Colossians 2
1 For I want you to know the kind of solicitude that I have for you, and for those who are at Laodicea, as well as for those who have not seen my face in the flesh.
Kwo kubha enenda mumenyele lwa kutyo nili na jinyako nyafu ingulu yemwe, ku bhona bhanu bhaliyo Laondikia na kubhona bhanu bhachali kubhona obhusu bhwani mu mubhili.
2 May their hearts be consoled and instructed in charity, with all the riches of a plenitude of understanding, with knowledge of the mystery of God the Father and of Christ Jesus.
Enikola emilimu koleleki ati emioyo jebhwe jitule okusilisibhwa kwo kuletwa amwi mu kwenda na mu bhunibhi bhwona mu bhwafu bhwe chimali mu bhukumiye bhwo bhumenyi mu kuimenya imbisike ye chimali ya Nyamuanga, unu ali Kristo.
3 For in him are hidden all treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Mu mwene omwo nimwo bhuli obhubhikilo bhwona obhwo bhwengeso no bhumenyi bhiselekelwe.
4 Now I say this, so that no one may deceive you with grandiose words.
Enaika kutya koleleki ati omunu wona wona asiga kubhakondelesha obhulige-lige kwo bhusimusi bhwo kukongya-kongya.
5 For though I may be absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit. And I rejoice as I gaze upon your order and its foundation, which is in Christ, your faith.
Nolwo kutyo nitaliwo amwi nemwe mu mubhili, mbe nawe niliwo amwi nemwe mu Mwoyo. Enikondelwa okukolwa obhwitondi bhwemwe bhwe kisi na bhya managa ne likilisha lyemwe mu Kristo.
6 Therefore, just as you have received the Lord Jesus Christ, walk in him.
Lwa kutyo mwamulamiye Kristo Latabhugenyi, mulibhatilega mu mumwene.
7 Be rooted and continually built up in Christ. And be confirmed in the faith, just as you have also learned it, increasing in him with acts of thanksgiving.
Nimusimbagililega mu mwene, nimubakwega mu mwene, nimusimbagilile mu likilisha lwa kutyo mweigisibhwe, no kubhoywa mu isime nyafu.
8 See to it that no one deceives you through philosophy and empty falsehoods, as found in the traditions of men, in accord with the influences of the world, and not in accord with Christ.
Mbe nimulole ati munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma kwo bhwenge-bhwenge na masango gatalimo chona chona gali ga bhujigi -jigi okulubhana no bhusimuka bhwa bhana-munu, okulubhana no bhitondi bhwe Chalo, na atali ati okulubhana na Kristo.
9 For in him, all the fullness of the Divine Nature dwells bodily.
Kulwo kubha mu mwene obhukumiye bhwona obhwa Nyamuanga bhunu bhulame mu mubhili.
10 And in him, you have been filled; for he is the head of all principality and power.
Nemwe mwijusibhwe mu mwene. Omwene ni mutwe gwa bhuli bhuinga no bhutulo.
11 In him also, you have been circumcised with a circumcision not made by hand, not by the despoiling of the body of flesh, but by the circumcision of Christ.
Mu mwene one mwatendelwe, kwo lutendo lunu lutakolelwe na mwana-munu mu kusosibhwako omubhili na inyama, mbe nawe ni lutendo olwa Kristo.
12 You have been buried with him in baptism. In him also, you have risen again through faith, by the work of God, who raised him up from the dead.
Mwasikilwe amwi nage mu bhubhatijo. Na munjila ye likilisha mu mwene mwasuluywe kwo bhuinga bhwa Nyamuanga, unu amusuluye okusoka mu bhafuye.
13 And when you were dead in your transgressions and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, he enlivened you, together with him, forgiving you of all transgressions,
Na anu mwaliga mufuye kulwe bhikayo bhyebhwe no okulema okutendwa kwe mibhili nemwe, abhakolele kubha bhaanga amwi nage no kuchisasila ebhikayo bhyeswe bhyona.
14 and wiping away the handwriting of the decree which was against us, which was contrary to us. And he has taken this away from your midst, affixing it to the Cross.
Asimishe obhwichukisho bhwo libhanja linu lyaliga lyandikilwe, no bhwitondi bhunu bhwaliga bhutasikene neswe. Asosisheo bhona no kubhibhambila ku musalabha.
15 And so, despoiling principalities and powers, he has led them away confidently and openly, triumphing over them in himself.
Asosisheo amanaga no bhutungi. Agatee abhwelu no kugakola kubha lumula lwo bhuigi ku njila yo musalabha gwaye.
16 Therefore, let no one judge you as concerns food or drink, or a particular feast day, or feast days of new moons, or of Sabbaths.
Kulwejo, munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma emwe mu kulya amwi mu kunywa amwi okulubhana na jinsiku eja malya amwi mukubhonekana kwo kwesi, amwi mu nsiku ja isabhatho.
17 For these are a shadow of the future, but the body is of Christ.
Linu ni lilengesi lye misango jinu ejija, mbe nawe omunyumbu ni Kristo.
18 Let no one seduce you, preferring base things and a religion of Angels, walking according to what he has not seen, being vainly inflated by the sensations of his flesh,
Omunu wona asigakusakulwa omuyelo gwaye mu kuligila no kwikeya no kulamya bhamalaika. Omunu wejabho oyo kengila mu misango jinu alolele no kukongibhwa mu meganilisho gaye ago mubhili.
19 and not holding up the head, with which the whole body, by its underlying joints and ligaments, is joined together and grows with an increase that is of God.
Omwene atakugugwatilila omutwe. Ni kusoka mu mutwe ati omubhili gwona okulabha mu bhyungo bhyaye na mumawa nigugwatana no kugwatanyisibhwa amwi; no kukula kwo bhukusi bhunu obhusosibhwa na Nyamuanga.
20 So then, if you have died with Christ to the influences of this world, why do you still make decisions as if you were living in the world?
Alabha mwafuye amwi na Kristo mu ntungwa je Chalo, kawoli kulwaki omulama lwa bhanu abhatongelwa ne Chalo:
21 Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle these things,
“Mwasiga kugwata, nolwo kuloja, nolwo kugwata”?
22 which all lead to destruction by their very use, in accord with the precepts and doctrines of men.
Ganu gona galagiliywe ingulu yo bhunyamuke bhunu obhuja no bhweselanya, okulubhana na melesho na meigisho ga bhana-munu.
23 Such ideas have at least an intention to attain to wisdom, but through superstition and debasement, not sparing the body, and they are without any honor in satiating the flesh.
Ebhilagilo bhinu bhili no bhwengeso obhwa jidini jinu jikolelwe kwo kwilola no kwikeya na jinyako jo mubhili. Mbe nawe jitana bhugusi bhulambu bhitasikene na inamba yo mubhili.
