Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
Godato, hinttewuka qassi salon Goday de7eyssa eridi, hintte aylletas xillotethaninne issuwa issuwafe shaakkonna koshshiyabaa oothite.
2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;
Xoossaa barkkidi galatishe qanxonna woossite.
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;
Xoossay ba qaalas pengge dooyana melanne taani hessa gaason qashon de7iya Kiristtoosa xuuraa awaajjana mela nuuskka woossite.
4 that I may reveal it as I ought to speak.
Qassi takka besseyssada qaala qonccisada odana mela taw Xoossaa woossite.
5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.
Injjetiya wode ubbaa go7ettishe ammanonna asaa matan cinccatethan de7ite.
6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
Hintte asa ubbaas koshshiya zaaro imo erana mela hintte oday ubba wode aadho keehatethan kumidayssanne maxineda mal7iyabaa gidanaw bessees.
7 All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow slave in the Lord.
Nu siiqo ishay Tikiqoosi, taara issife Godaa oosuwan aylle gidida, ammanettiya oosanchchoy, ta de7uwabaa hinttew odana.
8 I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts,
Taani iya hintteko kiittiday, nu waanidi de7iyakko hinttew odidi hinttena minthethana melassa.
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.
Anasmoosi, ammanettiya siiqo ishay, hintte baggay, iyara hintteko bees. Entti hayssan haniyaba ubbaa hinttew odana.
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"),
Taara qashettida Arisxirokoosinne Barnnabaasa ishaa na7ay Marqqoosi, hinttena saro yaagosona. Ta hinttew kase odidayssada Marqqoosi hintteko biikko iya mokkite.
11 and Yeshua 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.
Yesuusa giya Yasxxoosi hinttena saro saro yaagees. Xoossaa kawotethaa gisho taara oothiya asata giddofe Ayhude gididayssati ha heedzata; entti tana daro minthethidosona.
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.
Hintte baggay, Kiristtoos Yesuusa aylley, Ephphaafiri hinttena saro saro yaagees. I hintte Xoossaa sinthan minnidi eqqanaadanne Xoossaa sheniya eridi polana mela ubba wode Xoossaa hintte gisho woossees.
13 For I testify about him, that he has worked hard for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.
I hintte gishonne Loodoqiyaninne Hirapoolisa kataman de7iya asaa gisho daro daaburidayssa ta markkattays.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.
Nu siiqo ishay dottorey Luuqaasinne Deemasi, hinttena saro saro yaagosona.
15 Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and to Nympha and the congregation that is in her house.
Loodoqiyan de7iya nu ishatas, Nimfaasinne I keethan shiiqiya asaas nu sarothuwa odite.
16 When this letter has been read among you, cause it to be read also in the congregation of the Laodiceans; and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.
Ha dabddaabbiya hintte nabbabidaappe guye, Loodoqiya woosa keethan nabbabisite. Hintteka Loodoqiya woosa keethay hinttew yeddiya dabddaabbiya nabbabite.
17 Tell Archippus, "See that you fulfill the ministry that you have been given in the Lord."
Qassi Arkkiphphaasa, “Goday new immida oosuwa polanayssa dogoppa” yaagidi qofisite.
18 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains. Grace be with you.
Taani, Phawuloosi, ha sarothuwa ta kushen xaafas. Ta qashuwa qoppite. Xoossaa aadho keehatethay hinttera gido.
