Efisa 2

1 Nangcae sakpazaehaih hoi zaehaih thungah na duek o naah anih mah ang pathawk o;

And you [hath he revived], who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2 canghniah loe hae long atawk baktih, takhi ukkung angraeng koehhaih baktiah na oh o, to muithla loe vaihi doeh lok tahngai ai kaminawk khaeah toksak: (aiōn g165)

In which in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (aiōn g165)

3 canghniah loe aicae boih doeh tang ai kaminawk salakah taksa koehhaih baktiah a sak o toeng, taksa hoi palung mah koeh ih baktih toengah a sak o; kalah kaminawk baktiah, aicae doeh taksa ah palungphuihaih katongh kami ah a oh o.

Among whom also we all had our manner of life in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

4 Toe palungnathaih hoiah kakoi, Sithaw mah kathuk parai angmah ih amlunghaih hoiah aicae to palung pongah,

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

5 zae thungah a duek o naah, Kri hoi nawnto aicae to hingsak let boeh, (tahmenhaih rang hoiah ni pahlong ah na oh o; )

Even when we were dead in sins, hath made us alive together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved; )

6 Anih mah aicae nawnto pathawk moe, Kri Jesu rang hoiah van ahmuen ah aicae han anghnuthaih ahmuen to paek boeh.

And hath raised [us] up together, and made [us] sit together in heavenly [places], in Christ Jesus:

7 Anih mah Kri Jesu rang hoiah angzo han koi adung ah, a palungnathaih hoi kathuk parai tahmenhaih to amtuengsak tih. (aiōn g165)

That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in [his] kindness towards us, through Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)

8 Nangcae loe tahmen pongah, tanghaih rang hoiah, pahlong ah na oh o; nangmacae koehah hak ih na ai ni: Sithaw ih tangqum ni:

For by grace are ye saved, through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:

9 toksakhaih rang hoiah hak ih na ai ni, to tiah nahaeloe mi kawbaktih doeh amoek han om ai.

Not by works, lest any man should boast.

10 Hmuen kahoih a sak o thai hanah, Kri Jesu ah sak ih kami ah a oh o moe, a ban thung hoi tacawt kami ah a oh o, to baktih kahoih hmuen thungah a caeh o thai hanah, Sithaw mah paroep coek boeh.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

11 To pongah nangcae loe canghniah taksa ah Gentel kami ah na oh o, taksa ah ban hoi tangzat hin aat kaminawk mah, tangzat hin aat ai kami, tiah ang kawk o ih lok to poek oh;

Wherefore remember, that ye [being] in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

12 to nathuem ah Kri na tawn o ai vop, Israel kaminawk khaeah angvin ah na oh o pongah, lokkamhaih thungah kaom lokmaihaih thung hoiah doeh angvin ah na oh o; long nuiah Sithaw tawn ai ah na oh o moe, oephaih tawn ai kami ah na oh o:

That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

13 canghniah kangthla ah kaom nangcae loe vaihi Kri ih athii rang hoiah Kri Jesu ah kanghnai ah na oh o boeh.

But now, in Christ Jesus, ye, who formerly were far off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

14 Anih loe aicae misa angdaehhaih ah oh, aicae salakah kaom pakaa ih tapang to phraek moe, hnetto to maeto ah a sak boeh;

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition [between us];

15 a taksa ah misa ah kaom, toksak han kangaih kaalok hoi atawknawk to a phraek; Angmah ah acaeng hnetto to kangtha acaeng maeto ah a sak, to tiah misa angdaehaih to a sak;

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances: to make in himself of two one new man, [so] making peace;

16 thinglam rang hoiah acaeng hnetto to takpum maeto ah a sak, Sithaw khaeah to tiah angdaehhaih to a sak hmaek moe, misa ah ohhaih to a dueksak:

And that he might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, having by it slain the enmity:

17 Anih loe kangthla ah kaom nangcae khae hoi kazoi ah kaom kaminawk khaeah angzoh moe, angdaehhaih tamthanglok to thuih.

And came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

18 Anih rang hoiah aihnik loe Muithla maeto ah Ampa khae akun thaihaih a tawn hoi.

For through him we both have an access by one Spirit to the Father.

19 To pongah nangcae loe vaihi acaeng kalah kami hoi angvin ah na om o ai boeh, prae kami hoi kaciim kami, Sithaw imthungah kaom kami ah ni na oh o boeh;

Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

20 nangcae loe patoeh ih kaminawk hoi tahmaanawk nuiah sak ih im ah ni na oh o boeh, Jesu Kri angmah loe im takii ah tling ih kalen koek thlung ah oh,

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner -[stone];

21 im boih thlung hoi nawnto peh moe, Angraeng ah qoeng tahang pongah, kacai tempul maeto ah oh:

In whom all the building fitly framed together, groweth to a holy temple in the Lord:

22 Muithla ah kaom Sithaw ohhaih ahmuen ah oh thai hanah, nangcae doeh kaicae hoi nawnto im to na sak o toeng.

In whom ye also are built together, for a habitation of God through the Spirit.
