Colossians 2
1 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;
Ku nsoko ndoilwe mulinge iti niiza ntuile nu lwago lidu ku nsoko anyu, ku ihi niakoli ku Laodikia nu ku ihi naza akili kihenga u usu nuane mu muili.
2 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, both of the Father and of Christ,
Kituma u mulimo iti kina nkolo niao ihume kupoligwa ku kuletwa palung'wi mu ulowa nu ku ugoli wihi nua widu nua kulu kuulu nikondile nua uhuguku, ku kuulinga i kinkunku nika tai ang'wa Itunda, naiza ingi uKristo.
3 in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.
Mu ng'wenso matulyo ihi na upolo nu uhuguku upihilwe.
4 Now I say this that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.
Kuligitya izi iti kina wihi waleke kumutendeela isue ku utanantyi nu ukete upembeseelyi.
5 For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
Ni anga ize nimutili palung'wi nu nyenye mu muili, kuiti nkoli palung'wi nu nyenye mu nkolo. Ni loile kihenga i nzila nianyu ni nziza ni ngulu nia u huiili nuanyu mung'wa Kristo.
6 As therefore you received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in him,
Anga nai mu musingiiye uKristo Mukulu, gendi mu ng'wenso.
7 rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.
Mukomigwe mu ng'wenso, muzengwe mu ng'wenso, mukomigwe mu uhuiili anga udu nai mumanyisigwe, nu kutungwa mi imbiilyo lidu.
8 Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elemental spirits of the world, and not after Christ.
Gozeeli nia kina muntu wihi aleke kumuambya ku ulingi ni nkani ntili nia ukongeli kuniganiila nu usingiilya nua kibina adamu, kuniganiila ni ntendo nia kinya ingu, shanga kuniganiila nu Kristo.
9 For in him all the fullness of the Deity dwells bodily,
Kunsoko mu ng'wenso ukondaniili wihi nuang'wa Itunda wikiie mu muili.
10 and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power.
Nu nyenye mizuigwe mu ng'wenso, uNg'wenso ingi itwe nila kila uhumi nu unyangulu.
11 In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ,
Mu ng'wenso ga ai mutwawe kidamu ni shanga kitung'wa nu bina adamu mu kuhegeligwa muili nua nyama, kuiti ingi mu kidamu nikang'wa Kristo.
12 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.
Ai muikilwe palung'wi nu ng'wenso mu wogigwa. Nu kunzila a uhuiili mu ng'wenso ai miukigwe ku uhumi nuang'wa Itunda, Nai umiukilye kupuma muashi.
13 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,
Hangi nai matulaa makuza mu utumuli nuanyu nu kuhita kutalwa i kidamu mu miili anyu, ai umitumile apanga palung'wi nu ng'wenso nu ku ulekela i milandu itu ihi.
14 wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.
Ai uputile u ukimbukiilyi nua udaigwa nai ukilisigwe, ni nzila nai yatulaa nsuta nu sese. Ai uihegilye yihi nu kuikononteela mi ikota ila mpaga.
15 Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Ai uihegilye i ngulu nu ukulu. Ai umaikile kihenga nu kituma kutula ilumbi nula ukilyi ku nzila a ikota nila mpaga nilakwe.
16 Let no one therefore judge you in eating or drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
Ku lulo, muntu wihi waleke kumulamula unyenye kulya ang'wi kung'wa, ang'wi kutula luhiku nula siku kuu ang'wi ng'weli ugeni, ang'wi luhiku nula kusupya.
17 which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
Izi ingi miluli a makani napembilye, kuiti nikamukati ingi Kristo.
18 Let no one rob you of your prize by self-abasement and worshiping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
Muntu nu tuile wihi aleke kuhegeligwa ilumbi nilakwe ku kuhung'wa nsula a uliuki nu kipoelya u malaika. Muntu nua kinya iti wingilaa mu makani naza umihengile nu kupembeseeligwa ni masigo akwe na muili.
19 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.
uNg'wenso shanga wiliambiila itwe. Ingi kupuma mu itwe kina u muili wihi kukiila nungo niakwe ni makupa ikinyinkanigwa nu kuambinkanigwa ku palung'wi; nu kukula ku ukuli nuipumigwaa nu Itunda.
20 If you died with Christ from the elemental spirits of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,
Anga itule ai ku kule palung'wi nu Kristo ku ntendo nia mihi, mbona mu kikie anga mukitumigwa ku ihi;
21 “Don’t handle, nor taste, nor touch”
“Leki kuambi, ang'wi kululya, ang'wi ku kumpya”
22 (all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men?
Aya ihi alagiigwe ku nsoko a ubipya nu upembilye nu utumili, Kupumiila nu ulagiilwa nu umanyisigwa nua ana adamu.
23 These things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, humility, and severity to the body, but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
Malagiilyo aya akete upolo nua makumbiko nazipigwe ku ing'wene nu uliuki nu lwago nula muili. Kuiti ngila anga nsailo ku nsula nia muili.
