Colossae 2

1 Banghangziam cile note le Laodicea a om te ahizong, maitang kisi in hong mu ngei ngawl lai te atu in deisakna lianpi ka nei na thu na heak tu uh ka dei hi;

For I would have you know, what manner of care I have for you and for them that are at Laodicea, and whosoever have not seen my face in the flesh:

2 Tabang in amate thinsung sia henepna nga tu a, itna khau taw ki hen khawm in, Pa Pathian le Christ thuthuk heak thei na tungtawn in a dim thinmuan na le hauna theampo nei tu uh hi;

That their hearts may be comforted, being instructed in charity, and unto all riches of fulness of understanding, unto the knowledge of the mystery of God the Father and of Christ Jesus:

3 Christ sung ah ciimna le heakna i neisa te theampo sia ki phualseal hi.

In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

4 Kuama in theamna kammal te taw hong kaizot thei ngawl natu in hi thu kong son hi.

Now this I say, that no man may deceive you by loftiness of words.

5 Banghangziam cile ka pumpi taw note kung ah ka om ngawl hang, thaa taw note kung ah hong om khi hi, Christ sung ah na upna uh a kip zia le na nuntak zia uh a hoi te en in ka lungdam hi.

For though I be absent in body, yet in spirit I am with you; rejoicing, and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith which is in Christ.

6 Tua ahikom note Topa Christ Jesus sang zo na hi uh bangma in, Ama sung ah nungta vun:

As therefore you have received Jesus Christ the Lord, walk ye in him;

7 Ama sung ah zungtha in, na nuntakna uh inn bang in sa tavun, upna sung ah kho vun, hong ki hil sa bang in, tua thu sung ah lungdam ko na taw na kidim tavun.

Rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as also you have learned, abounding in him in thanksgiving.

8 Khatpo in leitung ciimna le a mannung ngawl theamna te taw hong siatsua thei ngawl natu in kidawm vun, tua thu in mihing te i pulepa ngeina le leitung piancil pan ngeina hi a, Christ i ngeina bang hi ngawl hi.

Beware lest any man cheat you by philosophy, and vain deceit; according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ:

9 Banghang ziam cile Christ sung ah Pathian hina kicing sia pumpi taw in om hi.

For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally;

10 Taciang note Christ sung ah na kicing uh a, Ama sia thuneina le vangletna theampo i lutang a hihi.

And you are filled in him, who is the head of all principality and power:

11 Note sia Christ sung ah khut taw hi ngawl vunteap tan te na hi uh a, Christ vunteap tan na tungtawn in pumpi sung ah cilesa khialna te na nusia siat zo uh hi:

In whom also you are circumcised with circumcision not made by hand, in despoiling of the body of the flesh, but in the circumcision of Christ:

12 Tuiphumna sung ah Ama taw a ki vui te na hi uh hi, taciang note mithi te kung pan Ama a thokiksak Pathian nasep na upna uh tungtawn in Ama taw na thokik zo uh hi.

Buried with him in baptism, in whom also you are risen again by the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him up from the dead.

13 Taciang na mawna te uh le na cilesa vunteap tan ngawl na sung ah na thi uh laitak in, Ama taw hong nungtasak a, note i khialna theampo hong maisak hi;

And you, when you were dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh; he hath quickened together with him, forgiving you all offences:

14 Eite langpang in khut taw a ki at biakna zeksa te sia eite taw ki lebul hi, taciang tua thu hong phiatsak a eite sung pan hong laksak in, Ama thinglamte tung ah kilcip hi.

Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us. And he hath taken the same out of the way, fastening it to the cross:

15 Taciang thuneina te le vangletna te bosak hi, taciang a kilangtak in hong lak a, tua te i tung ah thinglamte tungtawn in zo thal hi.

And despoiling the principalities and powers, he hath exposed them confidently in open shew, triumphing over them in himself.

16 Tua ahikom neak le dawn huvau ahizong, ni le tha le sabbath ni thu huvau ahizong, kuama in note thu hong khen heak tahen:

Let no man therefore judge you in meat or in drink, or in respect of a festival day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbaths,

17 Tua bang te sia hong theng pheang tu thu te i lim a hihi; ahihang a pumpi sia Christ a hihi.

Which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is of Christ.

18 A ki niamkhiak theam te le vantungmi te a bia te, a mu ngawl uh nate sung ah tum uh a, a mannung ngawl cilesa thinsung taw a ki phasak peuma in na thaman uh hong theam heak tahen,

Let no man seduce you, willing in humility, and religion of angels, walking in the things which he hath not seen, in vain puffed up by the sense of his flesh,

19 Ama in lutang muang ngawl hi, tua lutang pan in ngu le tang te le thangui te tungtawn in pumpi buppi vaak hi, taciang khau bang in ki pheak khawm siat a, Pathian in khangtosak hi.

And not holding the head, from which the whole body, by joints and bands, being supplied with nourishment and compacted, groweth unto the increase of God.

20 Tua ahikom note leitung i bulpi thu te pan kipan in Christ taw na thi zo uh ahile, leitung ah a nungta bang in biakna ngeina thu te,

If then you be dead with Christ from the elements of this world, why do you yet decree as though living in the world?

21 (Tham heak vun; tep heak vun; len heak vun;

Touch not, taste not, handle not:

22 Ta te theampo sia mangthang siat tu hi; ) mihing te i thupiak te le updan te banghang in ni nu ziam?

Which all are unto destruction by the very use, according to the precepts and doctrines of men.

23 Tabang ngeina te sia cilesa lungkimna hi ngawl a, amate deina bang in biakna le ki niamkhiatna, taciang ama pumpi thusimngawl na taw pilna a ki langsak hi bek hi.

Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in superstition and humility, and not sparing the body; not in any honour to the filling of the flesh.
