Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
Godato, hinttewuka qassi salon Goday de7eyssa eridi, hintte aylletas xillotethaninne issuwa issuwafe shaakkonna koshshiyabaa oothite.
2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
Xoossaa barkkidi galatishe qanxonna woossite.
3 At the same time praying also for us, that God would open to us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:
Xoossay ba qaalas pengge dooyana melanne taani hessa gaason qashon de7iya Kiristtoosa xuuraa awaajjana mela nuuskka woossite.
4 That I may make it clear, as I ought to speak.
Qassi takka besseyssada qaala qonccisada odana mela taw Xoossaa woossite.
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are outside the church, redeeming the time.
Injjetiya wode ubbaa go7ettishe ammanonna asaa matan cinccatethan de7ite.
6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
Hintte asa ubbaas koshshiya zaaro imo erana mela hintte oday ubba wode aadho keehatethan kumidayssanne maxineda mal7iyabaa gidanaw bessees.
7 All my state shall Tychicus declare to you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
Nu siiqo ishay Tikiqoosi, taara issife Godaa oosuwan aylle gidida, ammanettiya oosanchchoy, ta de7uwabaa hinttew odana.
8 Whom I have sent to you for the same purpose, that he may know your circumstances, and comfort your hearts;
Taani iya hintteko kiittiday, nu waanidi de7iyakko hinttew odidi hinttena minthethana melassa.
9 With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known to you all things which are done here.
Anasmoosi, ammanettiya siiqo ishay, hintte baggay, iyara hintteko bees. Entti hayssan haniyaba ubbaa hinttew odana.
10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner greeteth you, and Mark, sister’s son to Barnabas, ( concerning whom ye received commandments: if he should come to you, receive him; )
Taara qashettida Arisxirokoosinne Barnnabaasa ishaa na7ay Marqqoosi, hinttena saro yaagosona. Ta hinttew kase odidayssada Marqqoosi hintteko biikko iya mokkite.
11 And Jesus, who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellowworkers to the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.
Yesuusa giya Yasxxoosi hinttena saro saro yaagees. Xoossaa kawotethaa gisho taara oothiya asata giddofe Ayhude gididayssati ha heedzata; entti tana daro minthethidosona.
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, greeteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
Hintte baggay, Kiristtoos Yesuusa aylley, Ephphaafiri hinttena saro saro yaagees. I hintte Xoossaa sinthan minnidi eqqanaadanne Xoossaa sheniya eridi polana mela ubba wode Xoossaa hintte gisho woossees.
13 For I bear him witness, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them that are in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
I hintte gishonne Loodoqiyaninne Hirapoolisa kataman de7iya asaa gisho daro daaburidayssa ta markkattays.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.
Nu siiqo ishay dottorey Luuqaasinne Deemasi, hinttena saro saro yaagosona.
15 Greet the brethren who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.
Loodoqiyan de7iya nu ishatas, Nimfaasinne I keethan shiiqiya asaas nu sarothuwa odite.
16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.
Ha dabddaabbiya hintte nabbabidaappe guye, Loodoqiya woosa keethan nabbabisite. Hintteka Loodoqiya woosa keethay hinttew yeddiya dabddaabbiya nabbabite.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.
Qassi Arkkiphphaasa, “Goday new immida oosuwa polanayssa dogoppa” yaagidi qofisite.
18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen. Written from Rome to Colossians by Tychicus and Onesimus.
Taani, Phawuloosi, ha sarothuwa ta kushen xaafas. Ta qashuwa qoppite. Xoossaa aadho keehatethay hinttera gido.
