PT Patriarchal Text (Antoniades 1904/1912)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 και υμας οντας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν και ταις αμαρτιαις,
1 Y [DE ella recibisteis] vosotros, que estabais muertos en vuestros delitos y pecados,
1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins,
2 εν αις ποτε περιεπατησατε κατα τον αιωνα του κοσμου τουτου, κατα τον αρχοντα της εξουσιας του αερος, του πνευματος του νυν ενεργουντος εν τοις υιοις της απειθειας·
2 En que en otro tiempo anduvisteis conforme á la condición de este mundo, conforme al príncipe de la potestad del aire, el espíritu que ahora obra en los hijos de desobediencia:
2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience.
3 εν οις και ημεις παντες ανεστραφημεν ποτε εν ταις επιθυμιαις της σαρκος ημων, ποιουντες τα θεληματα της σαρκος και των διανοιων, και ημεν τεκνα φυσει οργης, ως και οι λοιποι·—
3 Entre los cuales todos nosotros también vivimos en otro tiempo en los deseos de nuestra carne, haciendo la voluntad de la carne y de los pensamientos; y éramos por naturaleza hijos de ira, también como los demás.
3 We also all once lived among them in the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
4 ο δε θεος πλουσιος ων εν ελεει, δια την πολλην αγαπην αυτου ην ηγαπησεν ημας,
4 Empero Dios, que es rico en misericordia, por su mucho amor con que nos amó,
4 But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
5 και οντας ημας νεκρους τοις παραπτωμασιν συνεζωοποιησεν τω χριστω· χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι·
5 Aun estando nosotros muertos en pecados, nos dió vida juntamente con Cristo; por gracia sois salvos;
5 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—
6 και συνηγειρεν και συνεκαθισεν εν τοις επουρανιοις εν χριστω ιησου,
6 Y juntamente nos resucitó, y asimismo nos hizo sentar en los cielos con Cristo Jesús,
6 and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 ινα ενδειξηται εν τοις αιωσιν τοις επερχομενοις τον υπερβαλλοντα πλουτον της χαριτος αυτου εν χρηστοτητι εφ ημας εν χριστω ιησου.
7 Para mostrar en los siglos venideros las abundantes riquezas de su gracia en [su] bondad para con nosotros en Cristo Jesús.
7 that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus;
8 τη γαρ χαριτι εστε σεσωσμενοι δια της πιστεως· και τουτο ουκ εξ υμων, θεου το δωρον,
8 Porque por gracia sois salvos por la fe; y esto no de vosotros, [pues es] don de Dios:
8 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
9 ουκ εξ εργων, ινα μη τις καυχησηται.
9 No por obras, para que nadie se gloríe.
9 not of works, that no one would boast.
10 αυτου γαρ εσμεν ποιημα, κτισθεντες εν χριστω ιησου επι εργοις αγαθοις, οις προητοιμασεν ο θεος ινα εν αυτοις περιπατησωμεν.
10 Porque somos hechura suya, criados en Cristo Jesús para buenas obras, las cuales Dios preparó para que anduviésemos en ellas.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
11 διο μνημονευετε οτι υμεις ποτε τα εθνη εν σαρκι, οι λεγομενοι ακροβυστια υπο της λεγομενης περιτομης εν σαρκι χειροποιητου,
11 Por tanto, acordaos que en otro tiempo vosotros los Gentiles en la carne, que erais llamados incircuncisión por la que se llama circuncisión, hecha con mano en la carne;
11 Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “uncircumcision” by that which is called “circumcision” (in the flesh, made by hands),
12 οτι ητε εν τω καιρω εκεινω χωρις χριστου, απηλλοτριωμενοι της πολιτειας του ισραηλ και ξενοι των διαθηκων της επαγγελιας, ελπιδα μη εχοντες και αθεοι εν τω κοσμω.
12 Que en aquel tiempo estabais sin Cristo, alejados de la república de Israel, y extranjeros á los pactos de la promesa, sin esperanza y sin Dios en el mundo.
12 that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
13 νυνι δε εν χριστω ιησου υμεις οι ποτε οντες μακραν εγγυς εγενηθητε εν τω αιματι του χριστου.
13 Mas ahora en Cristo Jesús, vosotros que en otro tiempo estabais lejos, habéis sido hechos cercanos por la sangre de Cristo.
13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ.
14 αυτος γαρ εστιν η ειρηνη ημων, ο ποιησας τα αμφοτερα εν και το μεσοτοιχον του φραγμου λυσας,
14 Porque él es nuestra paz, que de ambos hizo uno, derribando la pared intermedia de separación;
14 For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of separation,
15 την εχθραν, εν τη σαρκι αυτου τον νομον των εντολων εν δογμασιν καταργησας, ινα τους δυο κτιση εν εαυτω εις ενα καινον ανθρωπον ποιων ειρηνην,
15 Dirimiendo en su carne las enemistades, la ley de los mandamientos en orden á ritos, para edificar en sí mismo los dos en un nuevo hombre, haciendo la paz,
15 having abolished in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,
16 και αποκαταλλαξη τους αμφοτερους εν ενι σωματι τω θεω δια του σταυρου, αποκτεινας την εχθραν εν αυτω·
16 Y reconciliar por la cruz con Dios á ambos en un mismo cuerpo, matando en ella las enemistades.
16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility through it.
17 και ελθων ευηγγελισατο ειρηνην υμιν τοις μακραν και τοις εγγυς,
17 Y vino, y anunció la paz á vosotros que estabais lejos, y á los que estaban cerca:
17 He came and preached peace to you who were far off and to those who were near.
18 οτι δι αυτου εχομεν την προσαγωγην οι αμφοτεροι εν ενι πνευματι προς τον πατερα.
18 Que por él los unos y los otros tenemos entrada por un mismo Espíritu al Padre.
18 For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.
19 αρα ουν ουκετι εστε ξενοι και παροικοι, αλλα συμπολιται των αγιων και οικειοι του θεου,
19 Así que ya no sois extranjeros ni advenedizos, sino juntamente ciudadanos con los santos, y domésticos de Dios;
19 So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God,
20 εποικοδομηθεντες επι τω θεμελιω των αποστολων και προφητων, οντος ακρογωνιαιου αυτου ιησου χριστου,
20 Edificados sobre el fundamento de los apóstoles y profetas, siendo la principal piedra del ángulo Jesucristo mismo;
20 being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;
21 εν ω πασα οικοδομη συναρμολογουμενη αυξει εις ναον αγιον εν κυριω·
21 En el cual, compaginado todo el edificio, va creciendo para [ser] un templo santo en el Señor:
21 in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
22 εν ω και υμεις συνοικοδομεισθε εις κατοικητηριον του θεου εν πνευματι.
22 En el cual vosotros también sois juntamente edificados, para morada de Dios en Espíritu.
22 in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
