Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
| ܡܪܝܐ ܥܒܕܘ ܫܘܝܘܬܐ ܘܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܠܘܬ ܥܒܕܝܟܘܢ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܕܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܬ ܗܘ ܡܪܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ |
2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;
| ܒܨܠܘܬܐ ܐܬܐܡܢܘ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܝܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܘܡܘܕܝܢ |
3 praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Messiah, for which I am also in bonds;
| ܘܡܨܠܝܢ ܐܦ ܥܠܝܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܢܦܬܚ ܠܢ ܬܪܥܐ ܕܡܠܬܐ ܠܡܡܠܠܘ ܐܪܙܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܡܛܠܬܗ ܐܤܝܪ ܐܢܐ |
4 that I may reveal it as I ought to speak.
| ܕܐܓܠܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܠܠܝܘܗܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܘܠܐ ܠܝ |
5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.
| ܒܚܟܡܬܐ ܗܠܟܘ ܠܘܬ ܒܪܝܐ ܘܙܒܢܘ ܩܐܪܤܟܘܢ |
6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
| ܘܡܠܬܟܘܢ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܒܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܡܠܚܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܡܡܕܟܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܠܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܡܬܒܘ ܦܬܓܡܐ |
7 All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow slave in the Lord.
| ܡܕܡ ܕܠܘܬܝ ܕܝܢ ܢܘܕܥܟܘܢ ܛܘܟܝܩܘܤ ܐܚܐ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܘܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܘܟܢܬܢ ܒܡܪܝܐ |
8 I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts,
| ܗܢܐ ܕܫܕܪܬ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܥܠܝܗ ܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܕܢܕܥ ܡܐ ܕܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܢܒܝܐ ܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ |
9 together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you everything that is going on here.
| ܥܡ ܐܢܤܝܡܘܤ ܐܚܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܘܚܒܝܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܢܘܕܥܘܢܟܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܠܘܬܢ |
10 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commandments, "if he comes to you, receive him"),
| ܫܐܠ ܒܫܠܡܟܘܢ ܐܪܤܛܪܟܘܤ ܫܒܝܐ ܕܥܡܝ ܘܡܪܩܘܤ ܒܪ ܕܕܗ ܕܒܪܢܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܦܩܕܬܘܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܢ ܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܬܩܒܠܘܢܝܗܝ |
11 and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These are my only fellow workers for the Kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.
| ܘܝܫܘܥ ܗܘ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܝܘܤܛܘܤ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܥܕܪܘܢܝ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܝ ܒܘܝܐܐ |
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Messiah, salutes you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and fully assured in all the will of God.
| ܫܐܠ ܒܫܠܡܟܘܢ ܐܦܦܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܢܟܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܟܕ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܥܡܠ ܚܠܦܝܟܘܢ ܒܨܠܘܬܐ ܕܬܩܘܡܘܢ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܘܡܫܡܠܝܐ ܒܟܠܗ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ |
13 For I testify about him, that he has worked hard for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.
| ܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܛܢܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܠܦܝܟܘܢ ܘܚܠܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܠܕܝܩܝܐ ܘܕܒܐܝܪܦܘܠܝܤ |
14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.
| ܫܐܠ ܒܫܠܡܟܘܢ ܠܘܩܐ ܐܤܝܐ ܚܒܝܒܢ ܘܕܡܐ |
15 Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and to Nympha and the church that is in her house.
| ܫܐܠܘ ܒܫܠܡܐ ܕܐܚܐ ܕܒܠܕܝܩܝܐ ܘܕܢܘܡܦܐ ܘܕܥܕܬܐ ܕܒܒܝܬܗ |
16 When this letter has been read among you, cause it to be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.
| ܘܡܐ ܕܐܬܩܪܝܬ ܐܓܪܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܥܒܕܘ ܕܐܦ ܒܥܕܬܐ ܕܠܕܝܩܝܐ ܬܬܩܪܐ ܘܗܝ ܕܐܬܟܬܒܬ ܡܢ ܠܕܝܩܝܐ ܩܪܐܘܗ ܐܢܬܘܢ |
17 Tell Archippus, "See that you fulfill the ministry that you have been given in the Lord."
| ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܐܪܟܝܦܘܤ ܕܐܙܕܗܪ ܒܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܩܒܠܬ ܒܡܪܢ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܡܫܡܠܐ ܠܗ |
18 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains. Grace be with you.
| ܫܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܒܐܝܕܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܕܦܘܠܘܤ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܗܕܝܢ ܠܐܤܘܪܝ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܐܡܝܢ |
