1 Bulus, unan kaduran Yesu unuzu nyinnu Kutelle, nin Timoti gwana bit,
Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God,
2 udu kiti nalege na Kutelle na fere nani, alenge na ina ni nibinai mine kitin Yesu, ale na idi Nkolosiya. Ubolu Kutelle nin lisosin limang nnuzu Kutelle Ucif bit.
and Timothy our brother, to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ at Colosse: grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Tidinin liburi liboo kiti Kutelle, Ufin Yesu Kristi, ti din suu minu nlira kokome kubi.
We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always in our prayers for you:
4 Tina lanza uyinu mine sa uyenu nanya Yesu Kristi, nin suu kiti na lena Kutelle nafere nani.
(having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and your love to all the saints: )
5 Bara uni kibinai nghinua, nin ciu nanyi mine kiti nimong ile idi kitene kan, anughe wa cizin ulanzu ubelen nni nibinai nine unuzu ligbulang kidagen, ullirun nlai.
for the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which ye have heard before in the word of truth, that is the gospel;
6 Ulenge na una dak kitimine, nafo ulenge na adin macu, akunjo vat inye, nafo na anughe ditutung, uyire liyiru longo na iwa lanza, ida yinno nkunekune Kutelle nanya kidegen mye.
which is come unto you, even as in all the world, and is fruitful; as it hath been also among you, from the day in which ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth.
7 Udi nafo na iwa lanza kitin Abafras, udon licin bite ule na adi kucin kulau ku Yesu kitimine.
As ye also learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you;
8 Ame ule na ana puun nari usu mine nanya Nfip milau.
who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
9 Bara ule usuwe unuzu liyiri longo na tiwa lanza ubellen minu nati sunan nlirang nin tirinu nworo uyinnu kullo munu nin se nyinnunu nanya nn Ufip milau.
For this cause we also, from the day that we heard it, cease not to pray for you, and to request that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding:
10 Anit din nliran nworo ucin mine cinu dert, nin vat, nafo na iba macu nanya liddu licine nin nkunju mine nanya nyinu Kutelle.
that ye may walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 Tidin nliran nworo vat nile imong na idin suwe, nanya likara nzinu mye, una dorfino nin ghinu nanya ncin nibinai mine nin nayi ashau
strengthened with all might according to his glorious power, unto all patience and long-suffering with joy;
12 Tidin nlira nworo ule imone yita iba zazinu Ucif bite nin nayi aboo ulenge na atanari tinanin nbatina ulii ngadu nanya anan yinu sa uyenu nanya uhaske.
giving thanks unto the Father, who hath made us meet for a portion of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Ana bolu nari nanya likara nsirti, anin kpiliya nari udu kitetne tigo Ngono me nayi mye.
who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son:
14 Nanya Ngono mere tina se utucu nin nshawu kulapi.
in whom we have redemption by his blood, even the remission of sins.
15 Gone amere tina se utucu nin shawu na lapi bite
Who is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of the whole creation:
16 Bara kitimere iwa ke imong vat ilengene na idi kitene kani nin nilenge na idi inye vat, ulenge na idin yenju nin nilenge nsalin nyenju, sa kuteet tigo, sa uminu kipin, sa tigo vat nimon amere wa kee bara litime.
for by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers; all were created by Him, and for Him.
17 Ame di ubun nin ko iyang, nanya mere ko iyang di kiti kirum.
He is before all, and by Him all things subsist.
18 Amere liti nanit mye, kidowo mye amere unan cizinu likara, kumat ncizinu nanya na nan nkul, adinnin kitin ncizunu nanya nimon vat.
And He is the head of the body, which is the church: who is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that in all things He might have the pre-eminence.
19 Nanere bara una poo Kutelle liburi a kpiliya, nworo vat nkullu nimon nan so kitimye.
For it pleased the Father, that all fulness should dwell in Him;
20 Anan keele imon vat unuzu ngono mye udu kiti mye, Kutelle wa su nani kubi na awa keele ko iyang unuzu mmi Ngono mye na iwa gutun kitene nbanu kutea, sa imon inyi sa kitene kan.
and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace by the blood of his cross; by Him only, whether they be things on earth, or things in heaven.
21 Au anung wang nkon kubi, iwadi amara kitin Kutelle, iwa di anan nivira mye nanya nibinai nin katwa kananzang.
And you that were formerly alienated, and enemies in your mind by wicked works,
22 Udak nene Kutelle wa munu minu kitene kidowo Yesu kin nkul, ankpa min annit alau, anan sali nimong tizogo anan sali nnanu lidu nbun mye.
yet now hath He reconciled in the body of his flesh, through death, to present you holy, and unblameable, and unreproveable in his sight:
23 Andi tutun anughe ashono ati nanya nyinu sa uyenu anan liyisi nari gagang, na ana nworo iba kalu nani kiti katwa Kutelle na ina latiza ulenge na inasu uwa azi nin vat makeke na udi kadas, meny tutun na ina tii nso unan katuwa meng Bulus.
if so be ye continue grounded and settled in the faith, and be not moved from the gospel, which ye have heard, and which hath been preached throughout the whole creation, of which I Paul am a minister.
24 Idinin liburi liboo nin nniu nighe bara anughe, nkulun ile imonghe na idarni nin lanzu nkul nama kidowo Yesu na unere ana dortu mye.
Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up what is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh, for the sake of his body, which is the church.
25 Nwwasu katwa kutyi nliran dert nin katwa kutelle ka na iwa nii bara anughe uliru Kutelle nan kullo.
Of which I was made a minister according to the dispensation of God, which is given me towards you, that I might fully declare the word of God:
26 Kidegen ka na kiwa nyeshin nin nakus piit udu kuji kidung na kudi ncinu, bara nene ina puun kti nanit alau mye. (aiōn g165)
even that mystery which was hid from former ages and generations, but is now manifested to his saints: (aiōn g165)
27 Anughere ale na Kutelle wa yinin a belle nani ko iyagari use nkanang micine mongo na midi nanya nanit. Ame Kristi na adi nanya mine amere uciu kibinai ngongong mine.
to whom God would make known the rich glory of this mystery, among the gentiles; which is this, that Christ is in you the hope of glory:
28 Amere ulele na tidin su nin lisa mye, tidin gbaru ko gha ku, ti dursuzo ko gha ku nin vat nyiru unan so dert kitin Yesu.
whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29 Nenere ndi katuwa nin nfo kidowo bara katwa mye ka na atii ndi suwe nin likaraa.
in order to which I also labour, striving earnestly according to his energy which operates in me with power.
