1Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
1 Koyey, araŋ ma te araŋ bannyey se haŋ kaŋ ga hagu, da haŋ kaŋ ga saba mo, zama araŋ ga bay kaŋ araŋ mo gonda Koy beena ra.
2Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
2 Araŋ ma mo ye adduwa ra ka batu a ra mo nda saabuyaŋ.
3Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:
3 Araŋ ma te adduwa iri mo se, Irikoy ma fondo feeri iri se nga sanno se, hal iri ma Almasihu gundu ci kaŋ sabbay se no ay go kasu.
4That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.
4 Zama ay m'a bangandi mate kaŋ cine a ga hima ay se ay ma ci.
5Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
5 Araŋ ma dira nda laakal ngey kaŋ yaŋ mana cimandi jine. Araŋ ma alwaati wi mo da laakal.
6Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
6 Alwaati kulu araŋ sanney ma ciya gomni waney, danga ŋwaari kaŋ maa ciiri, zama araŋ ma du ka bay mate kaŋ cine no araŋ ga tu d'a boro kulu se.
7All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
7 Ticikos ga ti iri nya-izo, iri baakwa, saajawko naanaykoy, ay tamtaray hangasin mo no Rabbi ra. A g'araŋ bayrandi d'ay baaru kulu.
8Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;
8 Woodin sabbay se no ay n'a donton araŋ do, zama araŋ ma du k'iri gora bay, a m'araŋ biney gaabandi mo.
9With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known unto you all things which are done here.
9 Ay na Onisimos donton a banda mo. Onisimos ga ti nya-ize naanaykoy, iri baakwa, araŋ do boro no. Nga mo no ga hay kulu ci araŋ se kaŋ goono ga te neewo.
10Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)
10 Aristarkos, ay kasu hangasino g'araŋ fo. Markos, Barnaba waymayzo mo goono g'araŋ fo. Araŋ jin ka du lordi a boŋ, d'a kaa araŋ do araŋ m'a zumandi.
11And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.
11 Yasuwa mo, kaŋ se i ga ne Yustos, goono g'araŋ fo. Ikulu Yahudance yaŋ no. Ngey hinne no ga ti ay goy hangasiney Irikoy koytara se kaŋ n'ay saajaw.
12Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
12 Abafaras mo, kaŋ ga ti araŋ bora, Almasihu Yesu tamo, g'araŋ fo. Alwaati kulu a goono ga kookari araŋ se nga adduwey ra zama araŋ ma kay timmanteyaŋ da toonanteyaŋ Irikoy miila kulu ra.
13For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them that are in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
13 Zama ay g'a seeda: a go ga taabi araŋ se gumo, da ngey mo se kaŋ yaŋ go Lawodisiya da Hiyarapolis.
14Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.
14 Lokotoro Luka, iri baakwa, da Dimas goono g'araŋ fo.
15Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.
15 Araŋ ma nya-izey fo kaŋ yaŋ go Lawodisiya. Araŋ ma Nimfas da nga windo ra Almasihu marga fo.
16And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.
16 Waati kaŋ i na tira wo caw araŋ do, i m'a caw mo Lawodisiya Almasihu marga ra. Araŋ mo, araŋ ma Lawodisiya tira caw.
17And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.
17 Araŋ ma ne Arkipas se a ma haggoy da saajaw goyo kaŋ a ta Rabbi do, hal a m'a toonandi.
18The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen.
18 Ay, Bulos no ka fooyaŋ wo hantum d'ay bumbo kamba. Araŋ ma fongu kaŋ ay go hawante kasu ra. Gomni ma bara araŋ banda.
