Colossians 3
1 If, therefore, ye have been raised together with the Christ, the things on high, be seeking, where, the Christ, is—on the right hand of God, sitting;
Nkashele Ongolobhe abhavyosezye pandwemo no Kristi, ganzajiamambo gamwauya gashele o Kristi akhala hukhono gwakwe ogwahushilome wa Ngolobhe.
2 The things on high, hold in esteem, not the things upon the earth:
Sebhaji amambo gagali amwanya gashelesegaoegenzi.
3 For ye have died, and, your life, is hid, together with the Christ, in God, —
Afwatanaje mfwinye naolukhalo lwenyu gafisilwe pandwemo no Kristi hwa Ngolobhe.
4 As soon as, the Christ, shall be made manifest—our life, then, ye also, together with him, shall be made manifest in glory;
O wakati o Kristi naibhoneha, afwateje lukhalo lwenyu, shashesho namwe nantele mwaibhonehana no mwene hutuntumu.
5 Make dead, therefore, your members that are on the earth—as regardeth fornication, impurity, passion, base coveting, and greed, the which, is idolatry, —
Esho gafisi amambo gagalipansiyai omalaya, ochafu, azilishe shibhibhi, eniyaimbibhi, nanyonywe, eyo mputo oilenka.
6 On account of which things cometh the anger of God, —
Afwataneje amambo ega ilyoyo elya Ngolobhe libhenza, whabhana bhashelesesebha whogopa.
7 Wherein, ye also, walked, at one time, when ye were living in these things;
Afwataneje amambo ega amwe nantele mwajendilehwego nna mwakhalaga hwabhene.
8 But, now, do, ye also, put them all away, —anger, wrath, baseness, defamation, shameful talk out of your mouth:
Eshi lazima mgefye amambo ega gonti yau. Ilyoyo, enkuni enia embibhi, indigo, nenongwa embibhi, gagafuma mwilomulyenyu.
9 Be not guilty of falsehood one to another: having stript off the old man, together with his practices,
Msakhopelane mwewhamwe afatane mwabhue ubhuntu wenyu owehale ne mbombo yakwe.
10 And having put on the new—who is being moulded afresh unto personal knowledge, after the image of him that hath created him, —
Mkwate ubhuntu opya, wahwubhombashipya nenjele afume no lengano whayola yabhomba.
11 Wherein there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, bond, free, —but, all things and in all, Christ:
Hunjele ezi nomo Myunani, no Mmyuhadi atahiliwe nasinte tailiwe, obhazo nosagabhaza otumwa yasagali tumwa lelopesho oKristi yomambo gonti wagonti.
12 Put on, therefore, as men chosen of God, holy and beloved, tender affections of compassion, graciousness, lowliness of mind, meekness, long-suffering,
Nkashele asalulwe bhangolobhe, abhoziwa naabhelwo vwano, hwikwattizi owhuntu owinza, epyana awhishe opole na ajimbe.
13 Bearing one with another, and in favour forgiving one another—if any, against any, have a complaint, —according as, the Lord, in favour forgave you, so also ye;
Ejelanaji mwemwehwamwe. Sajilanaji shilamuntu nowamwabho, nkashele umntu alamiha whawamwabho asajileshashila, nashi ogosi sabhhasajie amwe.
14 And, over all these things, love, which is a uniting-bond of completeness;
Ega amambo gonti, mganane eshoshenyezyo shegolosi.
15 And let, the peace of Christ, act as umpire in your hearts, unto which ye have been called in [one] body, and be thankful:
E amani eya Kristi ebhalongozye amoyo genyu. Ehalishe enashe olweteho eli huje mwakwiziwe hubelegumo mbhenolusalifo.
16 Let, the word of the Christ, dwell within you richly, —in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another, with psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, with gratitude, raising song with your hearts unto God:
Izu elya Kristi likhale mhatiyenyu hubhutajiri. Neshinshi yontii fundizanyaji na ajehane mwemwe namwe nahwembe, enyembo, ne nyembo zya humwoyo e, mbaji salifiaji amogogenyu wha Ngolobhe.
17 And whatsoever ye may be doing, in word, or in work, all things, [do] in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks unto the Divine Father through him: —
Hahonti hambhomba whizu olwe whitawailya Gosi O Yesu, peliensalifyo Ongolobhe oBaba ashilile whamwene.
18 Ye wives! be submitting yourselves unto your husbands, as is becoming in the Lord;
Mbhashe ihaji hwalumebhenyu, nashisasungwa Ogosi.
19 Ye husbands! be loving your wives, and be not embittered against them;
Amwebhalume bhagani abhashe bhenyu msabhebhakhali whabhene.
20 Ye children! be obedient unto your parents in all things, for, this, is, well pleasing, in the Lord;
Wana bhogopaji apaji bhenyu humambogoti, eshosasungwa Ogosi.
21 Ye fathers! be not irritating your children, lest they be disheartened;
Mwababa mgaje whandizye abahna bhenyu. bhasahilamwe.
22 Ye servants! be obedient, in all things, unto them who, according to the flesh, are your masters, —not with eye-service, as man-pleasers, but with singleness of heart, revering the Lord, —
Fasontelezi bhogopi agosi bhenyu hubele na mambo gonti, saga huhuduma eyimasonashiabhantu. Nashi abhantu bhasombezye wene nahumoyo uwelwoli mwogopaji Ongolobhe.
23 Whatsoever ye may be doing, from the soul, be working at it, as unto the Lord, and not unto men, -
Hahonti hambhomba bhombaji afume mioyo genyu nashi Ogosi nate hwabhantu.
24 Knowing that, from the Lord, ye shall duly receive the recompense of the inheritance, —unto the Lord Christ, are ye in service;
Mmenyeaje mbhapate etunzo eyatabhale afumeusha Gosi yo Kristi Ogosi yamhuputa.
25 For, he that acteth unrighteously, shall get back what he had unrighteously done, and there is no respect of persons;
Eshiwawhonti yabhomba gasheleseminza abhapate longwe hunjendo zya shelesenyinza gabhombele amnawhemele.
