Colossians 3

1 If, then, you were raised with the Christ, seek the things above, where the Christ is, seated on the right hand of God;

ει ουν συνηγερθητε τω χριστω τα ανω ζητειτε ου ο χριστος εστιν εν δεξια του θεου καθημενος

2 mind the things above, not the things on the earth,

τα ανω φρονειτε μη τα επι της γης

3 for you died, and your life has been hid with the Christ in God;

απεθανετε γαρ και η ζωη υμων κεκρυπται συν τω χριστω εν τω θεω

4 when the Christ—our life—may have appeared, then we will also appear with Him in glory.

οταν ο χριστος φανερωθη η ζωη ημων τοτε και υμεις συν αυτω φανερωθησεσθε εν δοξη

5 Put to death, then, your members that [are] on the earth—whoredom, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and the covetousness, which is idolatry—

νεκρωσατε ουν τα μελη υμων τα επι της γης πορνειαν ακαθαρσιαν παθος επιθυμιαν κακην και την πλεονεξιαν ητις εστιν ειδωλολατρεια

6 because of which things comes the anger of God on the sons of the disobedience,

δι α ερχεται η οργη του θεου επι τους υιους της απειθειας

7 in which you also—you once walked, when you lived in them;

εν οις και υμεις περιεπατησατε ποτε οτε εζητε εν αυτοις

8 but now put off, even you, the whole—anger, wrath, malice, slander, filthy talking—out of your mouth.

νυνι δε αποθεσθε και υμεις τα παντα οργην θυμον κακιαν βλασφημιαν αισχρολογιαν εκ του στοματος υμων

9 Do not lie to one another, having put off the old man with his practices,

μη ψευδεσθε εις αλληλους απεκδυσαμενοι τον παλαιον ανθρωπον συν ταις πραξεσιν αυτου

10 and having put on the new, which is renewed in regard to knowledge, after the image of Him who created him,

και ενδυσαμενοι τον νεον τον ανακαινουμενον εις επιγνωσιν κατ εικονα του κτισαντος αυτον

11 where there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, servant, freeman, but Christ [is] all and in all.

οπου ουκ ενι ελλην και ιουδαιος περιτομη και ακροβυστια βαρβαρος σκυθης δουλος ελευθερος αλλα τα παντα και εν πασιν χριστος

12 Put on, therefore, as chosen ones of God, holy and beloved, yearnings of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering,

ενδυσασθε ουν ως εκλεκτοι του θεου αγιοι και ηγαπημενοι σπλαγχνα οικτιρμου χρηστοτητα ταπεινοφροσυνην πραοτητα μακροθυμιαν

13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if anyone may have a quarrel with anyone, as the Christ also forgave you—so also you;

ανεχομενοι αλληλων και χαριζομενοι εαυτοις εαν τις προς τινα εχη μομφην καθως και ο χριστος εχαρισατο υμιν ουτως και υμεις

14 and above all these things, [have] love, which is a bond of the perfection,

επι πασιν δε τουτοις την αγαπην ητις εστιν συνδεσμος της τελειοτητος

15 and let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which you were also called in one body, and become thankful.

και η ειρηνη του θεου βραβευετω εν ταις καρδιαις υμων εις ην και εκληθητε εν ενι σωματι και ευχαριστοι γινεσθε

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing each other, in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, in grace singing in your hearts to the LORD;

ο λογος του χριστου ενοικειτω εν υμιν πλουσιως εν παση σοφια διδασκοντες και νουθετουντες εαυτους ψαλμοις και υμνοις και ωδαις πνευματικαις εν χαριτι αδοντες εν τη καρδια υμων τω κυριω

17 and all, whatever you may do in word or in work, [do] all things in the Name of the Lord Jesus—giving thanks to the God and Father, through Him.

και παν ο τι αν ποιητε εν λογω η εν εργω παντα εν ονοματι κυριου ιησου ευχαριστουντες τω θεω και πατρι δι αυτου

18 The wives: be subject to your own husbands, as is fit in the LORD;

αι γυναικες υποτασσεσθε τοις ιδιοις ανδρασιν ως ανηκεν εν κυριω

19 the husbands: love your wives, and do not be bitter with them;

οι ανδρες αγαπατε τας γυναικας και μη πικραινεσθε προς αυτας

20 the children: obey the parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the LORD;

τα τεκνα υπακουετε τοις γονευσιν κατα παντα τουτο γαρ εστιν ευαρεστον εν κυριω

21 the fathers: do not distress your children, lest they be discouraged;

οι πατερες μη ερεθιζετε τα τεκνα υμων ινα μη αθυμωσιν

22 the servants: obey those who are masters in all things according to the flesh, not in eye-service as men-pleasers, but in simplicity of heart, fearing God;

οι δουλοι υπακουετε κατα παντα τοις κατα σαρκα κυριοις μη εν οφθαλμοδουλειαις ως ανθρωπαρεσκοι αλλ εν απλοτητι καρδιας φοβουμενοι τον θεον

23 and all, whatever you may do—out of soul work—as to the LORD, and not to men,

και παν ο τι εαν ποιητε εκ ψυχης εργαζεσθε ως τω κυριω και ουκ ανθρωποις

24 having known that you will receive the repayment of the inheritance from the LORD—for you serve the LORD Christ;

ειδοτες οτι απο κυριου ληψεσθε την ανταποδοσιν της κληρονομιας τω γαρ κυριω χριστω δουλευετε

25 and he who is doing unrighteously will receive what he did unrighteously, and there is no favor by appearance.

ο δε αδικων κομιειται ο ηδικησεν και ουκ εστιν προσωποληψια
