Ukolosiya 2

1 Bara meng dinin su anugheiyinin ngbardang nnono mongo na dimun bara anughe nan nalenghe na idi Nlaudikiya nin ngbardan na isa yene umuro nighe nanya kidowo ba.

For I wish you to know how great a conflict I have for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

2 Nworu nibinai mine basennagang, nanya nworu ida vat nimon nacara na idin dasu kiti ncau kibinai nin nyinnu nimong linyeshin unere Kristi.

that their hearts may be comforted, they being firmly united in love in order to gain all the riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may acknowledge the mystery of God, even the Father, and of Christ,

3 Vat najiya linyeshin nyiru nin nyinnu udi kiti mye.

in whom are stored up all the treasures of wisdom and of knowledge.

4 Nna belin munu nani bara umong wa rusuzu munu nin nliru kinu.

Now I say this, that no one may deceive you by persuasive words.

5 Nin nani na ndi nanghinu nanya kidowo ba ndi nanghjinu nnya Nfip milau ndin nin liburi liboo nyene imon icine a likara mine nanya nyinu sa uyenu nanya Kristi.

For, though I am absent in flesh, yet I am present with you in spirit, rejoicing to behold your order, and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

6 Cinan nanyan Kristi Yesu Uciffe libau lirum inan sereghe.

As, therefore, you received Christ Jesus our Lord, so walk in him,

7 Yisinan nin likara nanya mye, tutunon litino nanya mye, Yisinan nanya nyinu sa uyenu ulena iwa durso minu imonnu nin ngodiya.

rooted, and built up in him, and strengthened in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

8 Yenen na umong nwa minu bara uyiru mye un karusuzo ba, ule na udi unit usyrne ulenge na udin cinu nin kulapi ninyulele unin na un Kristi ba.

See that no one make you the victims of imposture by means of philosophy and vain deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the rudiments of the world, and not according to Christ:

9 Bara vat ukullu nke Kutelle sosin nanya kidowo mye.

for in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhood bodily.

10 Nanya mye ulengana adi iti nvat ncin nin likara fere nso ukulu ne vat.

And you are complete in him who is the head of all principality and authority:

11 Nanya myere kutelle wa kala nani kucuri na imusin kalu kucuri nacra nanit ba, bara ukalukidowo nin finawa kulapi, nanya nkalu kucuri Kristi.

in whom you have been also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in the putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ,

12 Iwa kasu minu nanya su ubabtisma. Nin yinu sa uyenu inani wa fita nin ghe nanya likara Kutelle, ulena ana fiyaghe kiti nanam nkul.

when you were buried with him in immersion, in which you were also raised with him by your faith in the energy of God, who raised him from the dead.

13 Nin kubi na iwa ku nanya nalapi mine nin nanya nsalin kalu kucuri kidowo, amini wwati minu ise ulai ligowenanghe nin nshawu nin nalapi mine vat.

And you, being dead to your offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has made alive together with him, having forgiven you all your offenses;

14 Amini wa wese inyerte na iwa cio nrewe bara arike, nin nbunu ndoka, aamini wa kala vat kite na iwa banaghe kutca.

having blotted out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us, which was opposed to us, he also took it out of the way, driving a nail through it by means of his cross;

15 Amini wa kala anan tigo nan na nakara a puuno nani fong, a dofino ninghinu nanya nse nlii nbun bara na iwa banaghe kutca.

and having spoiled the principalities and authorities, he made a show of them openly by triumphing over them through it.

16 Bara nani na umong nwa wucu kidegen kiti mine nbelle kileo nin nsonu sa ubuki npui upese, nin kitene nari na sabbar.

Let no one judge you, therefore, in meat or in drink, or in respect to a feast, or the new moon, or sabbaths,

17 Ilele vat inshin nimon ile na iba dakari, bara icineb Kristi ari.

which things are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is in Christ,

18 Na umong nwa bolu minu uduk mine bara usu mye unteltunu liti kinunanya ntumolunu na nan kadura Kutelle imusin nnit une. Asa amuzo nin nimon ile na ayene, aso unan nfo figiri hem nani nanya nkpilizun kidowo.

Let no one gain his purpose in depriving you of the palm by an affected humility and worship of angels, prying into things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

19 Na ame myin un Kristi kuba na amere di nnuzu kidowo amini myin ligowe kitene limunun kidowo kani di nkunju nafo na Kutelle nati kinin ki kunno.

and not holding the head, from which the whole body gathering vigor, and firmly united by joints and bands, increases with the increase of God.

20 Adi una kuu nin Kristi unuzu na dadu kulapi ani yanghari taa inalitife udu uye:

If, then, you have died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you submit to ordinances?

21 Na uwa myin ba, sa ulelee basa ududowa?

Touch not, taste not, handle not,

22 Ulele udokari nin dursuzu nanit, kitene nimon vat na iba nanu sa katwa.

(all of which are for the destruction of those who use them, ) according to the commandments and teachings of men;

23 Ulenge usu tidokoke ti di jijin adini liti me nin nonku liti aninu kidowo, Bara na idinin na ukan nimon ba nbelele kidowo.

and these have a show of wisdom in will-worship and affected humility and neglect of the body, and in no regard for the gratification of the flesh.
