Bawlos Waxaa Loo Diray Inuu Muujiyo Qarsoodiga Ilaah

Sababtaas daraaddeed anigoo Bawlos ah waxaan Ciise Masiix maxbuus ugu ahay idinka oo ah dad aan Yuhuud ahayn aawadiin. Hubaal waxaad maqasheen wakiilnimada nimcada Ilaah oo la iigu kiin dhiibay, iyo sida qarsoodigii laygu ogeysiiyey wixii la ii muujiyey, sidii aan mar hore dhawr eray idiinku soo qoray. Markaad akhridaan waxaad ogaan karaysaan garashadayda xagga qarsoodiga Masiixa, kaas oo aan qarniyadii kale loogu ogeysiin bini aadmiga sida haatan Ruuxu ugu muujiyey rasuulladiisa iyo nebiyadiisa quduuska ah. Taas waxaa weeyaan in haatan dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn ay yihiin kuwo wax inala dhaxla, oo aan isku jidh nahay, oo ay inagula qayb qaataan ballankii Ciise Masiix xagga injiilka, kaas oo aniga layga dhigay midiidin sida ay tahay hadiyadda nimcada Ilaah oo lay siiyey sida ay tahay shaqaynta xooggiisu. Aniga oo quduusiinta oo dhan ugu liita waxaa nimcadan la ii siiyey inaan dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn ku wacdiyo hodantinimada Masiixa oo aan la baadhi karin, iyo inaan dadka oo dhan garansiiyo waxay tahay talogelidda qarsoodigii weligiis ku qarsoonaa Ilaaha ah kan wax walba abuuray. 10 Sababtuna waxaa weeyaan in haatan madaxda iyo kuwa amarka leh oo ku jira meelaha jannada, kiniisadda lagu ogeysiiyo xigmadda Ilaah oo badan oo kala cayncaynka ah, 11 sida uu yahay qasdiga weligiis ah oo isagu ku qasdiyey Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix, 12 kaas oo aynu ku leennahay dhiirranaan, oo aynu iskuhallayn ugu geli karno xagga rumaysadka aynu isaga rumaysan nahay. 13 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaan idinka baryayaa inaydnaan ku qalbi jabin dhibaatooyinkayga aan daraaddiin u maray, waayo, taasu waa idiin ammaan.

Ducadii Bawlos

14 Sababtaas daraaddeed waxaan ugu jilba joogsadaa Aabbaha hortiisa, 15 kaas oo magiciisa lagu magacaabay reerka oo dhan inta jannada ku jirta iyo inta dhulka joogtaba, 16 in sida hodantinimada ammaantiisu ay tahay uu idin siiyo itaal aad Ruuxiisa kaga xoogaysataan xagga gudihiinna, 17 iyo in Masiixu qalbiyadiinna degganaado xagga rumaysadka, 18 inaad jacayl xidid iyo aasaas ku yeelataan, iyo inaad u xoogaysataan si aad quduusiinta oo dhan ula garataan waxa ay yihiin ballaadhka iyo dhererka iyo korudheerida iyo hoosudheerida, 19 iyo inaad ogaataan jacaylka Masiixa oo aqoonta dhaafa, si ay idiinka buuxsanto Ilaah buuxnaantiisa oo dhammu.

20 Haddaba kan awooda inuu inoo sameeyo wax aad iyo aad uga sii badan waxa aynu weyddiisanno ama ku fikirno oo dhan sida u yahay xoogga inaga dhex shaqeeya, 21 isaga ammaanu ha ugu ahaato kiniisadda iyo Ciise Masiixba tan iyo qarniyada oo dhan iyo weligiis iyo weligiisba. Aamiin.

God’s Marvelous Plan for the Gentiles

For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner(A) of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles—

Surely you have heard about the administration of God’s grace that was given to me(B) for you, that is, the mystery(C) made known to me by revelation,(D) as I have already written briefly. In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight(E) into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.(F) This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs(G) together with Israel, members together of one body,(H) and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.(I)

I became a servant of this gospel(J) by the gift of God’s grace given me(K) through the working of his power.(L) Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people,(M) this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles(N) the boundless riches of Christ,(O) and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery,(P) which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. 10 His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God(Q) should be made known(R) to the rulers and authorities(S) in the heavenly realms,(T) 11 according to his eternal purpose(U) that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. 12 In him and through faith in him we may approach God(V) with freedom and confidence.(W) 13 I ask you, therefore, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.

A Prayer for the Ephesians

14 For this reason I kneel(X) before the Father, 15 from whom every family[a] in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches(Y) he may strengthen you with power(Z) through his Spirit in your inner being,(AA) 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts(AB) through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted(AC) and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people,(AD) to grasp how wide and long and high and deep(AE) is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge(AF)—that you may be filled(AG) to the measure of all the fullness of God.(AH)

20 Now to him who is able(AI) to do immeasurably more than all we ask(AJ) or imagine, according to his power(AK) that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.(AL)
