ܩܘܠ̈ܣܝܐ 1
| ܦܘܠܘܤ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܛܝܡܬܐܘܤ ܐܚܐ | 1 |
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
| ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܩܘܠܤܘܤ ܐܚܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܫܠܡܐ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܘܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܢ | 2 |
to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ [that are] at Colossæ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
| ܡܘܕܝܢܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܘܡܨܠܝܢܢ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ | 3 |
We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
| ܗܐ ܡܢ ܕܫܡܥܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܕܠܘܬ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܐ | 4 |
having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have toward all the saints,
| ܡܛܠ ܤܒܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܢܛܝܪ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ ܕܤܒܪܬܐ | 5 |
because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel,
| ܗܝ ܕܐܬܟܪܙܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܦ ܠܟܠܗ ܥܠܡܐ ܘܪܒܝܐ ܘܝܗܒܐ ܦܐܪܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܒܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܘܐܫܬܘܕܥܬܘܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܩܘܫܬܐ | 6 |
which is come unto you; even as it is also in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as [it doth] in you also, since the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
| ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܝܠܦܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܦܦܪܐ ܟܢܬܢ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܕܗܘ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܚܠܦܝܟܘܢ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ | 7 |
even as ye learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf,
| ܘܗܘ ܐܘܕܥܢ ܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܕܒܪܘܚܐ | 8 |
who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
| ܡܛܠܗܢܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܡܢ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܡܥܢ ܠܐ ܫܠܝܢܢ ܠܡܨܠܝܘ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܘܠܡܫܐܠ ܕܬܬܡܠܘܢ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܟܠ ܚܟܡܐ ܘܒܟܠ ܤܘܟܠ ܕܪܘܚ | 9 |
For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
| ܕܬܗܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܙܕܩ ܘܬܫܦܪܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܒܟܠ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܛܒܝܢ ܘܬܬܠܘܢ ܦܐܪܐ ܘܬܪܒܘܢ ܒܝܕܥܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 10 |
to walk worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
| ܘܒܟܠ ܚܝܠ ܬܬܚܝܠܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܗ ܒܟܠ ܡܤܝܒܪܢܘ ܘܒܡܓܪܬ ܪܘܚ ܘܒܚܕܘܬܐ | 11 |
strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy;
| ܬܘܕܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܕܐܫܘܝܢ ܠܡܢܬܐ ܕܝܪܬܘܬܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܢܘܗܪܐ | 12 |
giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light;
| ܘܦܪܩܢ ܡܢ ܫܘܠܛܢܗ ܕܚܫܘܟܐ ܘܐܝܬܝܢ ܠܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܚܒܝܒܐ | 13 |
who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;
| ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܘܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܕܚܛܗܐ | 14 |
in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins:
| ܗܘ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܘܒܘܟܪܐ ܕܟܠܗܝܢ ܒܪܝܬܐ | 15 |
who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;
| ܘܒܗ ܐܬܒܪܝ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܒܐܪܥܐ ܟܠ ܕܡܬܚܙܐ ܘܟܠ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܐܢ ܡܘܬܒܐ ܘܐܢ ܡܪܘܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܐܪܟܘܤ ܘܐܢ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܒܐܝܕܗ ܘܒܗ ܐܬܒܪܝ | 16 |
for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him;
| ܘܗܘܝܘ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܟܠ ܘܟܠܡܕܡ ܒܗ ܩܐܡ | 17 |
and he is before all things, and in him all things consist.
| ܘܗܘܝܘ ܪܫܐ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܥܕܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܪܫܐ ܘܒܘܟܪܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܩܕܡܝ ܒܟܠ | 18 |
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
| ܕܒܗ ܗܘ ܨܒܐ ܟܠܗ ܡܘܠܝܐ ܠܡܥܡܪ | 19 |
For it was the good pleasure [of the Father] that in him should all the fulness dwell;
| ܘܒܐܝܕܗ ܠܡܪܥܝܘ ܠܗ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܘܫܝܢ ܒܕܡܐ ܕܙܩܝܦܗ ܒܐܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢ ܕܒܐܪܥܐ ܘܐܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ | 20 |
and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, [I say], whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens.
| ܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܢܘܟܪܝܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܘܒܥܠܕܒܒܐ ܒܪܥܝܢܝܟܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܥܒܕܝܟܘܢ ܒܝܫܐ ܫܝܢܟܘܢ ܗܫܐ | 21 |
And you, being in time past alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works,
| ܒܦܓܪܐ ܕܒܤܪܗ ܘܒܡܘܬܗ ܕܢܩܝܡܟܘܢ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܩܕܝܫܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܘܡ ܘܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ | 22 |
yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and unreproveable before him:
| ܐܢ ܬܩܘܘܢ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܟܕ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܫܬܐܤܬܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܬܙܝܥܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܐܘܢܓܠܝܘܢ ܗܘ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܕܐܬܟܪܙ ܒܟܠܗ ܒܪܝܬܐ ܕܬܚܝܬ ܫܡܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܢܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܫܡܫܢܗ | 23 |
if so be that ye continue in the faith, grounded and stedfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel which ye heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven; whereof I Paul was made a minister.
| ܘܚܕܐ ܐܢܐ ܒܚܫܐ ܕܥܠ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܘܡܡܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܚܤܝܪܘܬܐ ܕܐܘܠܨܢܘܗܝ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܒܤܪܝ ܚܠܦ ܦܓܪܗ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܥܕܬܐ | 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 church;
| ܗܝ ܕܐܢܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܫܡܫܢܗ ܐܝܟ ܡܕܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܒܟܘܢ ܕܐܫܡܠܐ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 25 |
whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to you-ward, to fulfil the word of God,
| ܐܪܙܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܟܤܝ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܪܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܓܠܝ ܠܩܕܝܫܘܗܝ (aiōn g165) | 26 |
[even] the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations: but now hath it been manifested to his saints, (aiōn g165)
| ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܢܘܕܥ ܡܢܘ ܥܘܬܪܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܗ ܕܐܪܙܐ ܗܢܐ ܒܥܡܡܐ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܒܟܘܢ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܢ | 27 |
to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
| ܗܘ ܕܚܢܢ ܡܟܪܙܝܢܢ ܘܡܠܦܝܢܢ ܘܡܤܟܠܝܢܢ ܠܟܠ ܒܪܢܫ ܒܟܠ ܚܟܡܐ ܕܢܩܝܡ ܠܟܠ ܒܪܢܫ ܟܕ ܓܡܝܪ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 28 |
whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ;
| ܒܗܕܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܦ ܥܡܠ ܐܢܐ ܘܡܬܟܬܫ ܐܢܐ ܒܡܥܕܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܚܝܠܐ ܕܡܬܝܗܒ ܠܝ | 29 |
whereunto I labor also, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
