كُولُوسِي 3

١ 1 فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ قَدْ قُمْتُمْ مَعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فَٱطْلُبُوا مَا فَوْقُ، حَيْثُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ جَالِسٌ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱللهِ.

If then you were raised together with Messiah, seek the things that are above, where Messiah is, seated on the right hand of God.

٢ 2 ٱهْتَمُّوا بِمَا فَوْقُ لَا بِمَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ،

Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ مُتُّمْ وَحَيَاتُكُمْ مُسْتَتِرَةٌ مَعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فِي ٱللهِ.

For you died, and your life is hidden with Messiah in God.

٤ 4 مَتَى أُظْهِرَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ حَيَاتُنَا، فَحِينَئِذٍ تُظْهَرُونَ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا مَعَهُ فِي ٱلْمَجْدِ.

When Messiah, your life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.

٥ 5 فَأَمِيتُوا أَعْضَاءَكُمُ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ: ٱلزِّنَا، ٱلنَّجَاسَةَ، ٱلْهَوَى، ٱلشَّهْوَةَ ٱلرَّدِيَّةَ، ٱلطَّمَعَ -ٱلَّذِي هُوَ عِبَادَةُ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ-

Put to death, therefore, whatever is worldly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

٦ 6 ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلَّتِي مِنْ أَجْلِهَا يَأْتِي غَضَبُ ٱللهِ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ ٱلْمَعْصِيَةِ،

Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the children of disobedience.

٧ 7 ٱلَّذِينَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا سَلَكْتُمْ قَبْلًا، حِينَ كُنْتُمْ تَعِيشُونَ فِيهَا.

You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَٱطْرَحُوا عَنْكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا ٱلْكُلَّ: ٱلْغَضَبَ، ٱلسَّخَطَ، ٱلْخُبْثَ، ٱلتَّجْدِيفَ، ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلْقَبِيحَ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِكُمْ.

but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.

٩ 9 لَا تَكْذِبُوا بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ، إِذْ خَلَعْتُمُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ ٱلْعَتِيقَ مَعَ أَعْمَالِهِ،

Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices,

١٠ 10 وَلَبِسْتُمُ ٱلْجَدِيدَ ٱلَّذِي يَتَجَدَّدُ لِلْمَعْرِفَةِ حَسَبَ صُورَةِ خَالِقِهِ،

and have put on the new self, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,

١١ 11 حَيْثُ لَيْسَ يُونَانِيٌّ وَيَهُودِيٌّ، خِتَانٌ وَغُرْلَةٌ، بَرْبَرِيٌّ سِكِّيثِيٌّ، عَبْدٌ حُرٌّ، بَلِ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱلْكُلُّ وَفِي ٱلْكُلِّ.

where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, freeman; but Messiah is all, and in all.

١٢ 12 فَٱلْبَسُوا كَمُخْتَارِي ٱللهِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ ٱلْمَحْبُوبِينَ أَحْشَاءَ رَأْفَاتٍ، وَلُطْفًا، وَتَوَاضُعًا، وَوَدَاعَةً، وَطُولَ أَنَاةٍ،

Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, gentleness, humility, and patience;

١٣ 13 مُحْتَمِلِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، وَمُسَامِحِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا. إِنْ كَانَ لِأَحَدٍ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَكْوَى، كَمَا غَفَرَ لَكُمُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ هَكَذَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا.

bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as the Lord forgave you, so you also do.

١٤ 14 وَعَلَى جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ ٱلْبَسُوا ٱلْمَحَبَّةَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ رِبَاطُ ٱلْكَمَالِ.

Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.

١٥ 15 وَلْيَمْلِكْ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ سَلَامُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي إِلَيْهِ دُعِيتُمْ فِي جَسَدٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَكُونُوا شَاكِرِينَ.

And let the peace of Messiah rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

١٦ 16 لِتَسْكُنْ فِيكُمْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ بِغِنًى، وَأَنْتُمْ بِكُلِّ حِكْمَةٍ مُعَلِّمُونَ وَمُنْذِرُونَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، بِمَزَامِيرَ وَتَسَابِيحَ وَأَغَانِيَّ رُوحِيَّةٍ، بِنِعْمَةٍ، مُتَرَنِّمِينَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ لِلرَّبِّ.

Let the word of the Messiah dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to God.

١٧ 17 وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلْتُمْ بِقَوْلٍ أَوْ فِعْلٍ، فَٱعْمَلُوا ٱلْكُلَّ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ، شَاكِرِينَ ٱللهَ وَٱلْآبَ بِهِ.

Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Yeshua, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.

١٨ 18 أَيَّتُهَا ٱلنِّسَاءُ، ٱخْضَعْنَ لِرِجَالِكُنَّ كَمَا يَلِيقُ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ.

Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

١٩ 19 أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ، أَحِبُّوا نِسَاءَكُمْ، وَلَا تَكُونُوا قُسَاةً عَلَيْهِنَّ.

Husbands, love your wives, and do not be bitter against them.

٢٠ 20 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَوْلَادُ، أَطِيعُوا وَالِدِيكُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ لِأَنَّ هَذَا مَرْضِيٌّ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ.

Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.

٢١ 21 أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبَاءُ، لَا تُغِيظُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ لِئَلَّا يَفْشَلُوا.

Fathers, do not provoke your children, so that they won't be discouraged.

٢٢ 22 أَيُّهَا ٱلْعَبِيدُ، أَطِيعُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ سَادَتَكُمْ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ، لَا بِخِدْمَةِ ٱلْعَيْنِ كَمَنْ يُرْضِي ٱلنَّاسَ، بَلْ بِبَسَاطَةِ ٱلْقَلْبِ، خَائِفِينَ ٱلرَّبَّ.

Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as people-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

٢٣ 23 وَكُلُّ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ، فَٱعْمَلُوا مِنَ ٱلْقَلْبِ، كَمَا لِلرَّبِّ لَيْسَ لِلنَّاسِ،

And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for people,

٢٤ 24 عَالِمِينَ أَنَّكُمْ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ سَتَأْخُذُونَ جَزَاءَ ٱلْمِيرَاثِ، لِأَنَّكُمْ تَخْدِمُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ.

knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Messiah.

٢٥ 25 وَأَمَّا ٱلظَّالِمُ فَسَينَالُ مَا ظَلَمَ بِهِ، وَلَيْسَ مُحَابَاةٌ.

But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
