1 F or I want you to know how great is my solicitude for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who '> like yourselves] have never seen my face and known me personally.

Waxaan jeclaan lahaa inaad ogaataan sida weyn oo aan idiinku dadaalayo idinka iyo kuwa La'odikiya jooga iyo in alla intii aan arag wejigayga anoo nool;

2 t hat their hearts may be braced (comforted, cheered, and encouraged) as they are knit together in love, that they may come to have all the abounding wealth and blessings of assured conviction of understanding, and that they may become progressively more intimately acquainted with and may know more definitely and accurately and thoroughly that mystic secret of God, Christ (the Anointed One).

inay qalbiyadoodu dhiirranaadaan, iyagoo jacayl isugu xidhan, iyo inay wada helaan hodantinimada hubaasha waxgarashada, inay ogaadaan qarsoodiga Ilaah, kaas oo ah Masiixa.

3 I n Him all the treasures of wisdom ( comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God) and knowledge and enlightenment are stored up and lie hidden.

Isaga waxaa ku wada qarsoon waxyaalaha qaaliga ah oo dhan oo ah xigmadda iyo aqoonta. La Mid-ahaanshaha Ciise Masiix, Iyo Ka-digidda Cilmiga Beenta Ah

4 I say this in order that no one may mislead and delude you by plausible and persuasive and attractive arguments and beguiling speech.

Taas waxaan u leeyahay inaan ninna idinku khiyaanayn hadal sasabasho ah.

5 F or though I am away from you in body, yet I am with you in spirit, delighted at the sight of your orderly array and the firmness and the solid front and steadfastness of your faith in Christ '> leaning of the entire human personality on Him in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness].

In kastoo aan idinka maqnahay xagga jidhka, weliba waan idinla joogaa xagga ruuxa, anigoo faraxsan oo fiirinaya nidaamkiinna iyo adkaanta rumaysadkiinna, xagga Masiixa.

6 A s you have therefore received Christ, Jesus the Lord, walk (regulate your lives and conduct yourselves) in union with and conformity to Him.

Haddaba sidaad u aqbasheen Rabbi Ciise Masiix, ku socda,

7 H ave the roots firmly and deeply planted, being continually built up in Him, becoming increasingly more confirmed and established in the faith, just as you were taught, and abounding and overflowing in it with thanksgiving.

idinkoo isaga xidid ku yeeshay oo ku dhismay, oo rumaysadkiinna ku adkaaday, taas oo ah sidii laydiin baray, oo aad u mahadnaqa.

8 S ee to it that no one carries you off as spoil or makes you yourselves captive by his so-called philosophy and intellectualism and vain deceit (idle fancies and plain nonsense), following human tradition (men’s ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world), just crude notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe and disregarding Christ (the Messiah).

Iska jira yaan ninna idinku dhicin faylosofiyadiisa iyo khiyaanadiisa bilaashka ah xagga caadooyinka dadka iyo waxyaalaha dunida ugu horreeya oo aan ka iman xagga Masiixa,

9 F or in Him the whole fullness of Deity (the Godhead) continues to dwell in bodily form.

waayo, buuxnaanta Ilaahnimada oo dhammu waa ku jirtaa isagoo jidh leh,

10 A nd you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life. And He is the Head of all rule and authority.

oo waa laydin buuxiyey idinkoo ku jira isagoo ah madaxa taaliye kasta iyo amar kasta.

11 I n Him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, but in a circumcision Christ by stripping off the body of the flesh (the whole corrupt, carnal nature with its passions and lusts).

Oo isaga xaggiisaa laydinkaga guday gudniin aan gacmo lagu samayn markii aad gudniinta Masiixa ku xoorteen jidhka aadmiga.

12 ' > you were circumcised when] you were buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised with Him '> to a new life] through faith in the working of God '> as displayed] when He raised Him up from the dead.

Idinka waxaa isaga laydinkula aasay baabtiiska, kaas oo isaga laydinkula soo kiciyey xagga rumaysadka aad u qabtaan xoogga Ilaah oo shaqeeya oo isaga kuwii dhintay ka soo sara kiciyey.

13 A nd you who were dead in trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh (your sensuality, your sinful carnal nature), brought to life together with, having forgiven us all our transgressions,

Idinkoo ku dhintay xadgudubyadiinnii iyo buuryoqabnimadii jidhkiinna ayuu weliba isaga idinla soo noolaysiiyey, isagoo inaga cafiyey xadgudubyadeennii oo dhan.

14 H aving cancelled and blotted out and wiped away the handwriting of the note (bond) with its legal decrees and demands which was in force and stood against us (hostile to us). This He set aside and cleared completely out of our way by nailing it to cross.

Wuxuu baabbi'iyey dacwadii inoogu qornayd qaynuunnada oo inaga geesta ahayd, oo weliba intuu fogeeyey ayuu ku qodbay iskutallaabta.

15 d isarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it.

Isagu hubkuu ka qaaday taliyayaasha iyo kuwa amarka leh, oo bayaan ayuu u ceebeeyey, isagoo iyaga kaga guulaysanaya.

16 T herefore let no one sit in judgment on you in matters of food and drink, or with regard to a feast day or a New Moon or a Sabbath.

Haddaba ninna yuusan idinku xukumin wax ku saabsan cunto ama cabbid ama maalin iid ah ama bil dhalatay ama maalmaha sabtida,

17 S uch are only the shadow of things that are to come, and they have only a symbolic value. But the reality (the substance, the solid fact of what is foreshadowed, the body of it) belongs to Christ.

kuwaas oo ah hooska waxyaalaha iman doona, laakiinse jidhka waxaa iska leh Masiixa.

18 L et no one defraud you by acting as an umpire and declaring you unworthy and disqualifying you for the prize, insisting on self-abasement and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions he has seen, vainly puffed up by his sensuous notions and inflated by his unspiritual thoughts and fleshly conceit,

Ninna yuusan abaalgudkiinna idinka dulmin isagoo idin oggolaysiinaya is-hoosaysiinta iyo malaa'ig caabudidda, oo dhex gelaya waxyaalaha uusan arkin, oo micnela'aan ugu kibraya maankiisa aadmiga,

19 A nd not holding fast to the Head, from Whom the entire body, supplied and knit together by means of its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

oo aan xajisanayn Madaxa jidhka oo dhammu wax ka helo, oo xubnaha iyo seedaha isku haysta, oo kordhinta Ilaah ku kordha. Nolosha Cusub Oo Ciise Masiix

20 I f then you have died with Christ to material ways of looking at things and have escaped from the world’s crude and elemental notions and teachings of externalism, why do you live as if you still belong to the world?

Haddii aad Masiixa kala dhimateen waxyaalaha dunida ugu horreeya, maxaad sidii idinkoo dunida ku nool isaga hoosaysiisaan qaynuunnada,

21 D o not handle, Do not taste, Do not even touch,

kuwaas oo leh, Ha qaban, Ha dhadhamin, Ha taaban?

22 R eferring to things all of which perish with being used. To do this is to follow human precepts and doctrines.

Waxyaalahaas oo dhan ayaa isticmaal ku wada baabba'aya. Qaynuunnadu waxay ka yimaadeen amarrada iyo cilmiga dadka.

23 S uch have indeed the outward appearance for wisdom, in promoting self-imposed rigor of devotion and delight in self-humiliation and severity of discipline of the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh (the lower nature).

Waxyaalahaasu sida haqiiqada ah waxay leeyihiin muuqasho xigmad ah xagga caabudidda qof naftiisa ku qasbo iyo is-hoosaysiinta iyo saxariirinta jidhka, laakiinse iyagu faa'iido ma leh ay ku hor joogsadaan dherjinta jidhka.
