Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to bondmen what is just and fair, knowing that ye also have a Master in [the] heavens.
Masu bayi, ku riƙe bayinku da kyau da kuma daidai, domin kun san cewa ku ma kuna da Ubangiji a sama.
2 Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;
Ku nace da yin addu’a, kuna zaman tsaro da kuma godiya.
3 praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,
Ku kuma yi mana addu’a, mu ma, don Allah yă buɗe ƙofa saboda saƙonmu, don mu iya yin shelar asirin Kiristi, wanda saboda shi nake cikin sarƙoƙi.
4 to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
Ku yi addu’a yadda zan yi shelarsa, yadda ya kamata.
5 Walk in wisdom towards those without, redeeming opportunities.
Ku zama masu hikima a yadda kuke ma’amala da waɗanda suke ba masu bi ba; ku kuma yi amfani da kowane zarafi.
6 [Let] your word [be] always with grace, seasoned with salt, [so as] to know how ye ought to answer each one.
Bari maganarku kullum ta zama da ladabi da kuma daɗin ji, domin ku san amsar da ta dace ku ba wa kowa.
7 Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-bondman in [the] Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me;
Tikikus shi ne ƙaunataccen ɗan’uwan nan, wanda ya yi aiki da aminci a hidimar Ubangiji tare da mu, zai kuwa faɗa muku dukan labari game da ni.
8 whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that he might know your state, and that he might encourage your hearts:
Ina aikansa shi a gare ku musamman domin ku san yadda muke, yă kuma ƙarfafa muku zuciya.
9 with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known to you everything here.
Yana zuwa tare da Onesimus, ƙaunatacce da kuma amintaccen mai bin nan, wanda yake ɗaya daga cikinku. Za su gaya muku dukan abin da yake faruwa a nan.
10 Aristarchus my fellow-captive salutes you, and Mark, Barnabas's cousin, concerning whom ye have received orders, (if he come to you, receive him, )
Aristarkus yana a kurkuku tare da ni. Yana gaishe ku, haka ma Markus, wanda kakansa ɗaya ne da Barnabas. (Shi ne na riga na yi magana a kansa, na ce muku in ya zo, ku karɓe shi hannu biyu-biyu.)
11 and Jesus called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These [are the] only fellow-workers for the kingdom of God who have been a consolation to me.
Yesu, wannan da muke kira Yustus, shi ma yana gaisuwa. Waɗannan ne kaɗai Yahudawa masu bi a cikin abokan aikina saboda mulkin Allah. Sun kuma zama da taimako a gare ni.
12 Epaphras, who is [one] of you, [the] bondman of Christ Jesus, salutes you, always combating earnestly for you in prayers, to the end that ye may stand perfect and complete in all [the] will of God.
Efafaras naku, mai hidimar Kiristi Yesu, yana gaisuwa. Kullum yana addu’a dominku sosai, don ku san cikakken abin da Allah yake so ku yi don kuma ku yi shi cikakke.
13 For I bear him witness that he labours much for you, and them in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
Na tabbatar muku, cewa yana aiki ƙwarai dominku da kuma domin waɗanda suke a Lawodiseya da Hiyerafolis.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, salutes you, and Demas.
Luka ƙaunataccen likitan nan, da kuma Demas suna gaishe ku.
15 Salute the brethren in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the assembly which [is] in his house.
Ku miƙa gaisuwata ga’yan’uwan da suke a Lawodiseya, musamman ga Nimfa da kuma ikkilisiyar da take taru a gidanta.
16 And when the letter has been read among you, cause that it be read also in the assembly of Laodiceans, and that ye also read that from Laodicea.
Bayan an karanta muku wannan wasiƙa, ku tabbata an karanta ta kuma a ikkilisiyar Lawodiseyawa; ku ma ku karanta wasiƙar da ta zo daga Lawodiseya.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in [the] Lord, to the end that thou fulfil it.
Ku faɗa wa Arkiffus yă tabbata ya ƙarasa aikin da ya karɓa cikin Ubangiji.
18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you.
Ni Bulus ne nake rubuta muku wannan gaisuwa da hannuna. Ku tuna da sarƙoƙina. Alherin Allah yă kasance tare da ku.
