歌罗西书 4
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
4 你们作主人的,待仆人要公正,因为知道,你们也有一位主在天上。
劝导
2 你们要恒切祷告,在祷告中警醒感恩。 3 同时,也要为我们祷告,求 神给我们开传道的门,能宣讲基督的奥秘, 4 使我能按着所该说的话将这奥秘显明出来,我为此而被捆锁。 5 你们要把握时机,用智慧与外人来往。 6 你们的言谈要时常带着温和,好像用盐调味,让你们知道该怎样应对每一个人。
最后的问候
7 推基古是我亲爱的弟兄,忠心的仆役,和我一同作主的仆人;他要把我一切的事都告诉你们。 8 我特意打发他到你们那里去,好让你们知道我们的情况,又让他安慰你们的心。 9 我又打发一位亲爱忠心的弟兄阿尼西谋同去;他也是你们那里的人。他们会把这里一切的事都告诉你们。
10 与我一同坐牢的亚里达古问候你们。巴拿巴的表弟马可也问候你们。关于他,你们已经得到指示;他若到你们那里,你们要接待他。 11 称为犹士都的耶数也问候你们。奉割礼的人中,只有这三个人是为 神的国与我作同工的,也是使我心里得安慰的。 12 有一位你们那里的人,作基督耶稣[a]仆人的以巴弗问候你们。他祷告的时候常为你们竭力祈求,愿你们能站稳而成熟,充分确信 神一切的旨意。 13 他为你们、老底嘉和希拉坡里的弟兄多多劳苦,这是我可以为他作见证的。 14 亲爱的医生路加和底马问候你们。 15 请问候老底嘉的弟兄以及宁法,和她家里[b]的教会。 16 你们宣读了这书信,也要交给老底嘉的教会宣读;你们也要宣读从老底嘉转来的书信。 17 你们要对亚基布说:“务要完成你从主所领受的职分。”
18 我—保罗亲笔问候你们。要记念我在捆锁中。愿恩惠与你们同在!
歌羅西書 4
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
4 你們作主人的,對待奴僕要公平合理,別忘了你們也有一位天上的主。
勉勵禱告
2 你們要以感恩和警醒的心恆切禱告。 3 要為我們禱告,求上帝為我們打開傳道的門,好傳揚基督的奧祕——我就是為此而被囚禁的。 4 也要求上帝使我能盡自己的本分把這奧祕講清楚。
5 你們要把握時機,運用智慧和非信徒交往。 6 談吐要溫和、風趣[a],知道該怎樣回答每個人。
結語
7 有關我一切的事情,推基古會告訴你們。他是我親愛的弟兄,是和我一同事奉主的忠僕。 8 我特意派他去見你們,好讓你們知道我們的近況,並鼓勵你們。 9 這次和他同行的還有另一位忠心的弟兄——親愛的阿尼西謀,他是你們那裡的人。他們會把這裡的詳細情形告訴你們。
問候
10 和我一同坐牢的亞里達古問候你們,巴拿巴的表弟馬可也問候你們。關於馬可,我囑咐過你們,如果他去你們那裡,你們要接待他。 11 耶數,又名猶士都,問候你們。受過割禮的猶太基督徒中,只有這三人和我一同為上帝的國工作,他們是我的安慰。 12 來自你們那裡、作基督耶穌奴僕的以巴弗弟兄問候你們。他常常懇切地為你們禱告,好使你們信心堅定,生命成熟,深知上帝一切的旨意。 13 他為了你們以及老底嘉和希拉波立的弟兄姊妹而不辭勞苦,這是我可以作證的。 14 此外,親愛的路加醫生和底馬也問候你們。 15 請代我問候在老底嘉的弟兄姊妹,也問候寧法姊妹和在她家裡聚會的人。 16 你們當眾宣讀這封信後,也要交給老底嘉教會宣讀,你們也要宣讀老底嘉教會轉給你們的信。 17 請告訴亞基布務要完成主交給他的工作。 18 我保羅親筆問候你們。請你們不要忘記獄中的我。
願上帝的恩典常與你們同在!

Colossians 4
New International Version
4 Masters, provide your slaves with what is right and fair,(A) because you know that you also have a Master in heaven.
Further Instructions
2 Devote yourselves to prayer,(B) being watchful and thankful. 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door(C) for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery(D) of Christ, for which I am in chains.(E) 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise(F) in the way you act toward outsiders;(G) make the most of every opportunity.(H) 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace,(I) seasoned with salt,(J) so that you may know how to answer everyone.(K)
Final Greetings
7 Tychicus(L) will tell you all the news about me. He is a dear brother, a faithful minister and fellow servant[a](M) in the Lord. 8 I am sending him to you for the express purpose that you may know about our[b] circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts.(N) 9 He is coming with Onesimus,(O) our faithful and dear brother, who is one of you.(P) They will tell you everything that is happening here.
10 My fellow prisoner Aristarchus(Q) sends you his greetings, as does Mark,(R) the cousin of Barnabas.(S) (You have received instructions about him; if he comes to you, welcome him.) 11 Jesus, who is called Justus, also sends greetings. These are the only Jews[c] among my co-workers(T) for the kingdom of God, and they have proved a comfort to me. 12 Epaphras,(U) who is one of you(V) and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends greetings. He is always wrestling in prayer for you,(W) that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature(X) and fully assured. 13 I vouch for him that he is working hard for you and for those at Laodicea(Y) and Hierapolis. 14 Our dear friend Luke,(Z) the doctor, and Demas(AA) send greetings. 15 Give my greetings to the brothers and sisters at Laodicea,(AB) and to Nympha and the church in her house.(AC)
16 After this letter has been read to you, see that it is also read(AD) in the church of the Laodiceans and that you in turn read the letter from Laodicea.
17 Tell Archippus:(AE) “See to it that you complete the ministry you have received in the Lord.”(AF)
18 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand.(AG) Remember(AH) my chains.(AI) Grace be with you.(AJ)
