Efeso 5
1 Ngarud agbalinkayo a mannulad ti Dios, a kas dagiti ay-ayatenna nga annak.
Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children,
2 Ken agbiagtayo iti ayat, kas inayatnatayo met ni Cristo ken intedna ti bagina para kadatayo. Maysa isuna a daton ken sagut, nga agbalin a makaay-ayo nga ayamuom iti Dios.
and walk in love, even as the Christ loved us, and delivered himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour.
3 Nasken a saan a madakamat kadakayo ti kinaderrep wenno aniaman a kinarugit wenno nagartem a panangagum, a kas umno kadagiti namati.
But fornication and all uncleanness or unbridled lust, let it not be even named among you, as it becomes saints;
4 Saanyo nga ibaga uray dagiti naaalas, minamaag a sasao, wenno makaidadanes nga angaw, a saan nga umno. Ngem ketdi adda koma ti kinamanagyaman.
and filthiness and foolish talking, or jesting, which are not convenient; but rather thanksgiving.
5 Ta nalawag nga ammoyo nga awan ti naderrep, narugit, wenno naagum a tao, nga isu ket, maysa nga agrukbab kadagiti didiosen, nga adda tawidna iti pagarian ni Cristo ken ti Dios.
For this ye are [well] informed of, knowing that no fornicator, or unclean person, or person of unbridled lust, who is an idolater, has inheritance in the kingdom of the Christ and God.
6 Saanyo a palubosan iti uray maysa nga allilawennakayo babaen ti ubbaw a sasao. Gapu kadagitoy a banbanag ket umay ti pungtot ti Dios kadagiti annak ti kinasukir.
Let no one deceive you with vain words, for on account of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7 Isu a saankayo a makipaset kadagitoy.
Be not ye therefore fellow-partakers with them;
8 Ta naminsan a dakayo ket kinasipnget, ngem ita ket lawagkayon iti Apo. Isu a magnakayo a kas annak ti lawag.
for ye were once darkness, but now light in [the] Lord; walk as children of light,
9 Ta ti bunga ti lawag ket amin a kinaimbag, kinalinteg, ken kinapudno.
(for the fruit of the light [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth, )
10 Ammoenyo ania iti makaay-ayo iti Apo.
proving what is agreeable to the Lord;
11 Saankayo a makipaset kadagiti saan a nabunga nga ar-aramid iti kinasipnget. Ngem ketdi, ibutaktakyo dagitoy.
and do not have fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather also reprove [them],
12 Ta dagiti banbanag a naaramid babaen kadakuada iti nalimed ket nakababain unay nga iladawan.
for the things that are done by them in secret it is shameful even to say.
13 Amin a banbanag, no maiparangarangda babaen iti lawag, ket naibutaktak.
But all things having their true character exposed by the light are made manifest; for that which makes everything manifest is light.
14 Ta ti tunggal banag a naiparangarang ket agbalin a lawag. Ngarud ibagbaga daytoy, “Agriingkayo, dakayo a matmaturog, ket agungarkayo manipud iti patay, ket agranniagto ni Cristo kadakayo.”
Wherefore he says, Wake up, [thou] that sleepest, and arise up from among the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.
15 Ngarud agannadkayo iti panagbiagyo, saan a kas kadagiti tattao a saan a nasirib ngem kas nasirib.
See therefore how ye walk carefully, not as unwise but as wise,
16 Subbotenyo iti tiempo gapu ta dagiti al-aldaw ket dakes.
redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 Saankayo nga agbalin a maag. Ngem ketdi, awatenyo no ania ti pagayatan iti Dios.
For this reason be not foolish, but understanding what [is] the will of the Lord.
18 Ken saankayo nga agbartek iti arak, ta mangiturong dayta iti pannakadadael. Ngem ketdi, mapnokayo koma iti Espiritu Santo.
And be not drunk with wine, in which is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,
19 Agsaritakayo iti tunggal maysa babaen kadagiti salmo ken kadagiti himno ken naespirituan a kankanta. Agkanta ken agdaydayawkayo babaen iti pusoyo iti Apo.
speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and chanting with your heart to the Lord;
20 Agyamankayo a kankanayon para kadagiti amin a banbanag iti nagan ni Apotayo a Jesu-Cristo iti Dios Ama.
giving thanks at all times for all things to him [who is] God and [the] Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
21 Agpaituraykayo iti tumunggal maysa kas panagraem kenni Cristo.
submitting yourselves to one another in [the] fear of Christ.
22 Assawa a babbai, agpaituraykayo kadagiti assawayo a lallaki, a kas iti Apo.
Wives, [submit yourselves] to your own husbands, as to the Lord,
23 Ta ti asawa a lalaki ti ulo iti asawa a babai, a kas met ni Cristo nga ulo iti iglesia. Isuna iti mangisalakan iti bagi.
for a husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ [is] head of the assembly. He [is] Saviour of the body.
24 Ngem kas iti iglesia ket iturayan ni Cristo, kasta met dagiti asawa a babbai kadagiti asawada a lallaki iti amin a banag.
But even as the assembly is subjected to the Christ, so also wives to their own husbands in everything.
25 Asawa a lallaki, ayatenyo dagiti asawayo a babbai a kas inayat ni Cristo ti iglesia ken intedna ti bagina para kenkuana.
Husbands, love your own wives, even as the Christ also loved the assembly, and has delivered himself up for it,
26 Inaramidna daytoy tapno mapagbalinna isuna a nasantoan. Dinalusanna ti iglesia babaen iti panangugasna iti danum babaen ti sao.
in order that he might sanctify it, purifying [it] by the washing of water by [the] word,
27 Inaramidna daytoy tapno maiparangna iti bagina ti maysa a nadayag nga iglesia, nga awan mansana wenno karetket wenno aniaman a kas kadagitoy a banag, ngem ketdi nasantoan ken awan biddutna.
that he might present the assembly to himself glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any of such things; but that it might be holy and blameless.
28 Iti isu met laeng a wagas, masapul nga ayaten dagiti asawa a lallaki dagiti bukodda nga asawa a babbai a kas bukodda a bagi. Ti siasinoman nga agay-ayat iti bukodna nga asawa a babai ket ay-ayatenna ti bagina.
So ought men also to love their own wives as their own bodies: he that loves his own wife loves himself.
29 Awan ti siasinoman a nanggura iti bukodna a bagi. Ngem ketdi, pakanenna ken ayatenna daytoy, a kas ay-ayaten met ni Cristo ti iglesia.
For no one has ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as also the Christ the assembly:
30 Ta kamkamengnatayo iti bagina.
for we are members of his body; [we are of his flesh, and of his bones.]
31 “Para iti daytoy a rason a panawan ti lalaki ti ama ken inana ket maitipon iti asawana a babai, ket ti dua ket agbalin a maysa a bagi.”
Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.
32 Daytoy ket dakkel a nailimed a kinapudno, ngem agsasaoak maipanggep kenni Cristo ken ti iglesia.
This mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly.
33 Nupay kasta, masapul met nga ayaten ti tunggal maysa kadakayo ti bukodna nga asawa a babai a kas iti bagina, ken masapul a raemen ti asawa a babai ti asawana a lalaki.
But ye also, every one of you, let each so love his own wife as himself; but as to the wife [I speak] that she may fear the husband.
