Colossians 4
1 Ye masters! that which is just and equitable, unto your servants, be rendering, knowing that, ye also, have a Master in heaven.
Changte wah loong, sen dah loong ah ladande thang ih ese lam nah naririh ih siit an. Samthun et an sendi uh rangmong ni sen Changte wah ah eje.
2 Unto prayer, be devoting yourselves, watching therein with thanksgiving:
Saarookwih rangsoom an, nyia rangsoom an doh banban ih tong an, Rangte suh lakookmi li damdoh ah.
3 Praying, at the same time, for us also, —that, God, would open unto us a door for the word, so that we may speak the sacred secret of the Christ—for the sake of which also I am in bonds,
Erah damdoh seng suh uh rangsoom kohe, eno ba Rangte ih heh tiitkhaap baat raangtaan ih saapoot ese, Kristo husah tiit ah baattaan suh chokohe. Amadi ngah ah phaatak ni erah thoih ju tonglang.
4 That I may make it manifest as behoveth me to speak.
Erah raangtaan ih ngah ih mamet baatjih ah erah toom mi dan baat angsuh rangsoom an.
5 In wisdom, be walking towards them who are without, —the opportunity, buying out for yourselves,
Sen loong ah lahanpiite loong miksok doh sen reeraang pakna saapoot ese cholan pootdoh ejat mongtham lam ih noisok theng.
6 Your discourse being always with benefit, with salt, seasoned, —that ye may know how it behoveth you, unto each one, to be making answer.
Sen jengkhaap ah tenroonjih nyia mih ih nookchaat jih ih jeng theng, eno sen ih jat etheng mih suh mamah lamdoh epun ah mi ngaakbaat theng rah ah.
7 All the things which relate unto myself, shall Tychicus make known unto you—the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-servant in the Lord,
Seng joonwah Tiichikas, Teesu mootkaat ni tuungmaang lam ih mote wah nyia heh laksuh warah ih nga ruurang tiit ah baat kohan.
8 Whom I have sent unto you, to this very end, —that ye may get to know the things which concern us, and he may encourage you hearts:
Erah thoih ih ngah ih heh ah sen jiinni daapkaat halang, seng mamah kah ih reeraang ih loong ah baat kohanno toomroon thuk han suh ah.
9 Together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is from among you: —all things, unto you, will they make known, that [are taking place] here.
Heh damdoh seng joonte, sengdung dowa Onismas seng mongnook nyia seng tuungmaang theng ah roong raaha. Nengnyi ih aani tumjih angla tiit loong ah baat kokaat han.
10 Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, saluteth you; and Mark, the first cousin of Barnabas, —concerning whom ye have received commands—if he come unto you, give him welcome;
Nga damdi phaatak ni roong tongte wah Eristarkas nyia Barnasbas nuruung Maak ih uh jengkhaapse maatkaat halan. (Sen hah lam nah Maak mok raaha bah heh ah mamet noppoon theng ah erah ejen chaat baata etan nih.)
11 And Jesus, he that is called Justus, —they being of the circumcision; these only, [are my] fellow-workers unto the kingdom of God, men who have been, unto me, a comfort.
Josua men ah Jastas eh uh poon et ha, erah warah ih uh jengkhaapse maat halan. Jehudi dung nawa hanpiite arah wajom ah luulu ba nga damdi Rangte Hasong raang ih roong mootkaatte ah, neng ih ngah rapne ju kah ih chosok rum kohang.
12 Epaphras who is from among you, a servant of Christ Jesus, saluteth you, —at all times, contending in your behalf in his prayers, that ye may be caused to stand complete and fully assured in everything willed by God;
Sengdung nawa wasiit Epapras jiin nawa uh jengkhaapse maat halan, heh uh esiit Jisu Kristo laksuh ih mootte. Heh ih larit haat thang ih saarookwih Rangte suh rang ban soom ruh eha, sen loong ah Kristo mina jun ih rongkopkop nyia Rangte jeng chaatchaat ang raangtaan suh ah.
13 For I bear him witness, that he hath great toil in behalf of you, and them in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
Nga jiinko nawa ih ejen baat ih rumha sen loong raang ih, eno Lidosia nyia Hiirapolis mina loong raang ih Epapras ah rapne ju ih chekbek moh kota.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, salute you.
Seng mongnook, Phonwah Luk, nyia Demas ih uh sen suh jengkhaapse maat halan.
15 Salute ye the brethren, in Laodicea, also Nymphas, and the assembly, which meeteth at her house.
Lidosia nawa hanpiite loong nyia Nyampha nyia chaas mina heh nok nawa loong suh seng ih jengkhaapse raajengli ah baat koh an.
16 And, as soon as the epistle hath been read amongst you, cause that, in the assembly of Laodiceans also, it be read; and, that from Laodicea, that, ye also, read.
Arah le ah sen ih jen weh an lidoh, Lidosia chaas nah uh rootroot ih we koh theng. Erah damdam ih marah Lidosia hanpiite loong ih maatwanha le ah uh sen ih ewetkot etheng.
17 And say to Archippus: be taking heed unto the ministry which thou hast accepted in the Lord, —that, the same, thou fulfil.
Erah dam ih Arkipas suh baat an, “Sen ih marah Teesu mootkaat moh thuktan erah rootroot toom ih thoon moh ah.”
18 The salutation of me Paul, with my own hand: —keep in mind my bonds. Favour be with you!
Nga laklak ih raanghang arah ah: Pool jiin nawa jengkhaapse Ngah jaanruh ih khak halang ah nak beehaat an! Rangte tenthet ah sen damdoh toom ang ha.
