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 has chosen us in him before [the] world's foundation, that we should be holy and blameless 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 marked us out beforehand for adoption through 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 has taken us into favour 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 offences, according to the riches of his grace;

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

¹⁰for [the] administration of the fulness of times; to head up all things in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth; 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 we have also obtained an inheritance, being marked out beforehand according to the purpose of him who works all things according to 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 have pre-trusted in the Christ:

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

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.

¹⁴who is [the] earnest of our inheritance to the redemption of the acquired possession to [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, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which [is] in you, and the love which [ye have] towards all the saints,

¹⁶do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention [of you] at 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, would give you [the] spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full 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,

¹⁸being enlightened in the eyes of your heart, so that ye should 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 the surpassing greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to the working of the might of his strength,

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

²⁰[in] which he wrought in the Christ [in] raising him from among [the] dead, and he set him down at his right hand in the heavenlies,

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,

²¹above every principality, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in that 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 has put all things under his feet, and gave him [to be] head over all things to the assembly,

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.
