Colossians 2
1 For I want you to know how much I am struggling for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me face to face,
Nfira muvimani ntambu yantenda lihengu kwa ugangamala toziya ya mwenga, na kwa toziya ya wantu wa Laudikiya na kwa toziya ya woseri haweniliwoni naneni
2 that they may be encouraged in heart, knit together in love, and filled with the full riches of complete understanding, so that they may know the mystery of God, namely Christ,
Ntenda hangu su watulwi moyu na waweri umu mumafiliru, su wamemiziwi kuvimana unakaka, wapati kuvimana bada ya Mlungu, bada ayi ndo Kristu mweni.
3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Mngati mwa Kristu zilififa hanja zoseri zya luhala na mahala.
4 I say this so that no one will deceive you by smooth rhetoric.
Nuwagambirani hangu su namjimira kupayirwa na muntu yoseri kwa visoweru vya mpayu handa viwoneka vya kukwegiziya nentu.
5 For although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I delight to see your orderly condition and firm faith in Christ.
Tembera neni nakutali na mwenga, kumbiti moyu gwangu gwa pamuhera na mwenga na nankunemelera kuwawona mwenga yamugangamala munjimiru yenu mu Kristu.
6 Therefore, just as you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to walk in Him,
Vinu handa ntambu yamumjimiriti Kristu Yesu yakawera Mtuwa, mwendereyi kulikala kwa kulikolerana pamuhera nayomberi.
7 rooted and built up in Him, established in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
Muweri na mishigira mngati mwa Kristu, na mulinyawi pampindi pakuwi na kuwera wagangamala munjimiru ntambu yamfunditwi. Namwenga mlongi mayagashii.
8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ.
Mloli muntu nakawatenda wamanda na mafundu gakuwi hera ga upyota, wagatumbira mayangiru gakuwi ga vitiba vya wantu, ga Kristu ndiri kumbiti ga washamshera wakolamlima, kuliku galii galawa kwa Kristu.
9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells in bodily form.
Toziya mngati mwakuwi Kristu, muuntu wakuwi, ulumngu woseri ulikala kwa kukamilika,
10 And you have been made complete in Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.
mwenga wawapanana ukomu woseri mukulikolerana pamuhera nayomberi. Yomberi kakumpindi kwa washamshera woseri yawakolamlima na wakulu woseri.
11 In Him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of your sinful nature, with the circumcision performed by Christ and not by human hands.
Mukulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu mwenga mwingiziwitwi jandu, kwa kuivula nshimba ya vidoda. Mtenditi hangu kwa jandu ndiri yaitendwa na wantu, kumbiti yaitendwa na Kristu mweni kulawa muuntu wa vidoda.
12 And having been buried with Him in baptism, you were raised with Him through your faith in the power of God, who raised Him from the dead.
Toziya pambatizwiti, msilitwi pamuhera na Kristu, na muubatizu mwenga viraa mzyukusiwitwi pamuhera nayomberi kupitira njimiru mumakakala ga Mlungu, kamzyusiyiti Kristu kulawa kwa yawahowiti.
13 When you were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our trespasses,
Namwenga mhowiti kwa ajili ya vidoda vyenu, toziya mweriti mmumana ndiri Mlungu. Kumbiti vinu Mlungu kawapanana mwenga ukomu pamuhera na Kristu. Mlungu katulekiziya vidoda vyetu vyoseri,
14 having canceled the debt ascribed to us in the decrees that stood against us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross!
pakamaliriti kuwusiya vilii vya kutulunda twenga na malagaliru ga kututatira, kaviwusiya nakamu kwa kuvikong'ondelera palupingika.
15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
Mulipingika alu Kristu kawapokiti makakala gawu washamshera walii wakolamlima na wakulu, kawasoniziyiti palongolu pa wantu kuwakwega gambira walopolwa mumwanja gwa ukanga wakuwi.
16 Therefore let no one judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a feast, a New Moon, or a Sabbath.
Vinu namumleka muntu yoseri kawatuliri malagaliru toziya viboga ama vyakulanda ama mashaka ga msambu ama msambu gwa mwezi gwa syayi ama lishaka lya Kwoyera.
17 These are a shadow of the things to come, but the body that casts it belongs to Christ.
Vitwatila avi ndo shiviyiru hera sha galii gagiza, unakaka weni ndo Kristu.
18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you with speculation about what he has seen. Such a person is puffed up without basis by his unspiritual mind.
Namjimila kulundwa na muntu yoseri yakalitenda kuwera gwa mana toziya ya maonu ga gweka na yakahimiziya unanagala wa mpayu na kuwaguwira kwa wantumintumi wa kumpindi, Muntu handa ayu kalitumba hera kwa mahala gakuwi ga nshimba.
19 He has lost connection to the head, from whom the whole body, supported and knit together by its joints and ligaments, grows as God causes it to grow.
Kaleka kuwera pamuhera na Kristu, yakawera mtuwi gwa nshimba ayi. Kwa ulongoziya wa Kristu, nshimba yoseri ilikola na kuwera pamuhera na viungiru na mishipa yakuwi, naikula ntambu yakafiriti Mlungu.
20 If you have died with Christ to the spiritual forces of the world, why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its regulations:
Mwenga muhowa pamuhera na Kristu na kulopuziwa kulawa mumakakala mwa washamshera wakolamlima wa pasipanu. Vinu kwa shishi mulikala gambira wantu wa pasipanu? Kwa shishi mkola malagaliru gambira aga?
21 “Do not handle, do not taste, do not touch!”?
“Namkola ashi,” “Namlawalira shilii,” “Namshinkula shilii!”
22 These will all perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings.
Vitwatila avi vyoseri vibogoyoka palii pavitumika, aga malagaliru na mafundu ga wantu hera.
23 Such restrictions indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-prescribed worship, their false humility, and their harsh treatment of the body; but they are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.
Nakaka malagaliru aga gawonekana ga luhala mukuguwira kwawalitendiriti weni na muunanagala na kuyitendera nshimba kwa kukalipa, kumbiti gahera makakala ga kulewelera lumata lwa nshimba.
