Nowe Przymierze
Ratunek — w Chrystusie, z łaski i przez wiarę
2 Wy bowiem byliście martwi z powodu waszych upadków i grzechów. 2 Żyliście w nie uwikłani, jak inni w obecnym wieku tego świata. Służyliście władcy sfer powietrznych, który rządzi duchem działającym w nieposłusznych ludziach.[a] 3 Do takich ludzi zresztą my wszyscy niegdyś należeliśmy. Targały nami żądze ciała, jego pragnienia i pomysły — byliśmy z natury warci gniewu, zupełnie tak, jak pozostali.
4 Jednak Bóg, hojny w swym miłosierdziu, kierując się swą wielką miłością, którą nas obdarzył, 5 i to nas, martwych z powodu upadków, ożywił wraz z Chrystusem. Bo z łaski jesteście zbawieni. 6 On nas wraz z Chrystusem przywrócił do życia i wraz z Nim umieścił na wysokościach nieba. Uczynił to w Chrystusie Jezusie, 7 aby ukazać w nadchodzących wiekach nadzwyczajne bogactwo swojej łaski w dobroci względem nas, właśnie w Chrystusie Jezusie.
8 Gdyż z łaski jesteście zbawieni, przez wiarę. Nie jest to waszym osiągnięciem, ale darem Boga. 9 Nie stało się to dzięki uczynkom, aby się ktoś nie wynosił. 10 Jesteśmy Jego dziełem. Zostaliśmy stworzeni w Chrystusie Jezusie do dobrych czynów. Bóg przygotował je już wcześniej, by były treścią naszego życia.
Nowe życie, nowe obietnice i nowe zasady
11 Dlatego pamiętajcie, że wy, niegdyś poganie z pochodzenia, zaliczani do nieobrzezanych przez tych, którzy nazywają się obrzezanymi od znaku dokonanego ręką na ciele, 12 żyliście bez Chrystusa. Byliście odcięci od wspólnoty Izraela, obcy przymierzom związanym z obietnicą, bez nadziei i bez Boga na tym świecie. 13 Jednak teraz, w Chrystusie Jezusie, wy, którzy niegdyś byliście daleko, staliście się bliscy — dzięki krwi Chrystusa.
14 On bowiem jest naszym pokojem. On z dwóch grup ludzi uczynił jedną, gdy kosztem swego ciała usunął wrogość, mur podziału, który je rozdzielał. 15 On zniósł Prawo oparte na przykazaniach, by — wnosząc pokój — stworzyć w sobie samym z dwóch jednego nowego człowieka 16 i obu pojednać z Bogiem w jednym ciele przez krzyż, na którym zniszczył wrogość.
17 A gdy przyszedł, ogłaszał pokój. Niósł go wam, pochodzącym z daleka, podobnie jak tym pochodzącym z bliska, 18 gdyż przez Niego mamy dostęp do Ojca, jedni i drudzy, w jednym Duchu.
Boża świątynia
19 Tak więc nie jesteście już obcymi, przybyszami, lecz współobywatelami świętych i domownikami Boga. 20 Stoicie na fundamencie apostołów i proroków. Jego kamieniem węgielnym jest Chrystus Jezus. 21 W Nim cała budowla, jako spójna całość, rośnie na święty przybytek w Panu. 22 W Nim również wy wspólnie się budujecie na mieszkanie Boga w Duchu.

Ang Salita ng Diyos
Binuhay kay Cristo
2 At patungkol sa inyo, kayo ay dating mga patay na sa inyong mga pagsalangsang at mga kasalanan.
2 Sa mga ito dati kayong namuhay ayon sa takbuhin ng sanlibutang ito, ayon sa pinuno ng kapamahalaan ng hangin, ang espiritu na ngayon ay gumagawa sa mga anak ng pagsuway. 3 Tayo noon ay nag-asal na kasama nila ayon sa mga nasa ng ating laman. Ginagawa natin ang nasa ng laman at ng mga kaisipan. Tayo rin ay likas na mga anak na kinapopootan tulad ng iba. 4 Ngunit, ang Diyos ay sagana sa kahabagan. Sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang dakilang pag-ibig, tayo ay inibig niya. 5 Kahit noong tayo ay patay sa ating mga pagsalangsang ay binuhay niya tayong kasama ni Cristo. Sa pamamagitan ng biyaya kayo ay naligtas. 6 Tayo ay kasamang binuhay at kasamang pinaupo sa kalangitan kay Cristo Jesus. 7 Ito ay upang maipakita niya sa darating na mga kapanahunan ang nakakahigit na yaman ng kaniyang biyaya, sa kaniyang kabutihan sa atin sa pamamagitan ni Cristo Jesus. 8 Ito ay sapagkat sa biyaya kayo naligtas sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya, at ito ay hindi sa inyong sarili, ito ay kaloob ng Diyos. 9 Ito ay hindi dahil sa gawa upang hindi magmalaki ang sinuman. 10 Ito ay sapagkat tayo ay kaniyang mga likha na nilikha ng Diyos kay Cristo Jesus para sa mga mabuting gawa, na inihanda ng Diyos noong una na dapat nating ipamuhay.
Nagkakaisa kay Cristo
11 Kaya nga, alalahanin ninyo na kayo ay dating mga Gentil sa laman. Mga tinawag na hindi nasa pagtutuli niyaong mga nasa pagtutuli sa laman na gawa ng kamay.
12 Sa panahong iyon, kayo ay hiwalay kay Cristo, mga ihiniwalay sa pagkamamamayan ng Israel at mga dayuhan sa mga tipan ng pangako. Wala kayong pag-asa at wala kayong Diyos sa sanlibutan. 13 Sa ngayon, kay Cristo Jesus, kayo na dating malayo ay inilapit sa pamamagitan ng dugo ni Cristo.
14 Ito ay sapagkat siya ang ating kapayapaan. Pinag-isa niya ang dalawa. Kaniyang giniba ang gitnang dinding na humahati. 15 Sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang katawan, pinawalang-bisa niya ang pag-aalitan, ang batas ng kautusan na nasa mga utos. Ginawa niya ito upang magawa niya sa kaniyang sarili na ang dalawa ay maging isang bagong tao, sa gayon siya ay gumawa ng kapayapaan. 16 At upang kaniyang pagkasunduin ang dalawa sa iisang katawan sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng krus, na dito ang pag-aalitan ay pinatay niya. 17 Sa kaniyang pagdating, inihayag niya ang ebanghelyo ng kapayapaan sa inyo na malayo at sa kanila na malapit. 18 Sapagkat sa pamamagitan niya tayo ay kapwa may daan patungo sa Ama sa pamamagitan ng isang Espiritu.
19 Kaya nga, hindi na kayo mga dayuhan at mga banyaga, subalit mga mamamayang kasama ng mga banal at ng sambahayan ng Diyos. 20 Kayo ay naitayo sa saligan ng mga apostol at mga propeta. Si Jesucristo ang siya mismong batong-panulok. 21 Sa kaniya ang lahat ng bahagi ng gusali na sama-samang pinaghugpong ay lumalago sa isang banal na dako sa Panginoon. 22 Sa kaniya rin kayo ay sama-samang itinayo upang maging tirahan ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu.

Ephesians 2

Made Alive in Christ
2 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,(A) 2 in which you used to live(B) when you followed the ways of this world(C) and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air,(D) the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.(E) 3 All of us also lived among them at one time,(F) gratifying the cravings of our flesh[a](G) and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. 4 But because of his great love for us,(H) God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions(I)—it is by grace you have been saved.(J) 6 And God raised us up with Christ(K) and seated us with him(L) in the heavenly realms(M) in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace,(N) expressed in his kindness(O) to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is by grace(P) you have been saved,(Q) through faith(R)—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works,(S) so that no one can boast.(T) 10 For we are God’s handiwork,(U) created(V) in Christ Jesus to do good works,(W) which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Jew and Gentile Reconciled Through Christ
11 Therefore, remember that formerly(X) you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)(Y)— 12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners(Z) to the covenants of the promise,(AA) without hope(AB) and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once(AC) were far away have been brought near(AD) by the blood of Christ.(AE)
14 For he himself is our peace,(AF) who has made the two groups one(AG) and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by setting aside in his flesh(AH) the law with its commands and regulations.(AI) His purpose was to create in himself one(AJ) new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, 16 and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross,(AK) by which he put to death their hostility. 17 He came and preached peace(AL) to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.(AM) 18 For through him we both have access(AN) to the Father(AO) by one Spirit.(AP)
19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers,(AQ) but fellow citizens(AR) with God’s people and also members of his household,(AS) 20 built(AT) on the foundation(AU) of the apostles and prophets,(AV) with Christ Jesus himself(AW) as the chief cornerstone.(AX) 21 In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple(AY) in the Lord. 22 And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.(AZ)
