Colossians-Qolesayah
To The Believing Remnant Of Yisrael
1 Shaul, a sholiach of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 Ha Moshiach by the will of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and Timtheous our Yisraelite brother,
2 To the Yisraelite kidushim and faithful Yisraelite brothers in Moshiach who are at Qolesayah: Unmerited chen be to you and shalom, from 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 our Abba and The Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 Ha Moshiach.
3 We give hodu to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 The Abba of our Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 Ha Moshiach, making tefillot always for you,
4 Since we heard of your emunah in Moshiach 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 and of the ahava which you have to all the Yisraelite kidushim,
5 For the tikvah that is laid up for you in the shamayim, of which you heard before in The Word of the emet of The Besorah;
6 Which has come to you, as it has in all the olam; and brings forth fruit, as it does also in you, since the yom that you heard of it and knew the unmerited chen of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 in emet:
7 As you also learned of Epaphras our dear fellow eved, who is for you also a faithful eved of Moshiach;
8 Who also declared to us your ahava in The Ruach.
9 For this cause we also, since the yom we heard of it, do not cease to make tefillot for you and to desire that you might be filled with the da’at of His will in all chochmah and spiritual binah;
10 That you might have a halacha worthy of The Master fully pleasing, being fruitful in every tov mitzvah and increasing in the da’at of Ahloha;
11 Strengthened with all koach, according to His beautiful Power, to all patience and endurance with simcha;
12 Giving hodu to Abba, who has made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the Yisraelite kidushim in ohr:
13 Who has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the malchut of His dear Son:
14 In whom we have geulah through His dahm, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible Ahloha, the Bachor of all creation:
16 For by Him were all things created, that are in the shamayim and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether they are thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and for Him:
17 And He is before all things and by Him all things consist.
18 And He is the Head of the gooff, the kehilla of Yisrael: The Beginning, The Bachor from the dead; that in all things He might be the first.
19 For it pleased Abba that in Him should all fullness dwell;
20 And, having made shalom through the dahm of His execution stake, through Him to restore all things to Himself; whether they be things on earth, or things in the shamayim.
21 And you, that were sometimes alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has He restored.
22 In the gooff of His flesh through death, to present you kadosh and blameless and without reproach in His sight:
23 If you continue in the emunah grounded and settled and be not moved away from the tikvah of The Besorah, about which you have heard and which was proclaimed to every creature that is under the shamayim; by which I Shaul have been made an eved;
24 Who now have simcha in my sufferings for you, that now fills up that which is lacking in the afflictions of The Moshiach in my own flesh for His gooff’s sake, which is the kehilla of Yisrael:
25 Of which I am made an eved, according to the administration of Ahloha’s gift, which is given to me for you, to fulfill The Word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄;
26 Even the sod that has been hidden from olamim and from generations, but now is revealed to His Yisraelite kidushim:
27 To whom 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 would make known what are the riches of the tifereth of this sod among all the goyim; which is Moshiach in you, the tikvah of tifereth:
28 Whom we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man in all chochmah; that we may present every man mature in Moshiach 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏:
29 For which I also labor, striving according to His working, which works in me with His Power.
2 For I want you to know what a great struggle I have for you and for those at Laodikeia and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2 That their levavot might be in full shalom, being knit together in ahava, to all the riches of the full assurance of binah, to the acknowledgement of the sod of Abba 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and of The Moshiach;
3 In whom are hidden all the treasures of chochmah and da’at.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5 For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in The Ruach, having simcha and beholding your orderliness and the firmness of your emunah in Moshiach.
6 As you have therefore received Moshiach 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 The Master, so have your halacha in Him:
7 Rooted and built up in Him, established in the emunah, as you have been taught, abounding in the emunah with hodu.
8 Beware lest any man devour you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the traditions of men, after the elementary matters of the olam hazeh and not after Moshiach.
9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of El-Elyon in bodily form.
10 And you are complete in Him, who is the Head of all principality and Power:
11 In whom also you are made brit-milah with the brit-milah made without hands, in putting off the gooff of the sins of the flesh by the brit-milah of The Moshiach:
12 Buried with Him in mikvah, by which also you are risen with Him through emunah in the operation of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, who has raised Him from the dead.
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, has He made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all your trespasses;
14 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 execution stake;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no individual man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a moed, or in the chodesh, or in The Shabbat yamim:
17 Which are shadows of things to come; except the Yisraelite gooff of Moshiach.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a false humility and in the worshipping of heavenly malachim, spiritually standing on things that he has not seen, empty-headed things, created by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding to the Head, from which all the gooff knit together by joints and ligaments receives nourishment and grows with the increase of Ahloha.
20 Therefore if you are dead with The Moshiach from the elements of the olam hazeh, why, as though living in the olam hazeh, are you subject to ordinances,
21 Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with man’s using; after the commandments and teachings of men?
23 Whose rules have a show of chochmah in positive attitude, human-will worship, or self-humiliation of the gooff type worship and neglecting of the gooff type worship; but these have no eternal value, except for the satisfying and parading of the flesh.
3 If you then are risen with Moshiach, seek those things which are above, where Moshiach sits as the right Hand of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For you are dead and your chayim is hidden with Moshiach in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
4 When Moshiach, who is our chayim, shall appear, then shall you also appear with Him in tifereth.
5 Put to death therefore your bodily members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, perverted affections, evil desire and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6 Because of these the wrath of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 comes upon the deeds of disobedience:
7 In which you also had your halacha in the past, when you lived in them.
8 But now you also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy and filthy speech out of your mouth.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his wicked deeds;
10 And have put on the renewed man, which is renewed in da’at after the image of Him that created him:
11 Where there is neither Greek, or Yahudi, brit-milah, or uncircumcision, foreigner, or Scythian, bond, or free: but Moshiach is all and in kol Yisrael.
12 Put on therefore, as the chosen people of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, kadosh and beloved, rachamim, chesed, humbleness of mind, meekness and endurance;
13 Bearing one another and forgiving one another, if any man has a quarrel against anyone else: even as The Moshiach forgave you, so also do you.
14 And above all these things put on ahava, which is the bond of perfection.
15 And let the shalom of Moshiach rule in your levavot, to which also you are called in one gooff; and be full of hodu.
16 Let The Word of The Moshiach dwell in you richly in all chochmah; teaching and admonishing one another in the Tehillim and with Ruach-filled shirim, singing with unmerited chen in your levavot to The Master.
17 And whatever you do in word, or mitzvah, do all in the Name of The Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏, giving hodu to Abba 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 through Him.
18 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as it is fit in The Master.
19 Husbands, love your wives and be not bitter against them.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
21 Ahvot, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22 Avadim, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eye-service, as men pleasers; but in sincerity of lev, fearing The Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄:
23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and not to men;
24 Knowing that from The Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 you shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for you serve 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 Ha Moshiach.
25 But he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong that he has done: and there is no partiality of persons.
4 Human masters, give to your avadim that which is just and fair; knowing that you also have The Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 in the shamayim.
2 Continue in the tefillot, and watch in the same with hodu;
3 Offer tefillah also for us, that Ahloha would open to us a door for The Word, to speak the sod of Moshiach, for which I am also in prison:
4 That I may make things clear, as I should speak.
5 Have your halacha in chochmah towards those that are outside the emunah, redeeming the time.
6 Let your speech be always with unmerited chen, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you should answer every man.
7 All my affairs shall Tuchikos tell you, who is a beloved Yisraelite brother and a faithful eved in The Master:
8 Whom I have sent to you for the same purpose, that he might know your affairs and bring shalom to your levavot;
9 With Onesimos, a faithful and beloved Yisraelite brother, who is one of you. They shall make known to you all things that are done here.
10 Aristarchus my fellow prisoner salutes you and Moshe-Marcus, the nephew of Bar-Nava, about whom you received my instructions: if he comes to you, receive him;
11 And Yeshua, who is called Yustus, who is a Yahudi. These only are my fellow workers for the malchut of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, who have been a comfort to me.
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, an eved of Moshiach, salutes you, always laboring fervently for you in tefillot, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
13 For I bear him record, that he has a great zeal for you and for those that are in Laodikeia and for those in Hierapolis.
14 Luka, the beloved physician and Demas, greet you.
15 Salute the Yisraelite brothers who are in Laodekeia and Numpha and the remnant kehilla that meets in his bayit.
16 And when this letter is read among you, make sure that it is read also in the kehilla of the Laodikeians; and that you also read the letter from Laodikeia.
17 And say to Archippos, Take heed to the calling, which you have received in The Master, that you complete it.
18 This greeting is with my own hand – Shaul. Remember my imprisonment. Unmerited chen be with you. Ahmein.
