Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an emissary of Messiah Yeshua through the will of God, to the holy ones who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Messiah Yeshua:
Nene Pauli, mtumi wa Kilisitu Yesu kwa maganu ga Chapanga. Nikuvayandikila nyenye vandu va Chapanga va ku Efeso, mwemwisadika kuwungana na Kilisitu.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
Tikuvaganila uteke na ubwina kuhuma kwa Chapanga Dadi witu na Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Messiah,
Chapanga alumbiwa na Dadi wa Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu! Muni, mweatipelili mota ndalindali za chimpungu kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga mu njila ya Mpungu Msopi.
4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,
Hati kwakona kuwumbwa mulima, Chapanga atihagwili tete tivya vandu vaki mukuwungana na Kilisitu muni tivya vamsopi na changali kubuda. Ndava ya uganu waki.
5 having predestined us for adoption as children through Yeshua the Messiah to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
Chapanga amali kutihagula muni tivya tavana vaki mu njila ya Yesu Kilisitu, ndi cheganili na kugana kwaki mwene.
6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favour in the Beloved.
Hinu, timulumba Chapanga ndava ya ubwina waki ukulu, ndava atipeli Mwana waki mweamuganili!
7 In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
Mukuwungana na Kilisitu ndi tigombolewi kwa ngasi yaki na tilekekiswi kumbudila Chapanga. Ndi chauvi ukulu wa ubwina wa Chapanga,
8 which he made to abound towards us in all wisdom and prudence,
weatipeli tete kwa chipimu chivaha neju muluhala lwaki lwoha na umanya.
9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
Chapanga ahengili chila cheaganili kukita. Na atigubukulili mpangu waki wa mfiyu, weamwili kuutimilisa mu njila ya Mwana waki Yesu Kilisitu.
10 to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Messiah, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.
Mpangu wenuwo ndi ngaatimalisi mulukumbi chakaka ndi viumbi vyoha kuvileta pamonga, kila chindu chechivii kunani kwa Chapanga na pamulima, muulongosi wa Kilisitu.
11 We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,
Chapanga ahengili kila chindu kulandana na maganu gaki. Mwene atihagwili mu njila ya kuwungana na Kilisitu. Muni tivya vandu vaki, lijambu leahamwili kutumbula kulikita.
12 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Messiah.
Hinu, ndi tete vetilongolili kumsadika Kilisitu yikutigana kuulumba ukulu wa Chapanga!
13 In him you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
Mewa na nyenye mwemuyuwini ujumbi wa chakaka ndi Lilovi la Bwina lelileta usangula winu. Mwamsadiki Kilisitu, na Chapanga avikili, ulangisu weulangisa kuvya nyenye ndi vaki, kwa kuvapela Mpungu Msopi mweavalagazili.
14 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.
Mpungu msopi mwenuyo ndi ulangisu wa kulangisa kuvya chakaka yati tipokela. Lijambu lenilo likutilangisa kuvya yati akutigombola tavoha vetivii vaki. Tiulumba ukulu waki.
15 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Yeshua which is amongst you and the love which you have towards all the holy ones,
Ndava yeniyo, kutumbula panakayuwini ndava ya sadika yinu kwa Bambu Yesu, na uganu winu kwa vandu va Chapanga,
16 don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
katu nilekili lepi kumsengusa Chapanga ndava yinu. Nikuvaluwula penikumuyupa Chapanga.
17 that the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him,
Niyendelela kumuyupa Chapanga muni Chapanga wa Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu, Dadi wa ukulu, avapela Mpungu waki wa luhala na kuvagubukulila muuhotala kuumanya.
18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the holy ones,
Nikumuyupa Chapanga ayigubukula mitima yinu yihotola kulola lumuli lwaki, muni muhotola kumanya huvalila yila yeavakemelili na ukulu uvaha na njombi zeavavikili vandu vaki.
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might
Na kumanya namuna makakala chegihenga lihengu mugati yitu tete vetisadiki chegavili gavaha. Uhotola wenuo uhenga lihengu mugati yitu, ndi makakala gavaha neju,
20 which he worked in Messiah when he raised him from the dead and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,
geamyukisi nagu Kilisitu kuhuma kwavevafwili, akamtamika muchiwoko chaki cha kulyelela kunani kwa Chapanga.
21 far above all rule, authority, power, dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
Hinu, kwenuko, Kilisitu ndi chilongosi mkulu wa vachilongosi voha va kunani kwa Chapanga, na uhotola woha na makakala na vankosi voha na vachilongosi. Kila liina leliluwuliwa pamulima uwu, nambu mewa pamulima weubwela. (aiōn g165)
22 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,
Chapanga amupeli Kilisitu kulongosa vindu vyoha na akamvika kuvya mutu wa msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu muni avya mkulu wa vindu vyoha.
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
Vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu ndi higa ya Kilisitu, na utimilifu waki ndi mwene mweitimilisa vindu vyoha kila pandu.
