コロサイ人への手紙 1
1 神の思召によりてイエズス、キリストの使徒たるパウロ、及び兄弟チモテオ、
PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu the Meshiha by the will of Aloha, and the brother Timotheos,
2 コロサイに於てキリスト（イエズス）に在る聖徒、及び忠信なる兄弟等に[書簡を贈る]。
to those who are in Kulosos, the holy brethren and believers in Jeshu Meshiha: peace be with you, and grace from Aloha our Father.
3 願はくは我父にて在す神、及び主イエズス、キリストより、汝等に恩寵と平安とを賜はらん事を。
We give thanks to Aloha the Father of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha in all time, and pray on your behalf,
4 第一款 コロサイ人の為に感謝し祈祷す 第一編 教理の部 第一項 キリスト及び其事業 我等キリスト、イエズスに於る汝等の信仰と凡ての聖徒に對する愛情とを聞きて、常に汝等の為に祈りて、我主イエズス、キリストの父にて在す神に感謝し奉る。
even from our hearing of your faith in Jeshu Meshiha, and of your love to all the saints;
5 是天に於て汝等の為に備へられ、曾て汝等が福音の眞理の言の中に聞きし希望の故なり。
for the hope which is kept for you in heaven, which at the first you heard through the word of the truth of the gospel,
6 汝等に至れる福音は、果を世界に結びて傳播しつつある事、猶汝等が眞理に從ひて神の恩寵を聞き且識りし日より汝等の中に於て在りしが如し。
which is preached to you, as also to all the world, and increaseth and giveth fruits, as also in you from the day that you heard, and knew the grace of Aloha in truth,
7 汝等之を至愛なる我等の同輩エパフラより學びたるが、彼は汝等の為にキリスト、イエズスの忠信なる役者にして、
as you learned from Epaphra our beloved companion, who is himself for you a faithful minister of the Meshiha,
8 [聖]霊によれる汝等の愛情を我等に告げたり。
and who hath made known to us your love, which is in the Spirit.
9 故に我等も亦之を聞きし其日より、汝等の為に祈りて止まず、以て汝等が[聖]霊によれる凡ての智恵と悟とによりて、神の御旨を知る[の知識]に満たされん事を求め奉る。
ON account of this also we, from the day that we heard, have not ceased to pray for you, and to supplicate that you may be filled with the knowledge of the will of Aloha in all wisdom and in all spiritual understanding,
10 是汝等が主に相應しく歩み、萬事につけて御意に合ひ、凡ての善業に於て果を結び、神[を識る]の知識を増し、
and may walk according to that which is just, and may please Aloha in all good works, and may yield fruit, and increase in the knowledge of Aloha;
11 其光榮ある全能に從ひて凡ての力を加へられ、喜を以て凡ての事に辛抱し堪忍し、
and in all power be empowered according to the greatness of his glory in all patience and prolongedness of spirit:
12 神にて在す父に感謝し奉ることを得ん為なり。其は忝くも我等を以て、聖徒等と共に榮光を蒙るに足るべき者と為し給ひ、
and with joy may give thanks to Aloha the Father, who hath fitted us for a portion of the inheritance of the saints in light,
13 暗黒の権威より救出して最愛なる御子の國に移し給ひ、
and hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and brought us into the kingdom of his beloved Son,
14 我等其御子に在りて、御血を以て贖はれ、罪の赦しを得ればなり。
in whom we have redemption and the forgiveness of sins:
15 第二款 キリスト及び其事業は広大にして無比なり 御子は即ち見え給はざる神の御姿にして、一切の被造物に先だちて生れ給ひし者なり。
who is the image of Aloha the unseen, and the first-born of all the creatures.
16 蓋萬物は彼に於て造られ、天にも地にも見ゆるもの、見えざるもの、或は玉座、或は主権、或は権勢、或は能力、皆彼を以て且彼の為に造られ、
And by him was every thing created that is in heaven and in earth; all that is seen, and all that is unseen, whether thrones or dominions, or princes or powers; all things by his hand and through him were created;
17 御自らは萬物に先だちて在し、萬物は彼の為に存す。
and he is before all, and every thing by him subsisteth.
18 彼は又其體なる教會の頭にて在す、蓋原因に在して其死者の中より先んじて生れ給ひしは、萬事に於て自ら先んずる者と成り給はん為なり、
And he is the head of the body of the church, (he) who is the chief and first-born from among the dead, that he should be preeminent in all.
19 其は充満せる徳を全く彼に宿らしめ、
For in him (the Father) hath willed all fulness to dwell;
20 彼を以て萬物を己と和睦せしめ、其十字架の血を以て地に在るものをも天に在るものをも和合せしむる事の、御意に適ひたればなり。
and by him to reconcile all things to himself, and to make peace through the blood of his cross, (even) by him, whether they be inhabitants in earth or in heaven.
21 汝等も曾て惡業によりて神に遠ざかり、心より其仇となりしを、
YOU also, who before were aliens and adversaries in your minds by your evil works,
22 神は今御子の肉體に於て其死によりて己と和睦せしめ、聖にして汚なく罪なき者たらしめ、以て御前に供へんとし給へり。
hath he reconciled now in the body of his flesh and through his death, to constitute you saints before him without spot and without blame;
23 汝等若確乎として信仰に基き、福音に於る希望より動かされずば、當に然あるべし。此福音は、汝等之を聞き、普く天下一切の人に宣べられしが、我パウロは其役者と為られたるなり。
if you continue in your faith, your foundation being firm, and be not moved from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, and which is proclaimed to every creature who is under heaven, of which I, Paulos, am made a minister.
24 我今汝等の為に苦むを喜ぶ、又キリストの御苦の缺けたる所を、御體なる教會の為に我が肉體に於て補ふなり。
I rejoice in the sufferings which are on your account, and fulfil the void of the afflictions of the Meshiha in my flesh for the sake of his body,
25 我が教會の役者と為られたるは、汝等の為に神より賜はりたる務に由れり、是神の御言、即ち世々代々に隠れ來りて、
which is the church; of which I am made a minister according to the dispensation of Aloha, which was given to me for you, to accomplish the word of Aloha;
that mystery which was hidden from ages and generations, but now hath been revealed unto his saints. (aiōn g165)
27 此奥義とは光榮の希望にして、汝等に在すキリスト是なり、此奥義の異邦人に及ぼしたる光榮の富の如何を知らしむるは神の御意なり。
To whom Aloha hath willed to make known what is the opulence of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is, The Meshiha, who in you (is) the hope of glory;
28 我等は之を宣べ傳へ、凡ての知識に從ひて、凡ての人を誡め凡ての人に教ふ、是凡ての人をしてキリスト、イエズスに於て完全にならしめんが為なり。
whom we proclaim, and (concerning whom) we teach and inform every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Jeshu Meshiha;
29 我が現に勞苦して、我に於て強く働ける彼の勢力に應じて戰ひつつあるは是が為なり。
for which also I labour and contend, according to the help of the power which is given to me.
