¹Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:

¹بولس رسول يسوع المسيح بمشيئة الله الى القديسين الذين في افسس والمؤمنون في المسيح يسوع

²Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

²نعمة لكم وسلام من الله ابينا والرب يسوع المسيح

³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ;

³مبارك الله ابو ربنا يسوع المسيح الذي باركنا بكل بركة روحية في السماويات في المسيح

⁴even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love;

⁴كما اختارنا فيه قبل تأسيس العالم لنكون قديسين وبلا لوم قدامه في المحبة

⁵having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,

⁵اذ سبق فعيّننا للتبني بيسوع المسيح لنفسه حسب مسرة مشيئته

⁶to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved,

⁶لمدح مجد نعمته التي انعم بها علينا في المحبوب

⁷in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,

⁷الذي فيه لنا الفداء بدمه غفران الخطايا حسب غنى نعمته

⁸which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,

⁸التي اجزلها لنا بكل حكمة وفطنة

⁹making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him

⁹اذ عرّفنا بسر مشيئته حسب مسرته التي قصدها في نفسه

¹⁰to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him;

¹⁰لتدبير ملء الازمنة ليجمع كل شيء في المسيح ما في السموات وما على الارض في ذاك

¹¹in whom also we were assigned an inheritance, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his will;

¹¹الذي فيه ايضا نلنا نصيبا معيّنين سابقا حسب قصد الذي يعمل كل شيء حسب رأي مشيئته

¹²to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ:

¹²لنكون لمدح مجده نحن الذين قد سبق رجاؤنا في المسيح.

¹³in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

¹³الذي فيه ايضا انتم اذ سمعتم كلمة الحق انجيل خلاصكم الذي فيه ايضا اذ آمنتم ختمتم بروح الموعد القدوس

¹⁴who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.

¹⁴الذي هو عربون ميراثنا لفداء المقتنى لمدح مجده

¹⁵For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which you have toward all the saints,

¹⁵لذلك انا ايضا اذ قد سمعت بايمانكم بالرب يسوع ومحبتكم نحو جميع القديسين

¹⁶don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,

¹⁶لا ازال شاكرا لاجلكم ذاكرا اياكم في صلواتي

¹⁷that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;

¹⁷كي يعطيكم اله ربنا يسوع المسيح ابو المجد روح الحكمة والاعلان في معرفته

¹⁸having the eyes of your hearts TR reads “understanding” instead of “hearts” enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

¹⁸مستنيرة عيون اذهانكم لتعلموا ما هو رجاء دعوته وما هو غنى مجد ميراثه في القديسين

¹⁹and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might

¹⁹وما هي عظمة قدرته الفائقة نحونا نحن المؤمنين حسب عمل شدة قوته

²⁰which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,

²⁰الذي عمله في المسيح اذ اقامه من الاموات واجلسه عن يمينه في السماويات

²¹far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.

²¹فوق كل رياسة وسلطان وقوة وسيادة وكل اسم يسمى ليس في هذا الدهر فقط بل في المستقبل ايضا

²²He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,

²²واخضع كل شيء تحت قدميه واياه جعل راسا فوق كل شيء للكنيسة

²³which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

²³التي هي جسده ملء الذي يملأ الكل في الكل
