1 I am being held in prison because of working for the Lord. I ask you from my heart to live and work the way the Lord expected you to live and work.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed anigoo maxbuus ku ah Rabbiga, waxaan idinka baryayaa inaad yeedhistii laydiinku yeedhay ugu socotaan si istaahil ah,

2 L ive and work without pride. Be gentle and kind. Do not be hard on others. Let love keep you from doing that.

idinkoo leh is-hoosaysiin iyo qalbiqaboobaan oo dhan iyo samir, oo midkiinba midka kale jacayl ugu dulqaadanayo.

3 W ork hard to live together as one by the help of the Holy Spirit. Then there will be peace.

Ku dadaala inaad midownimada xagga Ruuxa ku xajisaan xidhiidhka nabadda.

4 T here is one body and one Spirit. There is one hope in which you were called.

Haddaba waxaa jira jidh keliya iyo Ruux keliya, xataa sida idinka laydiinkugu yeedhay rajo keliya xagga yeedhistiinnii.

5 T here is one Lord and one faith and one baptism.

Oo waxaa jira Rabbi keliya iyo iimaan keliya iyo baabtiis keliya,

6 T here is one God. He is the Father of us all. He is over us all. He is the One working through us all. He is the One living in us all.

iyo Ilaah keliya oo kulli Aabbe u ah, oo wax walba ka sarreeya, oo wax walba ka dhex shaqeeya, oo wax walba ku jira.

7 L oving-favor has been given to each one of us. We can see how great it is by the gift of Christ.

Laakiinse midkeen kastaba nimcada waxaa laynoo siiyey sida ay tahay qiyaasta hadiyadda Masiixa.

8 T he Holy Writings say, “When Christ went up to heaven, He took those who were held with Him. He gave gifts to men.”

Sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu yidhi, Markuu kor u baxay ayuu wuxuu qabtay oo kaxeeyey kuwii maxaabiista ahaan jiray, Wuxuuna dadka siiyey hadiyado.

9 W hen they say, “He went up,” what does it mean but that He had first gone down to the deep parts of the earth?

Haddaba, kor buu u baxay, micneheedu waa maxay haddayan ahayn inuu isagu hoos ugu degtay meelaha dhulka ugu hooseeya?

10 C hrist Who went down into the deep also went up far above the heavens. He did this to fill all the world with Himself.

Waa isla kii hoos u degtay kan haddana kor u baxay oo samooyinka oo dhan ka sara maray si uu isaga buuxiyo wax kastaba.

11 C hrist gave gifts to men. He gave to some the gift to be missionaries, some to be preachers, others to be preachers who go from town to town. He gave others the gift to be church leaders and teachers.

Oo qaar wuxuu ka dhigay inay ahaadaan rasuullo, qaarna nebiyo, qaarna wacdiyayaal, qaarna kuwo kiniisadda dhaqaaleeya, iyo macallimiin.

12 T hese gifts help His people work well for Him. And then the church which is the body of Christ will be made strong.

Sababtuna waa kaamilidda quduusiinta xagga shuqulka adeegidda, iyo xagga dhisidda jidhka Masiixa,

13 A ll of us are to be as one in the faith and in knowing the Son of God. We are to be full-grown Christians standing as high and complete as Christ is Himself.

ilaa aynu wada gaadhno midnimada rumaysadka iyo aqoonta Wiilka Ilaah oo aynu noqonno dad waaweyn xagga qiyaasta koridda ee buuxnaanta Masiixa.

14 T hen we will not be as children any longer. Children are like boats thrown up and down on big waves. They are blown with the wind. False teaching is like the wind. False teachers try everything possible to make people believe a lie,

Waa inaynaan mar dambe ahaan carruur rogrogmanaysa oo lagu kaxaysto dabayl kasta oo cilmi ah xagga dulanka dadka iyo khiyaanada iyo sirta qaladka.

15 b ut we are to hold to the truth with love in our hearts. We are to grow up and be more like Christ. He is the leader of the church.

Laakiinse innagoo si jacayl ah runta ugu hadlayna aynu wax walba ku korno xaggiisa, kan madaxa ah oo ah Masiixa,

16 C hrist has put each part of the church in its right place. Each part helps other parts. This is what is needed to keep the whole body together. In this way, the whole body grows strong in love. The Old and the New Life

kaas oo jidhka oo dhammu si wanaagsan isugu haysto oo isugu wada xidhan yahay caawimaadda xubin kastaaba keento sida xubin kastaaba u shaqayso qiyaasteeda oo ugu kordhiso jidhka inuu jacayl ku dhismo. Noloshii Hore Iyo Tan Cusub

17 I tell you this in the name of the Lord: You must not live any longer like the people of the world who do not know God. Their thoughts are foolish.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga waan idiinkugu markhaati furayaa, oo waxaan idinku leeyahay, Mar dambe ha ugu soconina sida dad aan Ilaah aaminin ugu socdaan xumaanta maankooda.

18 T heir minds are in darkness. They are strangers to the life of God. This is because they have closed their minds to Him and have turned their hearts away from Him.

Waxgarashadoodii way madoobaatay, oo jaahilnimada iyaga ku jirta aawadeed iyo qalbi engegnaantooda aawadeed ayay ajanabi uga noqdeen nolosha Ilaah.

19 T hey do not care anymore about what is right or wrong. They have turned themselves over to the sinful ways of the world and are always wanting to do every kind of sinful act they can think of.

Iyagoo xishood beelay waxay isu daayeen nijaas inay wasakh kasta hunguriweynaan ku sameeyaan.

20 B ut you did not learn anything like this from Christ.

Laakiinse idinku Masiixa sidaas kuma aydnaan baran,

21 I f you have heard of Him and have learned from Him,

hadday run tahay inaad isaga maqasheen oo isaga laydinku baray sida runtu Ciise ugu jirto.

22 p ut away the old person you used to be. Have nothing to do with your old sinful life. It was sinful because of being fooled into following bad desires.

Waa inaad iska xoortaan dabiicaddii hore, oo ku saabsanayd socodkiinnii aad ku socon jirteen, taas oo kharribanta xagga damacyada khiyaanada;

23 L et your minds and hearts be made new.

oo waa inaad ku cusboonaataan ruuxa maankiinna,

24 Y ou must become a new person and be God-like. Then you will be made right with God and have a true holy life.

oo aad huwataan dabiicadda cusub oo loo abuuray inay Ilaah ugu ekaato xaqnimada iyo quduusnimada runta. Amarrada Ku Saabsan Nolosha Masiixiyiinta

25 S o stop lying to each other. Tell the truth to your neighbor. We all belong to the same body.

Sidaas daraaddeed beenta iska fogeeya, oo midkiin waluba deriskiisa run ha kula hadlo, waayo, innaga midkeenba midka kale wuxuu u yahay xubnihiisa.

26 I f you are angry, do not let it become sin. Get over your anger before the day is finished.

Haddaad cadhootaan, ha dembaabina. Qorraxdu yay idinka dhicin idinkoo cadhaysan.

27 D o not let the devil start working in your life.

Ibliiskana meel ha siinina.

28 A nyone who steals must stop it! He must work with his hands so he will have what he needs and can give to those who need help.

Kii wax xadi jiray yuusan mar dambe wax xadin, laakiinse ha hawshoodo isagoo gacmihiisa ku shaqaynaya oo wax wanaagsan samaynaya si uu u haysto wax uu siiyo ka wax u baahan.

29 W atch your talk! No bad words should be coming from your mouth. Say what is good. Your words should help others grow as Christians.

Hadal qudhun ahu yuusan afkiinna ka soo bixin, laakiinse ku hadla waxa u wanaagsan dhisidda loo baahan yahay inay nimceeyaan kuwa maqla.

30 D o not make God’s Holy Spirit have sorrow for the way you live. The Holy Spirit has put a mark on you for the day you will be set free.

Ha calool xumaynina Ruuxa Quduuska ah oo Ilaah oo laydiinku shaabadeeyey maalinta madaxfurashada.

31 P ut out of your life all these things: bad feelings about other people, anger, temper, loud talk, bad talk which hurts other people, and bad feelings which hurt other people.

Haddaba qadhaadh iyo dhirif iyo cadho iyo qaylo iyo cay oo dhammi ha idinka fogaadeen iyo xumaan kastaaba;

32 Y ou must be kind to each other. Think of the other person. Forgive other people just as God forgave you because of Christ’s death on the cross.

oo idinka midkiinba midka kale ha u roonaado, oo ha u qalbi jilicsanaado, idinkoo iscafiyaya sidii Ilaahba Masiixa idiinku cafiyey.
