3:1
Τούτου χάριν ἐγὼ Παῦλος ὁ δέσμιος τοῦ Χριστοῦ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν
Hujus rei gratia, ego Paulus vinctus Christi Jesu, pro vobis gentibus,
ወእንበይነዝ አነ ጳውሎስ ሙቁሑ ለክርስቶስ እንበይነ ዚኣክሙ አሕዛብ።
For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles,
3:2
εἴγε ἠκούσατε τὴν οἰκονομίαν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι εἰς ὑμᾶς,
si tamen audistis dispensationem gratiae Dei, quae data est mihi in vobis :
ሶበሰ ሰማዕክሙ ሀብተ ጸጋሁ ለእግዚአብሔር ዘወሀበኒ በእንቲኣክሙ።
if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you,
3:3
ὅτι κατὰ ἀποκάλυψιν ἐγνωρίσθη μοι τὸ μυστήριον, καθὼς προέγραψα ἐν ὀλίγῳ,
quoniam secundum revelationem notum mihi factum est sacramentum, sicut supra scripsi in brevi,
እስመ ከሠተ ሊተ ምክሮ ወአርአየኒ በከመ ጸሐፍኩ ለክሙ ኅዳጠ።
how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,
3:4
πρὸς ὃ δύνασθε ἀναγινώσκοντες νοῆσαι τὴν σύνεσίν μου ἐν τῷ μυστηρίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
prout potestis legentes intelligere prudentiam meam in mysterio Christi :
በዘትክሉ አእምሮ ሶበ ታነብቡ ወተአምሩ ኅሊናየ በምክሩ ለክርስቶስ።
by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ,
3:5
ὃ ἑτέραις γενεαῖς οὐκ ἐγνωρίσθη τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὡς νῦν ἀπεκαλύφθη τοῖς ἁγίοις ἀποστόλοις αὐτοῦ καὶ προφήταις ἐν πνεύματι,
quod aliis generationibus non est agnitum filiis hominum, sicuti nunc revelatum est sanctis apostolis ejus et prophetis in Spiritu,
ዘኢየአምሮ ካልእ ትውልድ ደቂቀ ዕጓለ እመሕያው ከመ ይእዜ ተከሥተ ለቅዱሳን ሐዋርያቲሁ ወነቢያቲሁ በመንፈስ ቅዱስ።
which 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,
3:6
εἶναι τὰ ἔθνη συνκληρονόμα καὶ σύνσωμα καὶ συνμέτοχα τῆς ἐπαγγελίας ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου,
gentes esse cohaeredes, et concorporales, et comparticipes promissionis ejus in Christo Jesu per Evangelium :
ከመ ይረስዮሙ ለአሕዛብ መዋርስቲሁ ወሥጋሁ ወይኅበሩ ተስፋ በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ በትምህርተ ወንጌል።
that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,
3:7
οὗ ἐγενήθην διάκονος κατὰ τὴν δωρεὰν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι κατὰ τὴν ἐνέργειαν τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ.
cujus factus sum minister secundum donum gratiae Dei, quae data est mihi secundum operationem virtutis ejus.
ዘሎቱ ተሠየምኩ አነ ላእከ ወዐዋዴ በከመ ሀብተ ጸጋሁ ዘወሀበኒ ሊተ በረድኤተ ኀይሉ።
of 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.
3:8
ἐμοὶ τῷ ἐλαχιστοτέρῳ πάντων ἁγίων ἐδόθη ἡ χάρις αὕτη, τοῖς ἔθνεσιν εὐαγγελίσασθαι τὸ ἀνεξιχνίαστον πλοῦτος τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
Mihi omnium sanctorum minimo data est gratia haec, in gentibus evangelizare investigabiles divitias Christi,
ሊተ ዘአነ እቴሐት እምኵሎሙ ቅዱሳን ወሀበኒ ዘንተ ጸጋሁ ከመ እምሀሮሙ ለአሕዛብ ብዕለ ክርስቶስ ዘአልቦ አሠር ወአብርሀ ለኵሉ።
To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
3:9
καὶ φωτίσαι τίς ἡ οἰκονομία τοῦ μυστηρίου τοῦ ἀποκεκρυμμένου ἀπὸ τῶν αἰώνων ἐν τῷ θεῷ τῷ τὰ πάντα κτίσαντι,
et illuminare omnes, quae sit dispensatio sacramenti absconditi a saeculis in Deo, qui omnia creavit :
ምንት ውእቱ ሥርዐቱ ለዝንቱ ምክር ዘኅቡእ እምዓለም በኀበ እግዚአብሔር ዘኵሎ ፈጠረ።
and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ,
3:10
ἵνα γνωρισθῇ νῦν ταῖς ἀρχαῖς καὶ ταῖς ἐξουσίαις ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις διὰ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἡ πολυποίκιλος σοφία τοῦ θεοῦ,
ut innotescat principatibus et potestatibus in caelestibus per Ecclesiam, multiformis sapientia Dei,
ከመ ይእዜ ይትዐወቅ ለቀደምት ወለመኳንንት እለ በሰማያት በእንተ ቤተ ክርስቲያኑ ጥበቢሁ ለእግዚአብሔር እንተ ብዙኅ ኅበሪሃ።
to 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,
3:11
κατὰ πρόθεσιν τῶν αἰώνων ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ κυρίῳ ἡμῶν,
secundum praefinitionem saeculorum, quam fecit in Christo Jesu Domino nostro :
ዘሠርዓ እምቅድመ ዓለም ወፈጸማ በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ እግዚእነ።
according to the eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.
3:12
ἐν ᾧ ἔχομεν τὴν παρρησίαν καὶ προσαγωγὴν ἐν πεποιθήσει διὰ τῆς πίστεως αὐτοῦ.
in quo habemus fiduciam, et accessum in confidentia per fidem ejus.
ዘቦቱ ረከብነ ጸጋ ወሞገሰ ወመርሐነ ውስተ ተስፋ ዘሃይማኖት።
In him we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.
3:13
Διὸ αἰτοῦμαι μὴ ἐνκακεῖν ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσίν μου ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, ἥτις ἐστὶν δόξα ὑμῶν.
Propter quod peto ne deficiatis in tribulationibus meis pro vobis : quae est gloria vestra.
ወበእንተ ዝንቱ አስተበቍዖ ለእግዚአብሔር ከመ ኢይትቈጥዓ ለሕማምየ እንተ ረከበተኒ በእንቲኣክሙ ለክብርክሙ።
Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.
3:14
τούτου χάριν κάμπτω τὰ γόνατά μου πρὸς τὸν πατέρα,
Hujus rei gratia flecto genua mea ad Patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,
ወእንበይነ ዝንቱ እሰግድ ለአብ በብረከ ልብየ።
For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
3:15
ἐξ οὗ πᾶσα πατριὰ ἐν οὐρανοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς ὀνομάζεται,
ex quo omnis paternitas in caelis et in terra nominatur,
ዘኪያሁ ይጼውዑ ኵሉ በሐውርት ዘበሰማያት ወዘበምድር።
from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
3:16
ἵνα δῷ ὑμῖν κατὰ τὸ πλοῦτος τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ δυνάμει κραταιωθῆναι διὰ τοῦ πνεύματος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον,
ut det vobis secundum divitias gloriae suae, virtute corroborari per Spiritum ejus in interiorem hominem,
ከመ የሀብክሙ በከመ ብዕለ ስብሐቲሁ ወያጽንዕክሙ በኀይለ መንፈስ ቅዱስ።
that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner person,
3:17
κατοικῆσαι τὸν Χριστὸν διὰ τῆς πίστεως ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν,
Christum habitare per fidem in cordibus vestris : in caritate radicati, et fundati,
እስመ እንተ ውስጡ ለሰብእ የኀድር ክርስቶስ በሃይማኖት ውስተ ልብክሙ በተፋቅሮ እንዘ ይከውን ጽኑዐ ሥርውክሙሂ ወመሠረትክሙሂ።
that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
3:18
ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἐρριζωμένοι καὶ τεθεμελιωμένοι, ἵνα ἐξισχύσητε καταλαβέσθαι σὺν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἁγίοις τί τὸ πλάτος καὶ μῆκος καὶ βάθος καὶ ὕψος,
ut possitis comprehendere cum omnibus sanctis, quae sit latitudo, et longitudo, et sublimitas, et profundum :
ከመ ትክሀሉ ረኪበ ምስለ ኵሎሙ ቅዱሳን ምንትኑ ራሕቡ ወኑኁ ወላዕሉ ወዕመቁ።
may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth,
3:19
γνῶναί τε τὴν ὑπερβάλλουσαν τῆς γνώσεως ἀγάπην τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα πληρωθῆτε εἰς πᾶν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ θεοῦ.
scire etiam supereminentem scientiae caritatem Christi, ut impleamini in omnem plenitudinem Dei.
ለጠይቆ ብዝኀ አእምሮ ፍቅሩ ለክርስቶስ ከመ ትሰለጡ በኵሉ ፍጻሜ ለእግዚአብሔር።
and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
3:20
Τῷ δὲ δυναμένῳ ὑπὲρ πάντα ποιῆσαι ὑπερεκπερισσοῦ ὧν αἰτούμεθα ἢ νοοῦμεν κατὰ τὴν δύναμιν τὴν ἐνεργουμένην ἐν ἡμῖν,
Ei autem, qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter quam petimus aut intelligimus, secundum virtutem, quae operatur in nobis :
ዘይክል አጽንዖተክሙ ትግበሩ ኵሎ ወታፈድፍዱ ዘንስእል ወዘንሔሊ በከመ ይረድአነ ኀይሉ።
Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
3:21
αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ καὶ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ εἰς πάσας τὰς γενεὰς τοῦ αἰῶνος τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.
ipsi gloria in Ecclesia, et in Christo Jesu, in omnes generationes saeculi saeculorum. Amen.
ዘሎቱ ስብሐት በቤተ ክርስቲያን በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ በኵሉ ትውልድ ወለዓለመ ዓለም አሜን።
to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
