Colossians 4
1 The masters: give that which is righteous and equal to the servants, having known that you also have a Master in the heavens.
Mmwe bakama b’abaddu, mubenga benkanya eri abaddu bammwe nga mumanyi nti nammwe mulina Mukama wammwe mu ggulu.
2 Continue in the prayer, watching in it in thanksgiving,
Munyiikirirenga mu kusaba, nga temuddirira, wabula nga mwebazanga
3 also praying for us at the same time, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Christ, because of which I have also been bound,
nga mwenna awamu mutusabira Katonda atuggulirewo oluggi okubuulira Enjiri, n’okutegeeza ekyama kya Kristo, kye nasibirwa.
4 that I may reveal it, as it is necessary for me to speak.
Ndyoke njolesenga ekyama ekyo nga bwe kiŋŋwanidde okukyogerako.
5 Walk in wisdom toward those outside, redeeming the time,
Abo abatannakkiriza mutambulenga nabo n’amagezi, nga mukozesa bulungi ebiseera bye mulina.
6 your word always being seasoned with salt in grace—to know how it is necessary for you to answer each one.
Enjogera yammwe ebeerenga ya kisa, era ng’enoga omunnyo, mulyoke mumanye eky’okwanukulanga buli muntu yenna.
7 Tychicus will make known to you all the things concerning me—the beloved brother, and faithful servant, and fellow-servant in the LORD—
Tukiko owooluganda omwagalwa era omuweereza omwesigwa era muddu munnaffe mu Mukama waffe alibategeeza ebinfaako byonna.
8 whom I sent to you for this very thing, that he might know the things concerning you, and might comfort your hearts,
Kyenva mmutuma gye muli mulyoke mumanye ebitufaako, era abazzeemu n’amaanyi,
9 with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is of you; they will make known to you all things that [are] here.
awamu ne Onesimo owooluganda omwagalwa era omwesigwa, omu ku b’ewammwe; balibategeeza byonna ebifa eno.
10 Aristarchus greets you, my fellow-captive, and Marcus, the nephew of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commands—if he may come to you, receive him),
Alisutaluuko, musibe munnange, ne Makko omujjwa wa Balunabba, gwe baabagambako nti bw’aliba ng’aze gye muli mumusembezanga, babatumidde;
11 and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of circumcision: these [are the] only fellow-workers for the Kingdom of God who become a comfort to me.
ne Yesu ayitibwa Yusito abalamusizza. Abo be Bayudaaya, bakozi bannange bokka mu bwakabaka bwa Katonda, abaanzizaamu amaanyi.
12 Epaphras greets you, who [is] of you, a servant of Christ, always striving for you in the prayers, that you may stand perfect and made full in all the will of God,
Epafula ow’ewammwe, omuddu wa Kristo Yesu, afuba bulijjo ku lwammwe okubasabira, mulyoke muyimirirenga nga munywedde mu kukkiriza era nga mutegeereranga ddala mu byonna Katonda by’ayagala, abalamusizza.
13 for I testify to him that he has much zeal for you, and those in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.
Kubanga mmuweera obujulirwa, nga bw’afuba ennyo ku lwammwe, n’ab’omu Lawodikiya, n’ab’omu Kiyerapoli.
14 Lucas greets you, the beloved physician, and Demas;
Lukka, omusawo omwagalwa ne Dema, babalamusizza.
15 those in Laodicea greet you—brothers, and Nymphas, and the assembly in his house;
Mulamuse abooluganda ab’omu Lawodikiya, ne Nunfa, n’ekkanisa ekuŋŋaanira mu nnyumba ye.
16 and when the letter may be read with you, cause that it may also be read in the assembly of the Laodiceans, and the [letter] from Laodicea that you also may read;
Ebbaluwa eno bw’emalanga okusomebwa mu mmwe, mulabe nti esomerwa n’ab’ekkanisa y’omu Lawodikiya, era nammwe musome ebbaluwa eriva e Lawodikiya.
17 and say to Archippus, “See to the ministry that you received in the LORD, that you may fulfill it.”
Era mugambe Alukipo nti, “Ssaayo omwoyo ku kuweereza kwe waweebwa mu Mukama waffe, okutuukirize.”
18 The salutation [is] by my hand, Paul. Remember my bonds. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
Nze Pawulo nzennyini nze mpandiise okulamusa kuno. Munzijukirenga mu busibe bwange. Ekisa kibeerenga nammwe.
