¹Also you — being dead in the trespasses and the sins,

¹¶ Me koutou ano nana i whakaora, i te mea he tupapaku i nga he, i nga hara,

²in which once ye did walk according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience,

²I haereerea ra e koutou i mua i runga i ta tenei ao tikanga, i ta te rangatira o te kaha o nga kapua, o te wairua e mahi nei inaianei i roto i nga tama a te tutu.

³among whom also we all did walk once in the desires of our flesh, doing the wishes of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath — as also the others,

³Ara i era hoa o tatou katoa i mua, i a tatou e noho ana i runga i nga hiahia o to tatou kikokiko, e mahi ana i nga mea e paingia ana e te kikokiko, e te whakaaro, i te maoritanga hoki he tamariki na te riri, he pera me era atu.

⁴and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,

⁴¶ Ko ta te Atua ia tenei, ranea rawa hoki tana mahi tohu, nui atu tona aroha i arohaina mai ai tatou e ia,

⁵even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved,)

⁵I te mea he tupapaku tatou i nga he, whakaorangia ngatahitia ana tatou e ia me te Karaiti, he aroha noa i whakaorangia ai koutou;

⁶and did raise [us] up together, and did seat [us] together in the heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus,

⁶A whakaarahia ngatahitia ana e ia, whakanohoia ngatahitia ana ki nga wahi o te rangi i roto i a Karaiti Ihu:

⁷that He might show, in the ages that are coming, the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus,

⁷Kia whakakite ai e ia i nga wa e haere ake nei te hira o te taonga o tona aroha noa, i a ia ka manaaki i a tatou i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.

⁸for by grace ye are having been saved, through faith, and this not of you — of God the gift,

⁸Na te aroha noa hoki koutou i whakaorangia ai i runga i te whakapono; ehara ano hoki tenei i te mea no koutou: he mea homai noa na te Atua:

⁹not of works, that no one may boast;

⁹Ehara i nga mahi, kei whakamanamana te tangata.

¹⁰for of Him we are workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God did before prepare, that in them we may walk.

¹⁰He mahinga hoki tatou nana, he mea hanga i roto i a Karaiti Ihu mo nga mahi pai i whakaritea e te Atua i mua hei haereerenga mo tatou.

¹¹Wherefore, remember, that ye [were] once the nations in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that called Circumcision in the flesh made by hands,

¹¹¶ Na, kia mahara he tauiwi koutou i mua no te wahi ki te kikokiko, e kiia ana hoki ko te Kotingakore e tenei e kiia nei ko te Kotinga, ara to te kikokiko, he mea na te ringa;

¹²that ye were at that time apart from Christ, having been alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope, and without God, in the world;

¹²I taua wa he mea motu ke atu koutou i a te Karaiti, ehara i te tangata whenua no Iharaira, he tangata ke ki nga kawenata o te mea i whakaaria mai i mua, kahore he tumanakotanga atu, he hunga Atuakore i te ao.

¹³and now, in Christ Jesus, ye being once afar off became nigh in the blood of the Christ,

¹³Na, inaianei i roto i a Karaiti Ihu, ko koutou, ko te hunga i tawhiti i mua, kua meinga e nga toto o te Karaiti kia tata.

¹⁴for he is our peace, who did make both one, and the middle wall of the enclosure did break down,

¹⁴¶ Ko ia hoki to tatou maunga rongo, nana i mea nga mea e rua kia kotahi, whakahoroa iho e ia te patu e arai ana i waenga;

¹⁵the enmity in his flesh, the law of the commands in ordinances having done away, that the two he might create in himself into one new man, making peace,

¹⁵Whakakahoretia ana hoki e ia ki tona kikokiko te mauahara, ara te ture i nga kupu ako, i nga tikanga; kia hanga ai i roto i a ia te tokorua hei tangata kotahi, hei tangata hou, kia mau ai te rongo i a ia;

¹⁶and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,

¹⁶Kia houhia ai ano hoki e ia te rongo a te tokorua ki te Atua i roto i te tinana kotahi, he meatanga na te ripeka, ma reira hoki e whakamate te mauahara;

¹⁷and having come, he did proclaim good news — peace to you — the far-off and the nigh,

¹⁷A haere mai ana ia, kauwhau ana i te maunga rongo ki a koutou i tawhiti, ki te hunga hoki e tata ana.

¹⁸because through him we have the access — we both — in one Spirit unto the Father.

¹⁸Nana hoki tatou, te tokorua nei, i whai tatanga atu ai i roto i te Wairua kotahi ki te Matua.

¹⁹Then, therefore, ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens of the saints, and of the household of God,

¹⁹Na reira ehara koutou i te tangata ke, i te manene ranei; engari he tangata whenua koutou tahi ko te hunga tapu, no te whare hoki o te Atua;

²⁰being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner-[stone],

²⁰He mea hanga ki runga ki te turanga o nga apotoro ratou ko nga poropiti, ko Ihu Karaiti ano hei tino kamaka mo te kokonga;

²¹in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,

²¹Kei roto nei i a ia tena whare, tena whare, he mea ata tatai marie, ka tupu hei whare tapu i roto i te Ariki;

²²in whom also ye are builded together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

²²Me koutou ano e hanga tahitia ana i roto i a ia, hei nohoanga mo te Atua, he mea na te Wairua.
