Colossians 2
1 For I wish you to know how great a conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and as many as have not seen my face in the flesh,
Mo fẹ́ kí ẹ mọ bí mo ti ń jìjàkadì fún un yín àti fún àwọn ará Laodikea àti fún ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn mìíràn tí wọn kò ì tí ì rí mi sójú rí.
2 that their hearts may be comforted, being united in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of the understanding, to the full knowledge of the secret of the God and Father, and of the Christ,
Ohun tí mo ń béèrè lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run fún un yín nínú àdúrà mi ni pé, kí a lè mú yín lọ́kàn le, kí a sì lè so yín pọ̀ pẹ̀lú ìfẹ́ to lágbára, kí ẹ le ní àṣírí ìjìnlẹ̀ Ọlọ́run lẹ́kùnrẹ́rẹ́. Àṣírí ìjìnlẹ̀ Ọlọ́run náà ni Kristi fúnra rẹ̀.
3 in whom are all the treasures of the wisdom and the knowledge hid,
Nínú ẹni tí a fi gbogbo ìṣúra ìjìnlẹ̀ ọgbọ́n àti ìmọ̀ pamọ́ sí.
4 and this I say, that no one may deceive you with enticing words,
Mo sọ èyí fún un yín kí ẹnikẹ́ni ma ba à fi ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn mú yín ṣìnà.
5 for if even in the flesh I am absent—yet in the spirit I am with you, rejoicing and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in regard to Christ;
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé èmi kò sí i lọ́dọ̀ yín nínú ara, ṣùgbọ́n mo wà lọ́dọ̀ yín nínú ẹ̀mí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo sì ń yọ̀ láti kíyèsi ètò yín àti bí ìdúró ṣinṣin yín nínú Kristi ti rí.
6 as, then, you received Christ Jesus the LORD, walk in Him,
Nítorí náà, bí ẹ̀yin ti gba Jesu Kristi gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ̀yin máa gbé nínú rẹ̀.
7 being rooted and built up in Him, and confirmed in the faith, as you were taught—abounding in it in thanksgiving.
Ẹ fi gbòǹgbò múlẹ̀, kí a sì gbé yín ró nínú rẹ̀, kí ẹ sì fi ẹsẹ̀ múlẹ̀ nínú ìgbàgbọ́ yín, bí a ti kọ́ yín, àti kí ẹ sì máa pọ̀ nínú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọpẹ́.
8 See that no one will be carrying you away as spoil through philosophy and vain deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the rudiments of the world, and not according to Christ,
Ẹ rí dájú pé ẹnikẹ́ni kò mú yin ní ìgbèkùn pẹ̀lú ẹ̀kọ́ àròsọ àti ìmọ̀ ẹ̀tàn, èyí tí ó gbára lé ìlànà ti ènìyàn àti àgbékalẹ̀ àwọn ẹ̀mí ayé yìí tí ó yàtọ̀ sí ti Kristi.
9 because in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily,
Nítorí nínú Kristi ni ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́ ìwàláàyè Ọlọ́run gbé ní ara,
10 and you are made full in Him, who is the head of all principality and authority,
ẹ̀yin sì ní ohun gbogbo ní kíkún nínú Kristi, ẹni tí i ṣe orí fún gbogbo agbára àti àṣẹ.
11 in whom you also were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of sins of the flesh by the circumcision of the Christ,
Nínú ẹni tí a kò fi ìkọlà tí a fi ọwọ́ kọ kọ yín ní ilà, ni bíbọ ara ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀, nínú ìkọlà Kristi.
12 being buried with Him in the immersion, in which you also rose with [Him] through the faith of the working of God, who raised Him out of the dead.
Bí a ti sin yín pọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú ìtẹ̀bọmi, tí a sì ti jí yín dìde pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nípasẹ̀ ìgbàgbọ́ yín nínú agbára Ọlọ́run, ẹni tí ó jí dìde kúrò nínú òkú.
13 And you—being dead in the trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh—He made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all the trespasses,
Àti ẹ̀yin, ẹni tí ó ti kú nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín àti àìkọlà ará yín, mo ní, ẹ̀yin ni ó sì ti sọ di ààyè pọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì ti dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín jì yín;
14 having blotted out the handwriting in the ordinances that is against us, that was contrary to us, and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the Cross;
Ó sì ti pa ìwé májẹ̀mú nì rẹ́, tí ó lòdì sí wa, tí a kọ nínú òfin, èyí tí o lòdì sí wa: òun ni ó sì ti mú kúrò lójú ọ̀nà, ó sì kàn án mọ àgbélébùú.
15 having stripped the principalities and the authorities, He made a show of them openly—having triumphed over them by it.
Ó sì ti gba agbára kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ìjọba ẹ̀mí búburú àti àwọn alágbára gbogbo, ó sì ti dójútì wọn ní gbangba, bí ó ti ń yọ̀ fún ìṣẹ́gun lórí wọn.
16 Let no one, then, judge you in eating or in drinking, or in respect of a celebration, or of a new moon, or of Sabbaths,
Nítorí náà ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni ṣe ìdájọ́ yín ní ti jíjẹ, tàbí ní ti mímu, tàbí ní ti ọjọ́ àsè, tàbí oṣù tuntun, àti ọjọ́ ìsinmi.
17 which are a shadow of the coming things, but the body [is] of the Christ;
Àwọn tí í ṣe òjìji ohun tí ń bọ̀; ṣùgbọ́n ní ti òtítọ́, nínú Kristi ni àti mu wọn ṣẹ.
18 let no one deceive you of your prize, delighting in humble-mindedness and [in] worship of the messengers, intruding into the things he has not seen, being vainly puffed up by the mind of his flesh,
Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ní inú dídùn nínú ìrẹ̀lẹ̀ èké àti bíbọ àwọn angẹli lọ́ èrè yín gbà lọ́wọ́ yín, ẹni tí ń dúró lórí nǹkan wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ó ti rí, tí ó ń ṣe féfé asán nípa èrò ti ọkàn ara rẹ̀.
19 and not holding the Head, from which all the body—gathering supply through the joints and bands, and being knit together—may increase with the increase of God.
Wọn ti sọ ìdàpọ̀ wọn pẹ̀lú ẹni tí i ṣe orí nu, láti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí a ń ti ipa oríkèé àti iṣan pèsè fún gbogbo ara, ti a sì ń so ó ṣọ̀kan pọ̀, tí ó sì ń dàgbà nípa ìmísí Ọlọ́run.
20 If, then, you died with the Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as living in the world, are you subject to ordinances—
Bí ẹ̀yin bá ti kú pẹ̀lú Kristi si àwọn agbára ìlànà ayé yìí, kín ló dé tí ẹ̀yin ń tẹríba fún òfin bí ẹni pé ẹ̀yin wà nínú ayé.
21 you may not touch, nor taste, nor handle—
Má ṣe dìímú, má ṣe tọ́ ọ wò, má ṣe fi ọwọ́ bà á.
22 which are all for destruction with the using, after the commands and teachings of men,
Gbogbo èyí tí yóò ti ipa lílo run, gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin àti ẹ̀kọ́ ènìyàn?
23 which are, indeed, having a matter of wisdom in self-willed religion, and humble-mindedness, and neglecting of body—not of any value to satisfying the flesh.
Àwọn nǹkan tí ó ní àfarawé ọgbọ́n nítòótọ́, nípasẹ̀ àdábọwọ́ ìsìn, àti ìrẹ̀lẹ̀, àti ìpọ́nra-ẹni-lójú, ṣùgbọ́n tí kò ni èrè láti di ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ara ku.
