< Colossians 1 >
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother,
Pool Rangte thungpun jun ih Jisu Kristo kaamwah ih danjeeta nyia seng phono Timothi jiin nawa arah le ah—
2 to the holy ones in Colossae, and to the faithful brothers in Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Kolosi nawa Rangte mina, marah Kristo damdi roong roopte seng mongnook joon awaan loong asuh: Seng loong wah Rangte ih sen suh tenthet nyia semroongroong ah toom kohan.
3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you,
Seng ih sen suh rangsoom koh idi Teesu Jisu Kristo Wah, seng Rangte suh saarookwih lakookmi kali ih.
4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that [is] to all the holy ones,
Tumeah seng ih, sen loong Jisu Kristo suh tuungmaang anrah nyia Rangte mina loong damdi minchan ih tongtha an rah ejap chaat etti.
5 because of the hope that is laid up for you in the heavens, which you heard of beforehand by the word of the truth of the good news,
Maatokdi sen jiinni amiisak tiit nyia Ruurang Ese ah phang thok taha adi, sen ih laalom thaang ah echojih eje ih chaattan. Erah thoih sen hanpi nyia minchan ah sen marah suh laalom lan erah di jeela, eno erah rangmong ni sen suh punpiipi ih banthiin kohalan.
6 which has come to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which you heard, and knew the grace of God in truth,
Rangte tiitkhaap adi romseetam ah banje ruh ela, Heh minchan ah ephang di sengdung ni japchaat ano amiimi boh angka ih jattan ah likhiik mongrep ni jaatjaang ruh ih kala.
7 as you also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful servant of the Christ for you,
Sen ih Rangte minchan ah Kristo laksuh seng loong dakbi ih mootkaatte, seng joonwah Epapras jiinko nawa japchaat tan.
8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
Heh ih sen suh Esa Chiiala ih minchan tumjaat kotahan erah tiit ah baat et tahe.
9 Because of this, we also, from the day in which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that you may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
Erah raangtaan ih seng ih sen tiit japchaatti dowa ih sen suh saarookwih rangsoom kohi. Rangte thung atak jun ih ejat esam toom ang an nyia jaatrep doh mongwah maakwah nyia thungse takmi ah Esa Chiiala ih toom kohan ih seng ih Rangte dowa suhi.
10 to walk worthily of the LORD, pleasing in all, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God,
Eno ba, sen ah Teesu ih jamha jun doh tongsong an nyia saarookwih heh tenroonjih ih re an. Sen roidong doh jaatrep eseejih loong ah sen reeraang pakna nah dong tiikngook anrah je ah, erah dam ih sen ah Rangte thung atak jun doh hak an.
11 in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy.
Sen loong asuh hechaan hephaan nah rongkopkop tah apah toom kohan, eno ba sen ih jaatrep ah ese lam ih ejen naan et an. Eno Rangte suh tenroon lam ih lakookmi li an, tumeah Rangte ih heh mina loong raangtaan ih weephaak hasong ban thiinha adi sen uh ejen roong chowang ejih ih hoonkoh halan.
12 Giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us for the participation of the inheritance of the holy ones in the light,
13 who rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of His love,
Heh ih seng ah laamang chaan aphaan ih pan tahe dowa dok pang heeno, heh Sah hasong adi punpiipi ih thoksiit hali,
14 in whom we have the redemption [[through His blood]], the forgiveness of sins,
heh sih janhaatta thoi ih ba seng ah pongwan angli, erah langla seng rangdah loong ah biin anaan hali.
15 who is the image of the invisible God, firstborn of all creation,
Kristo ah miktup di mik ih latupke Rangte ah likhiik. Heh ah miwah Sah phangkhothoon ih tup arah, jaatrep dongsiitta dowa o nang ih uh elongthoon.
16 because all things were created in Him, those in the heavens, and those on the earth, those visible, and those invisible, whether thrones, whether lordships, whether principalities, whether authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him,
Tumeah, heh dowa ih ba Rangte ih rang nyia hah dowa jaatrep ah dongsiitta, miktup nyia mik ih latupke hukkhaak loong ah dongsiit eta, erah damdi chiilala chaan aphaan loong, teesu loong, phansiitte loong nyia ngoong awang loong ah dongsiitta. Rangte ih arah mongrep ah heh dowa ih nyia heh raangtaan ih dongsiitta.
17 and He is before all, and all things have consisted in Him.
Kristo ah jaatrep hukkhaak loong maang dong di dook eje angta, eno heh dowa ih ba jaatrep ah phanjangjang ih marah doh angtheng ah erah di dong hoonta.
18 And He is the head of the body—the Assembly—who is a beginning, a firstborn out of the dead, that He might become first in all [things] Himself,
Kristo ah heteewah sak adi khoroopthoon angta, erah ah Chaas; heh ah sakpuh asuh roidong kotte. Heh ah phangkhothoon ih tup arah Sah phokhoh, tek nawa ngaakthingte warah ah, erah thoih ih jaatrep hukkhaak nganah heh ju ba ngakhothoon angjih.
19 because all the fullness was pleased to dwell in Him,
Tumeah heh Sah rah Rangte dang ajang likhiik angtheng ih, Rangte heteewah kaanthot jun ih angta.
20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself—having made peace through the blood of His Cross—through Him, whether the things on the earth, whether the things in the heavens.
Erah lidi, Rangte ih mongrep thoontang ah heh teewah jiinko heh Sah jun ih ngaak siitwan suh kaanthotta. Rangte ih heh Sah ah semroongroong raangtaan ih bangphak ni heh sih janhaat thuk ano rangmong nyia hatoh nawa jaatrep loong ah heh jiinko ih ngaaksiit rumta.
21 And you—once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now He reconciled,
Pootsiit bah sen loong ah Rangte piiara ang anno heh jiin nawa haloot ni angtan, tumeah sen ih ethih tenthun nyia ethih reeraang re thoidi ah.
22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before Himself,
Enoothong amadi, hansi ni heh Sah ah tek haat thoi ba, Rangte ih heh joonte ih hoon halan, tumeah heh ih sen ah heh jiinnah esa, saachamcham, nyia emoong muh, ih ngaaksiit suh thun halan.
23 if you also remain in the faith, being founded and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the good news, which you heard, which was preached in all the creation that [is] under Heaven, of which I, Paul, became a servant.
Erah thoih sen ah, rongkopkop nyia amiisak tuungmaang nah ban tongruh jaatjaat ejih, eno sen ih ruurangese japchaat han dowa ih sen teeteewah erah laalom lan dowa lakah lengli theng ih tong an. Erah ah juuba Rangte tiitkhaap, ngah Pool, heh laksuh ih hoonlang—arah Rangte tiit ah mongrep noongrepwih ni jaatjaang tumbaat kaatte wah ah.
24 I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up the things lacking of the tribulations of the Christ in my flesh for His body, which is the Assembly,
Amadi, ngah sen raangtaan ih chamnaang lang asuh eroon elang, tumeah, ngah hansi ni chamnaang lang ah langla, Jisu Kristo ih heh Sakpuh, Chaas, ah raangtaan ih mathan we boot chamjih angta rah ngah ih roongthoon hui hang.
25 of which I became a servant according to the dispensation of God, that was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,
Ngah ah Rangte ih Chaas laksuh ih hoon halang, arah mootkaat ah sen loong ese raangtaan ih moh thuk halang. Arah mootkaat ah langla heh tiitkhaap ah laanlang ruh ih tumbaat jih,
26 the secret that has been hid from the ages and from the generations, but now was revealed to His holy ones, (aiōn )
husah tiitkhaap teewah dowa ih dook mina roirep suh labaat thang ih huthiinta rah, heh mina loong suh amadi dongjat thuk ha. (aiōn )
27 to whom God willed to make known what [is] the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations—which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,
Rangte kaankoong ah langla heh mina loong suh husah tiitkhaap ah jatthuk suh angta, erah husah tiit ah rapne changteng tiit nyia chaan aphaan tiit heh mina loongtang raang ih angta. Eno Kristo sen damdi ang hala ajuuba husah tiit, erah langla sen ah Rangte chaan aphaan adoh roong chophaak an.
28 whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus,
Erah thoih seng ih Kristo tiit ah mirep suh tumbaat hi. Seng ih hethung hetak jun ih heh tiit ah choophaan baat hi nyia nyootsoot hi, warep ah Rangte pandoh thungsek taklek Kristo damdoh roop lam ih thoksiit suh ah.
29 for which I also labor, striving according to His working that is working in me in power.
Erah jen re suh ngaatah ngaapah Kristo ih mathan kohalang erathan ih sapreelang nyia chamnaang lang, eno erah chaan aphaan nawa ih juuba nga roidong ni moh ra hala.
