< 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.
Kowos akmoulyeyukyak yurin Christ, ke ma inge, kowos in sang insiowos in nunku ke ma su oan lucng, yen Christ el muta fin tron lal, lac po layot sin God.
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
Lela nunak lowos in suiya ma su oan lucng, ac tia nu ke ma oan fin faclu.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
Tuh kowos misa tari, ac moul lowos wikla yurin Christ in God.
4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
Moul na pwaye lowos uh pa Christ, na ke el ac sikme kowos ac fah oayapa welul sikme, ac wi ipeis ke wolana lal!
5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
Ke ma inge kowos enenu in lela ma lungse lun faclu su orekma in kowos an in misa: kain ma koluk lun moul in kosro, kutena lumah fohkfok, lung lun ikwa, lungse koluk, ac rapku (tuh rapku el oapana alu nu ke ma sruloala).
6 For these things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
Ke sripen ouiya inge kasrkusrak lun God ac fah tuku nu faclos su tia aksol.
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them,
Kowos sifacna moulkin kain in lung koluk inge meet, ke pacl lumah inge srakna leumi moul lowos.
8 but now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
A inge kowos enenu in tiana sifil oru lumah inge: kasrkusrak, mongsa, srangesroa; in wangin kas in akkolukye mwet ku kaskas enum in tuku liki oaluwos.
9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,
Nimet kaskas kikiap nu sin sie sin sie, tuh kowos sisla tari moul matu lowos, wi orekma koluk meet ha,
10 and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
ac inge kowos moulkin sie moul sasu. God pa orala moul sasu se inge, ac El aksasuye pacl nukewa nu ke lumahl sifacna, tuh kowos in ku in arulana etu ouiyal na pwaye.
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.
Ke sripa inge, tia sifilpa oasr ekla inmasrlon mwet Jew ac mwet sayen mwet Jew, mwet kosrala ku mwet tia kosrala, mwet lohsr moul la, mwet sulallal, mwet kohs ac mwet sukosok, tuh Christ pa yohk sripa in ma nukewa, ac el moul in kut nukewa.
12 Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;
Kowos mwet lun God. El lungse kowos ac sulekowosla tuh kowos in mwet lal. Ke ma inge kowos enenu in moulkin pakoten, kulang, inse pusisel, mongfisrasr, ac muteng.
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.
Ke pacl nukewa ma kutena suwos oasr toasr la inmasrlowos, kowos in muteng ac nunak munas nu sin sie sin sie, oana ke Leum El nunak munas nu suwos.
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
Ac kowos in sang lungse in kapreni ma inge nukewa in ma sefanna lac, mweyen lungse pa yohk sripa oemeet.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.
Misla, su Christ el ase, in kol kowos ke sulela lowos nu ke ma kowos ac oru; tuh God El pangon kowos nu ke misla se inge, in oru tuh kowos in mano sefanna. Ac kowos in sang kulo nu sin God kac.
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.
Lela kas wolana ke Christ in oan in kowos pacl nukewa. Kowos in arulana lalmwetmet in luti ac sensenkakin sie sin sie. Kowos in onkakin psalm, on in kaksak, ac on mutal; alullul nu sin God ke inse kulo.
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.
Ma nukewa kowos oru, in kas ku orekma, kowos in oru ke inen Leum Jesus, ac kowos in sang kulo nu sin God Papa kacl.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Mutan kia, kowos in akpusiselye kowos nu sin mukul tomowos, tuh pa inge ma fal mwet Christian uh in oru.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
Mukul tuma, kowos in lungse mutan kiowos ac tia oru koluk nu selos.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
Tulik, kowos in akos papa tomowos ac nina kiowos pacl nukewa, tuh ma inge mwe akinsewowoye God.
21 Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged.
Papa ac nina, kowos in tia kas kou nu sin tulik nutuwos pacl nukewa, tuh elos ac mau sangengla ac fuhleak in oru kutena ma.
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.
Mwet kohs, kowos in akos mwet kacto lowos an in ma nukewa, tia ke pacl elos liye kowos an mukena ke sripen kowos sukok ohi selos; a kowos in oru ke insiowos na pwaye, ke sripen akfulat lowos nu sin Leum.
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,
Kutena ma kowos oru, kowos in oru ke inse pwaye, oana kowos in orekma nu sin Leum ac tia nu sin mwet.
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
Esam lah Leum el ac fah asot sie mwe moul nu sum, ma se su el akola nu sin mwet lal. Tuh Christ pa mwet Leum na pwaye lom su kom kulansupu.
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
Ac kutena mwet su orekma koluk ac fah eis kai fal nu ke ma koluk el oru, tuh God El tia srisri in nununku lal.
