¹Aj vás, ktorí ste boli mŕtvi vo svojich previneniach a vo svojich hriechoch,

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

²v ktorých ste kedysi chodili podľa veku tohoto sveta, podľa kniežaťa mocností povetria, ducha to, ktorý teraz pôsobí v synoch neposlušnosti,

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,

³medzi ktorými sme kedysi aj my všetci obcovali v žiadostiach svojho tela robiac to, čo sa zachcievalo telu a mysliam, a boli sme prírodou deťmi hnevu jako aj ostatní.

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,

⁴Ale Bôh súc bohatý v milosrdenstve pre mnohú svoju lásku, ktorou nás zamiloval,

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

⁵aj keď sme boli mŕtvi v previneniach, spolu nás oživil s Kristom - milosťou ste spasení -

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

⁶a spolu vzkriesil a spolu posadil v ponebeských oblastiach v Kristu Ježišovi,

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

⁷aby v nasledujúcich vekoch ukázal nesmierne bohatstvo svojej milosti dobrotou na nás v Kristu Ježišovi.

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

⁸Lebo ste milosťou spasení skrze vieru, a to nie zo seba, je to dar Boží,

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

⁹nie zo skutkov, aby sa niekto nechválil.

⁹not of works, that no one may boast;

¹⁰Lebo sme jeho dielom, stvorení v Kristu Ježišovi nato, aby sme konali dobré skutky, ktoré Bôh vopred prihotovil, aby sme v nich chodili.

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

¹¹Preto pamätajte, že kedysi vy, pohania v tele, ktorých tak zvaná obriezka na tele, učinená rukou, zovie neobriezkou,

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,

¹²že ste v tom čase boli bez Krista, odcudzení občianstvu Izraelovmu a cudzí smluvám zasľúbenia, nemajúci nádeje a bez Boha na svete.

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;

¹³Ale teraz v Kristu Ježišu vy, ktorí ste boli kedysi ďalekí stali ste sa blízkymi v krvi Kristovej.

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

¹⁴Lebo on je náš pokoj, ktorý učinil oboje jedno a zboril aj priehradný múr

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

¹⁵zrušiac vo svojom tele nepriateľstvo, zákon prikázaní, záležajúci v rôznych nariadeniach, aby tých dvoje, Židov a pohanov, stvoril v sebe v jedného nového človeka činiac pokoj

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,

¹⁶a aby smieril obojich v jednom tele Bohu skrze kríž zabijúc na ňom nepriateľstvo

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

¹⁷a prišiel a zvestoval pokoj vám ďalekým a pokoj blízkym,

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

¹⁸lebo skrze neho máme prístup oboji v jednom Duchu k Otcovi.

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

¹⁹Tak tedy už nie ste cudzincami a bezprávnymi pohostínmi, ale ste spoluobčania svätých a domáci Boží,

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

²⁰vybudovaní na základe apoštolov a prorokov, kde je uholným kameňom sám Ježiš Kristus,

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

²¹v ktorom každé stavänie prístojne dovedna pojené rastie v svätý chrám v Pánovi,

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

²²v ktorom sa aj vy spolu budujete v príbytok Boží v Duchu.

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