< Colossians 3 >

1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.
ει ουν συνηγερθητε τω χριστω τα ανω ζητειτε ου ο χριστος εστιν εν δεξια του θεου καθημενος
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
τα ανω φρονειτε μη τα επι της γης
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
απεθανετε γαρ και η ζωη υμων κεκρυπται συν τω χριστω εν τω θεω
4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
οταν ο χριστος φανερωθη η ζωη ημων τοτε και υμεις συν αυτω φανερωθησεσθε εν δοξη
5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
νεκρωσατε ουν τα μελη υμων τα επι της γης πορνειαν ακαθαρσιαν παθος επιθυμιαν κακην και την πλεονεξιαν ητις εστιν ειδωλολατρια
6 For these things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
δι α ερχεται η οργη του θεου επι τους υιους της απειθειας
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them,
εν οις και υμεις περιεπατησατε ποτε οτε εζητε εν αυτοις
8 but now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
νυνι δε αποθεσθε και υμεις τα παντα οργην θυμον κακιαν βλασφημιαν αισχρολογιαν εκ του στοματος υμων
9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,
μη ψευδεσθε εις αλληλους απεκδυσαμενοι τον παλαιον ανθρωπον συν ταις πραξεσιν αυτου
10 and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
και ενδυσαμενοι τον νεον τον ανακαινουμενον εις επιγνωσιν κατ εικονα του κτισαντος αυτον
11 where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, or free person; but Christ is all, and in all.
οπου ουκ ενι ελλην και ιουδαιος περιτομη και ακροβυστια βαρβαρος σκυθης δουλος ελευθερος αλλα τα παντα και εν πασιν χριστος
12 Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;
ενδυσασθε ουν ως εκλεκτοι του θεου αγιοι και ηγαπημενοι σπλαγχνα οικτιρμου χρηστοτητα ταπεινοφροσυνην πραοτητα μακροθυμιαν
13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.
ανεχομενοι αλληλων και χαριζομενοι εαυτοις εαν τις προς τινα εχη μομφην καθως και ο χριστος εχαρισατο υμιν ουτως και υμεις
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
επι πασιν δε τουτοις την αγαπην ητις εστιν συνδεσμος της τελειοτητος
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.
και η ειρηνη του θεου βραβευετω εν ταις καρδιαις υμων εις ην και εκληθητε εν ενι σωματι και ευχαριστοι γινεσθε
16 Let the word of Christ 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 the Lord.
ο λογος του χριστου ενοικειτω εν υμιν πλουσιως εν παση σοφια διδασκοντες και νουθετουντες εαυτους ψαλμοις και υμνοις και ωδαις πνευματικαις εν χαριτι αδοντες εν τη καρδια υμων τω κυριω
17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
και παν ο τι αν ποιητε εν λογω η εν εργω παντα εν ονοματι κυριου ιησου ευχαριστουντες τω θεω και πατρι δι αυτου
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
αι γυναικες υποτασσεσθε τοις ανδρασιν ως ανηκεν εν κυριω
19 Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
οι ανδρες αγαπατε τας γυναικας και μη πικραινεσθε προς αυτας
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
τα τεκνα υπακουετε τοις γονευσιν κατα παντα τουτο γαρ εστιν ευαρεστον τω κυριω
21 Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged.
οι πατερες μη ερεθιζετε τα τεκνα υμων ινα μη αθυμωσιν
22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.
οι δουλοι υπακουετε κατα παντα τοις κατα σαρκα κυριοις μη εν οφθαλμοδουλιαις ως ανθρωπαρεσκοι αλλ εν απλοτητι καρδιας φοβουμενοι τον θεον
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,
και παν ο τι εαν ποιητε εκ ψυχης εργαζεσθε ως τω κυριω και ουκ ανθρωποις
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
ειδοτες οτι απο κυριου αποληψεσθε την ανταποδοσιν της κληρονομιας τω γαρ κυριω χριστω δουλευετε
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
ο δε αδικων κομιειται ο ηδικησεν και ουκ εστιν προσωποληψια
