1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
1[Ny tokony hanariana ny asan'ny nofo sy ny hitondran-tena miendrika ny filazantsara] Koa raha niara-natsangana tamin'i Kristy ianareo, dia katsaho ny zavatra any ambony, any amin'ny itoeran'i Kristy, Izay mipetraka eo an-tanana ankavanan'Andriamanitra.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
2Saino ny zavatra any ambony, fa tsy ny zavatra etỳ an-tany.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
3Fa efa maty ianareo, ary ny fiainanareo miara-miafina amin'i Kristy ao amin'Andriamanitra.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
4Raha hiseho Kristy fiainantsika, dia hiara-miseho aminy koa amin'ny voninahitra ianareo.
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
5Koa vonoy ny momba ny tenanareo izay etỳ an-tany, dia fijangajangana, fahalotoana, firehetam-po, fanirian-dratsy ary fieremana, dia fanompoan-tsampy izany;
6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
6fa izany zavatra izany no mahatonga ny fahatezeran'Andriamanitra amin'ny zanaky ny tsi-fanarahana;
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
7izany koa no nalehanareo fahiny, fony mbola velona taminy ianareo.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
8Fa ankehitriny, esory koa izao rehetra izao, dia fahatezerana, fiafonafonana, lolompo, fitenenan-dratsy, teny mahamenatra avy amin'ny vavanareo.
9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
9Aza mifandainga ianareo, fa efa narianareo ny toetra taloha mbamin'ny asany; [ Gr. olona]
10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
10ary efa notafinareo ny toetra vaovao, izay havaozina ho amin'ny fahalalana tsara araka ny endrik'izay nahary azy. [ Gr. olona]
11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
11Fa amin'izany dia tsy misy jentilisa sy Jiosy, na voafora sy tsy voafora, na barbariana sy Skytiana, na andevo sy tsy andevo, fa Kristy no zavatra rehetra sady amin'ny rehetra. [ Gr. Grika]
12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
12Koa mitafia famindram-po sy fiantrana,, fahamoram-panahy, fanetren-tena, fahalemem-panahy, fandeferana, araka ny olom-boafidin'Andriamanitra sady masina no malala.
13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
13Mifandefera,ka mifamelà heloka ianareo, raha misy manana alahelo amin'ny sasany; tahaka ny namelan'ny Tompo ny helokareo no aoka mba hamelanareo heloka kosa. [ Na: (Kristy)]
14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
14Ary aoka ho ambonin'izany rehetra izany ny fitiavana, fa fehin'ny fahatanterahana izany.
15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
15Ary aoka hanapaka ao am-ponareo ny fiadanan'i Kristy, fa ho amin'izany no niantsoana anareo ho tena iray; ary aoka ho feno fisaorana ianareo.
16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
16Aoka ny tenin'i Kristy hitoetra betsaka ao aminareo amin'ny fahendrena rehetra, dia mifampianara ka mifananara amin'ny salamo sy ny fihirana ary ny tonon-kiram-panahy, mihira amin'ny fahasoavana ao am-ponareo ho an'Andriamanitra.
17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
17Ary na inona na inona no ataonareo, na amin'ny teny, na amin'ny asa, dia ataovy amin'ny anaran'i Jesosy Tompo izany, ka misaora Andriamanitra Ray amin'ny alalany.
18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
18Hianareo vehivavy, maneke ny vadinareo araka izay mety hatao ao amin'ny Tompo.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
19Hianareo lehilahy, tiava ny vadinareo. ary aza sosotra aminy. [ Gr. mangidy]
20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
20Hianareo zanaka, maneke ny ray aman-dreninareo amin'ny zavatra rehetra; fa ankasitrahana ao amin'ny Tompo izany.
21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
21Hianareo ray, aza mampahasosotra ny zanakareo, fandrao mamoy fo izy.
22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
22Hianareo mpanompo, maneke ny tomponareo araka ny nofo amin'ny zavatra rehetra, tsy amin'ny fanompoana eo imaso, tahaka ny mpila sitraka amin'olona, fa amin'ny fahatsoram-po, matahotra ny Tompo;
23And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
23ary na inona na inona no ataonareo, dia ataovy amin'ny fo, tahaka ny ho an'ny Tompo, fa tsy ho an'olona,
24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
24satria fantatrareo fa ny Tompo no handraisanareo ny lova ho valiny; fa manompo an'i Kristy Tompo ianareo.Fa izay manao ny tsy marina dia handray araka ny tsy marina nataony; fa tsy misy fizahan-tavan'olona,
25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
25Fa izay manao ny tsy marina dia handray araka ny tsy marina nataony; fa tsy misy fizahan-tavan'olona,
