Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
PAULUJ wanporon en Krijtuj Iejuj amen pan kupur en Kot o ri atail Timoteuj,
2 to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Oni ri at jaraui o lelapok ren Krijuj akan, me mi Koloje; mak o popol jan ren Kot Jam atail o Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj!
3 We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
Kit kin danke Kot o Jam en atail Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj o kapakapa kin komail kaukaule.
4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have toward all the saints,
Kit lao ronadar duen omail pojon Krijtuj Iejuj, o omail limpok on jaraui kan karoj,
5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News
Pweki kaporopor eu, me nekineki on komail nanlan, duen me komail ronadar maj o ni padak melel en ronamau,
6 which has come to you, even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth,
Me lei won komail o pil jap akan karoj, o a kin wada o kakairida dueta re omail jan ni ran o, me komail ronadar o dedekier melel mak en Kot;
7 even as you learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on your behalf,
Duen omail padakki jan ren Epapraj at warok kompok amen, me papa lelapok en Krijtuj on komail amen,
8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
Me pil kaireki don kit duen omail limpok pena ni Nen.
9 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, don’t cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
I me je jota kin dukedi jan at kapakapa kin komail o poekipoeki jan ni ran en at ronadar, pwe komail en direki erpit en kupur a, o komail en lolekon o koiok nenin,
10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,
O kekeid wei duen me kon on Kaun o, o kapareda wan wiawia mau karoj, o kakairida ki aja Kot,
11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy,
O keleki kel karoj duen manaman en a linan pwen dadaurata o kanonamalu peren,
12 giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light,
Danke Jam o, me kotin kamau kitail lar, en ian pwaijaneki iojo en me jaraui kan nan marain.
13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,
Me kotin kapiti jan kitail manaman en rotorot, ap kotin kajau kitail don nan wein Na kompokepa,
14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins.
Me kotin dore kitail la iei lapwan dip atail,
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
I me kajale pan Kot, me jo janjal, me mejeni en audepa karoj.
16 For by him all things were created in the heavens and on the earth, visible things and invisible things, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things have been created through him and for him.
Pwe karoj wiauiki i, karoj me mi nanlan o jappa, me janjal o me jo janjal, ma me poe kan, de jaumaj akan, de wei kan, de manaman akan, meakaroj wiauiki i o on i.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
O i me kotikot mon meakaroj o meakaroj memaureki i.
18 He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence.
O i tapwin war a, iei momodijou, o i me tapi o mejeni en me iajadar jan ren me melar akan, pwe i en mon meakaorj.
19 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him,
Pwe Kot kotin kileledier me mau kan karoj en mi re a.
20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself by him, whether things on the earth or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.
I ari kalolamau penan pein I meakan karoj, ma ni jappa de nanlan, ni a kotin wiada muei mau ki ntan a lopu.
21 You, being in past times alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil deeds,
O komail, me doo wei jan o imwintiti maj o ni omail lamelame o wiawia jued akan,
22 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without defect and blameless before him,
A kotin kalolamau komail lar ki war a uduk ni a matala, pwen kapware kin komail da jaraui o pun o jo kadeik pa omail mo a.
23 if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a servant.
Ma komail dadaurata pojon o teneten o jo mokid wei jan ni kaporopor ki ronamau, me komail ronadar, o me lolok on audepa karoj me mi pan lan, me nai Pauluj wialar papa men.
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,
I ap perenki ai kalokolok ki komail o men kaimwijok kila uduk ai me luedi ni kamekam en Krijtuj, pweki war a, iei momodijou,
25 of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,
Me i wialar papa men duen koa dodok en Kot, me i aleer pweki komail pwen ujela maj an en Kot.
26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints, (aiōn g165)
Iei me rir kot, me rir jan nin tapin kaua o men kaua, a met a kadiarok on japwilim a jaraui kan, (aiōn g165)
27 to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Me Kot men kajanjaleda kapwapwa en linan en rir wet on men liki kan, iei Krijtuj me kotikot lol omail, i kaporopor en linan.
28 We proclaim him, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus;
I me kit kin padaki o pane panaui aramaj karoj, o padapadaki aramaj karoj ni lolekon karoj, pwe kit en kapwareda aramaj karoj ni unjoki on Krijtuj.
29 for which I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.
I me i pil dodok kelail, duen wiawia en i me kin dodok kelail lol i.
