Colossians 1
1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy, a brother,
PAULUJ wanporon en Krijtuj Iejuj amen pan kupur en Kot o ri atail Timoteuj,
2 to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ Jesus who are at Colossae.
Oni ri at jaraui o lelapok ren Krijuj akan, me mi Koloje; mak o popol jan ren Kot Jam atail o Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj!
3 Grace and peace to you, from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ. We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying for you always.
Kit kin danke Kot o Jam en atail Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj o kapakapa kin komail kaukaule.
4 For we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that you have toward all the saints,
Kit lao ronadar duen omail pojon Krijtuj Iejuj, o omail limpok on jaraui kan karoj,
5 because of the hope that has been stored up for you in heaven, which you have heard through the Word of Truth in the Gospel.
Pweki kaporopor eu, me nekineki on komail nanlan, duen me komail ronadar maj o ni padak melel en ronamau,
6 This has reached you, just as it is present in the whole world, where it grows and bears fruit, as it has also done in you, since the day when you first heard and knew the grace of God in truth,
Me lei won komail o pil jap akan karoj, o a kin wada o kakairida dueta re omail jan ni ran o, me komail ronadar o dedekier melel mak en Kot;
7 just as you learned it from Epaphras, our most beloved fellow servant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ Jesus.
Duen omail padakki jan ren Epapraj at warok kompok amen, me papa lelapok en Krijtuj on komail amen,
8 And he has also manifested to us your love in the Spirit.
Me pil kaireki don kit duen omail limpok pena ni Nen.
9 Then, too, from the day when we first heard it, we have not ceased praying for you and requesting that you be filled with the knowledge of his will, with all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
I me je jota kin dukedi jan at kapakapa kin komail o poekipoeki jan ni ran en at ronadar, pwe komail en direki erpit en kupur a, o komail en lolekon o koiok nenin,
10 so that you may walk in a manner worthy of God, being pleasing in all things, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God,
O kekeid wei duen me kon on Kaun o, o kapareda wan wiawia mau karoj, o kakairida ki aja Kot,
11 being strengthened in every virtue, in accord with the power of his glory, with all patience and longsuffering, with joy,
O keleki kel karoj duen manaman en a linan pwen dadaurata o kanonamalu peren,
12 giving thanks to God the Father, who has made us worthy to have a share in the portion of the saints, in the light.
Danke Jam o, me kotin kamau kitail lar, en ian pwaijaneki iojo en me jaraui kan nan marain.
13 For he has rescued us from the power of darkness, and he has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love,
Me kotin kapiti jan kitail manaman en rotorot, ap kotin kajau kitail don nan wein Na kompokepa,
14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, the remission of sins.
Me kotin dore kitail la iei lapwan dip atail,
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of every creature.
I me kajale pan Kot, me jo janjal, me mejeni en audepa karoj.
16 For in him was created everything in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers. All things were created through him and in him.
Pwe karoj wiauiki i, karoj me mi nanlan o jappa, me janjal o me jo janjal, ma me poe kan, de jaumaj akan, de wei kan, de manaman akan, meakaroj wiauiki i o on i.
17 And he is before all, and in him all things continue.
O i me kotikot mon meakaroj o meakaroj memaureki i.
18 And he is the head of his body, the Church. He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, so that in all things he may hold primacy.
O i tapwin war a, iei momodijou, o i me tapi o mejeni en me iajadar jan ren me melar akan, pwe i en mon meakaorj.
19 For the Father is well-pleased that all fullness reside in him,
Pwe Kot kotin kileledier me mau kan karoj en mi re a.
20 and that, through him, all things be reconciled to himself, making peace through the blood of his cross, for the things that are on earth, as well as the things that are in heaven.
I ari kalolamau penan pein I meakan karoj, ma ni jappa de nanlan, ni a kotin wiada muei mau ki ntan a lopu.
21 And you, though you had been, in times past, understood to be foreigners and enemies, with works of evil,
O komail, me doo wei jan o imwintiti maj o ni omail lamelame o wiawia jued akan,
22 yet now he has reconciled you, by his body of flesh, through death, so as to offer you, holy and immaculate and blameless, before him.
A kotin kalolamau komail lar ki war a uduk ni a matala, pwen kapware kin komail da jaraui o pun o jo kadeik pa omail mo a.
23 So then, continue in the faith: well-founded and steadfast and immovable, by the hope of the Gospel that you have heard, which has been preached throughout all creation under heaven, the Gospel of which I, Paul, have become a minister.
Ma komail dadaurata pojon o teneten o jo mokid wei jan ni kaporopor ki ronamau, me komail ronadar, o me lolok on audepa karoj me mi pan lan, me nai Pauluj wialar papa men.
24 For now I rejoice in my passion on your behalf, and I complete in my flesh the things that are lacking in the Passion of Christ, for the sake of his body, which is the Church.
I ap perenki ai kalokolok ki komail o men kaimwijok kila uduk ai me luedi ni kamekam en Krijtuj, pweki war a, iei momodijou,
25 For I have become a minister of the Church, according to the dispensation of God that has been given to me among you, so that I may fulfill the Word of God,
Me i wialar papa men duen koa dodok en Kot, me i aleer pweki komail pwen ujela maj an en Kot.
26 the mystery which had remained hidden to past ages and generations, but which now is manifested to his saints. (aiōn g165)
Iei me rir kot, me rir jan nin tapin kaua o men kaua, a met a kadiarok on japwilim a jaraui kan, (aiōn g165)
27 To them, God willed to make known the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ and the hope of his glory within you.
Me Kot men kajanjaleda kapwapwa en linan en rir wet on men liki kan, iei Krijtuj me kotikot lol omail, i kaporopor en linan.
28 We are announcing him, correcting every man and teaching every man, with all wisdom, so that we may offer every man perfect in Christ Jesus.
I me kit kin padaki o pane panaui aramaj karoj, o padapadaki aramaj karoj ni lolekon karoj, pwe kit en kapwareda aramaj karoj ni unjoki on Krijtuj.
29 In him, too, I labor, striving according to his action within me, which he works in virtue.
I me i pil dodok kelail, duen wiawia en i me kin dodok kelail lol i.
