Colossians 2
1 FOR I wish you to know how great a struggle I sustain for you, and those at Laodicea, and as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
Kwa kuj'ha nilonda mmanyai jinsi ambagho njele ni mal'ombosi gha mahele kwa ndabha j'hinu, kwa bhoha bhabhayele laokidia na kwa bhoha ambabho bhabhaloli Lepi pa mihu pangumu m'mbele.
2 that their hearts may be comforted, firmly united together in love, and unto all riches of full assurance of understanding, in the knowledge of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
Nibhomba mbombo ili ndebha mitema ghya bhene ghibhwesiayi kufanjibhwa kwa kulatibhwa pamonga muluganu ni mu bhutajiri bhuoha, bhwingi bhwa bhuhakika kamili bhwa maarifa, katika kuimanya siri j'ha bhukweli j'ha k'yara, ambaj'he ndo krsitu.
3 in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Kwa muene hazina syoha sya hekima ni maarifa sifighilihu.
4 Now this I say, lest any man pervert you with specious discourse.
Nijhobha naha ili ndabha munu j'hej'hioha y'ola alihioli akabhabhombela hila kwa hotuba j'hiyele ni bhushawishi.
5 For though I am absent from you in person, yet I am present with you in spirit, rejoicing and beholding your regular order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
Na ingawa njele dumu pamonga namu mumb'ele, lakini njele namu mu roho. Nibekuhobhoka kulola bhutaratibu bhwinu unofu nighofu j'ha imani j'hinu mu kristu.
6 As therefore ye have received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in him:
Kame kyamwampokelili Kristu Bwana, mugendai mwa apeti muene.
7 rooted and built up on him, and confirmed in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Mukomalisibhwayi Kama muene, mjengibhwayi Kama muene mkomalisibhyapayi mu imani Kama tu kyammanyisihbu, ni kufungibhwamu shukrurani j'himehele.
8 Beware that no man make a prey of you by means of philosophy and vain delusion, after the tradition of men, after the principles of the world, and not after Christ:
Mlangai j'ha kuj'ha munu j'hej'hioha ij'ola asebhakamulikwa falsafa ni malobhi mat'hop'ho gha bhudeli kulengana ni mapokelelu gha bhanaolamu, kulengana na kanuni sya kidunia, na sio kulengana ni Kristu.
9 for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily;
Kwa kuj'ha kwa muene bhukamilifu bhuobha bhwa k'yara bhwitama mu m'mb'ele.
10 and ye are complete in him, who is the head of all principality and power:
Namu mmemesibhu ni muene. Muene ndo mutu bhwa kila bhuweza ni mamlaka.
11 in whom also ye have been circumcised with the circumcision not made with hands, by the putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, through the circumcision of Christ:
Kwa muene pia mwatahinibhu kwa tohara j'ha j'hitwanyibhu lepi ni bhana damu katika kubhosibhwa m'mb'ele bhwa nyama lakini ni mu tohara j'ha Kiristu.
12 buried with him in baptism, in which also ye have been raised up together with him by faith, the energy of God, who raised him from the dead.
Mwasyelibhu pamonga ni muene, mu bhubatatizo. Ni kwa NJ'ela j'ha imani mwa muene mwafumulibhu kwa bhuweza bhwa bhwa K'yara, j'ha amfufuwili kulioma kwa bhafu.
13 And you, who were dead in sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened with him, freely forgiving you all trespasses;
Na pamj'hele mfawili mu mmakosa ghinu ni kubela kutahiriwa mu mibhele gha muenga, abhefwanyili hai pamonga ni muene ni kutusamela makosa ghitu ghoha.
14 and hath blotted out the handwriting in ordinances that was against us, which was the obstacle to us, and took it from the midst, nailing it to the cross;
Afutili kumbukumbu j'ha madeni ghaghayandikibhu, ni taratibu syasyaj'hele kinyume natu. Abhosili ghoha ni kuj'hikomelela pa n'salaba.
15 spoiling principalities and powers, he exposed them to view openly, triumphing over them on it.
Asibhosili nghofu ni mamlaka. Aghebhikili bhuwazi ni kughabhomba kuj'ha sherehe j'ha ushindi kwa nj'hela j'ha nsalaba bhwake.
16 Let no man therefore judge you concerning what you eat, or what you drink, or the observance of a feast, or new moon, or the sabbaths;
Henu, munu j'hej'hioha y'ola asbhahukumu muenga mu kulya au mu kunywa, au kuhusu ligono lya sikukuu au mwezi mpya au ligono lya sabato.
17 which are merely shadows of things to come: but the body is Christ’s.
e'fe ndo fivuli fya Mambo gha ghihiola, lakini kiini ndo Kristu.
18 Let no man juggle you out of your prize, voluntary in his humility and the worship of angels, intruding into things which he never saw, vainly puffed up by his carnal imagination;
Munu j'haibhomba ghoha asinyakibhu tuzo j'ha muene kwa kutaman bhunyenyekevu ni kwa kuabudu malaika. Munu gha jinsi ej'hu ij'hingela mu mambo gha aghabhuene ni kushawishibhwa ni mabhuwazo ghake gha m'mb'ele.
19 and not firmly attached to the head, from which the whole body, by joints and ligaments, harmoniously adjusted and closely compacted, increaseth with increase from God.
Muene akakikamulila lepi mutu. Ni kuhoma mu mutu kwamba m'mb'ele bhuoha kup'etela fiungo fya muene ni mafupa ghil'ong'eka ni kukamulisibhwa kwa pamonga; ni kuk'hola kwa ak'holaji bhwa wipisilibhwa ni k'yara.
20 If then ye have been dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye dogmatically taught,
Ikayelayi mwa fuwili pamonga ni Kristu kwa tabia sya dunia, mbone mwitama Kama mwibhwajibika kwa dunia:
21 eat not, nor talk, nor touch,
“Msikamuli, bhwala kubhonja, bhwala kugusa”?
22 (all which things tend to corruption by abuse) according to the injunctions and doctrines of men?
Aghaghoha ghaamuribhu kwa ndabha j'ha bhuharibifu bhwa bhwihida ni matumizi, Kul'hengana ni maelekezo ni mafundisu gha bhanadamu.
23 Which things indeed hold forth an appearance of wisdom in will-worship, and humility, and bodily mortification, though not of any value, but a gratification to the flesh.
Sheria e'se iyele nihekima sya dini syasitengenesibhu kwa ubinafsi ni bhunyenyekevu ni mateso gha m'mb'ele. Lakini sij'hele lepi ni thamani dhidi j'ha tamaa sya m'mb'ele.
