¹Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

¹[Fiarahabana nataon'i Paoly, sy fiderany an'Andriamanitra noho ny soa avy amin'ny avotra nataon'i Kristy] Paoly, Apostolin'i Kristy Jesosy noho ny sitrapon'Andriamanitra, mamangy ny olona masina any Efesosy, izay mahatoky ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy: [ Na: mino an']

²Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

²ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin'Andriamanitra Raintsika sy Jesosy Kristy Tompo.

³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

³Isaorana anie Andriamanitra, Rain'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika, Izay nitahy antsika tao amin'i Kristy amin'ny fitahiam-panahy rehetra any an-danitra,

⁴According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

⁴araka ny nifidianany antsika tao aminy, fony tsy mbola ary ny fanorenan'izao tontolo izao, mba ho masina sady tsy misy tsiny eo anatrehany isika,

⁵Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

⁵rehefa notendreny rahateo amin'ny fitiavana isika mba ho Azy amin'ny fananganan'anaka amin'ny alalan'i Jesosy Kristy, araka izay ankasitrahan'ny fony, [ Na: amin'ny fitiavana, rehefa notendreny rahateo ho Azy isika]

⁶To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

⁶ho fiderana ny voninahitry ny fahasoavany, izay nanasoavany antsika maimaimpoana ao amin'ny Malala.

⁷In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

⁷Izy no ananantsika fanavotana amin'ny ràny, dia ny famelana ny fahadisoantsika, araka ny haren'ny fahasoavany,

⁸Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

⁸izay nataony be ho antsika tamin'ny fahendrena sy ny fisainana rehetra,

⁹Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

⁹rehefa nampahafantariny ny zava-miafina ny amin'ny sitrapony isika, araka ny safidiny izay nokasain'ny tenany,

¹⁰That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

¹⁰hahatanterahany ny fitondrana hatao mandra-pahatapitry ny andro voatendry, hanangonany ny zavatra rehetra ho iray ao amin'i Kristy, na ny any an-danitra, na ny etỳ an-tany, dia ho ao aminy; [ Na: hanangonany indray]

¹¹In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

¹¹ao aminy koa no nanaovana antsika ho lovany, rehefa notendrena rahateo isika araka ny fikasan'izay mahefa ny zavatra rehetra araka ny ankasitrahan'ny fony, [ Na: no nandraisantsika ny lova]

¹²That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

¹²mba ho fiderana ny voninahiny izahay, izay nanantena an'i Kristy rahateo.

¹³In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

¹³Ao aminy koa ianareo, rehefa renareo ny tenin'ny fahamarinana, dia ny filazantsara famonjena anareo,- eny, ao aminy koa ianareo, rehefa nino, no nasiana tombo-kase tamin'ny Fanahy Masina araka ny teny fikasana.

¹⁴Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

¹⁴Izany Fanahy izany no santatry ny lovantsika ho amin'ny fanavotana ny olona izay nahiny ho an'ny tenany, ho fiderana ny voninahiny.

¹⁵Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

¹⁵[Fivavahana ho an'ny Kristiana tao Efesosy mba handrosoany hahalala ny hatsaran'ny famonjena, sy fampahatsiarovana azy ny halehiben'ny fitiavan'Andriamanitra] Ary noho izany izaho koa, rehefa nandre ny finoanareo an'i Jesosy Tompo izay hitan'ny olona masina rehetra, [ Na: (ny finoanareo an'i Jesosy Tompo sy ny fitiavanareo)]

¹⁶Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

¹⁶dia tsy mitsahatra misaotra noho ny aminareo ka mahatsiaro anareo amin'ny fivavahako,

¹⁷That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

¹⁷mba homen'Andriamanitr'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika, Rain'ny voninahitra, ho anareo ny fanahin'ny fahendrena sy ny fanambarana amin'ny fahalalana Azy tsara,

¹⁸The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

¹⁸ary mba hampahiratina ny mason'ny sainareo, mba ho fantatrareo izay fanantenana avy amin'ny fiantsoany sy izay haren'ny voninahitry ny lovany eo amin'ny olona masina,

¹⁹And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

¹⁹ary ny fihoaran'ny halehiben'ny heriny ho antsika izay mino, araka ny fiàsan'ny herin'ny faherezany,

²⁰Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

²⁰izay nataony tao amin'i Kristy tamin'ny nananganany Azy tamin'ny maty sy ny nampitoerany Azy eo amin'ny tànany ankavanana any an-danitra,

²¹Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

²¹ambony lavitra noho ny fanapahana rehetra sy ny fahefana sy ny hery sy ny fanjakana ary ny anarana rehetra izay tononina, tsy amin'izao fiainana izao ihany, fa amin'ny ho avy koa,

²²And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

²²dia nampanaiky ny zavatra rehetra ho eo ambanin'ny tongony Izy ka nanao Azy ho Lohany manapaka ny zavatra rehetra ho an'ny fiangonana, [ Gr. eklesia]izay tenany, dia ny fahafenoan'izay mameno izao zavatra rehetra izao amin'ny rehetra.

²³Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

²³izay tenany, dia ny fahafenoan'izay mameno izao zavatra rehetra izao amin'ny rehetra.
