| 1 Because of this, I, Paul, a prisoner of Christ (Jesus) for you Gentiles-- | 1 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܤܝܪܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܠ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܀ |
| 2 if, as I suppose, you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for your benefit, | 2 ܐܢ ܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܡܕܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܒܟܘܢ ܀ |
| 3 (namely, that) the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly earlier. | 3 ܕܒܓܠܝܢܐ ܐܬܝܕܥ ܠܝ ܐܪܙܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܟܬܒܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܙܥܘܪܝܬܐ ܀ |
| 4 When you read this you can understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, | 4 ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܡܫܟܚܝܬܘܢ ܟܕ ܩܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܤܬܟܠܘ ܝܕܥܬܝ ܕܒܐܪܙܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀ |
| 5 which was not made known to human beings in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit, | 5 ܗܘ ܕܒܕܪܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܬܝܕܥ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܗܫܐ ܐܬܓܠܝ ܠܫܠܝܚܘܗܝ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܠܢܒܝܘܗܝ ܒܪܘܚ ܀ |
| 6 that the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and copartners in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel. | 6 ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܒܢܝ ܝܪܬܘܬܗ ܘܫܘܬܦܐ ܕܦܓܪܗ ܘܕܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒ ܒܗ ܒܝܕ ܐܘܢܓܠܝܘܢ ܀ |
| 7 Of this I became a minister by the gift of God's grace that was granted me in accord with the exercise of his power. | 7 ܗܘ ܕܐܢܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܫܡܫܢܗ ܐܝܟ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܡܢ ܡܥܒܕܢܘܬܐ ܕܚܝܠܗ ܀ |
| 8 To me, the very least of all the holy ones, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the inscrutable riches of Christ, | 8 ܠܝ ܕܙܥܘܪܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܐܤܒܪ ܒܥܡܡܐ ܥܘܬܪܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܥܩܒ ܀ |
| 9 and to bring to light [for all] what is the plan of the mystery hidden from ages past in God who created all things, | 9 ܘܐܢܗܪ ܠܟܠܢܫ ܐܝܕܐ ܗܝ ܡܕܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܐܪܙܐ ܗܘ ܕܟܤܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܕܟܠ ܒܪܐ ܀ |
| 10 so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the principalities and authorities in the heavens. | 10 ܕܒܝܕ ܥܕܬܐ ܬܬܝܕܥ ܚܟܡܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܠܝܬ ܦܘܪܫܢܐ ܠܐܪܟܘܤ ܘܠܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܀ |
| 11 This was according to the eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, | 11 ܗܝ ܕܥܬܕ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܘܥܒܕܗ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܪܢ ܀ |
| 12 in whom we have boldness of speech and confidence of access through faith in him. | 12 ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܦܪܗܤܝܐ ܘܩܪܝܒܘܬܐ ܒܬܘܟܠܢܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܗ ܀ |
| 13 So I ask you not to lose heart over my afflictions for you; this is your glory. | 13 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܫܐܠܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܬܡܐܢ ܠܝ ܒܐܘܠܨܢܝ ܕܥܠ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܕܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܟܘܢ ܀ |
| 14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, | 14 ܘܟܐܦܢܐ ܒܘܪܟܝ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀ |
| 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, | 15 ܗܘ ܕܡܢܗ ܡܫܬܡܗܐ ܟܠ ܐܒܗܘܬܐ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܒܐܪܥܐ ܀ |
| 16 that he may grant you in accord with the riches of his glory to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner self, | 16 ܕܢܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܬܫܒܘܚܬܗ ܕܒܚܝܠܐ ܬܫܬܪܪܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܗ ܕܒܒܪܢܫܟܘܢ ܕܠܓܘ ܀ |
| 17 and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, rooted and grounded in love, | 17 ܢܥܡܪ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܒܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܟܕ ܢܗܘܐ ܫܪܝܪ ܥܩܪܟܘܢ ܘܫܬܐܤܬܟܘܢ ܀ |
| 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the holy ones what is the breadth and length and height and depth, | 18 ܕܬܫܟܚܘܢ ܠܡܕܪܟܘ ܥܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܡܢܘ ܪܘܡܐ ܘܥܘܡܩܐ ܘܐܘܪܟܐ ܘܦܬܝܐ ܀ |
| 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. | 19 ܘܬܕܥܘܢ ܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܚܘܒܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܬܬܡܠܘܢ ܒܟܠܗ ܡܘܠܝܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀ |
| 20 Now to him who is able to accomplish far more than all we ask or imagine, by the power at work within us, | 20 ܠܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܨܐ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܠܡܥܒܕ ܠܢ ܘܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܡܐ ܕܫܐܠܝܢܢ ܘܪܢܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܚܝܠܗ ܕܡܤܬܥܪ ܒܢ ܀ |
| 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. | 21 ܠܗ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܒܥܕܬܗ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܪܐ ܕܥܠܡܝ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܀ |
