Colossians 2
1 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
Ngunapinga mmumanyanje, shinguti lajilila kutenda liengo kwa ligongo lyenunji, na kwa ligongo lya bhandunji bha ku Laodikia na kwa ligongo lya bhowe bhakanabhe monanga mmeyo bhala.
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
Ngunatenda nnei nkupinga bhatagwanje ntima na bhalundananje nkupingana, bhaumanyanje utajili gowe gwa kuimanya ukoto indu ya kweli. Nkupinga bhaimanyanje kaje ya nng'iyo gwa a Nnungu, yani a Kilishitu bhayene.
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Kwa bhenebho ishikwiiya ibhiko yowe ya lunda na lumanyio.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
Bhai, ngunakummalanjilanga genega, nkupinga mundu jojowe ananntembanje kwa malobhe ga unami, nkali ganonye.
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
Pabha, nkali nkamonanje kwa meyo, ikabheje kwa muntima puni na mmanganyanji, nguliangalala nkummonanga shinkuti tamangana ukoto, na kwiishimilika nngulupai jenunji nkulundana na a Kilishitu.
6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
Bhai, shimwaaposhelenje a Yeshu Kilishitu kubha Bhakulungwa bhenunji, bhai ntamangananje nneyo peyo nkulundana nabho.
7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Ntamangananje ukoto nkulundana na bhenebho na shengwa panani jabho, na kwiishimilika nngulupai malinga shinnjigenywenje, na mpundanje kutenda eja.
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Bhai mwiiteiganje, mundu anantembanje kwa lumanyio lwakwe lwa unami, lwa poshela kubhandu na majiganyo ga pa shilambolyo, gali nngabha ga a Kilishitu!
9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Pabha kukamilika kowe kwa a Nnungu, kwabhoneshe mwa a Kilishitu nshiilu shabho,
10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and authority:
na mmanganyanji nshipegwanga gumi gwa nng'ilimila nkulundana na bhenebho, bhali bhakulungwa bha mashili na ukulungwa gowe.
11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Nkulundana na a Kilishitu mmanganyanji nnjalwikenje, numbe nngabha kwa tagwa na bhandu, ikabheje na a Kilishitu bhayene, nkugombolwa kopoka kushiilu shangali mashili.
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Pabha, nkabhatishwanjeje mwashinkushikwanga pamo na a Kilishitu, na yuywa pamo na bhenebho kwa kulupalila mashili ga a Nnungu, bhaayushiye a Kilishitu bhakaweje.
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
Na mmanganyanji pumwalinginji nng'wilenje, kwa ligongo lya yambi yenunji na gwangajaluka gwenunji. Ikabheje nnaino a Nnungu bhashikumpanganga gumi pamo na a Kilishitu, nikutuleshelela yambi yetu yowe,
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
gubhaputile malobhe gajandikwe ga kutulugula, na ukumu jakwe nikujishoya jinapagwe kabhili, kwa kujikomela munshalabha.
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Gubhaapokonyolenje ukulungwa na mashili gabhonji bhakulungwanji na bhakwetenje mashili ga kumaoka, nikwatokomayanga palugwinjili akuno bhaliangalala pa lugwinjili lwa bhandu pa nshalabha gwa a Yeshu.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Kwa nneyo, bhai, mundu ananng'ukumulanje kwa ligongo lya shalya, eu ya papila, eu kwa ligongo lya shikukuu, eu ga mwei gwa ambi, eu ga lyubha lya pumulila.
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Pabha yeneyo ni ilanda ya indu ikwiya, ikabhe shindu ukoto, ni a Kilishitu.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
Mundu jojowe ananng'ukumulanje, alikwiitemba kwiitimalika akuno ali kwaatindibhalila ashimalaika. Mundu malinga jwenejo anakagulila agamii yakwe, alikwiitapa kwa lunda lwake lwa shigundu,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
jwene mundujo ashikwaaleka a Kilishitu bhali ntwe gwa shiilusho. Nkulongoywa na a Kilishitu, shiilu showe shinaliywa na lundanywa pamo kwa ibhalo na minanga jakwe, penepo shiilu shinakula, malinga shibhapinga a Nnungu.
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
Bhai, ibhaga mmanganyanji mwashinkuwanganga pamo na a Kilishitu na gombolwa mmashili ga bhaatagwala bha pa shilambolyo, bhai, kwa nndi tama kabhili mbuti bhandu bha pa shilambolyo, nnibhishilwanga ibhagu?
21 ( Touch not; taste not; handle not;
“Eti nnakamulanje ashi, eu nnapayanje ashi, eu nnakwayanje ashi!”
22 Which all are to perish with the using; ) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
Gene gowego ni ga indu ya angabhanika, gali malajilo na majiganyo ga bhandunjipe.
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
Yeneyo puibhoneka mbuti ya lunda kwa namuna ja tindibhalila jimwiibhishilenje mwashaayenenji, nkwiitimalika na nkushipoteka shiilu na ilokoli yakwe, ikabheje ikapwaa shindu nkulekaya ilokoli ya shiilu.
