< Colossians 1 >
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy my brother, —
Pool Rangte thungpun jun ih Jisu Kristo kaamwah ih danjeeta nyia seng phono Timothi jiin nawa arah le ah—
2 Unto the holy and faithful brethren in Christ that are, in Colosse, favour unto you, and peace, from our God and Father.
Kolosi nawa Rangte mina, marah Kristo damdi roong roopte seng mongnook joon awaan loong asuh: Seng loong wah Rangte ih sen suh tenthet nyia semroongroong ah toom kohan.
3 We are giving thanks unto God, the Father of our Lord Jesus [Christ], always, for you, offering prayer, —
Seng ih sen suh rangsoom koh idi Teesu Jisu Kristo Wah, seng Rangte suh saarookwih lakookmi kali ih.
4 Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which ye have unto all the saints, —
Tumeah seng ih, sen loong Jisu Kristo suh tuungmaang anrah nyia Rangte mina loong damdi minchan ih tongtha an rah ejap chaat etti.
5 Because of the hope that is lying by for you in the heavens, of which ye heard before, in the word of the truth of the glad-message,
Maatokdi sen jiinni amiisak tiit nyia Ruurang Ese ah phang thok taha adi, sen ih laalom thaang ah echojih eje ih chaattan. Erah thoih sen hanpi nyia minchan ah sen marah suh laalom lan erah di jeela, eno erah rangmong ni sen suh punpiipi ih banthiin kohalan.
6 When it presented itself unto you; even as, in all the world also, it is bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day when ye heard, and came personally to know the favour of God in truth,
Rangte tiitkhaap adi romseetam ah banje ruh ela, Heh minchan ah ephang di sengdung ni japchaat ano amiimi boh angka ih jattan ah likhiik mongrep ni jaatjaang ruh ih kala.
7 Even as ye learned [it] from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is faithful in our behalf, as a minister of the Christ,
Sen ih Rangte minchan ah Kristo laksuh seng loong dakbi ih mootkaatte, seng joonwah Epapras jiinko nawa japchaat tan.
8 Who also hath made evident unto us your love in spirit.
Heh ih sen suh Esa Chiiala ih minchan tumjaat kotahan erah tiit ah baat et tahe.
9 For this cause, we also, from the day when we heard [of you], cease not, in your behalf, praying and asking—that ye may be filled unto the personal knowledge of his will, in all spiritual wisdom and discernment,
Erah raangtaan ih seng ih sen tiit japchaatti dowa ih sen suh saarookwih rangsoom kohi. Rangte thung atak jun ih ejat esam toom ang an nyia jaatrep doh mongwah maakwah nyia thungse takmi ah Esa Chiiala ih toom kohan ih seng ih Rangte dowa suhi.
10 So as to walk worthily of the Lord, unto all pleasing, in every good work, bearing fruit, and growing in the personal knowledge of God,
Eno ba, sen ah Teesu ih jamha jun doh tongsong an nyia saarookwih heh tenroonjih ih re an. Sen roidong doh jaatrep eseejih loong ah sen reeraang pakna nah dong tiikngook anrah je ah, erah dam ih sen ah Rangte thung atak jun doh hak an.
11 With all power, being empowered, according to the grasp of his glory, unto all endurance and long-suffering with joy,
Sen loong asuh hechaan hephaan nah rongkopkop tah apah toom kohan, eno ba sen ih jaatrep ah ese lam ih ejen naan et an. Eno Rangte suh tenroon lam ih lakookmi li an, tumeah Rangte ih heh mina loong raangtaan ih weephaak hasong ban thiinha adi sen uh ejen roong chowang ejih ih hoonkoh halan.
12 Giving thanks unto the Father that hath made you sufficient for your share in the inheritance of the saints in the light,
13 Who hath rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of his love;
Heh ih seng ah laamang chaan aphaan ih pan tahe dowa dok pang heeno, heh Sah hasong adi punpiipi ih thoksiit hali,
14 In whom, we have our redemption—the remission of our sins, —
heh sih janhaatta thoi ih ba seng ah pongwan angli, erah langla seng rangdah loong ah biin anaan hali.
15 Who, is an image of the unseen God, Firstborn of all creation, —
Kristo ah miktup di mik ih latupke Rangte ah likhiik. Heh ah miwah Sah phangkhothoon ih tup arah, jaatrep dongsiitta dowa o nang ih uh elongthoon.
16 Because, in him, were created all things in the heavens and upon the earth, the things seen and the things unseen, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities, —they all, through him and for him, have been created,
Tumeah, heh dowa ih ba Rangte ih rang nyia hah dowa jaatrep ah dongsiitta, miktup nyia mik ih latupke hukkhaak loong ah dongsiit eta, erah damdi chiilala chaan aphaan loong, teesu loong, phansiitte loong nyia ngoong awang loong ah dongsiitta. Rangte ih arah mongrep ah heh dowa ih nyia heh raangtaan ih dongsiitta.
17 And, he, is before all, and, they all, in him, hold together;
Kristo ah jaatrep hukkhaak loong maang dong di dook eje angta, eno heh dowa ih ba jaatrep ah phanjangjang ih marah doh angtheng ah erah di dong hoonta.
18 And, he, is the head of the body, the assembly, Who is the beginning, Firstborn from among the dead, in order that, he, might become, in all things, himself, pre-eminent; —
Kristo ah heteewah sak adi khoroopthoon angta, erah ah Chaas; heh ah sakpuh asuh roidong kotte. Heh ah phangkhothoon ih tup arah Sah phokhoh, tek nawa ngaakthingte warah ah, erah thoih ih jaatrep hukkhaak nganah heh ju ba ngakhothoon angjih.
19 Because, in him, was all the fullness well pleased to dwell,
Tumeah heh Sah rah Rangte dang ajang likhiik angtheng ih, Rangte heteewah kaanthot jun ih angta.
20 And, through him, fully to reconcile all things unto him, making peace through the blood of his cross, —[through him]—whether the things upon the earth or the things in the heavens;
Erah lidi, Rangte ih mongrep thoontang ah heh teewah jiinko heh Sah jun ih ngaak siitwan suh kaanthotta. Rangte ih heh Sah ah semroongroong raangtaan ih bangphak ni heh sih janhaat thuk ano rangmong nyia hatoh nawa jaatrep loong ah heh jiinko ih ngaaksiit rumta.
21 And, you, who at one time were estranged and enemies in your mind in your wicked works, yet, now, hath he fully reconciled,
Pootsiit bah sen loong ah Rangte piiara ang anno heh jiin nawa haloot ni angtan, tumeah sen ih ethih tenthun nyia ethih reeraang re thoidi ah.
22 In his body of flesh, through means of his death, to present you holy and blameless and unaccusable before him, —
Enoothong amadi, hansi ni heh Sah ah tek haat thoi ba, Rangte ih heh joonte ih hoon halan, tumeah heh ih sen ah heh jiinnah esa, saachamcham, nyia emoong muh, ih ngaaksiit suh thun halan.
23 If, at least, ye are abiding still in the faith, founded and firm, and not to be moved away from the hope of the glad-message which ye have heard, which hath been proclaimed in all creation which is under heaven, —of which, I Paul, have become minister.
Erah thoih sen ah, rongkopkop nyia amiisak tuungmaang nah ban tongruh jaatjaat ejih, eno sen ih ruurangese japchaat han dowa ih sen teeteewah erah laalom lan dowa lakah lengli theng ih tong an. Erah ah juuba Rangte tiitkhaap, ngah Pool, heh laksuh ih hoonlang—arah Rangte tiit ah mongrep noongrepwih ni jaatjaang tumbaat kaatte wah ah.
24 Now, am I rejoicing in the sufferings on your behalf, and am filling up the things that lack of the tribulations of the Christ, in my flesh, in behalf of his body, which is the assembly,
Amadi, ngah sen raangtaan ih chamnaang lang asuh eroon elang, tumeah, ngah hansi ni chamnaang lang ah langla, Jisu Kristo ih heh Sakpuh, Chaas, ah raangtaan ih mathan we boot chamjih angta rah ngah ih roongthoon hui hang.
25 Of which, I, have become minister—according to the administration of God which hath been given unto me to you-ward, to fill up the word of God,
Ngah ah Rangte ih Chaas laksuh ih hoon halang, arah mootkaat ah sen loong ese raangtaan ih moh thuk halang. Arah mootkaat ah langla heh tiitkhaap ah laanlang ruh ih tumbaat jih,
26 The sacred secret which had been hidden away from the ages and from the generations, but, now, hath been made manifest unto his saints— (aiōn )
husah tiitkhaap teewah dowa ih dook mina roirep suh labaat thang ih huthiinta rah, heh mina loong suh amadi dongjat thuk ha. (aiōn )
27 Unto whom God hath been pleased to make known what is the glorious wealth of this sacred secret among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory, —
Rangte kaankoong ah langla heh mina loong suh husah tiitkhaap ah jatthuk suh angta, erah husah tiit ah rapne changteng tiit nyia chaan aphaan tiit heh mina loongtang raang ih angta. Eno Kristo sen damdi ang hala ajuuba husah tiit, erah langla sen ah Rangte chaan aphaan adoh roong chophaak an.
28 Whom we are declaring, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, in order that we may present every man complete in Christ;
Erah thoih seng ih Kristo tiit ah mirep suh tumbaat hi. Seng ih hethung hetak jun ih heh tiit ah choophaan baat hi nyia nyootsoot hi, warep ah Rangte pandoh thungsek taklek Kristo damdoh roop lam ih thoksiit suh ah.
29 Unto which I am even toiling, contending according to his energy which is energising itself in me with power.
Erah jen re suh ngaatah ngaapah Kristo ih mathan kohalang erathan ih sapreelang nyia chamnaang lang, eno erah chaan aphaan nawa ih juuba nga roidong ni moh ra hala.
