WARQADDII RASUUL BAWLOS U QORAY DADKII
KOLOSAY

Salaan

Anigoo ah Bawlos, oo ah rasuulkii Ciise Masiix xagga doonista Ilaah, iyo walaalkeen Timoteyos, waxaannu warqaddan u qoraynaa quduusiinta iyo walaalaha aaminka ah ee Masiixa ku jira oo Kolosay jooga. Nimco ha idinla jirto iyo nabad ka timaada Ilaaha Aabbeheenna ah.

Mahadnaqid Iyo Duco

Waxaannu ku mahadnaqnaa Ilaaha ah Aabbaha Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix, annagoo had iyo goorba idiin soo ducaynayna. Waxaannu maqalnay rumaysadkiinna xagga Ciise Masiix iyo jacaylka aad quduusiinta oo dhan u qabtaan, rajada jannada laydiin dhigay aawadeed, taas oo aad hore ugu maqasheen hadalka runta ah oo injiilka. Kaasu waa idiin yimid, xataa siduu ugu yimid dunida oo dhan isagoo midho dhalaya oo kordhaya, sida uu idinkana midho idiinku dhalayo oo idiinku kordhayo, tan iyo maalintii aad maqasheen oo aad ogaateen nimcada Ilaah oo runta ku jirta. Sidaasaad ka barateen gacaliyeheenna Ebafras oo addoon nala ah, oo Masiixa u ah midiidin aamin ah aawadeen, kaas oo weliba noo caddeeyey jacaylkiinna Ruuxa ku jira.

Ciise Masiix Wuxuu Yahay Iyo Wuxuu Sameeyey

Sababtaas daraaddeed tan iyo maalintii aannu taas maqalnay ma aannu joojin inaannu idiin soo ducayno. Waxaannu Ilaah idiin baryaynaa inay idinka buuxsanto aqoonta doonistiisa xagga xigmadda iyo waxgarashada Ruuxa oo dhan, 10 inaad u socotaan si Rabbiga istaahisha oo aad wax kasta isaga kaga farxisaan, idinkoo midho ku soo saaraya shuqul kasta oo wanaagsan oo ku sii kordhaya aqoonta Ilaah. 11 Weliba waxaannu Ilaah baryaynaa inaad ku xoogaysataan xoog oo dhan sida uu yahay itaalka ammaantiisu xagga adkaysashada iyo dulqaadashada farxaddu la jirto oo dhan. 12 Mahad baannu u naqaynaa Aabbaha inaga dhigay kuwa istaahila inay ka qayb qaataan dhaxalka quduusiinta nuurka ku jirta. 13 Isagu waa inaga samatabbixiyey xoogga gudcurka, oo wuxuu inoo beddelay boqortooyadii Wiilka jacaylkiisa, 14 kaas oo aynu ku leennahay madaxfurasho ah dembidhaafka. 15 Isagu waa suuraddii Ilaaha aan la arki karin, oo ah curadka uunka oo dhan; 16 waayo, wax kastaba isagaa uumay, waxyaalaha samooyinka ku jira, iyo waxyaalaha dhulka joogaba, waxyaalaha la arki karo iyo waxyaalaha aan la arki karinba, hadday yihiin carshiyo ama sayidnimo ama madax ama amarro; wax walba isagaa uumay oo loo uumay. 17 Isagu wax kastaba wuu ka horreeyaa, oo wax kastaaba isagay isku haystaan. 18 Oo isagu waa madaxa jidhka, kaas oo ah kiniisadda, oo isagu waa bilowgii iyo curadka kuwii dhintay ka kacay, si uu uga horreeyo wax kastaba. 19 Waayo, waxaa Aabbaha ka farxisay in buuxnaanta oo dhammu ay isaga ku jirto, 20 iyo inuu isaga wax kastaba xaggiisa kula heshiiyo, isagoo kula nabday dhiiga iskutallaabtiisa; hadday yihiin waxyaalaha dhulka jooga ama hadday yihiin waxyaalaha samooyinka ku jiraba. 21 Idinku waa hore waxaad ahaydeen kuwo ajanabi laga dhigay, oo maankiinnana cadow baad ka ahaydeen xagga shuqulladiinna sharka ah, 22 laakiinse haatan isagu wuxuu idinkula heshiiyey jidhkiisii aadmiga oo dhintay, inuu isagu hortiisa idin keeno idinkoo quduus ah oo aan iin iyo eed midna lahayn, 23 haddii aad ku sii jirtaan iimaanka, oo aad gun iyo xidid adag ku leedihiin, oo aydnaan ka fogaan rajadii injiilkii aad maqasheen, kaas oo lagu wacdiyey uunka samada ka hooseeya oo dhan, oo anigoo Bawlos ah layga dhigay midiidin.

Qaybtii Uu Bawlos Ka Qaatay Shuqulka Ciise Masiix

24 Haatan waxaan ku farxaa xanuunsigayga aan idiin xanuunsado, oo waxaan dhammaystiraa dhibaatooyinka Masiixa oo jidhkayga ku dhiman jidhkiisa aawadiis kaasoo ah kiniisadda. 25 Taas waxaa la iiga dhigay midiidin xagga wakiilnimada Ilaah oo aniga aawadiin la ii siiyey inaan dhammaan erayga Ilaah ku wada wacdiyo. 26 Wuxuu ahaa wax aan la garanayn oo qarsoonaa tan iyo weligiis iyo qarni kasta, laakiinse haatan waxaa loo muujiyey quduusiintiisa. 27 Kuwaas Ilaah baa ku farxay inuu iyaga ogeysiiyo waxa ay tahay hodantinimada ammaanta qarsoodigan ee ku dhex jira quruumaha, kaas oo ah Masiixa idinku jira oo ah rajada ammaanta. 28 Isaga waannu naadinnaa, annagoo nin kasta waaninayna oo nin kasta wax ku barayna xigmad oo dhan, inaannu nin walba hor keenno isagoo Masiixa kaamil ku ah. 29 Taas ayaan u hawshoodaa anigoo aad u dadaalaya sida uu yahay shuqulkiisa si xoog leh igaga dhex shaqeeyaa.

Paul, an apostle(A) of Christ Jesus by the will of God,(B) and Timothy(C) our brother,

To God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters[a] in Christ:

Grace(D) and peace to you from God our Father.[b](E)

Thanksgiving and Prayer

We always thank God,(F) the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love(G) you have for all God’s people(H) the faith and love that spring from the hope(I) stored up for you in heaven(J) and about which you have already heard in the true message(K) of the gospel that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit(L) and growing throughout the whole world(M)—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace. You learned it from Epaphras,(N) our dear fellow servant,[c] who is a faithful minister(O) of Christ on our[d] behalf, and who also told us of your love in the Spirit.(P)

For this reason, since the day we heard about you,(Q) we have not stopped praying for you.(R) We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will(S) through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,[e](T) 10 so that you may live a life worthy(U) of the Lord and please him(V) in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God,(W) 11 being strengthened with all power(X) according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience,(Y) 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father,(Z) who has qualified you[f] to share in the inheritance(AA) of his holy people in the kingdom of light.(AB) 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness(AC) and brought us into the kingdom(AD) of the Son he loves,(AE) 14 in whom we have redemption,(AF) the forgiveness of sins.(AG)

The Supremacy of the Son of God

15 The Son is the image(AH) of the invisible God,(AI) the firstborn(AJ) over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created:(AK) things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;(AL) all things have been created through him and for him.(AM) 17 He is before all things,(AN) and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head(AO) of the body, the church;(AP) he is the beginning and the firstborn(AQ) from among the dead,(AR) so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased(AS) to have all his fullness(AT) dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile(AU) to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven,(AV) by making peace(AW) through his blood,(AX) shed on the cross.

21 Once you were alienated from God and were enemies(AY) in your minds(AZ) because of[g] your evil behavior. 22 But now he has reconciled(BA) you by Christ’s physical body(BB) through death to present you(BC) holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation(BD) 23 if you continue(BE) in your faith, established(BF) and firm, and do not move from the hope(BG) held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven,(BH) and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.(BI)

Paul’s Labor for the Church

24 Now I rejoice(BJ) in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions,(BK) for the sake of his body, which is the church.(BL) 25 I have become its servant(BM) by the commission God gave me(BN) to present to you the word of God(BO) in its fullness— 26 the mystery(BP) that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people. 27 To them God has chosen to make known(BQ) among the Gentiles the glorious riches(BR) of this mystery, which is Christ in you,(BS) the hope of glory.

28 He is the one we proclaim, admonishing(BT) and teaching everyone with all wisdom,(BU) so that we may present everyone fully mature(BV) in Christ. 29 To this end I strenuously(BW) contend(BX) with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.(BY)
