¹ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܤܝܪܐ ܒܡܪܢ ܕܬܗܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܝܐܐ ܠܩܪܝܢܐ ܕܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܀

¹I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

²ܒܟܠܗ ܡܟܝܟܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܘܢܝܚܘܬܐ ܘܢܓܝܪܘܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܤܝܒܪܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܀

²with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love;

³ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܚܦܝܛܝܢ ܠܡܛܪ ܐܘܝܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܒܚܙܩܐ ܕܫܠܡܐ ܀

³being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

⁴ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܦܓܪܐ ܘܒܚܕܐ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܩܪܝܢܟܘܢ ܀

⁴There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling;

⁵ܚܕ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܚܕܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܚܕܐ ܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܐ ܀

⁵one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

⁶ܘܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܕܟܠ ܘܥܠ ܟܠ ܘܒܝܕ ܟܠ ܘܒܟܠܢ ܀

⁶one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.

⁷ܠܚܕ ܚܕ ܡܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܕܡܘܗܒܬܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

⁷But to each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

⁸ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܝܪ ܕܤܠܩ ܠܡܪܘܡܐ ܘܫܒܐ ܫܒܝܬܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܀

⁸Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.” Psalm 68:18

⁹ܕܤܠܩ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܕܐܦ ܢܚܬ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܠܬܚܬܝܬܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܀

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

¹⁰ܗܘ ܕܢܚܬ ܗܘܝܘ ܗܘ ܕܐܦ ܤܠܩ ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܢܫܠܡ ܟܠ ܀

¹⁰He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.

¹¹ܘܗܘ ܝܗܒ ܐܝܬ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܡܤܒܪܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܪܥܘܬܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܡܠܦܢܐ ܀

¹¹He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds or, pastors and teachers;

¹²ܠܓܡܪܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܕܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܐ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

¹²for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ;

¹³ܥܕܡܐ ܕܟܠܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܚܕ ܡܕܡ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܒܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܚܕ ܓܒܪܐ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܒܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܕܩܘܡܬܐ ܕܫܘܡܠܝܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

¹³until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;

¹⁴ܘܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܕܡܙܕܥܙܥܝܢ ܘܡܫܬܢܝܢ ܠܟܠ ܪܘܚ ܕܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܢܟܝܠܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܚܪܥܘܬܗܘܢ ܡܨܛܢܥܝܢ ܕܢܛܥܘܢ ܀

¹⁴that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;

¹⁵ܐܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܫܪܝܪܝܢ ܒܚܘܒܢ ܕܟܘܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܝܠܢ ܢܪܒܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܪܫܐ ܀

¹⁵but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, Christ;

¹⁶ܘܡܢܗ ܟܠܗ ܦܓܪܐ ܡܬܪܟܒ ܘܡܬܩܛܪ ܒܟܠ ܫܪܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܡܬܝܗܒܐ ܒܡܫܘܚܬܐ ܠܟܠ ܗܕܡ ܠܬܪܒܝܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܒܚܘܒܐ ܢܫܬܠܡ ܒܢܝܢܗ ܀

¹⁶from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.

¹⁷ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܘܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܒܡܪܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ ܕܥܡܡܐ ܕܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܒܤܪܝܩܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁷This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,

¹⁸ܘܚܫܘܟܝܢ ܒܡܕܥܝܗܘܢ ܘܢܘܟܪܝܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܝܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܝܬ ܒܗܘܢ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܘܡܛܠ ܥܘܝܪܘܬ ܠܒܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁸being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts;

¹⁹ܗܢܘܢ ܕܦܤܩܘ ܤܒܪܗܘܢ ܘܐܫܠܡܘ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܠܦܚܙܘܬܐ ܘܠܦܘܠܚܢܐ ܕܟܠܗ ܛܢܦܘܬܐ ܒܝܥܢܘܬܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁹who having become callous gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

²⁰ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܝܠܦܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܠܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

²⁰But you did not learn Christ that way;

²¹ܐܢ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܫܡܥܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܒܗ ܝܠܦܬܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܩܘܫܬܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܀

²¹if indeed you heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus:

²²ܐܠܐ ܕܬܢܝܚܘܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܗܘܦܟܝܟܘܢ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܗܘ ܥܬܝܩܐ ܕܡܬܚܒܠ ܒܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܛܘܥܝܝ ܀

²²that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit;

²³ܘܬܬܚܕܬܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܕܥܝܟܘܢ ܀

²³and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

²⁴ܘܬܠܒܫܘܢ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܐܠܗܐ ܐܬܒܪܝ ܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܘܒܚܤܝܘܬܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ ܀

²⁴and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.

²⁵ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܝܚܘ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܟܕܒܘܬܐ ܘܡܠܠܘ ܩܘܫܬܐ ܐܢܫ ܥܡ ܩܪܝܒܗ ܗܕܡܐ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܚܕ ܕܚܕ ܀

²⁵Therefore putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another.

²⁶ܪܓܙܘ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܛܘܢ ܘܫܡܫܐ ܥܠ ܪܘܓܙܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܢܥܪܒ ܀

²⁶“Be angry, and don’t sin.” Psalm 4:4 Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,

²⁷ܘܠܐ ܬܬܠܘܢ ܐܬܪܐ ܠܐܟܠ ܩܪܨܐ ܀

²⁷neither give place to the devil.

²⁸ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܓܢܒ ܗܘܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܢܓܢܘܒ ܐܠܐ ܢܠܐܐ ܒܐܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܢܦܠܘܚ ܛܒܬܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܠܡܬܠ ܠܡܢ ܕܤܢܝܩ ܀

²⁸Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.

²⁹ܟܠ ܡܠܐ ܤܢܝܐ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܦܘܩ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܫܦܝܪܐ ܘܚܫܚܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܐ ܕܬܬܠ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܝܢ ܀

²⁹Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.

³⁰ܘܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܥܝܩܝܢ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܩܕܝܫܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܚܬܡܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܀

³⁰Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

³¹ܟܠܗ ܡܪܝܪܘܬܐ ܘܚܡܬܐ ܘܪܘܓܙܐ ܘܪܘܒܐ ܘܓܘܕܦܐ ܢܫܬܩܠܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܥܡ ܟܠܗ ܒܝܫܘܬܐ ܀

³¹Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice.

³²ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܤܝܡܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܘܬ ܚܕ ܘܡܪܚܡܢܝܢ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܫܒܩܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܫܒܩ ܠܢ ܀

³²And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
