Kolosa 2
1 Nangmih neh Laodicea kah rhoek ham thingthuelnah mat ka khueh he khaw, hlang boeih loh pumsa kah ka maelhmai he a hmuh pawt te khaw nangmih ming sak ka ngaih.
For I would have you know how greatly I strive for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2 Te daengah ni amih kah thinko te a hloep vetih, Khrih neh Pathen kah olhuep mingnah ham lungnah neh ngaikhueknah khuehtawn cungkuem dongah yakmingnah neh n'cului eh.
that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, [even] Christ,
3 Amah khuiah cueihnah khohrhang neh mingnah olhuep cungkuem te om.
in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
4 He he ka thui daengah ni nangmih te yoeknah neh n'yoek pawt eh.
This I say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.
5 Pumsa neh lakhla mai sitoe cakhaw mueihla nen tah nangmih taengah ka om. Omngaih neh aka tueng khaw nangmih kah khuetnetnah, Khrih dongah khangmainah, nangmih kah tangnah pawn ni.
For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 Te dongah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih te na doe uh vanbangla amah dongah pongpa uh.
As therefore ye received Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk in him,
7 Amah dongah yung aka pael tih aka khueng loh n'thuituen vanbangla tangnah dongah cak uh lah. Uemonah neh baetawt uh lah.
rooted and builded up in him, and stablished in your faith, even as ye were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
8 Poeksoemnah lamloh a payawk tih hlang kah singyoe bangla hmilhmaknah neh a tlonglai pakhat khaw na om pawt ham ngaithuen uh. Diklai kah a niing la om uh tih Khrih kah la a om uh moenih.
Take heed lest there shall be any one that maketh spoil of you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ:
9 Amah dongah Pathen coengnah pumrho kah a soepnah la boeih om.
for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,
10 Te dongah amah dongah ni a soep la na om uh. Anih tah boeilu neh saithainah boeih kah a lu la om.
and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power:
11 Te phoeiah Khrih kah yahvinrhetnah dongah pumsa pum kah duulnah neh amah dongah kutsai mueh yahvinrhetnah neh yahvin na rhet uh.
in whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
12 Baptisma dongah amah neh m'vuei uh tih duek lamkah anih aka thoh Pathen bibi dongkah tangnah rhangneh amah neh na thoo uh coeng.
having been buried with him in baptism, wherein ye were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
13 Nangmih he aka duek tholhdalhnah neh na pumsa kah pumdul dongah na om uh. Tedae nangmih te amah neh n'thoh tih tholhdalhnah cungkuem khuikah mamih he khodawk a ngai.
And you, being dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, you, [I say], did he quicken together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses;
14 Mamih taengkah kut neh a daek oltloek, mamih ham kingkalh la aka om te a huih coeng tih a khoe tih thinglam ah a hen.
having blotted out the bond written in ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us: and he hath taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross;
15 Boeilu rhoek te a khah tih saithainah te sayalh la a yan. Te nen te amih a na coeng.
having put off from himself the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Nangmih te khaw caak cak neh an ok dongah khaw, khotue vaengah khaw, hlasae neh Sabbath ah pakhat long khaw n'coel tangloeng boel saeh.
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a feast day or a new moon or a sabbath day:
17 Te rhoek te aka lo ham koi kah mueihlip ni. Tedae Khrih pum ni kungpuei.
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
18 Nangmih te tlayaenah dongah aka hmae neh puencawn rhoek kah a bawknah loh n'hloo sak boel saeh. Anih loh tuektuek a hmuh te a pumsa kah lungbuei neh a hoeihae la a hoemdawk puei.
Let no man rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he hath seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 Lu te a tuuk moenih. Anih lamloh rhuhcong neh tharhui thanal neh pum tom te a duel. Te vaengah Pathen kah rhoengnah dongla cului uh tih rhoeng van.
and not holding fast the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and bands, increaseth with the increase of God.
20 Diklai kah a niing lamloh Khrih neh na duek uh atah balae tih Diklai ah aka cuep lalah la na hing uh.
If ye died with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, do ye subject yourselves to ordinances,
21 Taek boeh, ten boeh, ben boeh,
Handle not, nor taste, nor touch
22 hlang kah olpaek neh thuituennah bangla a hnonah te a hmawnnah ham ni boeih a om te.
(all which things are to perish with the using), after the precepts and doctrines of men?
23 Te rhoek te poeklawt thothueng, tlayaenah neh pum phaepnah dongah olka hong neh cueihnah aka khueh la om uh. Pumsa kah huengaihnah tah pakhat khaw a phu om pawh.
Which things have indeed a show of wisdom in will-worship, and humility, and severity to the body; [but are] not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
