Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to bondmen what is just and fair, knowing that ye also have a Master in [the] heavens.
Mwagosi, fumiwa sontezi enongwazyalizyali nenyiza. Mmenye aje mnawo ogosi humwanya.
2 Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;
Mwendelele abhe lyoli huputo. Khali masa hwelyo nasombezye.
3 praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,
Putuje pamo huaji yetu nantele, ena nantele Ongolobhi aigule alyango ogwizulyakwa, ayanji esili zwalyoli eya Kilisti. Hunongwa ene empinyilwe amanyolo.
4 to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
Ejiga mputaje endibheshe pawalele, nashi sehwaziwa ayaje.
5 Walk in wisdom towards those without, redeeming opportunities.
Bhalaga hunshinshi hwa bhala bhabhali ohohoze, abhalenalinali nesiku.
6 [Let] your word [be] always with grace, seasoned with salt, [so as] to know how ye ought to answer each one.
Enangwa zyenyu zibhene wene esiku zyoti, nantele gakhole omwoni esiku zyoti, emmanye she hwanzwa ahugalule omtu.
7 Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-bondman in [the] Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me;
Hunongwazye zinazaane, O Tikiko adagabhombe gaga manyeshi hulimwi. Omwene holo mwe obhambombo umwinza no tumwi owa mwetu tenti hwa Gosi.
8 whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that he might know your state, and that he might encourage your hearts:
Ehutu mahalli mwe hweli nkamumanye enongwa huliti ate nantele aje mmanye abhapele omwoyo.
9 with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known to you everything here.
Ebatumabhoti na Onesimo, oholo wetu oganwe omwiza omo owenyu, bhazabhabhule kila mtu hahafule epa.
10 Aristarchus my fellow-captive salutes you, and Mark, Barnabas's cousin, concerning whom ye have received orders, (if he come to you, receive him, )
Aristarko, opinye owamwetu, abhalamha, mweti no Maliko ovyala wakwa Barnaba yamwahambilile alongozi afume hwa mwene, “Nkashele aiyenza hulimwi mwambilili,”
11 and Jesus called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These [are the] only fellow-workers for the kingdom of God who have been a consolation to me.
Nantele o Yesu yabhaiga Yusto bhabhene bha tahilwe bhabho mbambombo bhamwetu hwa mwene wa Ngolobhi. Bhali luzizyo hulini.
12 Epaphras, who is [one] of you, [the] bondman of Christ Jesus, salutes you, always combating earnestly for you in prayers, to the end that ye may stand perfect and complete in all [the] will of God.
Epafra abhalamuha. Omwene alipaka nate nantele tumwiwa Kilisti Yesu. Omwene abhomba nali nali huputo nantele nkawezye ahwemelele shishiza ahakikizye owiza ashelele amiza gote aga Ngolobhi.
13 For I bear him witness that he labours much for you, and them in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
Hwahuje ejelezyezye, aeje abhomba embombo nalinli hwajili yenyu hwabhala bhabhali hula Laodekia, na hwebho bhabhali Hierapoli.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, salutes you, and Demas.
Luku ola oganga ya genwe nu Dema bhabhalamuha.
15 Salute the brethren in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the assembly which [is] in his house.
Bhabhalamuha aholo bhane bhabhaahwo Laodekia, na Nimfa, neshi bhiza shila sha shili ohwo munyumba yakwe.
16 And when the letter has been read among you, cause that it be read also in the assembly of Laodiceans, and that ye also read that from Laodicea.
Ikalata eli palyaibha limanyelye mwebho namwe emanyilwe hwi bhaza elya Laodekia.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in [the] Lord, to the end that thou fulfil it.
Yaga hawa Arkipo, “enya ala mbambo ela yamwa hambile ashelelee Wagosi aje onwaziwa amalezye.”
18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you.
Idamuhoene eu hu makhono gane nene - Paulo. Gakomboshi amanyolo gane. Owene ubhenamwe.
