Ephesians 5
1 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
त्यसकारण परमेश्वरका प्रिय छोरा-छोरीहरू झैँ उहाँको अनुकरण गर्ने होओ ।
2 Walk in love, even as Messiah also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
र ख्रीष्टले हामीलाई प्रेम गर्नुभएर आफैँलाई हाम्रो निम्ति दिनुभए झैँ तिमीहरू प्रेममा हिँड । परमेश्वरको निम्ति सुगन्धित सुवास्ना हुनको निम्ति उहाँ एक भेटी र बलिदान हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
3 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned amongst you, as becomes holy ones;
जस्तो विश्वासीहरूका लागि उपयुक्त हुन्छ, तिमीहरूको बिचमा कामुक अनैतिकता वा कुनै अशुद्धता वा कामवासनाको लालसाको बारेमा चर्चा नहोस् ।
4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.
नकि अश्लिलता, मूर्ख बोली वा अपमानजनक ठट्यौलीहरू होस् जुनचाहिँ अनुचित छन् । बरु धन्यवाद दिने काम होस् ।
5 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Messiah and God.
तिमीहरूले यो निश्चय गर, कि कुनै कामुक रूपमा अनैतिक, अशुद्ध, वा लालसित व्यक्तिले ख्रीष्ट र परमेश्वरको राज्यमा कुनै उत्तराधिकार पाउँदैन, किनकि त्यो मूर्तिपूजक हो ।
6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
तिमीहरूलाई कसैले पनि फोस्रा कुराहरूले धोखा नदिओस् । यी कुराहरूको कारण अनाज्ञाकारिताका पुत्रहरूमा परमेश्वरको क्रोध आउनेछ ।
7 Therefore don’t be partakers with them.
यसैले गर्दा तिनीहरूसँग सहभागी नहोओ ।
8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
किनकि तिमीहरू एकचोटी अन्धकार थियौ, तर अब तिमीहरू परमप्रभुमा ज्योति भएका छौ । यसैले ज्योतिका सन्तान जस्तै गरी हिँड ।
9 for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,
किनकि ज्योतिको फल सबै भलाइ, धार्मिकता र सत्यतामा हुन्छ ।
10 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
परमप्रभुलाई खुशी तुल्याउने कुराहरू पत्ता लगाऊ ।
11 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
अन्धकारका फलहिन कार्यहरूमा सहभागी नहोओ । बरु, तिनीहरूलाई प्रकट गर ।
12 For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
किनकि तिनीहरूद्वारा गोप्यमा गरिएका कार्यहरू वर्णन गर्न पनि लाजमर्दो छ ।
13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.
सबै थोक जब ज्योतिमा आउँछन्, तब ती प्रकट हुन्छन्,
14 Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you.”
किनकि प्रकट भएका सबै कुरा ज्योतिमा प्रकाशमान हुन्छन् । त्यसकारण यस्तो भनिएको छ कि, “सुताहा हो जाग, र मरेकाहरूबाट उठ, र ख्रीष्ट तिमीमा चम्कनुहुनेछ ।”
15 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise,
त्यसकारण तिमी कसरी हिँड्छौ भन्ने कुरामा होसियार होओ, मूर्ख जस्तो होइन तर बुद्धिमानजस्तो ।
16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
समयलाई बचाओ, किनकि दिनहरू खराब छन् ।
17 Therefore, don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
मूर्ख नबन । बरु, प्रभुको इच्छा के हो, सो बुझ ।
18 Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
र दाखमद्यले नमात्तीओ, किनकि त्यसले विनाशतर्फ डोर्याउँछ । तर त्यसको सट्टामा, पवित्र आत्माले भरिओ ।
19 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
एक-अर्कामा भजनहरूमा र आत्मिक गीतहरूमा बोल । परमप्रभुको निम्ति तिमीहरूका हृदयमा गीतहरू गाउँदै प्रशंसा गर ।
20 giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah to God, even the Father;
येशू ख्रीष्टको नाउँमा, सधैँ सबै कुराहरूको निम्ति पिता परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद चढाओ ।
21 subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Messiah.
ख्रीष्टको आदरको लागि एकअर्काको अधिनमा रहो ।
22 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
पत्नीहरू हो, प्रभुको अधीनमा रहे जस्तो आफ्ना पतिहरूको अधीनमा बस ।
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Messiah also is the head of the assembly, being himself the saviour of the body.
किनकि पति पत्नीको शिर हो, जसरी ख्रीष्ट पनि मण्डलीको शिर हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँ शरीरको उद्धारकर्ता हुनुहुन्छ ।
24 But as the assembly is subject to Messiah, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.
तर जसरी मण्डली ख्रीष्टप्रति समर्पित छ, त्यसरी नै पत्नीहरूलेपनि आफ्ना पतिहरूप्रति सबैथोकमा त्यसै गर्नुपर्दछ ।
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Messiah also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her,
पतिहरू हो, जसरी ख्रीष्टले मण्डलीलाई प्रेम गर्नुभयो र आफैँलाई तिनको निम्ति समर्पित गर्नुभयो, त्यसरी नै आफ्ना पत्नीहरूलाई प्रेम गर ।
26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
उहाँले तिनलाई पवित्र गर्न यसो गर्नुभयो । उहाँले तिनलाई वचनमा पानीले धोएर शुद्ध पार्नुभयो ।
27 that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without defect.
दागरहित वा चाउरी नभएको वा अन्य यस्ता कुनै थोक नभएको, तर पवित्र र दोषरहित, महिमित मण्डली आफ्नै निम्ति प्रस्तुत गर्नको निम्ति उहाँले यस्तो गर्नुभयो ।
28 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
यस्तै प्रकारले पतिहरूले तिनीहरूका आफ्ना पत्नीहरूलाई आफ्ना शरीरलाई जस्तै प्रेम गर्नुपर्छ । आफ्नो पत्नीलाई प्रेम गर्नेले आफैँलाई प्रेम गर्छ ।
29 For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,
कहिल्यै पनि कसैले आफ्नो शरीरलाई घृणा गरेको छैन । बरु, उसले यसलाई पालन-पोषण गरेर प्रेम गर्दछ, जसरी ख्रीष्टले पनि मण्डलीलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्छ ।
30 because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.
किनकि हामी उहाँका शरीरका सदस्यहरू हौँ ।
31 “For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.”
“यसैकारणले गर्दा एकजना मानिसले उसको बुबा र आमालाई छोड्नेछ र उसको पत्नीसँग मिल्नेछ, र ती दुई एउटै शरीर हुनेछन् ।”
32 This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Messiah and the assembly.
यो एउटा महान् गुप्त सत्यता हो, तर मैले ख्रीष्ट र उहाँको मण्डलीको बारेमा बताइरहेको छु ।
33 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
तथापि, तिमीहरू प्रत्येकले आफ्ना पत्नीलाई आफूलाई जस्तै प्रेम गर्नुपर्छ, र पत्नीले पतिलाई सम्मान गर्नुपर्छ ।
