Colossians 2
1 For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
Nangmi ja Lodikih khyange ja kei a khyangpuma am na ksingki hea phäh ihlawka khuikha lü ka khüi cun ning jah mtheh vang.
2 that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
Linglainak am be lü mhläkphyanak üng atänga ami kümbe law vaia ja, ksingkhyapnak kcang lawpüikia mkhühüpnak am ami kümbe lawnak vaia kyaki. Acunüng va, Pamhnama thup Khritaw cun ami ksing law vaia ahin ka pawh ni.
3 in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
Khritaw cun ngthupkia Pamhnama pungngyam ja themngvainak nghmawngnak tawha kyaki.
4 Now I say this so that no one will deceive you with persuasive words.
Akdaw säiha ngsaih u lü pi, u naw pi am cangkia ngcuhkaihnak am käh a ning jah mhleimhlak vaia ahin ka ning jah mtheh ni.
5 For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
Pumsa am nami hlawnga am ve ngü sepi, ngmüimkhya üng ta nami hlawnga ka vekia kya se, Khritaw üng nami jumeinak ngkhängpang lü atänga nami ngdüih yüm ka hmuh üng ka jeki.
6 As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him,
Khritaw Jesuh cun Bawipa ni tia nami doei pängki he a kyase, ani üng yümmat lü xüngsei ua.
7 rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
Ani üng phungpyamah lü, ani üng xüngsei ua. Nami ngtheingthang pängki he a kyase jumeinak üng ngkhängpang u. Jenak mthehnak üng kümbe u bä.
8 Be careful not to allow anyone to captivate you through an empty and deceptive philosophy, according to human tradition, according to the elementary principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
Khritaw üngkhyüh lawkia am kya lü, khawmdek ngmüimkhyae ja khyanga mtheimthangnake amdang üngkhyüh lawkia pungngyam üng mpyaa käh a ning jah pawh vaia mceiei u bä.
9 For in him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form,
Isenitiüng, Khritaw khyanga a thawnnak üng Mhnam ning cun kümceiki ni.
10 and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power;
Ani üng yümmatnaka xünnak kümcei a ning jah pet päng ni. Ngmüimkhya naküt ja ana naküta khana hlüngtai säihki ni.
11 in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
Khritaw üng yümmatnak üng vun mawih pänga nami kyaki. Khyang naw a pawha vun mawihnak am ni lü, Khritaw naw a pawha vun mawih ni. Acun cun mkhyekatki pumsaa mpya üngkhyüh lätnak ni.
12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
Baptican nami khan üng Khritaw am atänga nami ng’utei pängki ni. Baptican nami khan üng, thihnak üngkhyüh Khritaw mtho beki Pamhnama johit jumeinak üng, thihnak üngkhyüh nami tho be pängki he ni.
13 You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,
Nami mkhyenake ja Thum kaa khyangmjükcea nami thawna phäh ngmüimkhya thihnaka nami phaki. Acunüng pi, Pamhnam naw nami mkhyekatnak naküt ning jah mhlätei lü Khritaw üng xünnak a ning jah pet be ni.
14 wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us; and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross;
Jah khitkhawnkia mi leie a jah mcun naküt cun Pamhnam naw a jah mhlät pet ni. Kutlamktunga cehpüi lü avan a jah mkhyüh pet päng ni.
15 having disarmed the rulers and authorities, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Acuna kutlamktung üngkhyüh Khritaw naw amät cun khyaihbahnake ja ngmüimkhya johite üngka naw mhläteiki. Acun he cun khyangea hmuh vaia tamnaea mäiha amäta ngnängnak da jah cehpüiki.
16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you about food and drink, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
Acunakyase, Sabbath mhnüp, khyathei pawi, khawning pawie üng, i ei aw lü i käh nami eiawk vai tia u naw pi käh ning jah mkhyah pet se.
17 which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.
Acun naküt cun ngawia thawn law khai pumsaa mkhya ni. Acuna pumsa ta Khritaw ni.
18 Let no one rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
Khankhawngsäe a jah sawkhaha phäh mdannak yah lü hlüngtai säihkia hana cawmkia khyange naw käh ning jah mkatei u se. Isetiüng, acuna khyange cun nghngicim cungngaihnak am cungngai u lü akhawva awhcahnakie ni. Acun he cun amdange ni.
19 and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God's growth.
Pumsa lupuma kyaki Khritawa mtisaa am kya ti u. Pumsa avan cun Khritawa tumbeinak üng xüng lü atänga ngsüngcawng lü Pamhnama hlüeia kba dämduhkie ni.
20 If you died with Christ from the elementary principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,
Khritaw am thi päng lü khawmdek jah khankhaw kanaki ngmüimkhya ksea kut k’um üngkhyüh a ning jah mhlät ni. Nangmi cun Khritaw üng nami thi pängki a ni üng, hin käh ei vai, can käh awk vai, hin käh hneh vai tia khawmdek thumceme ise nami jah läklam hamkie ni.
21 "Do not handle, nor taste, nor touch"
22 (all of which perish with use), according to human commandments and teachings?
Khyanga mtheimthangnak üng ami jah läklamsaka thumceme hin ta amdanga ni a thawn kawm.
23 Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but are not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
Acuna thumcem he cun, asihlinga khankhawngsäe sawkhahnak, mlung mhnemnak han ja pumsa mkhuimkhanake üngkhyüh ami yah pungngyam üng tüneiki ni. Cunüngpi, ami mtisa khana ami bilawh cun amdang ni.
