< Ŵakolosai 2 >
1 Ngusaka mmanyilile inguti pakupanganya masengo kwa kuchalila kwa ligongo lyenu ni kwa ligongo lya ŵandu ŵa ku Laodikia ni kwa ligongo lya wose ŵanganamone une.
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 Ngupanganya yelei kuti atulaswe mitima ni kulumbikana pamo mu unonyelo ni pakupunda yeleyo akombole kugumbalichiswa upile kwa winji ni kumanyilila kwa kusyene. Pele chakombole kuchimanyilila chantemela cha Akunnungu, malumbo gakwe kwamanyilila Kilisito asyene.
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 Ŵelewo pe ni ŵakukombola kwatenda ŵandu alumanyilile lunda lose ni umanyilisi wose wa Akunnungu.
in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
4 Ngunsalila ŵanyamwe maloŵe ga kuti mundu akanlambusya kwa maloŵe gakunnyenga namuno gakuwoneka gambone.
This I say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.
5 Pakuŵa atamuno ndalichile kwa chiilu, nambo ndili pamo ni ŵanyamwe mu mbumu, none ngusengwa kwiwona ipanganyo yenu ikwendelechela kwa ukotopasyo ni inkuti pakwima chimile nkwakulupilila Kilisito.
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 Nipele pakuŵa mwapochele Kilisito Yesu kuŵa Ambuje ŵenu, iyoyo njendeje nkulumbikana ni ŵelewo.
As therefore ye received Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk in him,
7 Njendelechele kukamulangana nawo mpela ila nkuŵika michiga nkati mwakwe ni umi wenu utaŵikwe pachanya pakwe ni kwima nkulimbangana mu chikulupi mpela imwatite kujiganyikwa. Pakupunda yeleyo mmeje ŵakutogolela nnope.
rooted and builded up in him, and stablished in your faith, even as ye were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
8 Nlilolechesye akaika mundu kukunnambusya kwa maloŵe ga majiganyo gaunami, ndande jakwe jili mapochelo ga ŵandu ni ga masoka gagakulamula pachilambo nambo ngagakutyochela kwa Kilisito asyene.
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 Pakuŵa chinungu chose cha Akunnungu chili mu nkati mwa chiilu cha Kilisito.
for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,
10 Ni nkulumbikana nawo, ŵanyamwe nkwete umi wautindimisyo. Ŵelewo akwete ulamusi pa masoka gagakutawala ni achakulu wose.
and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power:
11 Nkulumbikana ni Kilisito ŵanyamwe mwaumbele ni kusileka tama syangalumbana simpagwile nasyo nambo kuumbala kwangatendekwa kwa makono ga ŵandu nambo mmumbeswe ni Kilisito nsyene.
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 Pakuŵa pamwabatisilwe mwasichikwe pamo ni Kilisito, ni mu ubatiso wo iyoyo ŵanyamwe mwasyuchile pamo nawo ligongo mwakulupilile machili ga Akunnungu, juŵansyusisye Che Yesu.
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 Kalakala mwaliji ŵawe ligongo lya sambi syenu ni tama sya chiilu syangalumbana simpagwile nasyo syasikusaka kupanganya sambi syaliji syangatyochekwa. Nambo sambano Akunnungu ampele umi pamo ni Kilisito. Nombe Akunnungu atulechelesye sambi syetu syose,
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 paŵachipukwite chikalata chachilembekwe magambo getu pamo ni malajisyo gakwe chati Akunnungu akatulamulile uwe, ŵachipukwite kusyene kwa kuchiŵamba pa nsalaba.
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 Pa nsalaba po Kilisito ŵagasumwile machili masoka gagakutawala ni achakulu ŵakutawala. Ŵatasile soni paujo pa ŵandu kwa kwakwekwelemya nti ŵandu ŵataŵikwe mu ulendo kwalosya kuti ŵapundile.
having put off from himself the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Nkakunda mundu jwalijose kummichila lilajisyo nkati chakulya ni yakung'wa atamuno yankati lyuŵa lya chindimba pane Lyuŵa lyakuwoneka lwesi pane Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
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 Ayiyi yose ili chiwilili cha indu yaikwika yo, nambo usyene wa yele yose uli Kilisito nsyene.
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
18 Nkajitichisya kulamulikwa ni mundu jwalijose jwakulilola kwa paasa kuti ali jwakulitulusya ni jwakwapopelela achikatumetume ŵa kwinani. Mundu jwanti yele akulifuna kwa indu yaiweni ni kwa ligongo lya lunda lwakwe.
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 Mundu jo alesile kukamulangana ni Kilisito ŵaali ntwe wa chiilu. Kwa litala lya ŵelewo chiilu chose chikutagwa machili ni kulumbikanywa pamo kwa iŵalo ni mitasi jakwe, nombecho chikukula kwa unonyelo wa Akunnungu.
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 Ŵanyamwe mwawile pamo ni Kilisito ni kuwombolwa kutyochela mu machili ga masoka gagakulamula pa chilambo. Ana ligongo chi nkutama mpela ŵandu ŵa pa chilambo? Kwa chichi nkugajitichisya malajisyo gati yeleyo,
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 “Nkakamula chelechi, nkapasya chelechi, nkakwaya achila”?
Handle not, nor taste, nor touch
22 Yeleyo yose chiŵe yangalimate yamalaga kutumika. Yeleyo yose ili malajisyo ni majiganyo ga ŵandu pe.
(all which things are to perish with the using), after the precepts and doctrines of men?
23 Isyene malajisyo ga gakuwoneka kuŵa ga lunda, nkupopela kwaliŵichile achinsyene ni nkulitulusya kwao ni nkuchilongosya chiilu kwakuchisausya. Nambo yele yose nganikola machili ga kusilekasya tama sya chiilu.
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.
