Colossians 3
1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.
Nkashele Ongolobhe abhavyosezye pandwemo no Kristi, ganzajiamambo gamwauya gashele o Kristi akhala hukhono gwakwe ogwahushilome wa Ngolobhe.
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
Sebhaji amambo gagali amwanya gashelesegaoegenzi.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
Afwatanaje mfwinye naolukhalo lwenyu gafisilwe pandwemo no Kristi hwa Ngolobhe.
4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
O wakati o Kristi naibhoneha, afwateje lukhalo lwenyu, shashesho namwe nantele mwaibhonehana no mwene hutuntumu.
5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
Esho gafisi amambo gagalipansiyai omalaya, ochafu, azilishe shibhibhi, eniyaimbibhi, nanyonywe, eyo mputo oilenka.
6 For these things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
Afwataneje amambo ega ilyoyo elya Ngolobhe libhenza, whabhana bhashelesesebha whogopa.
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them,
Afwataneje amambo ega amwe nantele mwajendilehwego nna mwakhalaga hwabhene.
8 but now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
Eshi lazima mgefye amambo ega gonti yau. Ilyoyo, enkuni enia embibhi, indigo, nenongwa embibhi, gagafuma mwilomulyenyu.
9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,
Msakhopelane mwewhamwe afatane mwabhue ubhuntu wenyu owehale ne mbombo yakwe.
10 and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
Mkwate ubhuntu opya, wahwubhombashipya nenjele afume no lengano whayola yabhomba.
11 where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, or free person; but Christ is all, and in all.
Hunjele ezi nomo Myunani, no Mmyuhadi atahiliwe nasinte tailiwe, obhazo nosagabhaza otumwa yasagali tumwa lelopesho oKristi yomambo gonti wagonti.
12 Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;
Nkashele asalulwe bhangolobhe, abhoziwa naabhelwo vwano, hwikwattizi owhuntu owinza, epyana awhishe opole na ajimbe.
13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.
Ejelanaji mwemwehwamwe. Sajilanaji shilamuntu nowamwabho, nkashele umntu alamiha whawamwabho asajileshashila, nashi ogosi sabhhasajie amwe.
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
Ega amambo gonti, mganane eshoshenyezyo shegolosi.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.
E amani eya Kristi ebhalongozye amoyo genyu. Ehalishe enashe olweteho eli huje mwakwiziwe hubelegumo mbhenolusalifo.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.
Izu elya Kristi likhale mhatiyenyu hubhutajiri. Neshinshi yontii fundizanyaji na ajehane mwemwe namwe nahwembe, enyembo, ne nyembo zya humwoyo e, mbaji salifiaji amogogenyu wha Ngolobhe.
17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Hahonti hambhomba whizu olwe whitawailya Gosi O Yesu, peliensalifyo Ongolobhe oBaba ashilile whamwene.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Mbhashe ihaji hwalumebhenyu, nashisasungwa Ogosi.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
Amwebhalume bhagani abhashe bhenyu msabhebhakhali whabhene.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
Wana bhogopaji apaji bhenyu humambogoti, eshosasungwa Ogosi.
21 Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged.
Mwababa mgaje whandizye abahna bhenyu. bhasahilamwe.
22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.
Fasontelezi bhogopi agosi bhenyu hubele na mambo gonti, saga huhuduma eyimasonashiabhantu. Nashi abhantu bhasombezye wene nahumoyo uwelwoli mwogopaji Ongolobhe.
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,
Hahonti hambhomba bhombaji afume mioyo genyu nashi Ogosi nate hwabhantu.
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
Mmenyeaje mbhapate etunzo eyatabhale afumeusha Gosi yo Kristi Ogosi yamhuputa.
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
Eshiwawhonti yabhomba gasheleseminza abhapate longwe hunjendo zya shelesenyinza gabhombele amnawhemele.
