Colossians 4
1 You masters, supply your servants with what is just and equitable, knowing that you, too, have a Master in heaven.
Canba nba n ya tiend b tuon sonla yal ŋan gdagd, kdugn: mɔ pia canba ku ye tapol po.
2 Pursue prayer. Be watchful in prayer with acts of thanksgiving.
ŋam k ya jaand man yen a donda yanin.
3 Pray together, for us also, so that God may open a door of speech to us, so as to speak the mystery of Christ, (because of which, even now, I am in chains)
Ya jaand man tya po mɔ, ku tien n fid k fuod l ganl u ñɔmaan po, k min fid k tund b nub Kristo ciila, yal ya po nced k n y c dan salgn.
4 so that I may manifest it in the manner that I ought to speak.
K gɔ ced k yuakul n ŋam k bando nan m bi bu maad nand yen.
5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming this age.
ya ye man yen n yanfuom yen cincanl yab k gɔ da biand n yaam.
6 Let your speech be ever graceful, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to respond to each person.
I maani nya yeg yen i ñɔgaal, k man n gbadim, lanfid yin band yi bu jiin yua kul nand l'an ya man o.
7 As for the things that concern me, Tychicus, a most beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord, will make everything known to you.
N ninjua, n buad o, u tien tuonsu gbengl yua tieg, n tuonsanlielo yua kb yiu Tisik yen, bu waani min tie yua.
8 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that he may know the things that concern you, and may console your hearts,
N ban yo k sono i kann, k yin band tin ye nand, wan fid g sɔng i pala.
9 with Onesimus, a most beloved and faithful brother, who is from among you. They shall make known to you everything that is happening here.
N sɔna yen n ninjua buad'o Onesim yua tie i mɔ ya yua. B bu waani tin yen nanad kul ne kam ne.
10 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, greets you, as does Mark, the near cousin of Barnabas, about whom you have received instructions, (if he comes to you, receive him)
Aristark, n yom yegnu fuondii, yen Barnabas ninjua Marc, yua ya poi kb den dien k Maadi ku ya pund i dogn yin ŋam g gau bonŋanf yeni
11 and Jesus, who is called Justus, and those who are of the circumcision. These alone are my assistants, unto the kingdom of God; they have been a consolation to me.
Jesu yua kb yiu Justus yen mɔ, fuondi b kul ne tie konjakpela i, k tie yab biba mɔn todn kn fiel k san u tien tuonl, k gɔ den sɔng n pal.
12 Epaphras greets you, who is from among you, a servant of Christ Jesus, ever solicitous for you in prayer, so that you may stand, perfect and complete, in the entire will of God.
I nataanu Epafras Jesu Kristo tuonsunl fuondii, u l gba i poi u jaandin, k mɔkiya pan set k gben, k gɔ gbad bonkul ya niimin yin jiin iba canii u fien buamin
13 For I offer testimony to him, that he has labored greatly for you, and for those who are at Laodicea, and for those at Hierapolis.
K dugn n tiend kasied u po ku l gba yim yen Laodise, yen Hirapoli yab kul po u jaandin.
14 Luke, a most beloved physician, greets you, as does Demas.
N donl buad'o dogda Luc fuondi, yen demas
15 Greet the brothers who are at Laodicea, and Nymphas, and those who are at his house, a church.
Fuond man t ninjab yab ye hal Laodise yen Nin fas yen u jaandiogn yab, yab yen u den yen kul n po na.
16 And when this epistle has been read among you, cause it to be read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and you should read that which is from the Laodiceans.
I ya pan cog u kadaaog ne i denpo k gben, yin mond Laodise yab n mɔn cog l kadaaog, k yin yuand k ga min den ten Laodise jaadiog ll ya kadaaog yen, k cog l mɔ.
17 And tell Archippus: “See to the ministry that you have received in the Lord, in order to fulfill it.”
Yin ji maad arsip: ŋam k diid u Tien tuonl yal ka den ga yen, k ŋam g son lan ya ŋan.
18 The greeting of Paul by my own hand. Remember my chains. May grace be with you. Amen.
Min pɔl monondien ne yen n nuu. ya tien man n po k n ye dansal gni u Tien balg n ya yen i.
