Bhakolosai 2
1 Kwo kubha enenda mumenyele lwa kutyo nili na jinyako nyafu ingulu yemwe, ku bhona bhanu bhaliyo Laondikia na kubhona bhanu bhachali kubhona obhusu bhwani mu mubhili.
For I would that all of you knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2 Enikola emilimu koleleki ati emioyo jebhwe jitule okusilisibhwa kwo kuletwa amwi mu kwenda na mu bhunibhi bhwona mu bhwafu bhwe chimali mu bhukumiye bhwo bhumenyi mu kuimenya imbisike ye chimali ya Nyamuanga, unu ali Kristo.
That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in (agape) love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
3 Mu mwene omwo nimwo bhuli obhubhikilo bhwona obhwo bhwengeso no bhumenyi bhiselekelwe.
In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 Enaika kutya koleleki ati omunu wona wona asiga kubhakondelesha obhulige-lige kwo bhusimusi bhwo kukongya-kongya.
And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5 Nolwo kutyo nitaliwo amwi nemwe mu mubhili, mbe nawe niliwo amwi nemwe mu Mwoyo. Enikondelwa okukolwa obhwitondi bhwemwe bhwe kisi na bhya managa ne likilisha lyemwe mu Kristo.
For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the (pneuma) spirit, rejoicing and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 Lwa kutyo mwamulamiye Kristo Latabhugenyi, mulibhatilega mu mumwene.
As all of you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk all of you in him:
7 Nimusimbagililega mu mwene, nimubakwega mu mwene, nimusimbagilile mu likilisha lwa kutyo mweigisibhwe, no kubhoywa mu isime nyafu.
Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as all of you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8 Mbe nimulole ati munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma kwo bhwenge-bhwenge na masango gatalimo chona chona gali ga bhujigi -jigi okulubhana no bhusimuka bhwa bhana-munu, okulubhana no bhitondi bhwe Chalo, na atali ati okulubhana na Kristo.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
9 Kulwo kubha mu mwene obhukumiye bhwona obhwa Nyamuanga bhunu bhulame mu mubhili.
For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
10 Nemwe mwijusibhwe mu mwene. Omwene ni mutwe gwa bhuli bhuinga no bhutulo.
And all of you are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
11 Mu mwene one mwatendelwe, kwo lutendo lunu lutakolelwe na mwana-munu mu kusosibhwako omubhili na inyama, mbe nawe ni lutendo olwa Kristo.
In whom also all of you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12 Mwasikilwe amwi nage mu bhubhatijo. Na munjila ye likilisha mu mwene mwasuluywe kwo bhuinga bhwa Nyamuanga, unu amusuluye okusoka mu bhafuye.
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also all of you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who has raised him from the dead.
13 Na anu mwaliga mufuye kulwe bhikayo bhyebhwe no okulema okutendwa kwe mibhili nemwe, abhakolele kubha bhaanga amwi nage no kuchisasila ebhikayo bhyeswe bhyona.
And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, has he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Asimishe obhwichukisho bhwo libhanja linu lyaliga lyandikilwe, no bhwitondi bhunu bhwaliga bhutasikene neswe. Asosisheo bhona no kubhibhambila ku musalabha.
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 Asosisheo amanaga no bhutungi. Agatee abhwelu no kugakola kubha lumula lwo bhuigi ku njila yo musalabha gwaye.
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Kulwejo, munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma emwe mu kulya amwi mu kunywa amwi okulubhana na jinsiku eja malya amwi mukubhonekana kwo kwesi, amwi mu nsiku ja isabhatho.
Let no man therefore judge you in food, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17 Linu ni lilengesi lye misango jinu ejija, mbe nawe omunyumbu ni Kristo.
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Omunu wona asigakusakulwa omuyelo gwaye mu kuligila no kwikeya no kulamya bhamalaika. Omunu wejabho oyo kengila mu misango jinu alolele no kukongibhwa mu meganilisho gaye ago mubhili.
Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 Omwene atakugugwatilila omutwe. Ni kusoka mu mutwe ati omubhili gwona okulabha mu bhyungo bhyaye na mumawa nigugwatana no kugwatanyisibhwa amwi; no kukula kwo bhukusi bhunu obhusosibhwa na Nyamuanga.
And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increases with the increase of God.
20 Alabha mwafuye amwi na Kristo mu ntungwa je Chalo, kawoli kulwaki omulama lwa bhanu abhatongelwa ne Chalo:
Wherefore if all of you be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are all of you subject to ordinances,
21 “Mwasiga kugwata, nolwo kuloja, nolwo kugwata”?
(Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Ganu gona galagiliywe ingulu yo bhunyamuke bhunu obhuja no bhweselanya, okulubhana na melesho na meigisho ga bhana-munu.
Which all are to perish with the using; ) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Ebhilagilo bhinu bhili no bhwengeso obhwa jidini jinu jikolelwe kwo kwilola no kwikeya na jinyako jo mubhili. Mbe nawe jitana bhugusi bhulambu bhitasikene na inamba yo mubhili.
Which things have indeed a (logos) show of wisdom religious outlook, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
