歌罗西书 3
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
劝门徒思念上面的事
3 所以,你们若真与基督一同复活,就当求在上面的事,那里有基督坐在神的右边。 2 你们要思念上面的事,不要思念地上的事, 3 因为你们已经死了,你们的生命与基督一同藏在神里面。 4 基督是我们的生命,他显现的时候,你们也要与他一同显现在荣耀里。
弃旧更新
5 所以要治死你们在地上的肢体,就如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲和贪婪,贪婪就与拜偶像一样。 6 因这些事,神的愤怒必临到那悖逆之子。 7 当你们在这些事中活着的时候,也曾这样行过。 8 但现在你们要弃绝这一切的事,以及恼恨、愤怒、恶毒[a]、毁谤并口中污秽的言语。 9 不要彼此说谎,因你们已经脱去旧人和旧人的行为, 10 穿上了新人;这新人在知识上渐渐更新,正如造他主的形象。 11 在此并不分希腊人、犹太人,受割礼的、未受割礼的,化外人,西古提人,为奴的,自主的,唯有基督是包括一切,又住在各人之内。
爱心是联络全德的
12 所以,你们既是神的选民、圣洁蒙爱的人,就要存[b]怜悯、恩慈、谦虚、温柔、忍耐的心。 13 倘若这人与那人有嫌隙,总要彼此包容,彼此饶恕;主怎样饶恕了你们,你们也要怎样饶恕人。 14 在这一切之外,要存着爱心,爱心就是联络全德的。 15 又要叫基督的平安在你们心里做主,你们也为此蒙召,归为一体;且要存感谢的心。 16 当用各样的智慧,把基督的道理丰丰富富地存在心里[c],用诗章、颂词、灵歌彼此教导,互相劝诫,心被恩感歌颂神。 17 无论做什么,或说话或行事,都要奉主耶稣的名,借着他感谢父神。
劝夫妇父子主仆各尽其分
18 你们做妻子的,当顺服自己的丈夫,这在主里面是相宜的。 19 你们做丈夫的,要爱你们的妻子,不可苦待她们。 20 你们做儿女的,要凡事听从父母,因为这是主所喜悦的。 21 你们做父亲的,不要惹儿女的气,恐怕他们失了志气。 22 你们做仆人的,要凡事听从你们肉身的主人;不要只在眼前侍奉,像是讨人喜欢的,总要存心诚实敬畏主。 23 无论做什么,都要从心里做,像是给主做的,不是给人做的。 24 因你们知道,从主那里必得着基业为赏赐,你们所侍奉的乃是主基督。 25 那行不义的必受不义的报应,主并不偏待人。
歌羅西書 3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
追求屬天的事
3 你們既然和基督一同復活了,就應當追求天上的事,那裡有坐在上帝右邊的基督。 2 你們要思想天上的事,而不是地上的事, 3 因為你們的舊生命已經死了,你們的新生命與基督一同藏在上帝裡面。 4 基督就是你們的新生命,祂顯現的時候,你們也必和祂一起在榮耀中顯現。
5 所以,你們要治死身上屬世的罪惡,如淫亂、污穢、邪情、惡慾和貪心,貪心就是拜偶像, 6 因為上帝的烈怒必臨到做這些事的悖逆之人。 7 你們過去也和他們一樣過著罪惡的生活, 8 但現在必須杜絕這一切的惡事,如怒氣、憤恨、惡毒、毀謗和污言穢語。 9 不要彼此說謊,因為你們已經脫去了舊人和舊的行為, 10 穿上了新人。這新人在知識上不斷更新,更像他的造物主。 11 從此,不再分希臘人、猶太人,受割禮的、未受割禮的,野蠻人、未開化的人[a],奴隸和自由人,基督就是一切,並且貫穿一切。
12 所以,你們既然是上帝所揀選的,是聖潔、蒙愛的人,就要心存憐憫、恩慈、謙虛、溫柔和忍耐。 13 倘若彼此之間有怨言,總要互相寬容,彼此饒恕,主怎樣饒恕你們,你們也要照樣饒恕他人。 14 最重要的是要有愛,愛能把一切完美地聯合在一起。 15 要讓基督的平安掌管你們的心,你們就是為此而蒙召成為一個身體。要常存感恩的心。 16 要將基督的話豐豐富富地存在心裡,用各樣智慧彼此教導,互相勸誡,以感恩的心用詩篇、聖樂、靈歌頌讚上帝。 17 你們無論做什麼事、說什麼話,都要奉主耶穌的名而行,並藉著祂感謝父上帝。
和諧家庭
18 你們作妻子的,要順服丈夫,信主的人應當這樣做。 19 你們作丈夫的,要愛妻子,不可惡待她們。 20 你們作兒女的,凡事要聽從父母,因為這是主所喜悅的。 21 你們作父親的,不要激怒兒女,免得他們灰心喪志。 22 你們作奴僕的,凡事要聽從你們世上的主人,不要只做討好人的表面工夫,要以敬畏主的心真誠服侍。 23 無論做什麼事,都要發自內心,像是為主做的,而不是為人做的, 24 因為你們知道自己一定會從主那裡得到基業為獎賞。你們事奉的是主基督, 25 凡作惡的人終必自食惡果,因為上帝不偏待人。

Colossians 3
New International Version
Living as Those Made Alive in Christ
3 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ,(A) set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.(B) 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.(C) 3 For you died,(D) and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[a] life,(E) appears,(F) then you also will appear with him in glory.(G)
5 Put to death,(H) therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature:(I) sexual immorality,(J) impurity, lust, evil desires and greed,(K) which is idolatry.(L) 6 Because of these, the wrath of God(M) is coming.[b] 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived.(N) 8 But now you must also rid yourselves(O) of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander,(P) and filthy language from your lips.(Q) 9 Do not lie to each other,(R) since you have taken off your old self(S) with its practices 10 and have put on the new self,(T) which is being renewed(U) in knowledge in the image of its Creator.(V) 11 Here there is no Gentile or Jew,(W) circumcised or uncircumcised,(X) barbarian, Scythian, slave or free,(Y) but Christ is all,(Z) and is in all.
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves(AA) with compassion, kindness, humility,(AB) gentleness and patience.(AC) 13 Bear with each other(AD) and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.(AE) 14 And over all these virtues put on love,(AF) which binds them all together in perfect unity.(AG)
15 Let the peace of Christ(AH) rule in your hearts, since as members of one body(AI) you were called to peace.(AJ) And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ(AK) dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom(AL) through psalms,(AM) hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.(AN) 17 And whatever you do,(AO) whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks(AP) to God the Father through him.
Instructions for Christian Households(AQ)
18 Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands,(AR) as is fitting in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.
20 Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.
21 Fathers,[c] do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged.
22 Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance(AS) from the Lord as a reward.(AT) It is the Lord Christ you are serving. 25 Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for their wrongs, and there is no favoritism.(AU)

Put On the New Man
3 Therefore, if you have been (A)raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, (B)seated at the right hand of God. 2 [a](C)Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3 For you (D)died and your life has been hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, (E)who is our life, is manifested, (F)then you also will be manifested with Him in glory.
5 (G)Therefore, [b]consider (H)the members of your earthly body as dead to (I)sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which is idolatry. 6 On account of these things, (J)the wrath of God is coming [c]upon the sons of disobedience, 7 and (K)in them you also once walked, when you were living [d]in them. 8 But now you also, (L)lay them all aside: (M)wrath, anger, malice, slander, and (N)abusive speech from your mouth. 9 [e](O)Do not lie to one another, since you (P)put off the old man with its evil practices, 10 and have (Q)put on the new man who is being [f](R)renewed to a full knowledge (S)according to the image of the One who (T)created him— 11 a renewal in which (U)there is no distinction between Greek and Jew, (V)circumcised and uncircumcised, [g](W)barbarian, Scythian, (X)slave, and freeman, but (Y)Christ is all and in all.
12 So, as the (Z)elect of God, holy and beloved, (AA)put on a (AB)heart of compassion, kindness, (AC)humility, gentleness, and [h](AD)patience; 13 (AE)bearing with one another, and (AF)graciously forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone, (AG)just as the Lord graciously forgave you, so also should you. 14 Above all these things put on love, which is [i](AH)the perfect bond of (AI)unity. 15 And let (AJ)the peace of Christ [j]rule in your hearts, to which [k]indeed you were called in (AK)one body, and [l]be thankful. 16 Let (AL)the word of [m]Christ dwell in you richly, [n]with all wisdom (AM)teaching and admonishing [o]one another (AN)with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, (AO)singing [p]with gratefulness in your hearts to God. 17 (AP)And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, (AQ)giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
Family and Work
18 (AR)Wives, (AS)be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 (AT)Husbands, love your wives and do not be embittered against them. 20 (AU)Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is pleasing [q]to the Lord. 21 (AV)Fathers, do not exasperate your children, so that they will not lose heart.
22 (AW)Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters [r]according to the flesh, (AX)not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but with [s]integrity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, do your work [t]heartily, (AY)as for the Lord [u]rather than for men, 24 (AZ)knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward [v]of (BA)the inheritance. [w](BB)Serve the Lord Christ. 25 For (BC)he who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and [x](BD)that without partiality.
