歌羅西書 4:9-11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
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。

Colossians 4:9-11
New English Translation
9 I sent him[a] with Onesimus, the faithful and dear brother, who is one of you.[b] They will tell[c] you about everything here.
10 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, sends you greetings, as does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, welcome him). 11 And Jesus who is called Justus also sends greetings. In terms of Jewish converts,[d] these are the only fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.

- Colossians 4:9 tn The Greek sentence continues v. 9 with the phrase “with Onesimus,” but this is awkward in English, so the verb “I sent” was inserted and a new sentence started at the beginning of v. 9 in the translation.
- Colossians 4:9 tn Grk “is of you.”
- Colossians 4:9 tn Grk “will make known to you.” This has been simplified in the translation to “will tell.”
- Colossians 4:11 tn Grk “those of the circumcision.” The verse as a whole is difficult to translate because it is unclear whether Paul is saying (1) that the only people working with him are Jewish converts at the time the letter is being written or previously, or (2) that Aristarchus, Mark, and Jesus Justus were the only Jewish Christians who ever worked with him. Verses 12-14 appear to indicate that Luke and Demas, who were Gentiles, were also working currently with Paul. This is the view adopted in the translation. See M. J. Harris, Colossians and Philemon (EGGNT), 207-8.
