Colossians 1
1 Paul, apostle of Christ Jesus, by God's will, and Timotheus the brother,
Xoossa shenen Yesus kiristoosan kiitetida Phawulosapene nu isha Xinitosape,
2 to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ which [are] in Colosse. Grace to you and peace from God our Father [and Lord Jesus Christ].
Qolasiyasen diza kiristoosan dummatidaytassine ammanetida ishatas nu Aawa Xoossafe sarotethine kiyateth intes gido.
3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ continually [when] praying for you,
Nu inte gishshi woossiza wurso gallas nu Goda Yesus kiristoosa Aawa Xoossa galatoos.
4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and the love which ye have towards all the saints,
Gaasoyka intes Yesus kiristoosan diza ammanonine ammaniza asa inte wurs siiqizayssa nu siyida gishshiko.
5 on account of the hope which [is] laid up for you in the heavens; of which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the glad tidings,
Hess wurikka haniday salon intes giigetida hidotape dendidayssankko. Hessa he hedota gishshi mishiracho qaala inte kasetidi siydista.
6 which are come to you, as [they are] in all the world, [and] are bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day ye heard [them] and knew indeed the grace of God, in truth:
Hessika hee inteko gakides. Hessa mishiracho qaala inte siyosopenne Xoossa kiyatetha tumatetha inte ero gallasafe haa simmin alame yuushon izi oothishe dizayssa mala inte achchan ayfe ayfishene diccishe dees.
7 even as ye learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow-bondman, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you,
Hessaka ha7i nu gishshi gididi kiristoosas ammanetida oothancha gididayssinne nunara issife oothiza siiqizade Ephapiray intena tamarisides.
8 who has also manifested to us your love in [the] Spirit.
Qasseka izi intenan diza ayana siiqotetha nuusu yootides.
9 For this reason we also, from the day we heard [of your faith and love], do not cease praying and asking for you, to the end that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of his will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
Nu qasse hessa siyosope haa simmin inte Xoossa shene eratethaninne ayana cinccatethan intena kunththana mala inte gishshi woossa qanxxibeyko.
10 [so as] to walk worthily of the Lord unto all well-pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing by the true knowledge of God;
Hessaththoka Godas bessiza duusu daana mala inte iza poli ufayssana mala lo7o ootho wurson ayfe immana malanne Xoossu eron dicci dicci baana mala nu intes woossos.
11 strengthened with all power according to the might of his glory unto all endurance and longsuffering with joy;
Intes gita minotethine danda7ay deyana mala iza boncho wolqa mala inte keehi minni ufa7ettishe7oso geeshati laatiza po7oso nu laatanas nuna gathida Xoossa Aawa galatana malakko.
12 giving thanks to the Father, who has made us fit for sharing the portion of the saints in light,
13 who has delivered us from the authority of darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of his love:
Izi nuna dhuman haaretethafe ashshidi gede ba dosiza naaza kawotethan nuna pinththides.
14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins;
Nu izan wozettidi nagarape maaretidos.
15 who is image of the invisible God, firstborn of all creation;
Kiristoosay ayfen beetontta Xoossas tumu lemusone medhetetha wursofe gitanne bayrako.
16 because by him were created all things, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or lordships, or principalities, or authorities: all things have been created by him and for him.
Medheteth wuri izan medhettides. Salonine sa7an dizayti, ayfen beetizaytine beetonttayti gidinkka woliqamata gidinka haarizayta gidinka woykko godatethi dizayti haniday wurikka izan izas medhetides.
17 And he is before all, and all things subsist together by him.
Izi wursofe kase dees. Wurika issi bolla oyketi minniday izaniko.
18 And he is the head of the body, the assembly; who is [the] beginning, firstborn from among the dead, that he might have the first place in all things:
Izi ba asateth gidida woossa keethays hu7eko. Wurisos bolla gidana mala izi hayqida asa wursofe koyro dendides.
19 for in him all the fulness [of the Godhead] was pleased to dwell,
Hessika haniday kumetha Xoossatethay iza naazan deyana mala Xoossa Aawa shene gidida gishshiko.
20 and by him to reconcile all things to itself, having made peace by the blood of his cross — by him, whether the things on the earth or the things in the heavens.
Masqale bolla izape gukida suuthan saroteth medhidi biitta bolla gidin salo bolla dizayssa wurs iza baggara benara iginththides.
21 And you, who once were alienated and enemies in mind by wicked works, yet now has it reconciled
Inte iitta amale geedon kase inte Xoossafe shaaketidi inte inte qofara iza morikistakoshin.
22 in the body of his flesh through death; to present you holy and unblamable and irreproachable before it,
Ha7i qasse inte bolla balayine wothoy bayndda geeshata oothidi intena ba sinthth shiishanas kiristoosa asho hayqo baggara Xooss intena iginththides.
23 if indeed ye abide in the faith founded and firm, and not moved away from the hope of the glad tidings, which ye have heard, which have been proclaimed in the whole creation which [is] under heaven, of which I Paul became minister.
Hessika hananay inte ammanon xaphidine giigetidi inte inte ammanon ekkida mishshiracho qaalape qaaxxontta minni eqqikokko. Intesinne salo gufanththon diza medhetethas sabaketida mishiracho qaalay hessako. Ta Phawulosayka hayssa ha mishshiracho qaalas oothancha gidadis.
24 Now, I rejoice in sufferings for you, and I fill up that which is behind of the tribulations of Christ in my flesh, for his body, which is the assembly;
Ta inte gishshi waaye beyidayss ha7ika tana ufaysses. Kiristoosay ba asatetha hessika woossa keeththa gishshi izi ekkida waayezape ekkishin pacciday diiko tani ta ashon kunthana.
25 of which I became minister, according to the dispensation of God which [is] given me towards you to complete the word of God,
Xoossa qaala ta intes pacey baynida gaththana mala taas Xoossafe imettida hadara mala ta woossa keeththa oothancha gidadis.
26 the mystery which [has been] hidden from ages and from generations, but has now been made manifest to his saints; (aiōn g165)
Ha qaalay beni wodepene kase yeletethafe geemmid xuura gidi gammi7des. Ha7i gidiko ammanizaytas wursos qonccides. (aiōn g165)
27 to whom God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you the hope of glory:
Xoossi ba asas qonccisanas koyida xuuray iza boncho duretethay dere asa gidida inte giddon ay mala gitakone bessanaskko. Izika iza boncho ufayssi gidida inte gidon diza kiristoosako.
28 whom we announce, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, to the end that we may present every man perfect in Christ.
Nuka issi issi ura kiristoosas kumetha asi hisiti shiishanas danda7ana mala asi wurs hiillara zorishene tamarisishe kiristoossa gishshi sabakoos.
29 Whereunto also I toil, combating according to his working, which works in me in power.
Taka ta garisan minththa oothiza iza woliqan ubbaa baaxistashe he qofa polanas dafistayss.
