Colossians 4
1 you who [are] Masters, that which [is] righteous and that which [is] equal to the slaves do give knowing that also you yourselves have a Master in (heaven. *N(k)O*)
οι κυριοι το δικαιον και την ισοτητα τοις δουλοις παρεχεσθε ειδοτες οτι και υμεις εχετε κυριον εν ουρανοις
2 In prayer do continue steadfastly watching in it with thanksgiving;
τη προσευχη προσκαρτερειτε γρηγορουντες εν αυτη εν ευχαριστια
3 praying at the same time also for us that God may open to us a door for the word to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I have been bound,
προσευχομενοι αμα και περι ημων ινα ο θεος ανοιξη ημιν θυραν του λογου λαλησαι το μυστηριον του χριστου δι ο και δεδεμαι
4 so that I may make clear it as it behooves me to speak.
ινα φανερωσω αυτο ως δει με λαλησαι
5 In wisdom do walk toward those outside the time redeeming.
εν σοφια περιπατειτε προς τους εξω τον καιρον εξαγοραζομενοι
6 [Let] the speech of you [be] always in grace, with salt seasoned, to know how it behooves you one each to answer.
ο λογος υμων παντοτε εν χαριτι αλατι ηρτυμενος ειδεναι πως δει υμας ενι εκαστω αποκρινεσθαι
7 The [things] concerning me myself all will make known to you Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful servant and fellow bond-servant in [the] Lord,
τα κατ εμε παντα γνωρισει υμιν τυχικος ο αγαπητος αδελφος και πιστος διακονος και συνδουλος εν κυριω
8 whom I sent to you for this very purpose that (you may know *N(K)(O)*) the [things] concerning (us *N(K)O*) and he may encourage the hearts of you,
ον επεμψα προς υμας εις αυτο τουτο ινα γνω τα περι υμων και παρακαλεση τας καρδιας υμων
9 with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you; All things to you they will make known here.
συν ονησιμω τω πιστω και αγαπητω αδελφω ος εστιν εξ υμων παντα υμιν γνωριουσιν τα ωδε
10 Greets you Aristarchus the fellow prisoner of mine and Mark the cousin of Barnabas, concerning whom you have received instructions: if he shall come to you, do welcome him;
ασπαζεται υμας αρισταρχος ο συναιχμαλωτος μου και μαρκος ο ανεψιος βαρναβα περι ου ελαβετε εντολας εαν ελθη προς υμας δεξασθε αυτον
11 and also Jesus who is being named Justus, those being among [the] circumcision these only fellow workers for the kingdom of God, who have been to me a comfort.
και ιησους ο λεγομενος ιουστος οι οντες εκ περιτομης ουτοι μονοι συνεργοι εις την βασιλειαν του θεου οιτινες εγενηθησαν μοι παρηγορια
12 Greets you Epaphras who [is] [one] of you, a servant of Christ (Jesus, *NO*) always struggling for you in the prayers, so that (you may be stood *N(k)O*) mature and (fully complete *N(k)O*) in all [the] will of God.
ασπαζεται υμας επαφρας ο εξ υμων δουλος χριστου παντοτε αγωνιζομενος υπερ υμων εν ταις προσευχαις ινα στητε τελειοι και πεπληρωμενοι εν παντι θεληματι του θεου
13 I bear witness for to him that he has great (labour *N(K)O*) for you and those in Laodicea and [those] of them in Hiera polis.
μαρτυρω γαρ αυτω οτι εχει ζηλον πολυν υπερ υμων και των εν λαοδικεια και των εν ιεραπολει
14 Greets you Luke the physician beloved and also Demas.
ασπαζεται υμας λουκας ο ιατρος ο αγαπητος και δημας
15 do greet the in Laodicea brothers and also (Nympha *N(K)O*) and the in house (of her *N(K)(o)*) church.
ασπασασθε τους εν λαοδικεια αδελφους και νυμφαν και την κατ οικον αυτου εκκλησιαν
16 And when may be read among you the letter, do cause that also in the of [the] Laodiceans church it may be read, and the [one] from Laodicea that also you yourselves may read.
και οταν αναγνωσθη παρ υμιν η επιστολη ποιησατε ινα και εν τη λαοδικεων εκκλησια αναγνωσθη και την εκ λαοδικειας ινα και υμεις αναγνωτε
17 And do say to Archippus; do take heed to the ministry that you have received in [the] Lord, that it you may fulfill.
και ειπατε αρχιππω βλεπε την διακονιαν ην παρελαβες εν κυριω ινα αυτην πληροις
18 The greeting in my own hand — by Paul. do remember my chains. Grace [be] with you (Amen. *KO*) (to Colossian it was written from Rome through Tychicus and Onesimus. *K*)
ο ασπασμος τη εμη χειρι παυλου μνημονευετε μου των δεσμων η χαρις μεθ υμων αμην
