Ephesians 3
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
1Pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, ko au Paula, ko e pōpula ʻa Sisu Kalaisi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu Senitaile,
2If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
2(He kuo mou fanongo ki he lakanga ʻi he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo foaki kiate au koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu:
3How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
3Koeʻuhi naʻe fakaʻilo ʻe ia ʻi he fakahā kiate au ʻae meʻa fakalilolilo; ʻo hangē ko ia ne u tohi siʻi ki ai ʻi muʻa,
4Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
4ʻAia, ʻoka mou ka lau, te mou ʻilo ʻeku poto ʻi he meʻa fakalilolilo ʻa Kalaisi)
5Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
5ʻAia naʻe ʻikai fakaʻilo ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ʻi muʻa ki he ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata, ʻo hangē ko hono fakahā eni ʻe he Laumālie ki heʻene kau ʻaposetolo māʻoniʻoni mo e kau palōfita;
6That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
6Koeʻuhi ke kaunga hoko ʻae kakai Senitaile, pea ʻi he sino pe taha, pea kau ʻi heʻene talaʻofa ʻia Kalaisi ʻi he ongoongolelei:
7Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.
7ʻAia naʻe fakanofo au ko e faifekau ʻo ia, ʻo fakatatau ki he foaki ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, naʻe foaki kiate au ʻi he ngāue mālohi ʻo ʻene māfimafi.
8Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
8Ko e siʻi hifo taha pe au ʻi he kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ʻoku siʻi, ka kuo foaki ʻae ʻofa ni kiate au, koeʻuhi ke u malangaʻaki ki he ngaahi Senitaile ʻae koloa taʻefaʻahakule ʻa Kalaisi;
9And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
9Pea ke fakaʻilo ki he kakai kotoa pē, ʻae feohi ʻoe meʻa fakalilolilo, ʻaia naʻe lilo ʻi he ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatupu ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ia Sisu Kalaisi, talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani:
10To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
10Koeʻuhi ke fakahā atu eni ʻe he siasi, ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kehekehe, ʻae poto ʻoe ʻOtua ki he ngaahi pule mo e ngaahi mālohi ʻi he ngaahi potu fakalangi,
11According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
11ʻO fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni ʻi muʻa ʻi muʻa, ʻaia naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻia Kalaisi Sisu ko hotau ʻEiki:
12In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
12ʻAia ʻoku ʻapaʻapangofua ai ʻetau hū mālohi atu ʻi he tui kiate ia.
13Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
13Ko ia ʻoku ou holi ke ʻoua naʻa mou loto foʻi ʻi heʻeku ngaahi mamahi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻaia ko homou fiefiaʻanga.
14For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
14Ko e meʻa ko ia ʻoku ou peluki ai hoku tui ki he Tamai ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi,
15Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
15ʻAia ʻoku ui mei ai ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻi he langi mo māmani,
16That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
16Koeʻuhi ke ne foaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻaupito ʻo ʻene lelei, ke fakamālohi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae mālohi ʻi hono Laumālie ʻi he tangata ʻi loto;
17That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
17Koeʻuhi ke nofoʻia homou loto ʻe Kalaisi ʻi he tui; kae aka ʻakimoutolu mo tuʻumaʻu ʻi he ʻofa,
18May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
18Ke mou mafai ke ʻilo fakataha mo e kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē, hono māukupu, mo hono lōloa, mo hono loloto, mo hono māʻolunga;
19And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
19Pea ke ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻa Kalaisi, ʻaia ʻoku lahi hake ʻi he faʻa ʻilo, pea ke fakafonu ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae fonu kotoa pē ʻoe ʻOtua.
20Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
20Pea ko eni, ke ʻiate ia ʻaia ʻoku mafai ke fai lahi hake ʻaupito ʻaupito ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē te tau kolea pe mahalo ki ai, ʻo fakatatau ki he mālohi ʻaia ʻoku ngāue ʻiate kitautolu,
21Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
21Ke ʻiate ia ʻae ongoongolelei ʻi he siasi ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, ʻi he ngaahi kuonga kotoa pē, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni.
