Colossians 4
1 Masters, deal justly and fairly with your slaves, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
Mwagosi, fumiwa sontezi enongwazyalizyali nenyiza. Mmenye aje mnawo ogosi humwanya.
2 Be unwearied in prayer, and keep awake in it when giving thanks.
Mwendelele abhe lyoli huputo. Khali masa hwelyo nasombezye.
3 Keep on praying for me, too, that God may open for me a door of utterance to speak the secret truth of Christ, for which I am a prisoner.
Putuje pamo huaji yetu nantele, ena nantele Ongolobhi aigule alyango ogwizulyakwa, ayanji esili zwalyoli eya Kilisti. Hunongwa ene empinyilwe amanyolo.
4 Pray that I may unfold it as I ought to speak.
Ejiga mputaje endibheshe pawalele, nashi sehwaziwa ayaje.
5 Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward those without, buying up your opportunities.
Bhalaga hunshinshi hwa bhala bhabhali ohohoze, abhalenalinali nesiku.
6 Let your speech be always gracious, with a savor of salt, and learn how to give every man a fitting answer.
Enangwa zyenyu zibhene wene esiku zyoti, nantele gakhole omwoni esiku zyoti, emmanye she hwanzwa ahugalule omtu.
7 Tychicus, my beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow slave in the Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me.
Hunongwazye zinazaane, O Tikiko adagabhombe gaga manyeshi hulimwi. Omwene holo mwe obhambombo umwinza no tumwi owa mwetu tenti hwa Gosi.
8 I have sent him with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, one of your own number, for this very purpose, to let you know how I am, and to cheer your hearts.
Ehutu mahalli mwe hweli nkamumanye enongwa huliti ate nantele aje mmanye abhapele omwoyo.
9 They will inform you of all that goes on here.
Ebatumabhoti na Onesimo, oholo wetu oganwe omwiza omo owenyu, bhazabhabhule kila mtu hahafule epa.
10 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, salutes you, and Marcus, the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, make him welcome), and Jesus surnamed Justas.
Aristarko, opinye owamwetu, abhalamha, mweti no Maliko ovyala wakwa Barnaba yamwahambilile alongozi afume hwa mwene, “Nkashele aiyenza hulimwi mwambilili,”
11 These are my only fellow workers for the kingdom of God, belonging to the circumcision, who have been any comfort to me.
Nantele o Yesu yabhaiga Yusto bhabhene bha tahilwe bhabho mbambombo bhamwetu hwa mwene wa Ngolobhi. Bhali luzizyo hulini.
12 Epaphras, one of yourselves, salutes you, a slave of Christ who is always agonizing for you in his prayers, that you may stand firm, mature, and fully assured in all the will of God.
Epafra abhalamuha. Omwene alipaka nate nantele tumwiwa Kilisti Yesu. Omwene abhomba nali nali huputo nantele nkawezye ahwemelele shishiza ahakikizye owiza ashelele amiza gote aga Ngolobhi.
13 For I can testify to his deep interest in you and in those in Laodicea and Hierapolis.
Hwahuje ejelezyezye, aeje abhomba embombo nalinli hwajili yenyu hwabhala bhabhali hula Laodekia, na hwebho bhabhali Hierapoli.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, salutes you, and so does Demas.
Luku ola oganga ya genwe nu Dema bhabhalamuha.
15 Salute the brothers in Laodicea; Nympha also, and the church which meets at her house.
Bhabhalamuha aholo bhane bhabhaahwo Laodekia, na Nimfa, neshi bhiza shila sha shili ohwo munyumba yakwe.
16 And when this letter has been read to you, see that it is read also in the church of Laodiceans, and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.
Ikalata eli palyaibha limanyelye mwebho namwe emanyilwe hwi bhaza elya Laodekia.
17 And tell Archippas to take heed to the ministry which he has received in the Lord, that he may fulfill it.
Yaga hawa Arkipo, “enya ala mbambo ela yamwa hambile ashelelee Wagosi aje onwaziwa amalezye.”
18 I, Paul, add this farewell in my own handwriting. Do not forget these chains of mine. Grace be with you.
Idamuhoene eu hu makhono gane nene - Paulo. Gakomboshi amanyolo gane. Owene ubhenamwe.
