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;

Hei mana leo sia kota Kolose, ma mana sia kota Laodikia taladꞌan, ma nda mana feꞌe randaa ro au sa. Rena malolole! Au nau fo basa e bubꞌuluꞌ au ue-tatao ngga fee neu nggi, ma fee neu se.

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,

Au masud ngga, ae tao basa se rala nara manggatee, fo ara raꞌabꞌue reu esa huu rasodꞌa esa sue esa. Ara ramahere tebꞌe, huu rahine tebꞌe Lamatuaꞌ masud maꞌahulun mana maꞌafuniꞌ a. Mana maꞌafuniꞌ naa, naeni Kristus!

3 in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.

Mete ma hei nene paꞌa-siiꞌ miꞌibꞌue mo Kristus ena, dei fo Ana fee basa dudꞌuꞌat fo mae miꞌenaꞌ a, ma nanori hei nendiꞌ dudꞌuꞌat naa fo tao dꞌala maloleꞌ ra. Dudꞌuꞌat ia ra, onaꞌ hata-heto mafelit e.

4 Now I say this that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.

Au ufadꞌe hei basa dalaꞌ ia ra, naa fo atahori afiꞌ rema peko-lelekoꞌ hei no maa mina nara.

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.

Memaꞌ au leo uꞌudꞌoꞌ o hei. Onaꞌ naa o, au nda liliiꞌ hei sa, huu rala ngga naꞌabꞌue neu esa no nggi. Au o umuhoꞌo, huu au bubꞌuluꞌ hei masodꞌa mara nandaa, ma feꞌe toꞌu mihereꞌ nemehere mara neu Kristus.

6 As therefore you received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in him,

Huu fai maꞌahulun hei simbo Yesus Kristus dadꞌi Malangga mara, naa de ia na, hei musi rena mikindoo E. Te Eni, feꞌe dadꞌi hei malanggam.

7 rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.

Mete ma hei misodꞌa nenepaꞌa-siiꞌ mo E taꞌo naa, hei onaꞌ hau huu manggateeꞌ, huu okan neneselaꞌ roman seli. Ma hei onaꞌ ume manggateeꞌ, huu nenenefefelaꞌ sia netehu manggateeꞌ. Hei maꞌadꞌereꞌ mikindoo sia hei nemehere mara, onaꞌ hei rena malaꞌ naa. Hei rala mara sofeꞌ no nemehoꞌot, huu basa dalaꞌ fo Lamatualain tao fee heiꞌ ra ena.

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.

Besa-bꞌesa fo ama afiꞌ tungga atahori laen dudꞌuꞌa nara, fo afiꞌ rendi nggi lao hela dꞌala ndoo-tetuꞌ a. Ma afiꞌ tungga atahori nenori mahinen nda mana naꞌena huu-pataꞌ sa. Te nenori nara naa, nema miaꞌ a atahori dudꞌuꞌa nara, ma mia hohoro-lalane raefafoꞌ ra. Nenoriꞌ naa ra nda neneselaꞌ sia Kristus sa.

9 For in him all the fullness of the Deity dwells bodily,

Basa mana sia Lamatualain aon, hambu sia Kristus aon boe. Ma Kristus o dadꞌi atahori onaꞌ hita boe.

10 and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power.

Huu hei miꞌibꞌue mo Kristus ena, ma dadꞌi atahori nara, naa de Ana tao nggi dadꞌi manadaiꞌ. Te Ana lenaꞌ basa koasa ra ma mana toꞌu parendaꞌ ra, onaꞌ mae maloleꞌ do deꞌulakaꞌ.

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,

Leleꞌ sunat, atahori Yahudi ra uta hendi ‘mamae nara’ rou tonggon fo dadꞌi tatanda oi, sira, Lamatualain atahori nara. Leleꞌ hei dadꞌi Kristus atahori nara, hei o ‘sunat’ boe. Eni masud na taꞌo ia: sunat ia nda soꞌal atahori uta hendi ao roun sa, te soꞌal Kristus uta hendi basa dꞌala-dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ ra mia rala mara. Naeni, dꞌala-dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ fo hita hiiꞌ a tao huu hita ia ra, atahori.

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.

Leleꞌ ara sarani hei rendiꞌ oe, naa onaꞌ neꞌoi hei miꞌibꞌue mo Kristus. De hei hambu masodꞌa feuꞌ, onaꞌ Ana hambu masodꞌa feuꞌ boe. Hei hambu taꞌo naa, huu hei mimihere mae, Lamatualain pake Koasa manaselin, fo tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ Yesus Kristus mia mamaten. Ana o ue-tao sia hei rala mara nendiꞌ koasa naa boe.

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,

Feꞌesaꞌan, hei onaꞌ mates ena, huu sala-kilu mara mataꞌ-mataꞌ, boe ma nda feꞌe dadꞌi mii Lamatualain atahori nara sa. Mae onaꞌ naa o, Ana soi-tefa nala basa sala-kilu mara, ma fee masodꞌa feuꞌ neu nggi, onaꞌ Ana tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ Kristus.

14 wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.

Matetun, hita musi nenehukun, huu hita talena-langga neu Lamatualain hohoro-lalanen nara. Te Ana soi-tefa nala sala-kilu tara, leleꞌ Kristus nenembakuꞌ mia hau ngganggeꞌ a.

15 Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Sia naa, Ana nasenggiꞌ basa koasa-koasa maꞌahatuꞌ no mana toꞌu parenda deꞌulakaꞌ ra. De Ana naꞌamamaeꞌ se mia atahori naeꞌ mata nara. Naa onaꞌ soldꞌadꞌu ra rasenggiꞌ musu a, de baliꞌ ma tao pawe rereoꞌ, ratudꞌu neu musu fo sira rasenggiꞌ ra.

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,

Mete ma atahori rae raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ hei sia dꞌala nanaa-nininuꞌ ra, na, afiꞌ taoafiꞌ neu se. Ma mete ma atahori rae raꞌasesenggiꞌ ro nggi soꞌal fai-fai maloleꞌ ra, do feta fula feuꞌ, do hohoro-lalane fai hahae aoꞌ, na, afiꞌ rena se.

17 which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.

Dedꞌeat mataꞌ naa ra, nda pantin sa! Huu dedꞌeat naa ra onaꞌ salaoꞌ e, dei fo sambu-lalo hendi neuꞌ ena. Te Kristus naa, matetuꞌ. Eni, sia nakandoo.

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,

Mete ma atahori rae raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ nggi, huu hei nda tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ fo ara taoꞌ ra sa, na, afiꞌ rena. Te, mete ma hei rena se, na, hei nda bisa simbo dꞌala-dꞌala maloleꞌ fo Lamatualain nae fee nggi. Te besa-bꞌesa, e! Te memaꞌ hambu atahori hii sangga dalaꞌ fo raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ nggi. Ara nau hei musi leo-lao miloe-midꞌae ao mara, ma songgo neu Lamatuaꞌ ate nara sia nusa tetuꞌ, huu ara rae neꞌo hambu meit natudꞌu neu nggi taꞌo naa. Ara rae sira maloleꞌ lenaꞌ atahori laen ra. Tao-tao te nda taꞌo naa sa! Huu dudꞌuꞌa nara onaꞌ atahori ra boe.

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.

Sira nda nenepaꞌa-siiꞌ ro Kristus sa. Tao-tao te, Eni malangga. Atahori nara, onaꞌ eni aon fo Eni mete-seꞌuꞌ a. Ana tao fee atahori nara maꞌadereꞌ nendiꞌ Lamatualain koasan. No taꞌo naa, ara dadꞌi ona uaꞌ no ruiꞌ nenefutu manggateeꞌ fo esa tulu fali esa, losa ao-sisiꞌ bisa tao ues no maloleꞌ.

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,

Hei mate miꞌibꞌue mo Kristus ena. De hei nda afiꞌ nenepaꞌa-siiꞌ mo koasa maꞌahatuꞌ a sia raefafoꞌ ia sa. Te, taꞌo bee de hei feꞌe tungga neu raefafoꞌ a hohoro-lalanen mataꞌ-mataꞌ fai? Ara rae taꞌo ia:

21 “Don’t handle, nor taste, nor touch”

“Afiꞌ toꞌu ia; afiꞌ mua naa; afiꞌ nggama ia.”

22 (all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men?

Hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra, atahori mana tao, fo ranori neu atahori ra. Te huu hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra mete-seꞌu neu akaꞌ dꞌala-dꞌala mana sambu-laloꞌ!

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.

Onaꞌ atahori bisa tao tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra, rae neꞌo dei fo atahori fee hadꞌa-hormat neu se, ma oi sira mahine nara seli, atahori mana tungga agama tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ, mana maloe-madꞌae ralan, mana tao doidꞌoso ao nara. Tao-tao te hokoꞌ! Hohoro-lalaneꞌ ra nda nalole-nalau nala maloleꞌ atahori dudꞌuꞌan ma ralan fo mana hiiꞌ a tao deꞌulakaꞌ sa!
