Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
Polo, mvuala wu Yesu Klisto mu luzolo lu Nzambi va kimosi ayi khombꞌeto Timote,
2 to the believers and faithful brothers in Christ who are at Colossae. May grace be to you, and peace from God our Father.
tufidisidi nkanda kuidi banlongo ayi bakhomba zikuikama mu Klistobadi ku Kolosayi. Bika nlemvo ayi ndembama bi Nzambi, Dise dieto bibanga yeno.
3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and we always pray for you.
Beto tueti vutula matondo kuidi Nzambi, Dise di Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto, bu tueti sambila mu zithangu zioso mu diambu dieno
4 We have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all those set apart for God.
bu tuwilu tsangu yi minu kieno mu Klisto Yesu ayi luzolo lolo luidi yeno mu diambu di banlongo boso;
5 You have this love because of the certain hope reserved for you in heaven. You heard about this confident expectation before in the word of truth, the gospel,
mudiambu di diana diodi lukubukulu mu Diyilu ayi diana diodi lutuama wa mu mambu ma kiedika ma Nsamu wumboti.
6 which has come to you. This gospel is bearing fruit and is growing in all the world. It has been doing this in you also from the day you heard it and learned about the grace of God in truth.
Nsamu wumboti beni wutula nate kuidi beno banga bu wididi mu nza yimvimba. Wawu weti buta mimbutu ayi wulembo yendi ku ntuala; banga buididi mu beno tona lumbu kioki luwa ayi luzaba nlemvo wu Nzambi mu kiedika kiandi kioso.
7 This is the gospel as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf.
Epafalasi, nkundi eto wu luzolo mu kisalu, niandi wululonga wawu. Niandi widi kisadi kikuikama ki Klisto mu diambu dieno.
8 Epaphras has made known to us your love in the Spirit.
Niandi wutuzabikisidi boso buididi luzolo lueno mu pheve.
9 Because of this love, from the day we heard this we have not stopped praying for you. We have been asking that you will be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.
Diawu tona lumbu kioki tuwa buawu, beto mamveto, tukadi vonga mu kulusambidila ayi mu lomba muingi luba lufuluka mu nzayilu yi luzololuandi; mu nduenga yoso ayi mu diela di Kipheve.
10 We have been praying that you will walk worthily of the Lord in pleasing ways. We have been praying that you will bear fruit in every good deed and that you will grow in the knowledge of God.
Mu diambu ludiatila mu phila yifuana mu Pfumu, muingi lummonisa khinimu mambu moso; bu lumbutanga mimbutu mu mavanga mambote ayi luetayunduka mu nzayilu yi Nzambi.
11 We pray you may be strengthened in every ability according to the power of his glory into all perseverance and patience.
Niandi wela kulukindisa mu zingolo zioso boso buididi lulendo luandi lu nkembo mu diambu lubaka bu vibidila mu mambu moso ayi bu kangila ntima nate kuna tsukulu.
12 We pray that you will joyfully give thanks to the Father, who has made you able to have a share in the inheritance of the saints in light.
Mu khini, luvutulanga matondo kuidi Tata wutufuanisa muingi mamveno lubaka bu tambudila kiuka kioki kalundila banlongo boso mu kiezila. Bila:
13 He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son.
Niandi wutukula mu lulendo lu tombi ayi wutunata mu Kipfumu ki Muanꞌandi wu luzolo;
14 In his Son we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
mu niandi tutambudidi khudulu ayi tutambudidi nlemvo wu masumu.
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God. He is the firstborn of all creation.
Niandi mfikula yi Nzambi yi kayimonikanga ko ayi niandi wuthete mu butuka mu bivangu bioso.
16 For by him all things were created, those in the heavens and those on the earth, the visible and the invisible things. Whether thrones or dominions or governments or authorities, all things were created by him and for him.
Bila mu niandi bima bioso bivangulu: bima biobi bidi mu diyilu ayi bima biobi bidi va ntoto, biobi bieti monika ayi biobi kabi monikanga ko, biba bikundu bi kipfumu voti bipfumu, voti bikulutu voti batu ba lulendo. Niandi wuvanga bima bioso; ayi biawu bivangulu mu diambu diandi.
17 He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Niandi widi ku ntuala bima bioso ayi bima bioso binzinga mu niandi.
18 He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so he has first place among all things.
Niandi ntu wu nitu, dibundu diawu nitu. Niandi thonono; wuthete mu butuka mu batu bafua mu diambu kaba va buangu kithete mu bima bioso.
19 For God was pleased that all his fullness should live in him,
Bila Nzambi wuzola ti kinzambi kiandi kioso kiba mu niandi.
20 and to reconcile through the Son all things to himself. God made peace through the blood of his cross. God reconciled all things to himself, whether the things on the earth or the things in heaven.
Ayi mu niandi kazola vutudila nguizani yidi va khatitsika niandi veka ayi bima bioso; biba biobi bidi va ntoto voti biobi bidi ku diyilu bu kakivangila ndembama va dikulusi diandi mu menga mandi.
21 At one time, you also were strangers to God and were his enemies in mind and in evil deeds.
Beno lutuama ba batatuka ayi Nzambi, buela bambeni ziandi mu mayindu meno ayi mu diambu di mavanga meno mambimbi;
22 But now he has reconciled you by his physical body through death. He did this in order to present you holy, blameless, and above reproach before him,
mu diambu di buabu, kalumonisa banlongo va ntualꞌandi, batu bakambulu tsembolo ayi bakambulu nzimbala va meso ma Nzambi; diawu Nzambi kavutudila nguizani andi ayi beno mu lufua lu nitu yi muanꞌandi.
23 if you continue in the faith, established and firm, not moved away from the certain hope of the gospel that you heard. This is the gospel that was proclaimed to every person created under heaven. This is the gospel of which I, Paul, became a servant.
Mu bila kioki, lufueti ba bakangama mu minu, batungu ayi badi dio ngui. Lubika zimbukusu mu diana diodi di Nsamu wumboti wowo beno luwa. Nsamu wumboti beni wawu wusamunu muidi bivangu bioso bidi va ntoto ayi mu diambu di wawu minu Polo ndiyikila kisadi.
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking of the afflictions of Christ for the sake of his body, which is the church.
Buabu ndilembo moni khini mu ziphasi ziozi ndilembo moni mu diambu dieno. Ndilembo dukisa mu nituꞌama ziphasi zikambu mona Klisto mu diambu di nituꞌandi. Nituꞌandi yawu Dibundu.
25 It is of this church that I am a servant, according to the responsibility from God that was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God.
Mu diambu di dibundu, ndiyikidi kisadi boso buididi kisalukiphana Nzambi mu diambu dieno, muingi ndikudisa mambu ma Nzambi.
26 This is the secret truth that was hidden for ages and for generations. But now it has been revealed to those who believe in him. (aiōn g165)
Mambu beni madi mansueki momo masueko tona mu thonono yi zithangu ayi yi zitsungi vayi buabu mazabukusulu kuidi banlongo bandi. (aiōn g165)
27 It is to them that God wanted to make known the riches of the glory of this secret truth among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Bila Nzambi wuzola kuba zabikisa boso buidi kimvuama ki nkembo bu mansueki momo va khatitsika Bapakanu bu dinsundula ti Klisto widi mu beno, niandi diana di nkembo.
28 This is he whom we proclaim. We admonish every person, and we teach every person with all wisdom, so that we may present every person complete in Christ.
Klisto beni niandi tueti samuna, mu lubula ayi mu longa kadika mutu mu nduenga yoso mu diambu tumonisa kadika mutu wufuana mu Klisto.
29 For this I labor and strive according to his energy that is at work in me in power.
Kiawu kioki bila ndieti sadila ayi ndieti nuanina boso buididi zingolo ziandi; ziozi zilembo sadi mu lulendo mu minu.
