< Colossians 1 >

1 PAUL, a legate of Jesus the Messiah by the pleasure of God, and Timothy a brother,
Sodꞌa-moleꞌ mia au, Paulus. Lamatualain mana pili au fo dadꞌi Yesus Kristus dedꞌenun. Sia ia o hita toronoon Timotius fee hei hara sodꞌa-moleꞌ boe.
2 to them who are at Colosse, the brethren, holy and believing in Jesus the Messiah: peace be with you, and grace from God our Father.
Au suraꞌ susura ia fee hei, Lamatualain atahorin sia Kolose, mana tao tungga Yesus Kristus dꞌala masodꞌan. Hai moꞌe Lamatualain, hita Aman, natudꞌu rala malolen neu hei, naa fo hei bisa leo-lao no mole-dꞌame, ma nemehoꞌot.
3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, at all times, and pray for you;
Hai hule-oꞌe mikindooꞌ a fee nggi sia ia, ma hai moꞌe makasi mbali Lamatualain, fo hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus Aman.
4 lo, ever since we heard of your faith in Jesus the Messiah, and of your love to all the saints;
Hai rena dalaꞌ naeꞌ soꞌal hei nemehere mara neu Yesus Kristus, ma soꞌal hei susuem no rala malole mara neu basa atahori mamahereꞌ ra.
5 because of the hope that is laid up for you in heaven, of which ye heard before in the word of truth of the gospel;
Hei tao taꞌo naa, huu hei bubꞌuluꞌ dꞌala-dꞌala maloleꞌ, nenembedꞌaꞌ fee nggi sia nusa tetuꞌ a. Dꞌala ia ra, hei rena mia dedꞌea-oꞌola ndoo-tetuꞌ, naeni Lamatuaꞌ Hara-lii Malolen,
6 which is announced to you, as also to all the world; and which groweth and yieldeth fruits, as it doth also among you from the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in reality:
fo atahori reti rafadꞌe hei maꞌahulun. Hara-lii Maloleꞌ a nene dui-bꞌenggaꞌ sia bee-bꞌee sia raefafoꞌ ia, hambu buna-bꞌoan no maloleꞌ, huu ana obꞌa atahori masodꞌan dadꞌi maloleꞌ. Hei masodꞌa mara o nene obꞌaꞌ onaꞌ naa boe, eniꞌ mia fefeun fo hei rena Hara-lii Maloleꞌ a, ma mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌe Lamatualain rala malolen.
7 as ye learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful minister of the Messiah;
Hei minori dalaꞌ ia ra mia aꞌa Eprafras, naeni hita nonoon mana tao ues fo hita sueꞌ a. Te ana manggate tao Kristus ue-tataon, sia taladꞌa mara.
8 and who hath made known to us your love in the Spirit.
Ana dui hai sia ia soꞌal hei dꞌala susue mara, fo Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen fee nggiꞌ a.
9 Therefore we also, from the day we heard of it, have not ceased to pray for you; and to ask that ye may be filled with a knowledge of the good pleasure of God, in all wisdom, and in all spiritual understanding;
Huu naa, eniꞌ a mia fefeun hai rena soꞌal hei dꞌala ma, hai hule-oꞌe mikindondooꞌ a fee nggi. Hai moꞌe Lamatualain fo fee nggi mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ hihii-nanaun, ma mihine dalaꞌ naeꞌ, tungga saa fo Dula-daleꞌ a nanori neu nggi.
10 that ye may walk as is right, and may please God with all good works, and may yield fruits, and grow in the knowledge of God;
No taꞌo naa, hei bisa misodꞌa mindaandaa, ma mendi Lamatualain nara malolen. Ma hei o bisa tao mimihoꞌo Lamatuaꞌ ralan sia basa dalaꞌ ra. Mete ma hei mitudꞌu rala malole mara neu atahori, hei boe mihine Lamatuaꞌ.
11 and may be strengthened with all strength, according to the greatness of his glory, in all patience and long suffering;
Hai o hule-oꞌe moꞌe Lamatualain fee koasa manaselin, fo bisa miꞌitataaꞌ lemba-misaa basa dalaꞌ ra. Hai hule fo rala mara sofeꞌ no nemehoꞌot, fo moꞌe makasi mikindoo neu Amaꞌ Lamatualain. Te Ana soi dalaꞌ de hei simbo babꞌanggiꞌ mia hata-hetoꞌ mana sia nusa tetuꞌ. Hata-hetoꞌ naa, Ana fee basa atahori mana ramahere neu Yesus Kristus. Huu Ana mboꞌi hendi nggita mia koasa maꞌahatuꞌ a, de fee nggita, dadꞌi Yesus Kristus atahorin, fo leo sia manggareloꞌ a. Ana soꞌu nanaru Yesus Kristus, dadꞌi hita Manen. Yesus naa, Lamatualain Ana susuen.
12 and may, with joy, give thanks to God the Father, who hath fitted us for a portion of the inheritance of the saints in light;
13 and hath rescued us from the dominion of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son;
14 by whom we have redemption and remission of sins:
Lamatualain fee hendi Anan naa, fo soi-tefa nggita, ma fee ambon neu sala-singgo tara.
15 who is the likeness of the invisible God, and the first-born of all creatures:
Kristus naa, mataꞌ esa no Lamatualain, fo atahori nda bisa ritaꞌ a sa. Ana sia naꞌahuluꞌ basaꞌ e, Ana dadꞌi Malangga mia basa saa fo Lamatualain taoꞌ ra.
16 and by him was created every thing that is in heaven and on earth, all that is seen and all that is unseen, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or sovereignties; every thing was through him, and was created by him:
Huu Lamatualain pake E fo tao nala lalai ma raefafoꞌ no basa isin. Ana tao sudꞌiꞌ a saa fo atahori bisa ritaꞌ ra. ma atahori nda bisa ritaꞌ ra sa. Conto onaꞌ, mana toꞌu parendaꞌ, mana toꞌu koasa, maneꞌ ra, ro malangga-malangga ra. Basa saa fo Lamatualain nae taoꞌ ra, Ana tao fee neu Yesus kristus, ma Yesus mana ue-tao basa naa ra.
17 and he was prior to all, and by him every thing exists.
Leleꞌ basaꞌ e nda feꞌe sia sa, te Ana sia memaꞌ ena. Basa saa mana dadꞌiꞌ ra, nene paꞌa-siiꞌ ro E, ma Eni mana tao mataꞌ neu se.
18 And he is the head of the body the church; as he is the head and first-born from among the dead, that he might be the first in all things.
Ana dadꞌi Malangga neu basa atahori mamahereꞌ ra, ma atahori mamahereꞌ ra dadꞌi onaꞌ aon boe. Te Eni mana nalalao basaꞌ e. Mia basa mana mateꞌ ra, Eni mana fela naꞌahuluꞌ, Dadꞌi Eni pantin lenaꞌ basa se, ma Eni mana sia ataꞌ lenaꞌ basa se.
19 For it pleased the Father, that in him all fullness should dwell;
Basa mana sia Lamatualain aon, hambu sia Kristus aon boe. naa tao Lamatualain namahoꞌo,
20 and by him, to reconcile all things to himself; and through him, he hath pacified, with the blood of his cross, both those on earth and those in heaven.
Lamatualain pake Yesus Kristus, fo dꞌame no basa saa fo Eni taoꞌ ra. Ana fee Anan, dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ fo raa Na nandali, ma mate sia hau ngganggeꞌ, naa fo basa mana sia lalai, ma raefafoꞌ bisa dꞌame baliꞌ ro Lamatualain.
21 And also to you, who were before alienated and enemies in your minds, because of your evil deeds,
Feꞌesaꞌan, hei misodꞌa miꞌidꞌooꞌ mia Lamatualain. hei musu E, de misodꞌa saranggaa mia E, huu rala mara deꞌulakaꞌ ma akaꞌ tao deꞌulakaꞌ, labꞌan E mikindooꞌ a.
22 to you, he hath now given peace, by the body of his flesh, and by his death; that he might establish you in his presence, holy, without blemish, and without offence;
Onaꞌ naa o, ia na Ana mana soi dalaꞌ fo hita dꞌame bali to E. Ana mana denu Anan dadꞌi atahori. Ana mana fee Anan, dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ, ma mate sia hau ngganggeꞌ fo hita badꞌame bali to E, Yesus Kristus tao taꞌo naa, fo no nggita teu tisiꞌ Lamatualain matan, fo dadꞌi teu atahori meumareꞌ, rala ndoos, nda taꞌena salaꞌ saa sa boe.
23 provided ye continue in your faith, your foundation being firm, and ye be not removed from the hope of the gospel; of which ye have heard, that it is proclaimed in all the creation beneath heaven; of which gospel I Paul am a minister.
Eꞌekun, hei musi miꞌitataaꞌ mikindoo mo nemeherem mara. Toꞌu mihereꞌ fo afiꞌ minggonggaꞌ! Afiꞌ dꞌinggoꞌ hela Hara-lii Maloleꞌ, fo hei simbo eniꞌ a fefeun. Te Hei bisa mimihena neu Hara-lii Maloleꞌ naa. Atahori reu dui-bꞌengga Hara-lii Maloleꞌ a sia bee-bꞌee sia raefafoꞌ ia. Ma Lamatuaꞌ denu au, Paulus, fo uu dui-bꞌengga Hara-lii Maloleꞌ naa.
24 And I rejoice in the sufferings which are for your sakes; and, in my flesh, I fill up the deficiency in the afflictions of the Messiah, in behalf of his body, which is the church;
Leleꞌ Yesus feꞌe mia raefafoꞌ, Ana doidꞌoso naeꞌ. Ma aleꞌ ia au o lemba doidꞌosoꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ boe. Onaꞌ naa o, umuhoꞌo ukundooꞌ a. Mete ma hambu atahori musi doidꞌoso, hela neu fo au lemba doidꞌosoꞌ naa fee se, onaꞌ Kristus lemba atahori nara doidꞌoso nara. Te atahori nara, dadꞌi onaꞌ Aon boe.
25 of which I am a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me among you, that I should fulfill the word of God,
Lamatualain fee au ue-tataos fo mete-seꞌu atahori nara. Naa de au unori lutuꞌ-leloꞌ Dedꞌea-oꞌolan neu nggi.
26 namely, that mystery, which was hidden for ages and generations, but is now revealed to his saints; (aiōn g165)
Mia fefeun, atahori rena Lamatuaꞌ Dedꞌea-oꞌola nara. Te nda feꞌe rahine dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ ra sosoa-ndandaan no malole sa, huu sosoa-ndandaan feꞌe maꞌafuniꞌ. Te ia na, Lamatualain naꞌetuꞌ fo natudꞌu masud naa, neu atahori nara tungga Yesus neneman. Eni masud Na, hara-lii manaseliꞌ fee neu basa leo-leo ra sia raefafoꞌ ia. Hara-lii manaseliꞌ naa, naeni: Kristus nasodꞌa sia hei rala mara! Naa, tao nggi mimihere mikindoo mae, dei fo Ana tao dalaꞌ malolen seli fee hei sia nusa tetuꞌ. Ia ia, fo hita atahori tahani eniꞌ a fai maꞌahulun neu. (aiōn g165)
27 to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which mystery is the Messiah; who in you is the hope of our glory;
28 whom we proclaim, and teach and make known to every man, in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Jesus the Messiah.
Dadꞌi hai mifadꞌe basa atahori soꞌal Kristus. Hai minori basa atahori, ma fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu se, mendiꞌ basa dudꞌuꞌat fo Lamatualain fee neu nggitaꞌ a. Hita tao taꞌo naa, fo basa atahori mana tungga Kristus boe hambu maꞌadꞌereꞌ, naa fo ara bisa rambariiꞌ sia Matan no nda mae-maeꞌ sa, huu ara leo-lao rakandoo no ndoo-tetuꞌ
29 And for this also, I toil and strive, with the aid of the strength that is imparted to me.
Naa de au manggate tao ues soaꞌ neu nggi. Au bisa uꞌutataaꞌ manggate tao ues taꞌo naa, huu Kristus koasan tao fee au maꞌadereꞌ. Ma koasan naa, manaseliꞌ!
