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

¹[Fiarahabana nataon'i Paoly, sy fiderany an'Andriamanitra noho ny soa avy amin'ny avotra nataon'i Kristy] Paoly, Apostolin'i Kristy Jesosy noho ny sitrapon'Andriamanitra, mamangy ny olona masina any Efesosy, izay mahatoky ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy: [ Na: mino an']

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

²ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin'Andriamanitra Raintsika sy Jesosy Kristy Tompo.

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;

³Isaorana anie Andriamanitra, Rain'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika, Izay nitahy antsika tao amin'i Kristy amin'ny fitahiam-panahy rehetra any an-danitra,

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;

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

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, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved,

⁶ho fiderana ny voninahitry ny fahasoavany, izay nanasoavany antsika maimaimpoana ao amin'ny Malala.

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

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

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

⁸izay nataony be ho antsika tamin'ny fahendrena sy ny fisainana rehetra,

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

⁹rehefa nampahafantariny ny zava-miafina ny amin'ny sitrapony isika, araka ny safidiny izay nokasain'ny tenany,

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;

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 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;

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]

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

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

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,

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 a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own 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.

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,

¹⁵[Fivavahana ho an'ny Kristiana tao Efesosy mba handrosoany hahalala ny hatsaran'ny famonjena, sy fampahatsiarovana azy ny halehiben'ny fitiavan'Andriamanitra] Ary noho izany izaho koa, rehefa nandre ny finoanareo an'i Jesosy Tompo izay hitan'ny olona masina rehetra, [ Na: (ny finoanareo an'i Jesosy Tompo sy ny fitiavanareo)]

¹⁶don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in 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, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the 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,

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,

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

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

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,

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,

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.

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,

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

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

²³izay tenany, dia ny fahafenoan'izay mameno izao zavatra rehetra izao amin'ny rehetra.
