Ephesians 4
1 I therefore, being prisoner in the Lord, praie you that yee walke worthie of the vocation whereunto yee are called,
Emomiyo akwayou, an ngʼat motwe nikech tich Ruoth, mondo udag dak mowinjore gi luong ma Nyasaye noluongoue.
2 With all humblenesse of minde, and meekenesse, with long suffering, supporting one an other through loue,
Kinde duto beduru joma muol chutho, modimbore, kendo ma hore mos ka ukawo tingʼ joweteu kuom hera.
3 Endeuouring to keepe the vnitie of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Temuru duto munyalo mondo urit achiel mar Roho ka usiko e kwe moriwou kaachiel.
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, euen as yee are called in one hope of your vocation.
Nitie ringruok achiel kod Roho achiel, mana kaka ne un e geno achiel kane oluongu,
5 There is one Lord, one Faith, one Baptisme,
bende wan gi Ruoth achiel, yie achiel, gi batiso achiel;
6 One God and Father of all, which is aboue all, and through all, and in you all.
Nyasaye achiel kendo Wuon ji duto, en moloyo duto kendo en ema otiyo kuom duto.
7 But vnto euery one of vs is giuen grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Kristo, kaluwore gi dwarone, osemiyo ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomwa ngʼwono.
8 Wherfore he saith, Whe he asceded vp on hie, he led captiuity captiue, and gaue gifts vnto men.
Mano emomiyo Ndiko wacho niya, “Kane oidho odhi malo, nodhi kotelo ni joma nomako e lweny, kendo nomiyo ji mich.”
9 (Nowe, in that hee ascended, what is it but that he had also descended first into the lowest partes of the earth?
(To ere tiend wachni, “Nine oidho?” Donge onyiso ni nolor bende mwalo e bwo piny?
10 Hee that descended, is euen the same that ascended, farre aboue all heauens, that hee might fill all things)
Omiyo Jalno mane olor bende ema noidho malo kuma bor moyombo polo duto, mondo opongʼ piny duto gi duongʼne.)
11 Hee therefore gaue some to be Apostles, and some Prophets, and some Euangelists, and some Pastours, and Teachers,
En bende ema nochiwo mich ni ji koyiero jomoko mondo obedi joote, to jomoko jonabi, to moko joland Injili, to jomoko jokwath gi jopuonj,
12 For the repairing of the Saintes, for the woorke of the ministerie, and for the edification of the bodie of Christ,
mondo gitieg jo-Nyasaye duto obed molony kuom tiyo tich Kristo, eka ringre Kristo ogerre,
13 Till we all meete together (in the vnitie of faith and that acknowledging of the Sonne of God) vnto a perfite man, and vnto the measure of the age of the fulnesse of Christ,
nyaka chop wan duto wabed achiel e yie mawan-go kuom Wuod Nyasaye kendo wamed ngʼeye chutho. Kamano otimore eka wanabed joma otegno chutho, kendo wanachop e rangʼiny mogik kuom Kristo.
14 That we henceforth be no more children, wauering and caried about with euery winde of doctrine, by the deceit of men, and with craftines, whereby they lay in wait to deceiue.
Koro ok wanachak wabed kaka nyithindo mayom yom, ma bagni koni gi koni nikech yamb puonj mayoreyore, ma dhano molal siekogo mondo giwuondwago kendo gigolwago oko e yie madiera.
15 But let vs folowe the truth in loue, and in all things, grow vp into him, which is the head, that is, Christ.
To wanasiki ka wawacho adiera e hera kendo ka wadongo e gik moko duto kuom Kristo ma en ewi ringruok.
16 By whome al the body being coupled and knit together by euery ioynt, for ye furniture therof (according to the effectual power, which is in the measure of euery part) receiueth increase of the body, vnto the edifying of itselfe in loue.
Kuome ema ringruok duto ochomore, leche omakore gi fuoni ka fuoni, kendo ka fuoni moro ka moro tiyo tichne kaka dwarore. Kuom mano ringruok dongo kendo gerore kuom hera.
17 This I say therefore and testifie in the Lord, that yee hencefoorth walke not as other Gentiles walke, in vanitie of their minde,
Kuom mano, awachonu ka aramo kuom Ruoth, ni neuru ni ok uwuothi kaka jopiny makia Nyasaye wuotho ka pachgi modinore wuondogi.
18 Hauing their vnderstanding darkened, and being strangers from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardnesse of their heart:
Gin mudho odino pachgi, momiyo gipogore gi ngima mar Nyasaye nikech kia margi mawuok e chunygi.
19 Which being past feeling, haue giuen themselues vnto wantonnesse, to woorke all vncleannesse, euen with griedinesse.
Kaka parogi mar pogo ber gi rach osetho, koro giwere ni anjawo kod timbe duto ma ok ler ma gigombo timo.
20 But yee haue not so learned Christ,
Un to, ne ok ungʼeyo Kristo e yo machal kamano.
21 If so be yee haue heard him, and haue bene taught by him, as the trueth is in Iesus,
Adier, ne uwinjo kuome, kendo ne opuonju wachne, kaluwore gadiera man kuom Yesu.
22 That is, that yee cast off, concerning the conuersation in time past, that olde man, which is corrupt through the deceiueable lustes,
Ne opuonju mondo uwe kit ngimau machon kendo ulony dhano machon makelo kethruok nikech gombo maricho mag wuond.
23 And be renued in the spirit of your minde,
Mano notimore mondo chunyu maiye mar parou oloki obed manyien,
24 And put on ye new man, which after God is created vnto righteousnes, and true holines.
kendo mondo urwakru gi dhano manyien, mochwe mondo ochal gi Nyasaye kuom ngima makare mar adier kendo maler.
25 Wherefore cast off lying, and speake euery man truth vnto his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
Emomiyo, ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu nyaka we miriambo duto kendo wach adiera ne nyawadgi, nikech wan duto wan fuond ringruok achiel.
26 Bee angrie, but sinne not: let not the sunne goe downe vpon your wrath,
“Kaponi iu owangʼ, to kik utim richo.” Kik uwe chiengʼ podhi ka pod un gi ich wangʼ
27 Neither giue place to the deuill.
kendo kik imi jachien thuolo mar loyi.
28 Let him that stole, steale no more: but let him rather labour, and worke with his handes the thing which is good, that hee may haue to giue vnto him that needeth.
Ngʼato ma yande kwalo nyaka koro we kuo chuth, to nyaka oti tich gi lwete owuon mondo okonyrego kendo okony bende joma moko mochando.
29 Let no corrupt comunication proceed out of your mouths: but that which is good, to ye vse of edifying, that it may minister grace vnto the hearers.
Kik uyie weche maricho wuogi e dhou, to mana weche mabeyo manyalo konyo kuom gero ji kaluwore gi dwarogi mondo wecheu okony joma winjo.
30 And grieue not the holy Spirit of God, by whom ye are sealed vnto ye day of redemption.
Bende kik umi Roho Maler mar Nyasaye chuny lit nikech en ema Nyasaye osemiyougo kaka ranyisi ni noresu chiengʼ resruok.
31 Let all bitternesse, and anger, and wrath, crying, and euill speaking be put away from you, with all maliciousnesse.
Weuru kecho gi mirima gi ich wangʼ gi gwandruok gi himruok gi ketho nying kod himruok duto.
32 Be ye courteous one to another, and tender hearted, freely forgiuing one another, euen as God for Christes sake, freely forgaue you.
Beduru mangʼwon kendo gi kech ni joweteu, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato weyo ni nyawadgi richone, mana kaka un bende Nyasaye noweyonu richou kuom Kristo.
