Colossians 3
1 If yee then bee risen with Christ, seeke those thinges which are aboue, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.
Nga bwe mwazuukirira awamu ne Kristo, munoonyenga ebintu ebiri mu ggulu, Kristo gy’atudde ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda.
2 Set your affections on things which are aboue, and not on things which are on the earth.
Mulowoozenga ku ebyo ebiri mu ggulu, so si ebiri ku nsi,
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
kubanga mwafa era n’obulamu bwammwe bukwekeddwa mu Kristo mu Katonda.
4 When Christ which is our life, shall appeare, then shall ye also appeare with him in glory.
Kristo atuwa obulamu, bw’alirabisibwa, nammwe ne mulyoka mulabisibwa wamu naye mu kitiibwa.
5 Mortifie therefore your members which are on the earth, fornication, vncleannes, the inordinate affection, euill concupiscence, and couetousnes which is idolatrie.
Noolwekyo temufugibwa bikolwa byammwe eby’omubiri, byonna mubitte. Gamba nga: obwenzi, n’obutali bulongoofu, n’obukaba, n’okwegomba okw’ensonyi, n’okuyaayaana; kye kimu n’okusinza bakatonda abalala.
6 For the which things sake ye wrath of God commeth on the children of disobedience.
Kubanga obusungu bwa Katonda bubuubuukira ku baana ab’obujeemu abakola ebintu ebyo,
7 Wherein ye also walked once, when ye liued in them.
ate nga nammwe edda mwe mwatambuliranga, bwe mwabikolanga.
8 But now put ye away euen all these things, wrath, anger, maliciousnes, cursed speaking, filthie speaking, out of your mouth.
Naye kaakano mweyambulemu ebintu ebyo byonna; obusungu, n’ekiruyi, n’ettima, n’okuvvoola, n’okunyumya emboozi ey’ensonyi.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that yee haue put off the olde man with his workes,
Temulimbagananga kubanga mweyambulako omuntu ow’edda n’ebikolwa bye,
10 And haue put on the newe, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him,
ne mwambazibwa omuntu omuggya, nga mufuulibwa abaggya mu kifaananyi ky’oyo eyamutonda, ate ne mu kweyongera okumutegeera.
11 Where is neither Grecian nor Iewe, circumcision nor vncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond, free: But Christ is all, and in all things.
Olwo tewaba kwawulamu, Muyonaani na Muyudaaya, eyakomolebwa n’ataakomolebwa, Omunnaggwanga, n’Omusukusi, omuddu n’ow’eddembe, wabula Kristo ye byonna, era abeera mu ffe ffenna.
12 Now therfore as the elect of God holy and beloued, put on the bowels of mercies, kindnesse, humblenesse of minde, meekenesse, long suffering:
Ng’abalonde ba Katonda abatukuvu era abaagalwa, mwambalenga omwoyo ogusaasira, n’ekisa, n’obuwombeefu, n’obuteefu, n’obugumiikiriza.
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiuing one another, if any man haue a quarel to another: euen as Christ forgaue, euen so doe ye.
Bwe wabangawo omuntu yenna alina ensonga ku munne, muzibiikirizaganenga, era musonyiwaganenga. Nga Mukama waffe bwe yabasonyiwa era nammwe musonyiwaganenga.
14 And aboue all these thinges put on loue, which is the bond of perfectnes.
Okwagala kwe kusinga ebintu ebirala byonna, kubanga kwe kunyweza ebintu byonna.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which ye are called in one body, and be ye thankfull.
N’emirembe gya Kristo gifugenga emitima gyammwe, kubanga emirembe egyo gye mwayitirwa mu mubiri ogumu; era mwebazenga.
16 Let the worde of Christ dwell in you plenteously in all wisdome, teaching and admonishing your owne selues, in Psalmes, and hymnes, and spirituall songs, singing with a grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Ekigambo kya Kristo mu bugagga bwakyo kibeerenga mu mmwe, mu magezi gonna nga muyigirizagananga era nga mubuuliragananga mwekka na mwekka mu Zabbuli, ne mu nnyimba, ne mu biyiiye eby’omwoyo nga muyimbira Katonda nga mujjudde ekisa mu mitima gyammwe.
17 And whatsoeuer ye shall doe, in worde or deede, doe all in the Name of the Lord Iesus, giuing thankes to God euen the Father by him.
Na buli kye munaakolanga mu kigambo oba mu kikolwa, byonna mubikolenga mu linnya lya Mukama waffe Yesu nga muyita mu ye okwebaza Katonda Kitaffe.
18 Wiues, submit your selues vnto your husbands, as it is comely in the Lord.
Abakazi, muwulirenga babbammwe kubanga ekyo kye kituufu mu Mukama waffe.
19 Husbands, loue your wiues, and be not bitter vnto them.
Nammwe abaami mwagalenga bakyala bammwe era mubakwasenga kisa so si bukambwe.
20 Children, obey your parents in all thing for that is well pleasing vnto the Lord.
Abaana, muwulirenga bazadde bammwe mu bintu byonna kubanga ekyo ky’ekisanyusa Katonda.
21 Fathers, prouoke not your children to anger, least they be discouraged.
Nammwe bakitaabwe temunyiizanga baana bammwe baleme okuddirira mu mwoyo.
22 Seruants, be obedient vnto them that are your masters according to the flesh, in all things, not with eye seruice as men pleasers, but in singlenes of heart, fearing God.
Abaddu, muwulirenga bakama bammwe ab’omu nsi mu bintu byonna, si kubasanyusa lwa kubanga babalaba, naye mubagonderenga n’omutima ogutaliimu bukuusa, nga mutya Mukama waffe.
23 And whatsoeuer ye doe, doe it heartily, as to the Lord, and not to men,
Buli kye mukola mukikole ng’abakolera Mukama waffe so si abantu,
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receiue the reward of the inheritance: for ye serue the Lord Christ.
nga mumanyi nga mulifuna empeera yammwe ey’omugabo gwammwe okuva eri Mukama waffe. Muweerezenga Mukama Kristo;
25 But he that doeth wrong, shall receiue for the wrong that he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
kubanga ayonoona, alisasulwa olw’ebikolwa bye, so tewaliba kusosola mu bantu.
