¹I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

¹Ngkai toe-mi ompi' -ompi', ohe'i paresa' ngkai aku' to ratarungku' sabana pobago-ku hi Pue': kuparesai' -koi bona mo'ingku-koi hewa to masipato' hi ana' Alata'ala, apa' lawi' nakio' -mokoi jadi' ana' -na.

²With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

²Kana dingki' nono-ta pai' mo'olu oa' kehi-ta hi butu nyala-na. Neo' mpotima' kasalaa' doo, agina mosabara pai' moloe ahi' -ta hi himpau kita'.

³Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

³Peloo-lompehi bona neo' ria posisalaa, apa' Inoha' Tomoroli' -mi to mpopohintuwu' -ta omea. Kahintuwuaa' -ta toe kana tapewili' lompe'.

⁴There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

⁴Hawe'ea-ta to mepangala' hi Yesus Kristus, hewa to hawoto lau-ta-wadi, pai' hadua lau-wadi Inoha' Tomoroli' to hi rala nono-ta omea. Hibalia-wadi poncarumakaa-ta omea, apa' Alata'ala mpokio' -ta jadi' ana' -na.

⁵One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

⁵Hadua-wadi Pue' -ta, hanyala-wadi pepangala' -ta, pai' hibalia wo'o-wadi karaniu' -ta hi petuku' -ta hi Pue' Yesus.

⁶One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

⁶Hadua lau-wadi Alata'ala to Tapotuama omea, pai' Hi'a to mpokuasai omea, to mpobago omea, pai' to mpo'ohai' -ta omea.

⁷But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

⁷Aga nau' ria kahibalia-ta toe, uma hibalia kola' -ta, apa' hi butu-butu dua-nata hore-hore rawai' pakulea' mpokamu bago Pue', ntuku' napa to nakolai' -taka Kristus.

⁸Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

⁸Toe pai' ria lolita Buku Tomoroli' owi to mpolowa Kristus, moni-na hewa toi: Ka'oti-na mpodagi bali' -na, ngkahe' -imi hilou hi po'ohaa' to hi kalangkoa-na, pai' -i mpobagi rasi' hi ntodea-na."

⁹(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

⁹Napa batua-na lolita tohe'e? Ane ngkahe' -i hilou hi kalangkoa-na, tantu mana'u ncala' -i tumai hi kadingkia' -na, batua-na hi dunia' tohe'i.

¹⁰He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

¹⁰Kristus to mana'u toei, Hi'a wo'o-wadi to ngkahe' hilou duu' -na mporata-i pohuraa to meliu kalangko-na ngkai hawe'ea to hi langi', bona Hi'a to mpokuasai butu nyala-na.

¹¹And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

¹¹Kristus toe-imi to mpobagi rasi' hi topetuku' -na: hantongo' -ra nawai' pakulea' jadi' suro-na, hantongo' nawai' pakulea' jadi' nabi to mpohowa' lolita Alata'ala, hantongo' nawai' pakulea' mpopalele Kareba Lompe' hi tauna to ko'ia mpo'epei, pai' hantongo' wo'o nawai' pakulea' jadi' pangkeni to mpewili' pai' to mpotudui' hawe'ea topetuku' -na.

¹²For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

¹²Nabagi-taka rasi' toe bona hawe'ea topetuku' -na rarewai hono', bona tapakule' mpewili' bago-na pai' bona kamoroo-rohoa posidaia' -ta hante Hi'a pai' hi himpau ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta hi rala Woto Kristus.

¹³Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

¹³Nabagi-taka rasi' toe, duu' -na rata mpai' tempo-na kita' omea jadi' hanono lau-ta-damo apa' kita' omea mpo'inca pai' mpopangala' Ana' Alata'ala. Kamoroo-rohoa pai' kamonoo-notoa-tamo, duu' -na uma-pi ria kakuraa' -ta, hibalia hante Kristus-tamo.

¹⁴That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

¹⁴Ane hewa toe-tamo, uma-tapa hewa ana' -ana' to jolia rabagiu ba hewa rauniri to nawaro ngolu' hilou tumai. Uma-tapa katuku' -tuku' hinyai' tudui' -tudui', uma-pi ncaliu ta'ome' lolita tauna to doko' mpobagiu-ta hante akala-ra to mepanawu'.

¹⁵But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

¹⁵Uma-tapa jolia rabagiu apa' moroho-mi pengkamu-ta hi tudui' to makono hante nono to ma'ahi'. Kamoroo-rohoa pai' kamonoo-notoa-ta hi butu nyala-na, duu' -na hibalia-tamo hante Kristus. Kristus toei taponcawa Woo' -ta,

¹⁶From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

¹⁶pai' kita' omea rarapai' -ki bagia ngkai Woto Kristus. Ane hi woto manusia', butu nyala bagia-na momeduncu lompe' pai' mome'umpu' lompe' bona jadi' hawoto lau. Wae wo'o kita' to mepangala' hi Kristus: ngkai posidaia' -ta hante Hi'a, mosidai' -tamo hi himpau kita'. Pai' ane butu-butu dua-nata hore-hore mpewili' bago to nabagii-taka Pue', kamoroo-rohoa petuku' -ta hi Pue', pai' katedoo-donihia kahintuwuaa' -ta hadua bo hadua sabana ahi' -ta hi himpau kita'.

¹⁷This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

¹⁷Ngkai toe-mi, hante kuasa to nawai' -ka Pue' tohe'i, ku'uli' pai' kuparesai' -koi hante kanoto-noto-na: neo' -pi nituku' po'ingku tauna to uma mpo'incai Alata'ala, apa' uma mokalaua pekiri-ra.

¹⁸Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

¹⁸Mobengi nono-ra. Uma raratai katuwua' to ngkai Alata'ala, apa' uma mpu'u ra'incai tudui' to makono ngkai Alata'ala. Uma ra'incai apa' ngkai kamotu'a nono-ra.

¹⁹Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

¹⁹Uma-pi ra'incai me'ea', alaa-na mpotuku' -ra konoa woto-ra to dada'a, pai' rapokono rahi mpobabehi butu nyala gau' to uma tumotoa.

²⁰But ye have not so learned Christ;

²⁰Hiaa' koi', bela gau' to hewa toe to natudui' -kokoi Kristus.

²¹If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

²¹Tantu ni'epe-mi libu' -na, pai' ngkai posidaia' -ni hante Hi'a ratudui' -mokoi tudui' to makono to tarata ngkai Yesus.

²²That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

²²Ratudui' -mokoi hewa toi: kana nibahakai po'ingku-ni to ri'ulu to nituku' kako'ia-ni mepangala' hi Pue'. Hawe'ea kahinaa to nituku' nto'u toe mpopanawu' -koi pai' mpogero katuwu' -ni.

²³And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

²³Ratudui' -koi mpobahaka po'ingku-ni to ri'ulu toe, pai' mpopebo'ui nono bo pekiri-ni hi Alata'ala.

²⁴And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

²⁴Pai' ngkai ree babehi-mi po'ingku to bo'u, apa' lawi' Alata'ala mpopajadi' -mokoi manusia' to bo'u, to monoa' pai' moroli' mpu'u, ntuku' po'ingku-na Alata'ala.

²⁵Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

²⁵Toe-mi ompi', bahakai mpu'u-mi po'ingku-ni to ri'ulu toe: neo' -pi moboa', agina mpo'uli' to monoa' hi doo, apa' kita' omea bagia ngkai Woto Kristus-tamo.

²⁶Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

²⁶Ane moroe, neo' roe-ta tohe'e mpakeni-ta mojeko'. Neo' -ta moroe duu' limpa eo,

²⁷Neither give place to the devil.

²⁷bona neo' mpai' ria loga-na Magau' Anudaa' mposori-ta.

²⁸Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

²⁸Tauna to biasa manako, neo' -pi-hawo manako oa'. Agina mobago-ra hante pale-ra moto mpali' pongkoni' -ra, bona ma'ala-ra mpobagii doo to nakakurai'.

²⁹Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

²⁹Neo' ria lolita to dada'a howa' ngkai wiwi-ta. Agina mpohowa' lolita to mpotulungi pai' mporohoi nono doo, hewa to masipato'. Lolita to hewa toe mpokeni kalompea' hi tauna to mpo'epe.

³⁰And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

³⁰Pelompehi po'ingku-ta bona neo' mpopedahi nono Inoha' Tomoroli' to nawai' -taka Alata'ala. Kiwoi-e': Inoha' Tomoroli' toei hewa saa' hi rala nono-ta, apa' Hi'a to jadi' pompetonoi-na kakita' -na bagia-na Alata'ala. Ngkai karia-na Inoha' Tomoroli' hi rala nono-ta toe, monoa' -mi ta'inca karata mpai' tempo-na Alata'ala mpobahaka mpu'u-ta ngkai dunia' to dada'a toi.

³¹Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

³¹Jadi', bahaka-mi hawe'ea kehi to hewa toi: jolia peda' nono, moroe pai' mowuku nono, motuda', metipo' pai' metuntui'-- bahaka-mi omea hante hawe'ea kehi ntani' -na to dada'a.

³²And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

³²Kana lompe' nono-ta pai' momepoka'ahi' -ta hadua bo hadua, pai' mpo'ampungi sala' doo, hewa Alata'ala mpo'ampungi sala' -ta sabana posidaia' -ta hante Kristus.
