Capitolo 3
1
Toga sam radi ja, Pavle, sužanj Isusa Hrista za vas neznabošce,
2
budući da čuste službu blagodati Božije koja je meni dana među vama,
3
da se meni po otkrivenju kaza tajna; kao što gore napisah ukratko,
4
odakle možete čitajući poznati moj razum u tajni Hristovoj,
5
koja se u drugim naraštajima ne kaza sinovima čovečijim, kako se sad otkri svetim Njegovim apostolima i prorocima Duhom Svetim;
6
da neznabošci kroz jevanđelje postanu sunaslednici i sutelesnici i zajedničari u obećanju Njegovom u Hristu Isusu,
7
kome postadoh sluga po daru blagodati Božje, koja mi je dana po činjenju sile njegove.
8
Meni najmanjem od svih svetih dade se ova blagodat da objavim među neznabošcima neiskazano bogatstvo Hristovo,
9
i da otkrijem svima šta je služba tajne od postanja sveta sakrivene u Bogu, koji je sazdao sve kroz Isusa Hrista;
10
da se kroz crkvu sad obznani poglavarstvima i vlastima na nebu mnogorazlična premudrost Božija,
11
po naredbi vekova, koju učini u Hristu Isusu, Gospodu našem,
12
u kome imamo slobodu i pristup u nadi verom Njegovom.
13
Zato vas molim da se ne oslabite zbog nevolja mojih za vas, koje su slava vaša.
14
Toga radi priklanjam kolena svoja pred Ocem Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista,
15
po kome se sva čeljad i na nebesima i na zemlji zovu,
16
da vam da silu po bogatstvu slave svoje, da se utvrdite Duhom Njegovim za unutrašnjeg čoveka,
17
da se Hristos useli verom u srca vaša, da budete u ljubavi ukorenjeni i utemeljeni;
18
da biste mogli razumeti sa svima svetima šta je širina i dužina i dubina i visina,
19
i poznati pretežniju od razuma ljubav Hristovu, da se ispunite svakom puninom Božijom.
20
A Onome koji može još izobilnije sve činiti šta ištemo ili mislimo, po sili koja čini u nama,
21
Onome slava u crkvi po Hristu Isusu u sve naraštaje va vek veka. Amin.
Ephesians
Capitolo 3
1
For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
2
If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
3
How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
4
Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
5
Which 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;
6
That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
7
Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.
8
Unto 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;
9
And 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:
10
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
11
According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12
In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
13
Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
16
That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
17
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
19
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
20
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
21
Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
