1If therefore ye have been raised with the Christ, seek the things [which are] above, where the Christ is, sitting at [the] right hand of God:
1¶ Na, ki te mea kua ara ngatahi koutou me te Karaiti, rapua nga mea o runga, o te wahi e noho mai nei a te Karaiti i te ringa matau o te Atua.
2have your mind on the things [that are] above, not on the things [that are] on the earth;
2Kia anga atu to koutou whakaaro ki nga mea o runga, kaua ki nga mea kei te whenua.
3for ye have died, and your life is hid with the Christ in God.
3Kua mate hoki koutou, a kua oti to koutou ora te huna ki a te Karaiti i roto i te Atua.
4When the Christ is manifested who [is] our life, then shall *ye* also be manifested with him in glory.
4I te whakakitenga mai o te Karaiti, o to tatou ora, ko reira hoki koutou whakakitea tahitia ai me ia i runga i te kororia.
5Put to death therefore your members which [are] upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness, vile passions, evil lust, and unbridled desire, which is idolatry.
5¶ Na, whakamatea o koutou wahi i runga i te whenua; te moe tahae, te poke, te minamina ki te he, te hiahia kino, me te apo, he karakia whakapakoko hoki tena.
6On account of which things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
6He mea hoki enei e puta mai ai te riri o te Atua ki nga tamariki a te tutu.
7In which *ye* also once walked when ye lived in these things.
7I roto hoki koutou i enei mea e haere ana i mua, i a koutou e noho ana i roto i aua mea.
8But now, put off, *ye* also, all [these] things, wrath, anger, malice, blasphemy, vile language out of your mouth.
8¶ Tena ko tenei whakarerea enei mea katoa; te aritarita, te riri, te mauahara, te korero kino, te korero whakarihariha, i roto i o koutou mangai.
9Do not lie to one another, having put off the old man with his deeds,
9Kaua e teka tetahi ki tetahi, kua unuhia atu hoki i a koutou te tangata tawhito me ana hanga;
10and having put on the new, renewed into full knowledge according to [the] image of him that has created him;
10Kua kakahuria nei te tangata hou, e whakahoutia nei i runga i te matauranga kia rite ki te ahua o tona kaihanga.
11wherein there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondman, freeman; but Christ [is] everything, and in all.
11Kei reira kahore he Kariki, he Hurai ranei, he kotinga, he kotingakore ranei, he Tautangata, Haitiana, pononga, he rangatira ranei: engari ko te Karaiti te katoa, i roto ano i te katoa.
12Put on therefore, as [the] elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering;
12¶ Na, kia rite ki te hunga whiriwhiri a te Atua, ki te hunga tapu e arohaina ana, kakahuria iho hoki te ngakau tohu tangata, te ngawari, te ngakau papaku, te ngakau mahaki, te manawanui;
13forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any should have a complaint against any; even as the Christ has forgiven you, so also [do] *ye*.
13Kia ata hanga koutou tetahi ki tetahi, me te hohou i te rongo tetahi ki tetahi, ki te mea kei tetahi he take riri ki tetahi: kia rite ki ta te Ariki i hohou nei i te rongo ki a koutou, kia pera ano hoki koutou.
14And to all these [add] love, which is the bond of perfectness.
14A hei waho i enei mea katoa uhia ko te aroha, ko te tauhere tika rawa ia.
15And let the peace of Christ preside in your hearts, to which also ye have been called in one body, and be thankful.
15A waiho ma te rangimarie a te Karaiti te whakahaere tikanga i roto i o koutou ngakau: i karangatia hoki koutou ki tenei i roto i te tinana kotahi; kia whakawhetai hoki koutou.
16Let the word of the Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another, in psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God.
16Kia noho nui te kupu a te Karaiti i roto i a koutou i runga i te matauranga katoa; me whakaako, me whakatupato tetahi e tetahi ki nga waiata tapu, ki nga himene, ki nga waiata wairua, me te waiata ano ki te Atua i runga i te aroha noa, i roto i o koutou ngakau.
17And everything, whatever ye may do in word or in deed, [do] all things in [the] name of [the] Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him.
17Ko nga mea katoa hoki e mea ai koutou, ko nga kupu, ko nga mahi ranei, kia meinga katoatia i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki, o Ihu, me te whakawhetai ano ki te Atua, ara ki te Matua, i roto i a ia.
18Wives, be subject to [your] husbands, as is fitting in [the] Lord.
18¶ E nga wahine, kia ngohengohe ki a koutou tane ake, kia rite ai ta te Ariki tikanga.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
19E nga tane, arohaina a koutou wahine, kei kaha hoki te riri ki a ratou.
20Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing in [the] Lord.
20E nga tamariki, whakarongo ki o koutou matua i nga mea katoa: he mea pai hoki tenei ki te Ariki.
21Fathers, do not vex your children, to the end that they be not disheartened.
21E nga matua, kei arita noa ki a koutou tamariki, kei ngakaukore ratou.
22Bondmen, obey in all things your masters according to flesh; not with eye-services, as men-pleasers, but in simplicity of heart, fearing the Lord.
22E nga pononga, kia whakarongo ki o koutou rangatira o te wahi ki te kikokiko i nga mea katoa: kaua hei ta te kanohi mahi, he whakamanawareka tangata hoki tera; engari hei runga i te ngakau tapatahi, me te wehi ano ki te Atua.
23Whatsoever ye do, labour at it heartily, as [doing it] to the Lord, and not to men;
23Ko nga mea katoa e mea ai koutou mahia a ngakautia, hei mea ki te Ariki, a ehara i te mea ki nga tangata;
24knowing that of [the] Lord ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance; ye serve the Lord Christ.
24Me te matau ano, ka homai e te Ariki ki a koutou te utu, ara te kainga: he pononga hoki koutou na te Ariki, na te Karaiti.
25For he that does a wrong shall receive the wrong he has done, and there is no respect of persons.
25Ko te tangata hoki e he ana te mahi, ka whakawhiwhia ano ia ki tana he i mahi ai: kahore hoki he whakapai kanohi.
