Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
Mini Polo Jesu Kilisiti tondo kelima U Tienu yanbuama po, leni ti kpiilo Timote n diani li tili,
2 To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace and peace to you from God our Father.
Yinba ti kpiiba yaaba n tie bi nigagidihanba leni bi nidugikaaba ki ye kolosa po yaapo. Ti Baa U Tienu n pa yi li hanbili leni mi yanduanma.
3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,
Ti tuodi U Tienu yua n tie ti Diedo Jesu kilisiti Baa, ki go jaandi yi po yogunu kuli kaa cedi.
4 because we have heard about your faith in Christ Jesus and your love for all the saints—
Tin den gbadi yi dandanli Jesu kilisiti nni leni yi buama bi nigagidihanba kuli po.
5 the faith and love proceeding from the hope stored up for you in heaven, of which you have already heard in the word of truth, the gospel
Yi baa la kelima U Tienu n bili yi po yaa suginma tanpoli po yaapo, imoamoani maama yaama n tie o laabaalihamo n den kpa cua yi kani ki bangi yi yaama.
6 that has come to you. All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood the grace of God.
O ye yi siiga, ki go ye ŋanduna nni kuli, ki luoni li bonluonkaala ki kpedi ki pugidi, nani yi siiga lan den tie maama, hali yin den gbadi ki go bandi U Tienu hanbili yaa daali.
7 You learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf,
Ki hua leni yin den baa yaa bangima ti kpibuado leni ti tuonsoanlielo Epafasa kani, wani yua n tie kilisiti naacen dugikoa yi siiga.
8 and who also informed us of your love in the Spirit.
O den waani ti U Tienu Fuoma yua n teni ke yi pia yaa buamoanma.
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
Li tie kelima lanyaapo yo, ti moko hali tin gbadi yaa daali, yogunu kuli ti jaandi ke U Tienu n gbieni yi leni o yanbuama bandima, leni mi yanfuoma leni ufanu yaala n yegi leni li dandanli.
10 so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God,
Ki yaa cuoni ke li dagidi o Diedo po ki go mani opo cain, ki luoni li bonluonkaala atuonhama buoli kuli nni. Ki yaa kpedi ki suagi U Tienu yanbuama nni.
11 being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that you may have full endurance and patience, and joyfully
Ki yaa pia upaalu li bonla kuli nni kelima O paciamu yu n pia ti kpiagidi yaapo. Lan baa gaa maama yin yaa ye yugunu kuli leni lipamanli leni limoandili leni li juunli.
12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light.
Yaa tuondi mani Baa leni li pamanli, yua n teni ke yi dagidi ki baa yi biinu wani U Tienu n bili ya halimani mi yenma diema nni, o nigagidihanba kuli po.
13 He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son,
Wani yua n lodi ti li biigili paciamu nni, ki kuani ti, o Bijabuadiga yaa diema nni.
14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
O ya niinne ke ti pia mi daafaabima leni ti tuonbiadi sugili.
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
Wani kilisiti tie U Tienu tin ki nua yua yaa nannanli, ki go tie o Bijakpiaga yua n den ye hali ke li ba kuli daa tagi.
16 For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him.
Kelima o yaa niinne li bonla kuli den tagi, yaala n ye tanpoli leni yaala n ye ki tinga nni kuli, tin nua yaala leni tin kaa nua yaala; yaaba n ka yi bali kali kaani po leni yaaba n tie bi diediba leni bi yudanba leni yaaba npia li bali kuli. Li bonla kuli tie o yaa tagima ki tagi o yaa po.
17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
O ye hali ke li bakuli daa ye. Wan n kubi li bonla kuli ke li tuugi ki se bohanla.
18 And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and firstborn from among the dead, so that in all things He may have preeminence.
Wani n tie li jaandieli gbannandi yuli; O tie mi cilima leni onikpialo yua n kpa fii bi tinkpiba siiga lan baa gaa maama wan tua onikpialo li bonla kuli siiga.
19 For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him,
Kelima U Tienu den bua oyema kuli n yaa ye kilisiti nni cain.
20 and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through the blood of His cross.
O den bua ki tugini leni otagima kuli kelima Jesu soama yaama n den wuli li dapoanpoanli po ke yaala n ye tanpoli po leni yaala n ye ki tinga nni kuli n fidi ki tugini leni wani o Diedo.
21 Once you were alienated from God and were hostile in your minds, engaging in evil deeds.
Yinba yaaba n den tie bi canba leni U Tienu yibalinba kelima yi yantiabiada leni yi tuondbiadi po,
22 But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy, unblemished, and blameless in His presence—
moala O guani ki tugini yi leni O kelima O kuuma ti gbannandi nni yaapo U Tienu tieni yeni ke yin fidi ki doagidi O nintuali ki gagidi ki hani cain kaa pia tagiliba kuli kaa pia ban baa kuli yi leni yaala.
23 if indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
Li yaa tie ke yi se ke li pa li dandanli nni, kaa lebidi ki ha yin den baa yaa suginma olaabaalihamo nni, ban waani yua mi tagima kuli. Mini Polo n tua yua yaa tondo.
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions for the sake of His body, which is the church.
N mangi n pali moala leni min laadi yipo yaa fala. Yaala n den poadi Kilisiti fala nni, n baa ki cebini o n yaa gbannandi nni, o jaandieli po, lini yaali n tie o gbannandi.
25 I became its servant by the commission God gave me to fully proclaim to you the word of God,
N tua naacemo kelima U Tienu n puogi nni ya tuonli yi siiga nni yaapo, ke min fidi ki waani U Tienu maama nani lan pundi maama. Mani n tie yaa bondoaginkaala n den wuo
26 the mystery that was hidden for ages and generations but is now revealed to His saints. (aiōn g165)
Hali yogunu ya jamaano n pendi kuli po, ki doagidi moala O nigagidihanba po. (aiōn g165)
27 To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
O bua ki teni O nigagidihanba n yaa bani O bondoaginkaala yeni n pia yaa kpiagidi yaala n tie halimani yi nibuoli kuli po. Laa bondoaginkaala tie li ne Kilisiti ya ye yi niinni yi pia ti kpiagidi suginma.
28 We proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.
Ti wangi wane, ki tundi nilo kuli, ki bogindi nilo kuli leni mi yanfuoma ke tin fidi ki cuani nilo kuli U Tienu nintuali ke o gagidi cain Kilisiti nni.
29 To this end I also labor, striving with all His energy working powerfully within me.
Li tie lani yaapo ke n tuuni, ki moa li muali leni o yaa fidu yuu n tuuni n niinni leni u paciamu.
