Darby's Translation

Colossians

4

1Ay imɛellmen ddut s lḥeqq, ur xeddmet ara lxilaf ger iqeddacen nwen, axaṭer teẓram belli ula d kunwi tesɛam amɛellem deg igenwan.
1Masters, give to bondmen what is just and fair, knowing that *ye* also have a Master in [the] heavens.
2Ur ɣefflet ara, meɛna deɛɛut țḥemmidet daymen Sidi Ṛebbi.
2Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving;
3Deɛɛut daɣen fell-aɣ ɣer Sidi Ṛebbi iwakken a ɣ-d-ildi tiwwura a nbecceṛ awal-is, a nxebbeṛ ɣef lbaḍna n Lmasiḥ i ɣef lliɣ di lḥebs,
3praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,
4dɛut iwakken ad sfehmeɣ akken ilaq lbaḍna-agi i yemdanen.
4to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
5Ddut s ṣṣwab zdat wid ur numin ara s Ɛisa Lmasiḥ ; faṛset tagniț, țbecciṛet awal n Ɛisa Lmasiḥ.
5Walk in wisdom towards those without, redeeming opportunities.
6Sɛut iles aẓidan, imeslayen yesɛan lfayda, iwakken aț-țețțarram awal i yal yiwen s ṣṣwab.
6[Let] your word [be] always with grace, seasoned with salt, [so as] to know how ye ought to answer each one.
7Tucik, gma-tneɣ eɛzizen i ɣef țekleɣ, aṛfiq-nneɣ di leqdic ɣef Ssid-nneɣ, a wen-n-yawi lexbaṛ-iw.
7Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-bondman in [the] Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me;
8Ɣef wannect-agi i wen-t-in ceggɛeɣ iwakken a wen-n-yawi lexbaṛ-nneɣ yerna ad ihedden ulawen-nwen.
8whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that he might know your state, and that he might encourage your hearts:
9A d-yas nețța d gma-tneɣ eɛzizen Unizim i ɣef nețkel, yellan d yiwen seg-wen ; d nutni ara wen-n-yawin lexbaṛ ɣef wayen meṛṛa ideṛṛun dagi.

10Aristarchus my fellow-captive salutes you, and Mark, Barnabas's cousin, concerning whom ye have received orders, (if he come to you, receive him,)

11and Jesus called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These [are the] only fellow-workers for the kingdom of God who have been a consolation to me.
12Gma-tneɣ Ibafras n tmurt-nwen, yellan d aqeddac n Ɛisa Lmasiḥ ițsellim-ed fell-awen ; yezga ideɛɛu ɣer Ṛebbi fell-awen iwakken aț-țeṭṭfem, aț-țennernim di liman yerna aț-țilim twejdem aț-țxedmem lebɣi n Sidi Ṛebbi.
