¹For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

¹Ecen nahi dut daquiçuen cein batailla handia dudan çuengatic eta Laodiceacoacgatic, eta haraguian ene presentiá ikussi eztuten guciacgatic:

²that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,

²Consola ditecençát hayén bihotzac, elkarrequin charitatez iunctaturic, eta adimendu guerthuqui seguratuaren abrastassun gucian, gure Iainco eta Aitaren eta Christen mysterioaren eçagutzetan.

³in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.

³Ceinetan sapientiazco eta scientiazco thesaur guciac gordeac baitirade.

⁴Now this I say that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.

⁴Eta haur erraiten dut nehorc goga eraciteco hitzez engana etzaitzatençát.

⁵For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.

⁵Ecen gorputzez absent banaiz-ere, spirituz ordea çuequin naiz, alegueratzen naicelaric eta ikusten dudalaric çuen reguelá, eta Christ baithan duçuen fedearen fermutassuna.

⁶As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him,

⁶Beraz Iesus Christ Iauna recebitu vkan duçuen beçala, hartan ebil çaitezte:

⁷rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.

⁷Erro eguinac eta edificatuac çaretelaric hartan, eta fedean confirmatuac, iracatsi içan çareten beçala, abundos çaretelaric hartan remerciamendurequin

⁸Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.

⁸Beguirauçue nehorc pilla etzaitzaten philosophiaz eta enganio vanoz, guiçonén ordenancén araura, munduco rudimenten araura, eta ez Christen araura:

⁹For in him all the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily,

⁹Ecen hartan habitatzen da diuinitatezco bethetassun gucia corporalqui.

¹⁰and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power;

¹⁰Eta çarete hartan complituac, cein baita Principaltassun eta Bothere guciaren buruä.

¹¹in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;

¹¹Ceinetan circonciditu-ere içan baitzarete, escuric gabe eguiten den circoncisionez, haraguico bekatuén gorputzaz billuciric, Christen circoncisioneaz:

¹²having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

¹²Harequin ohortze içanic Baptismoaz, ceinez harequin batean resuscitatu-ere baitzarete, Iaincoaren fede botheretsuqui operatzen duenaz, ceinec hura hiletaric resuscitatu vkan baitu.

¹³You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

¹³Eta çuec hilac cinetelaric bekatuetan eta çuen haraguiaren preputioan, harequin batean viuificatu vkan çaituzté, çuey bekatu guciac barkaturic,

¹⁴wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us; and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross;

¹⁴Eta iraunguiric ordenancetan gure contra cen obligançá, cein baitzén gure contrario, baina harc kendu vkan du hura artetic, crutzeari eratchequiric:

¹⁵having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

¹⁵Eta billuciric Principaltassunac, eta Bothereac monstrançatan eraman vkan ditu publicoqui heçaz hartan triumphaturic.

¹⁶Let no one therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,

¹⁶Nehorc bada etzaitzatela condemna ianean, edo edanean, edo besta egunaren, edo ilhargui berriaren, edo Sabbathoén respectuz:

¹⁷which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.

¹⁷Cein baitirade ethorteco ciraden gaucén itzal, baina gorputza Christena da.

¹⁸Let no one rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

¹⁸Nehorc ezteçala çuen gainean seignoria bere placerera humilitatez, eta Aingueruèn cerbitzuz, ikussi eztituen gaucetara bere buruä auançatuz, bere haraguiaren adimenduz erhoqui hanturic:

¹⁹and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.

¹⁹Eta eztatchecalaric buruäri, ceinetaric gorputz gucia iuncturaz eta lothuraz fornituric eta elkarrequin iunctaturic Iaincoaren hacitzez hatzen baita.

²⁰If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,

²⁰Bada baldin hil baçarete Christequin munduco rudimentez den becembatean, cergatic nehorc ordenançaz cargatzen çaituzte, munduan vici bacinete beçala?

²¹“Don’t handle, nor taste, nor touch”

²¹Hala nola, Ezteçála ian, Ezteçála dasta, Ezteçála hunqui.

²²(all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men?

²²Guiçonen manamenduén eta doctrinén arauezco gauça hauc gucioc vsança berez galdu doaça.

²³Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.

²³Badaric-ere gauça hauc badute cerbait sapientia irudi bere vorondatezco deuotionean, eta spirituzco humilitatean, eta gorputza guppida eztuten becembatean: eztirade ordea eceinere preciotaco, ceren haraguia ressasiatzen duten gaucetara beha baitaude.
