< Colossians 3 >
1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.
Li yaa tie ke yi den fii leni Kilisiti bi tinkpiba siiga, yin yaa lingi mani tanpoli bonla yaala n ye U Tienu jienu Kilisiti n kaa naankani.
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
Ya kuandi mani yi yantiana tanpoli bonla nni, ki da kuandi yi yantiana handuna bonla nni.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
Kelima yi kpe, yi miali mo wuo leni Kilisiti U Tienu kani.
4 When Christ, your life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
Kilisiti yua n tie yi miali ya go doagidi yaa yogunu, yi moko baa taani ki doagidi leni o ti kpiagi nni.
5 Put to death, therefore, whatever is worldly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
Lanwani yin kpa mani handuna bonbuakabiadila yaala n ye yi niini kuli, lani n tie: Mi conconma, ti cagindi, li bonbuakabiadila leni yaala n joagini yaa buama kuli.
6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the children of disobedience.
Kelima yaaba n yie ki hua laa bonla kuli U Tienu pabienli baa jiidi bipo.
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;
Yi moko den tie yene yin den ye ti tuonbiadi nni yaa yogunu,
8 but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
ama moala yin ha mani yaala n tiena kuli: Li pabienli, li mutuoli, mi biadima, u nisugidu leni ti majoagindi buolibkuli.
9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices,
Yin da pua mani yi yaba faama, kelima yi landi utagi kpelu leni ubontienkaala kuli.
10 and have put on the new self, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
Ki lani u tagipaanu, yu n pandi yogunu kuli mi bandima nni cain nani yua n tagi u n tie maama yeni.
11 where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.
Laa tagipaanu nni mi gagidima ki go ye bi niba leni bi yaba siiga, laa pia jufi, laa pia nilamo, laa pia jungidili laa pia jufoli, laa pia yua n cogi, laa pia yua n ki cogi, laa pia yonbo, laa pia yua n die oyuli, Kilisiti n tie li kuli bikuli nni.
12 Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, gentleness, humility, and patience;
Lanwani yinba U Tienu nigandikaaba wan gagidi ki hanbi yaaba, ke yi tie obuakaaba, yin yaa la mani mi niñingbadima leni mi hanma leni li yumiinli leni mi dingima leni li juunli.
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.
Yin moandi ki juuni leni yi yaba, ki ya tiedi yi yaba po sugili. Li ya tie ke nilo bii o lielo po nani Kilisiti n den puni yi sugili maama, yi moko n yaa puuni yi yaba sugili yeni.
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
Yi ya tieni laa bonla kuli ki gbeni, yin la mani mi buama yaama n taani ki loli yi kuli yenma nani lan dagidi maama.
15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
Ke Kilisiti nden yini yi yaa yanduanma yaapo, ke yin tua gbannanyendi yeni n diedi yi pala, yin da tie hanwaadanba.
16 Let the word of Christ 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.
Kilisiti maama n yaa die yi siiga cain nani lanpundi maama. Ya bangi mani ki go tundi yi yaba leni mi yanfuomoanma, ki ya yiini U Tienu po li dandanli yani leni yi pala kuli nani li hanbili Fuoma n gobidi yi maama.
17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.
Yin maadi ya maama kuli leni yin tiendi yaala kuli, tieni mani li kuli o Diedo Jesu yeli po, ki ya tuondi U Tienu yua n tie Baa kelima wani Jesu yaapo.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Bi puoba yin ya miindi mani yula yi ciaba kani, nani lan bili ke yaaba n ye o Diedo nni n ya tiendi maama.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and do not be bitter against them.
Bi podanba ya bua mani yi puoba, ki da tiendi yaala n baa cuani bipo li mutuoli.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
A bila yin ya tuodi mani yi danba maama li bonnla kuli nni nani lan pundi o Diedo yaaba n yaa tiedi maama.
21 Fathers, do not provoke your children, so that they won't be discouraged.
Bi baanba, yin da tiendi yaala n baa fiindi yi bila pala ke bi gbani n da ti wudi li dandanli po.
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.
Bi tuonsoanba yin yaa tuodi ki hua yin pia yaa canbaanba ti gbannandi nni maama, yin da tiendi yeni ban nua yi yaa yogunu bebe ka, nani yi bua ki mangi bi nisaaliba yaa pala yeni. Ama yin yaa tiendi yeni yogunu kuli, kelima yi fangi o Diedo.
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for people,
Yin tiendi yaala kuli, yin yaa tiendi leni li yankuali, kelima yi tiendi oDiedo po yo, laa tie bi nisaaliba po ka!
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
Ki yaa bani ke yi baa ba o Diedo kani li faali panpaani. Soani mani Kilisiti o Diedo po.
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
Kelima yua n soani ke laa tiegi o baa ga o kaa teginma panpaani yo! Kelima U Tienu naa tiedi gagidima bi niba leni bi yaba siiga.
