Kološanima poslanica svetog apostola Pavla
Capitolo 1
1
Od Pavla, po volji Božijoj apostola Isusa Hrista i brata Timotija,
2
svetima koji su u Kolosima i vernoj braći u Hristu Isusu: blagodat vam i mir od Boga Oca našeg i Gospoda Isusa Hrista.
3
Zahvaljujemo Bogu i Ocu Gospoda svog Isusa Hrista, moleći se svagda za vas,
4
čuvši veru vašu u Hrista Isusa, i ljubav koju imate k svima svetima,
5
za nadu ostavljenu vama na nebesima, za koju napred čuste u reči istine jevanđelja,
6
koje je u vama, kao i u svemu svetu, i plodno je i raste, kao i u vama, od onog dana kako čuste i razumeste blagodat Božiju u istini,
7
kao što i doznaste od Epafrasa, ljubaznog našeg drugara u služenju, koji je za vas verni sluga Hristov,
8
koji nam i javi vašu ljubav u duhu.
9
Toga radi i mi od onog dana kako čusmo ne prestajemo za vas moliti se Bogu i iskati da se ispunite poznanjem volje Njegove u svakoj premudrosti i razumu duhovnom,
10
da živite pristojno Bogu na svako ugađanje i u svakom dobrom delu da budete plodni, i da rastete u poznanju Božijem,
11
jačajući svakom snagom po sili slave Njegove, i u svakom trpljenju i dugom podnošenju s radošću;
12
zahvaljujući Bogu i Ocu, koji nas prizva u deo nasledstva svetih u videlu;
13
koji nas izbavi od vlasti tamne, i premesti nas u carstvo Sina ljubavi svoje,
14
u kome imamo izbavljenje krvlju Njegovom i oproštenje greha.
15
Koji je obličje Boga što se ne vidi, koji je rođen pre svake tvari.
16
Jer kroz Njega bi sazdano sve što je na nebu i što je na zemlji, što se vidi i što se ne vidi, bili prestoli ili gospodstva ili poglavarstva, ili vlasti: sve se kroza Nj i za Nj sazda.
17
I On je pre svega, i sve je u Njemu.
18
I On je glava telu crkve, koji je početak i prvorođeni iz mrtvih, da bude On u svemu prvi;
19
jer bi volja Očeva da se u Nj useli sva punina,
20
i kroza Nj da primiri sve sa sobom, umirivši krvlju krsta Njegova, kroza Nj sve, bilo na zemlji ili na nebu.
21
I vas koji ste nekad bili odlučeni i neprijatelji kroz pomisli u zlim delima,
22
a sad vas primiri u telu mesa Njegovog smrću Njegovom, da vas svete i bez mane i bez krivice izvede preda se;
23
ako samo ostanete u veri utemeljeni i tvrdi, i nepokretni od nade jevanđelja, koje čuste, koje je propovedano svoj tvari pod nebom, kome ja Pavle postadoh sluga.
24
Sad se radujem u svom stradanju za vas, i dovršujem nedostatak nevolja Hristovih na telu svom za telo Njegovo koje je crkva,
25
kojoj ja postadoh sluga po naredbi Božijoj koja mi je dana među vama da ispunim reč Božiju,
26
tajnu koja je bila sakrivena od postanja sveta i naraštaja, a sad se javi svetima Njegovim,
27
kojima Bog naumi pokazati kako je bogata slava tajne ove među neznabošcima, koje je Hristos u vama, nada slave;
28
kog mi propovedamo savetujući svakog čoveka, i učeći svakoj premudrosti, da pokažemo svakog čoveka savršenog u Hristu Isusu.
29
Zašto se i trudim i borim po Njegovoj moći koja u meni silno čini.
Colossians
Capitolo 1
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,
2
To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3
We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
4
Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
5
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
6
Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
7
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
8
Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
9
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19
For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
20
And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
21
And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
22
In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
23
If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
24
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church:
25
Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
26
Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27
To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28
Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29
Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
