Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 Sha'ul, an apostle of Messiah Yeshua through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother,
2 To the holy ones and faithful brothers in Messiah [who are] at Colossae: Grace to you and shalom from God, our Father, and the Lord, Yeshua the Messiah.
2
to the saints in Colossae, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord, Yeshua the Messiah, praying always for you,
3
We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you,
4 having heard of your faith in Messiah Yeshua, and of the love which you have toward all the holy ones,
4
having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that [is] to all the saints,
5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, whereof you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News,
5
because of the hope that is laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard of before in the word of the truth of the good news,
6 which has come to you; even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and increasing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
6
which is present to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which ye heard, and knew the grace of God in truth;
7 even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Messiah on our behalf,
7
as ye also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful ministrant of the Christ,
8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
8
who also did declare to us your love in the Spirit.
9 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, don't cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
9
Because of this, we also, from the day in which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
10
to your walking worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, in every good work being fruitful, and increasing to the knowledge of God,
11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, to all patience and perseverance with joy;
11
in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy.
12 giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the holy ones in light;
12
Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light,
13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;
13
who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate [us] into the reign of the Son of His love,
14 in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins;
14
in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of the sins,
15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
15
who is the image of the invisible God, first-born of all creation,
16 For by him were all things created, in the heavens and on the eretz, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and to him.
16
because in him were the all things created, those in the heavens, and those upon the earth, those visible, and those invisible, whether thrones, whether lordships, whether principalities, whether authorities; all things through him, and for him, have been created,
17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
17
and himself is before all, and the all things in him have consisted.
18 He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
18
And himself is the head of the body -- the assembly -- who is a beginning, a first-born out of the dead, that he might become in all [things] -- himself -- first,
19 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him;
19
because in him it did please all the fulness to tabernacle,
20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made shalom through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the eretz, or things in the heavens.
20
and through him to reconcile the all things to himself -- having made peace through the blood of his cross -- through him, whether the things upon the earth, whether the things in the heavens.
21 You, being in past times alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works,
21
And you -- once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now did he reconcile,
22 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him,
22
in the body of his flesh through the death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before himself,
23 if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven; of which I, Sha'ul, was made a servant.
23
if also ye remain in the faith, being founded and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the good news, which ye heard, which was preached in all the creation that [is] under the heaven, of which I became -- I Paul -- a ministrant.
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Messiah in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the assembly;
24
I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and do fill up the things lacking of the tribulations of the Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the assembly,
25 of which I was made a servant, according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you, to fulfill the word of God,
25
of which I -- I did become a ministrant according to the dispensation of God, that was given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God,
26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his holy ones,
26
the secret that hath been hid from the ages and from the generations, but now was manifested to his saints,
27 to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Goyim, which is Messiah in you, the hope of glory;
27
to whom God did will to make known what [is] the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations -- which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,
28 whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Messiah Yeshua;
28
whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus,
29 for which I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.
29
for which also I labour, striving according to his working that is working in me in power.
