< Colossians 3 >
1 If then you were raised together with Meshikha, seek the things that are above, where Meshikha is, seated on the right hand of God.
Igitur, si consurrexistis cum Christo: quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in dextera Dei sedens:
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
quæ sursum sunt sapite, non quæ super terram.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Meshikha in God.
Mortui enim estis, et vita vestra est abscondita cum Christo in Deo.
4 When Meshikha, your life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
Cum Christus apparuerit, vita vestra: tunc et vos apparebitis cum ipso in gloria.
5 Put to death, therefore, whatever is worldly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
Mortificate ergo membra vestra, quæ sunt super terram: fornicationem, immunditiam, libidinem, concupiscentiam malam, et avaritiam, quæ est simulacrorum servitus:
6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the children of disobedience.
propter quæ venit ira Dei super filios incredulitatis:
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;
in quibus et vos ambulastis aliquando, cum viveretis in illis.
8 but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
Nunc autem deponite et vos omnia: iram, indignationem, malitiam, blasphemiam, turpem sermonem de ore vestro.
9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices,
Nolite mentiri invicem, expoliantes vos veterem hominem cum actibus suis,
10 and have put on the new self, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
et induentes novum eum, qui renovatur in agnitionem secundum imaginem ejus qui creavit illum:
11 where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, freeman; but Meshikha is all, and in all.
ubi non est gentilis et Judæus, circumcisio et præputium, Barbarus et Scytha, servus et liber: sed omnia, et in omnibus Christus.
12 Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, gentleness, humility, and patience;
Induite vos ergo, sicut electi Dei, sancti, et dilecti, viscera misericordiæ, benignitatem, humilitatem, modestiam, patientiam:
13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as the Lord forgave you, so you also do.
supportantes invicem, et donantes vobismetipsis si quis adversus aliquem habet querelam: sicut et Dominus donavit vobis, ita et vos.
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
Super omnia autem hæc, caritatem habete, quod est vinculum perfectionis:
15 And let the peace of Meshikha rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
et pax Christi exsultet in cordibus vestris, in qua et vocati estis in uno corpore: et grati estote.
16 Let the word of Meshikha dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to God.
Verbum Christi habitet in vobis abundanter, in omni sapientia, docentes, et commonentes vosmetipsos, psalmis, hymnis, et canticis spiritualibus, in gratia cantantes in cordibus vestris Deo.
17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Yeshua, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.
Omne, quodcumque facitis in verbo aut in opere, omnia in nomine Domini Jesu Christi, gratias agentes Deo et Patri per ipsum.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Mulieres, subditæ estote viris, sicut oportet, in Domino.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and do not be bitter against them.
Viri, diligite uxores vestras, et nolite amari esse ad illas.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
Filii, obedite parentibus per omnia: hoc enim placitum est in Domino.
21 Fathers, do not provoke your children, so that they won't be discouraged.
Patres, nolite ad indignationem provocare filios vestros, ut non pusillo animo fiant.
22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as people-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.
Servi, obedite per omnia dominis carnalibus, non ad oculum servientes, quasi hominibus placentes, sed in simplicitate cordis, timentes Deum.
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for people,
Quodcumque facitis, ex animo operamini sicut Domino, et non hominibus:
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Meshikha.
scientes quod a Domino accipietis retributionem hæreditatis. Domino Christo servite.
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
Qui enim injuriam facit, recipiet id quod inique gessit: et non est personarum acceptio apud Deum.
