kasyApi pakShapAtaM na karoti yuShmAkamapi tAdR^isha ekaH prabhuH svarge vidyata iti j nAyatAM|
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
adhikantu he bhrAtaraH, yUyaM prabhunA tasya vikramayuktashaktyA cha balavanto bhavata|
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
yUyaM yat shayatAnashChalAni nivArayituM shaknutha tadartham IshvarIyasusajjAM paridhaddhvaM|
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)
yataH kevalaM raktamAMsAbhyAm iti nahi kintu kartR^itvaparAkramayuktaistimirarAjyasyehalokasyAdhipatibhiH svargodbhavai rduShTAtmabhireva sArddham asmAbhi ryuddhaM 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 ryUyaM yayA saMkule dine. avasthAtuM sarvvANi parAjitya dR^iDhAH sthAtu ncha shakShyatha tAm IshvarIyasusajjAM gR^ihlIta|
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
vastutastu satyatvena shR^i Nkhalena kaTiM baddhvA puNyena varmmaNA vakSha AchChAdya
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace,
shAnteH suvArttayA jAtam utsAhaM pAdukAyugalaM pade samarpya tiShThata|
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 cha duShTAtmano. agnibANAn sarvvAn nirvvApayituM shakShyatha tAdR^ishaM sarvvAchChAdakaM phalakaM vishvAsaM dhArayata|
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
shirastraM paritrANam AtmanaH kha Nga ncheshvarasya vAkyaM dhArayata|
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.

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,
aha ncha yasya susaMvAdasya shR^i NkhalabaddhaH prachArakadUto. asmi tam upayuktenotsAhena prachArayituM yathA shaknuyAM
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
tathA nirbhayena svareNotsAhena cha susaMvAdasya nigUDhavAkyaprachArAya vaktR^itA yat mahyaM dIyate tadarthaM mamApi kR^ite prArthanAM kurudhvaM|
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.
aparaM mama yAvasthAsti yachcha mayA kriyate tat sarvvaM yad yuShmAbhi rj nAyate tadarthaM prabhunA priyabhrAtA vishvAsyaH parichArakashcha tukhiko yuShmAn tat j nApayiShyati|
22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.
yUyaM yad asmAkam avasthAM jAnItha yuShmAkaM manAMsi cha yat sAntvanAM labhante tadarthamevAhaM yuShmAkaM sannidhiM taM preShitavAna|
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Amen.
