¹For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles,

¹[Ny nanendrena an'i Paoly ho Apostolin'ny jentilisa, sy ny vavaka aman-tsaotra nataony ho an'ny fiangonana tao Efesosy] Ary noho izany, izaho Paoly, mpifatotra an'i Kristy Jesosy, noho ny aminareo jentilisa, -

²if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;

²raha mba renareo ny fitondrana ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra izay nomena ahy ho anareo,

³how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,

³fa fanambarana no nampahafantarana ahy ny zava-niafina, araka ny voasoratro tamin'ny teny fohifohy teo.

⁴by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ;

⁴Ary araka izany, raha mamaky ianareo, dia ho hainareo fantarina ny fahafantarako ny zava-niafina ny amin'i Kristy,

⁵which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;

⁵izay tsy mbola nampahafantarina ny zanak'olombelona tamin'ny taranaka lasa tahaka ny fanambaran'ny Fanahy ankehitriny amin'ny Apostoly masina sy ny mpaminany,

⁶that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

⁶dia ny ahatongavan'ny jentilisa ho mpiray lova sy ho tena iray ary ho mpiombona ny teny fikasana ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy noho ny filazantsara,

⁷of which I was made a servant, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.

⁷izay nanaovana ahy ho mpanompo araka ny fanomezan'ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra, izay nomena ahy araka ny fiàsan'ny heriny.

⁸To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

⁸Eny, izaho, izay kely noho ny kely indrindra amin'ny olona masina rehetra, no nomena izao fahasoavana izao, dia ny hitory amin'ny jentilisa ny haren'i Kristy tsy hita lany,

⁹and to make all men see what is the administration TR reads “fellowship” instead of “administration” of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ;

⁹ary ny hampahazava ny olona rehetra mba hahalalany izay fitondrana ny zava-miafina, dia Ilay voafina hatramin'ny nanaovana izao tontolo izao tao amin'Andriamanitra, Izay nanao ny zavatra rehetra;

¹⁰to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,

¹⁰mba hampahafantarina ireo fanapahana sy fahefana any an-danitra amin'izao ankehitriny izao ny mahamaro samy hafa ny fahendren'Andriamanitra amin'ny fitondrany ny fiangonana, [ Gr. eklesia]

¹¹according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;

¹¹araka ny fikasana hatrizay hatrizay izay nataony tao amin'i Kristy Jesosy Tompontsika,

¹²in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.

¹²Izay ananantsika fahasahiana sy fanatonana amin'ny fahatokiana noho ny finoana Azy.

¹³Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.

¹³Koa izany no angatahako aminareo mba tsy ho ketraka amin'ny fahoriako ho anareo, fa voninahitrareo izany.

¹⁴For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

¹⁴Ary noho izany no andohalehako amin'ny Ray

¹⁵from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,

¹⁵Izay ahazoan'ny fianakaviana rehetra any an-danitra sy etỳ an-tany anarana,

¹⁶that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;

¹⁶mba homeny anareo, araka ny haren'ny voninahiny, ny mba hohatanjahina fatratra amin'ny Fanahiny ny toe-panahinareo;

¹⁷that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

¹⁷mba hitoeran'i Kristy ao am-ponareo amin'ny finoana, ka hamaka sy hiorina mafy amin'ny fitiavana ianareo,

¹⁸may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

¹⁸mba hahaizanareo mbamin'ny olona masina rehetra ny hahafantatra tsara izay sakany sy lavany ary hahavony sy halavany.

¹⁹and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

¹⁹ary hahalala ny fitiavan'i Kristy, izay mihoatra noho ny fahalalana, mba hamenoana anareo ho amin'ny fahafenoan'Andriamanitra rehetra.

²⁰Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,

²⁰Ary ho an'izay mahay manao mihoatra noho ny zavatra rehetra, eny, mihoatra lavitra noho izay rehetra angatahintsika na heverintsika aza, araka ny hery izay miasa ato amintsika,ho Azy anie ny voninahitra ao amin'ny fiangonana sy ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy hatramin'ny taranaka farany indrindra mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. [ Gr. eklesia]

²¹to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

²¹ho Azy anie ny voninahitra ao amin'ny fiangonana sy ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy hatramin'ny taranaka farany indrindra mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. [ Gr. eklesia]
