Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy my brother, —
U Paulo umtume wa Kristi u Yesu, shahuanza Ungolowe nu Timoti uholowetu,
2 Unto the holy and faithful brethren in Christ that are, in Colosse, favour unto you, and peace, from our God and Father.
hulweteho na huwaholo awagolosu hwa Kristi wawaleho Hukolosai. Uweene uwe humwenyu nu pumu, afume hwa Ngolowe Udaada weti.
3 We are giving thanks unto God, the Father of our Lord Jesus [Christ], always, for you, offering prayer, —
Tihusalipwa Ungolowe, Udaada weti wa Yesu UKristi, tihuwalawila hani hani.
4 Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which ye have unto all the saints, —
Tumvyenze ulweteho wamlinao hwa Yesu Ukristi nu lugano wamlinao hwa wantu wonti bhabhaguliwe awe hua Ngolowe.
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,
Mli nulugano walioli uweshelwe humwanya awe wenyu. Mwahomvyezye aje agole lioli, shalisele izwi ni injili,
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,
eyo inyezelehu mwenyu. Inzwi lipapa amadondo liwala musimonti liwomba mhanti yentu ahuande isiku liamuhahovyenzye na manyile lioli uwene wa Ngolobhe.
7 Even as ye learned [it] from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is faithful in our behalf, as a minister of the Christ,
Eli izwi lyammanyie afume hwa Epafra, uganwwe wetu, umuwomba mbombo uwamwentu, muomba mbombo ugolosu wa Kristi ubadra uwetu.
8 Who also hath made evident unto us your love in spirit.
U Epafra auwombile uonehane humwenti uugano wenyu Hwampepo.
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,
Huje ulugano ouu ahwandi isiku hatahahovyenzye sagatileshile huwaputile. Tilishatillawa aje mmeme injelee, ihekima yonti, injele yahupepo.
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,
Tilishatilawa aje mjendaje na jimbe hwa Bwana hwidala lilipendezye. Tilishatilawa aje mpape amadondo shila mbombo inyinza munzawe ni njele iya Ngolowe.
11 With all power, being empowered, according to the grasp of his glory, unto all endurance and long-suffering with joy,
Tilawa mposhele ingovu ni ngovu izyi tuntumu wakwe naje tijimbanje na jimbizanye tonti.
12 Giving thanks unto the Father that hath made you sufficient for your share in the inheritance of the saints in the light,
Tilawa aje mshanje tisalipua huadaada yawawombile amwe muwe wakwe hulweteho uselu.
13 Who hath rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of his love;
Atikomboe afume huutawala wa nkhisi na hutusamizizye huumwene wa Mwana wakwe uganwe.
14 In whom, we have our redemption—the remission of our sins, —
Hwa Mwana wakwe tikombolilwe, tisanjililwe hu mbiwi.
15 Who, is an image of the unseen God, Firstborn of all creation, —
Umwana aliye yu Ngolowe yasagaawoneha, upapwe wahuande ya wumbe vyonti.
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,
Umwene ivitu vyonti vyahawombwilwe izyahumisanya, izyamunsi viviloleha, visagaviloleha. nkavya enzi, nkavya tawale vyangovu vyonti vyahawubwelwe nu mwene kwaajili yakwe.
17 And, he, is before all, and, they all, in him, hold together;
Umwene aleho wahuande kabla ya vyonti, umwene ivinti vyonti vihatene peka.
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; —
Umwene litwe li pele yaani ishiwanza, umwene wahuande, papwe wahuande afume mwawafyeye. Huje alini nafasi ya huande mvintu vyonti.
19 Because, in him, was all the fullness well pleased to dwell,
Huje Ungolobhe ahasongwelwe aje ufinyile wakwe wonti ukhala mhati yakwe,
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;
apatanishe ivintu vyonti hwidala lya Mwana wakwe. Ungolowe aahawombile upumu ashirile idanda lya mshikhomanyo wakwe. Ungolobhe ahapatanisizye wintu vyonti ivyakwe mwene. Nkha vintu vya munsi au ivintu vyahumwanya.
21 And, you, who at one time were estranged and enemies in your mind in your wicked works, yet, now, hath he fully reconciled,
Amwe nantele mwahali wajenu hwa Ngolobhe mwahali wawiwi wakwe hujele na humbombo imbiwi.
22 In his body of flesh, through means of his death, to present you holy and blameless and unaccusable before him, —
Eshi awawonganyenye amwe hu bele wakwe ashilile afye. Ahawombile esho ili awalete amwe muwagolosu wasaga walinimbiwi wala intavu hwitangalila lyakwe,
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.
nkamuza jende mlweteshelo mkamilishe mlishinza msahasogole mdandamaje hunzwi. Hi ndiyo injili iliyotangazwa kwa kila mtu aliyeumbwa chini ya mbingu. Elino ane ni Paulo indi muwomba mbombo.
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,
Eshi ishiye lwipata amalawa kwa ajili yamwe. Nanee iwomba hubele gwane shishipungoha humatawa gane hwa Kristi hubele gwakwe, ishipanga.
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,
Ane nimuomba mbombo wishipanga husawasawa ni mbombo nyimpewilwe afume Hwangolowe hwaajili yamwe, amyemye izwi lya Ngolobhe.
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 g165)
Ene ilioli siri ifisilwe amaha minchi huvizazi. Eshi saga siri hwa wonti wawali nu lweteshelo hwa mwene. (aiōn g165)
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, —
Ungolowe awazile wala wahwanza huwawonesha utaajiri wa utuntumu wa siri ya ulioli mhanti yawantu munsi zyonti. Huje UKristi aleho mhati yenyu, udandamazu nu tuntumu uuhwenza.
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;
Uno yuyulatihutengemela Tihusunda kila muntu, tihumanyizya kila muntu injele yonti, ili tulete kila muntu huungolosu hwa Kristi.
29 Unto which I am even toiling, contending according to his energy which is energising itself in me with power.
Ane ihujilavya na ikazana afuatane ni ngovu zyakwe zyaziwomba imbombo mhati yane nu ngovu.
