Colossians 3
1 Therefore, if you be risen with Christ, seek the things that are above; where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God:
Níwọ́n ìgbà tí a ti jí yín dìde pẹ̀lú Kristi ẹ máa ṣàfẹ́rí àwọn nǹkan tí ń bẹ lókè, níbi tí Kristi gbé wà tí ó jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Ọlọ́run.
2 Mind the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth.
Ẹ máa ronú àwọn ohun tí ń bẹ lókè kì í ṣe àwọn nǹkan tí ń bẹ ní ayé.
3 For you are dead; and your life is hid with Christ in God.
Nítorí ẹ̀yin ti kú, a sì fi ìyè yín pamọ́ pẹ̀lú Kristi nínú Ọlọ́run.
4 When Christ shall appear, who is your life, then you also shall appear with him in glory.
Nígbà tí Kristi, ẹni tí í ṣe ìyè yín yóò farahàn, nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú yóò farahàn pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú ògo.
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, lust, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is the service of idols.
Ẹ máa pa ẹ̀yà ara yín tí ń bẹ ní ayé run: àgbèrè, panṣágà, ìwà àìmọ́, ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ àti ìwọra, nítorí pé ìwọ̀nyí jásí ìbọ̀rìṣà.
6 For which things the wrath of God cometh upon the children of unbelief,
Lórí àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ìbínú Ọlọ́run ń bọ̀ wá.
7 In which you also walked some time, when you lived in them.
Ẹ máa ń ṣe àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí tẹ́lẹ̀ nígbà tí ìgbé ayé yín sì jẹ́ apá kan ayé yìí.
8 But now put you also all away: anger, indignation, malice, blasphemy, filthy speech out of your mouth.
Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ẹ gbọdọ̀ fi àwọn wọ̀nyí sílẹ̀: ìbínú, ìrunú, àrankàn, fífi ọ̀rọ̀-kẹ́lẹ́-ba-tẹni-jẹ́ àti ọ̀rọ̀ èérí kúrò ní ètè yín.
9 Lie not one to another: stripping yourselves of the old man with his deeds,
Ẹ má ṣe purọ́ fún ara yín, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ẹ ti bọ́ ògbólógbòó ara yín pẹ̀lú ìṣe rẹ̀ sílẹ̀,
10 And putting on the new, him who is renewed unto knowledge, according to the image of him that created him.
tí ẹ sì ti gbé ìgbé ayé tuntun wọ̀, èyí tí a sọ di tuntun nínú ìmọ̀ ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú àwòrán ẹni tí ó dá a.
11 Where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian nor Scythian, bond nor free. But Christ is all, and in all.
Níbi tí kò gbé sí Giriki tàbí Júù, ìkọlà tàbí aláìkọlà, aláìgbédè, ara Skitia, ẹrú tàbí òmìnira, ṣùgbọ́n Kristi ni ohun gbogbo nínú ohun gbogbo.
12 Put ye on therefore, as the elect of God, holy, and beloved, the bowels of mercy, benignity, humility, modesty, patience:
Nítorí náà, bí àyànfẹ́ Ọlọ́run, ẹni mímọ́ àti olùfẹ́, ẹ gbé ọkàn ìyọ́nú wọ̀, ìṣoore, ìrẹ̀lẹ̀, inú tútù àti sùúrù.
13 Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also.
Ẹ máa fi ara dà á fún ara yín, ẹ sì máa dáríjì ara yín bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ní ẹ̀sùn sí ẹnìkan: bí Kristi ti dáríjì yín, gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ̀yin kí ó máa ṣe pẹ̀lú.
14 But above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection:
Àti borí gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ẹ gbé ìfẹ́ wọ̀, tí í ṣe àmùrè ìwà pípé.
15 And let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, wherein also you are called in one body: and be ye thankful.
Ẹ sì jẹ́ kí àlàáfíà Ọlọ́run kí ó máa ṣe àkóso ọkàn yín, sínú èyí tí a pè yín pẹ̀lú nínú ara kan; kí ẹ sì máa dúpẹ́.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God.
Ẹ jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ Kristi máa gbé inú yín ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú ọgbọ́n gbogbo; kí ẹ máa kọ́ ọ, kí ẹ sì máa gba ara yín níyànjú nínú Saamu, àti orin ìyìn, àti orin ẹ̀mí, ẹ máa kọrin sí Ọlọ́run ní ọkàn ọpẹ́.
17 All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
Ohunkóhun tí ẹ̀yin bá sì ń ṣe ní ọ̀rọ̀ tàbí ní ìṣe, ẹ máa ṣe gbogbo wọn ní orúkọ Jesu Olúwa, ẹ máa fi ọpẹ́ fún Ọlọ́run Baba nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀.
18 Wives, be subject to your husbands, as it behoveth in the Lord.
Ẹ̀yin aya, ẹ máa tẹríba fún àwọn ọkọ yín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti yẹ nínú Olúwa.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter towards them.
Ẹ̀yin ọkọ, ẹ máa fẹ́ràn àwọn aya yín, ẹ má sì ṣe korò sí wọn.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
Ẹ̀yin ọmọ ẹ máa gbọ́ ti àwọn òbí yín ní ohun gbogbo, nítorí èyí dára gidigidi nínú Olúwa.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to indignation, lest they be discouraged.
Ẹ̀yin baba, ẹ má ṣe mú àwọn ọmọ yín bínú, kí wọn má bà á rẹ̀wẹ̀sì.
22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not serving to the eye, as pleasing men, but in simplicity of heart, fearing God.
Ẹ̀yin ẹrú, ẹ gbọ́ ti àwọn olówó yín nípa ti ara ní ohun gbogbo; kì í ṣe ní àrọ́júṣe, bí àwọn aláṣehàn ènìyàn; ṣùgbọ́n ní òtítọ́ inú, ní ìbẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run.
23 Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men:
Ohunkóhun tí ẹ̀yin bá ń ṣe, ẹ máa fi tọkàntọkàn ṣe é fún Olúwa, kí í ṣe fún ènìyàn;
24 Knowing that you shall receive of the Lord the reward of inheritance. Serve ye the Lord Christ.
kí ẹ mọ̀ pé lọ́wọ́ Olúwa ni ẹ̀yin ó gba èrè, nítorí ẹ̀yin ń sìn Olúwa Kristi.
25 For he that doth wrong, shall receive for that which he hath done wrongfully: and there is no respect of persons with God.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ṣe àìṣòdodo, yóò gbà á padà nítorí àìṣòdodo náà tí ó ti ṣe: kò sì ṣí ojúsàájú.
