1 Bara meng dinin su anugheiyinin ngbardang nnono mongo na dimun bara anughe nan nalenghe na idi Nlaudikiya nin ngbardan na isa yene umuro nighe nanya kidowo ba.
For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2 Nworu nibinai mine basennagang, nanya nworu ida vat nimon nacara na idin dasu kiti ncau kibinai nin nyinnu nimong linyeshin unere Kristi.
that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
3 Vat najiya linyeshin nyiru nin nyinnu udi kiti mye.
in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
4 Nna belin munu nani bara umong wa rusuzu munu nin nliru kinu.
Now I say this so that no one will deceive you with persuasive words.
5 Nin nani na ndi nanghinu nanya kidowo ba ndi nanghjinu nnya Nfip milau ndin nin liburi liboo nyene imon icine a likara mine nanya nyinu sa uyenu nanya Kristi.
For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 Cinan nanyan Kristi Yesu Uciffe libau lirum inan sereghe.
As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him,
7 Yisinan nin likara nanya mye, tutunon litino nanya mye, Yisinan nanya nyinu sa uyenu ulena iwa durso minu imonnu nin ngodiya.
rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
8 Yenen na umong nwa minu bara uyiru mye un karusuzo ba, ule na udi unit usyrne ulenge na udin cinu nin kulapi ninyulele unin na un Kristi ba.
Be careful not to allow anyone to captivate you through an empty and deceptive philosophy, according to human tradition, according to the elementary principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
9 Bara vat ukullu nke Kutelle sosin nanya kidowo mye.
For in him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form,
10 Nanya mye ulengana adi iti nvat ncin nin likara fere nso ukulu ne vat.
and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power;
11 Nanya myere kutelle wa kala nani kucuri na imusin kalu kucuri nacra nanit ba, bara ukalukidowo nin finawa kulapi, nanya nkalu kucuri Kristi.
in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
12 Iwa kasu minu nanya su ubabtisma. Nin yinu sa uyenu inani wa fita nin ghe nanya likara Kutelle, ulena ana fiyaghe kiti nanam nkul.
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
13 Nin kubi na iwa ku nanya nalapi mine nin nanya nsalin kalu kucuri kidowo, amini wwati minu ise ulai ligowenanghe nin nshawu nin nalapi mine vat.
You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,
14 Amini wa wese inyerte na iwa cio nrewe bara arike, nin nbunu ndoka, aamini wa kala vat kite na iwa banaghe kutca.
wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us; and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross;
15 Amini wa kala anan tigo nan na nakara a puuno nani fong, a dofino ninghinu nanya nse nlii nbun bara na iwa banaghe kutca.
having disarmed the rulers and authorities, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Bara nani na umong nwa wucu kidegen kiti mine nbelle kileo nin nsonu sa ubuki npui upese, nin kitene nari na sabbar.
Therefore do not let anyone judge you about food and drink, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
17 Ilele vat inshin nimon ile na iba dakari, bara icineb Kristi ari.
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.
18 Na umong nwa bolu minu uduk mine bara usu mye unteltunu liti kinunanya ntumolunu na nan kadura Kutelle imusin nnit une. Asa amuzo nin nimon ile na ayene, aso unan nfo figiri hem nani nanya nkpilizun kidowo.
Let no one rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 Na ame myin un Kristi kuba na amere di nnuzu kidowo amini myin ligowe kitene limunun kidowo kani di nkunju nafo na Kutelle nati kinin ki kunno.
and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God's growth.
20 Adi una kuu nin Kristi unuzu na dadu kulapi ani yanghari taa inalitife udu uye:
If you died with Christ from the elementary principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,
21 Na uwa myin ba, sa ulelee basa ududowa?
"Do not handle, nor taste, nor touch"
22 Ulele udokari nin dursuzu nanit, kitene nimon vat na iba nanu sa katwa.
(all of which perish with use), according to human commandments and teachings?
23 Ulenge usu tidokoke ti di jijin adini liti me nin nonku liti aninu kidowo, Bara na idinin na ukan nimon ba nbelele kidowo.
Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but are not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
