Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
Xoossaa shenen Kiristtoosi Yesuusa hawaare gidida Phawuloosinne nu ishaa Ximotiyoosi,
2 to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
Qolaasiyasa kataman de7iya Kiristtoosan geeshshatasinne ammanettida asaas xaafida kiitaa. Xoossaa nu Aawappe aadho keehatethaynne sarotethay hinttew gido.
3 We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
Nuuni hinttew woossiya wode Xoossaa nu Godaa, Yesuus Kiristtoosa Aawa ubba wode galatoos.
4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have toward all the saints,
Nuuni Kiristtoos Yesuusan de7iya hintte ammanuwanne geeshshata ubbaas de7iya hintte siiquwa si7ida.
5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of truth, the Good News,
Hessa hintte oothiday hintte ufayssay salon hinttew naagettida gishossa. Hintte tuma kiitta gidida Wonggelaa koyro ammanida wode he ufayssaa si7ideta.
6 which has come to you; even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
Hintte he Wonggelaa si7ida wodenne Xoossaa aadho keehatethaa tumaa shaakki erida wodeppe doomidi hintte giddon haanidayssada biitta ubban diccishenne ayfishe de7ees.
7 even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,
Hintte hessa nuura issife Kiristtoosas oothiya ammanettida, dosettida Ephphaafirappe tamaarideta.
8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
I hessa bolla gujjidi Ayyaanay hinttew immida siiquwabaa nuus odis.
9 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, do not cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
Hessa gisho, nuuni hinttebaa si7ida gallasaappe doomidi, Xoossay ba sheniya hinttena bessana melanne, Geeshsha Ayyaanay immiya eratethaaninne cinccatetha ubban hinttena kunthana mela ubba wode hinttew Xoossaa woossos.
10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Hessadakka, Goday koyeyssada hintte daana mela, ubba wode iya ufayssana mela, lo77o ooso ubban hintte ayfe ayfana melanne Xoossaa aathi erishe diccana mela Xoossaa woossos.
11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy;
Xoossaa bonchcho wolqqay hintte ubbabaa genccanaadanne dandda7anaada ba minotethaa immidi hinttena ufaysso.
12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light;
Qassi geeshshata poo7o kawotethaa laattana mela hinttena oothida Aawa galatite.
13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and transferred us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love;
I nuna dhuma wolqqaafe ashshidi ba dosiya na7aa kawotethaako nuna ehis.
14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins;
Iyan wozettidi iya suuthan nagara atotethi demmida.
15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
Kiristtoosi benttonna Xoossaas tuma leemiso. I medhetetha ubbaafe bayra.
16 For by him all things were created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all things have been created by him and for him.
Ubbabay iya baggara medhettis. Benttiyabatinne benttonnabati, wolqqatinne godati, haareyssatinne maata aawati, saloninne sa7an de7iya ubbay iyawunne iya baggara medhettis.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
I ubbabaappe kase de7ees. Ubbabay iyan ba bessan bessan oykettidi de7ees.
18 He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
I ba asatethi gidida woosa keethas huu7e. I ubbaafe bolla gidanaw hayqoppe denddon sinthenne bayra.
19 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him,
Xoossay ba kumetha Xoossatethaara iyan daanaw koyis.
20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, making peace through the blood of his cross through him, whether things on the earth or things in heaven.
Qassi masqaliya bolla gussida ba na7aa suuthan sarotethi medhdhidi saloninne sa7an de7iya ubbaa iya baggara baara sigethis.
21 You, who once were alienated and were hostile in your minds, doing evil deeds,
Hayssafe kase hintte qofaa iitatethay hinttena Xoossaafe shaakkisinne iyara morkke oothis; hintte oosoykka iita.
22 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him,
Shin ha77i Kiristtoosi ashon hayqqida hayquwa baggara Xoossay hinttena baara sigethidi, geeshshata, borey baynnayssatanne xillota oothis.
23 if it is so that you continue in the faith, established and firm, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven; of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
Hinttee, hintte ammanuwan qaaxxonna minnidinne xaphphidi daanaw bessees. Hintte Wonggelaa qaalaa si7ida wode ekkida ufayssaa minthi oykkite. He Wonggelay hintte si7idayssanne biitta ubban sabbakettidayssa. Ta, Phawuloosikka ha Wonggelaas oosanchcho gidas.
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and I am completing in my flesh what is lacking in the sufferings of Christ for the sake of his body, which is the church;
Taani hintte gisho ha77i ekkiya waayiyan ufayttays. Kiristtoosi iya asatethi gidida woosa keethaas ekkida waayiya taani ta ashuwan polays.
25 of which I was made a servant, according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you, to fulfill the word of God,
Xoossaa qaalaa hinttew polada odana mela taw imettida maatan woosa keethaas oosanchcho gidas.
26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints. (aiōn g165)
Ha qaalay kase aadhdhida wodiyan yeletethaa ubbaafe geemmidi de7is. Shin ha77i Xoossay ha xuuraa ammaniyaa ubbaas qonccisis. (aiōn g165)
27 To them God was pleased to make known the glorious riches of this mystery among the non-Jews, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory;
Xoossay Ayhude gidonna asaa giddon ha xuuraa bonchcho duretethaa qonccisis. Ikka bonchcho ufayssi gidida hintte giddon de7iya Kiristtoosa.
28 whom we proclaim, admonishing everyone and teaching everyone all wisdom, that we may present everyone perfect in Christ Jesus;
Hessa gisho, issi issi asi Kiristtoosan kumetha asi oothidi shiishanaw cinccatetha ubban asaa tamaarssoninne zoren Kiristtoosabaa sabbakoos.
29 for which I also labor, struggling according to his power, which works in me mightily.
Xoossay ba gita wolqqan tanan oothiya gisho, ha77i gakkanaw iya wolqqan baaxetaysinne daaburays.
