歌羅西書 2
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
2 我願意你們曉得，我為你們和老底嘉人，並一切沒有與我親自見面的人，是何等地盡心竭力， 2 要叫他們的心得安慰，因愛心互相聯絡，以致豐豐足足在悟性中有充足的信心，使他們真知神的奧祕，就是基督， 3 所積蓄的一切智慧知識都在他裡面藏著。 4 我說這話，免得有人用花言巧語迷惑你們。 5 我身子雖與你們相離，心卻與你們同在，見你們循規蹈矩，信基督的心也堅固，我就歡喜了。
6 你們既然接受了主基督耶穌，就當遵他而行， 7 在他裡面生根建造，信心堅固，正如你們所領的教訓，感謝的心也更增長了。
防避不合真理的學問
8 你們要謹慎，恐怕有人用他的理學和虛空的妄言，不照著基督，乃照人間的遺傳和世上的小學，就把你們擄去。 9 因為神本性一切的豐盛，都有形有體地居住在基督裡面； 10 你們在他裡面也得了豐盛。他是各樣執政掌權者的元首。 11 你們在他裡面也受了不是人手所行的割禮，乃是基督使你們脫去肉體情慾的割禮。 12 你們既受洗與他一同埋葬，也就在此與他一同復活，都因信那叫他從死裡復活神的功用。
在罪中死蒙恩得活
13 你們從前在過犯和未受割禮的肉體中死了，神赦免了你們[a]一切過犯，便叫你們與基督一同活過來， 14 又塗抹了在律例上所寫攻擊我們、有礙於我們的字據，把它撤去，釘在十字架上。 15 既將一切執政的、掌權的擄來，明顯給眾人看，就仗著十字架誇勝。
16 所以，不拘在飲食上或節期、月朔、安息日，都不可讓人論斷你們。 17 這些原是後事的影兒，那形體卻是基督。 18 不可讓人因著故意謙虛和敬拜天使，就奪去你們的獎賞。這等人拘泥在所見過的[b]，隨著自己的慾心，無故地自高自大， 19 不持定元首。全身既然靠著他，筋節得以相助聯絡，就因神大得長進。
不要在世俗中活著
20 你們若是與基督同死，脫離了世上的小學，為什麼仍像在世俗中活著，服從那「不可拿、不可嘗、不可摸」等類的規條呢？ 22 這都是照人所吩咐所教導的。說到這一切，正用的時候就都敗壞了。 23 這些規條使人徒有智慧之名，用私意崇拜，自表謙卑，苦待己身，其實在克制肉體的情慾上是毫無功效。
歌羅西書 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
2 我希望你們知道，為了你們和老底嘉人，以及許多從未和我見過面的人，我是怎樣努力奮鬥的， 2 為要使你們眾人心受鼓勵，聯結在愛裡，有豐富篤定的真知灼見，可以認識上帝的奧祕。這奧祕就是基督， 3 一切智慧和知識都蘊藏在祂裡面。 4 我講這番話是為了防止有人用花言巧語迷惑你們。 5 現在，我人雖不在你們那裡，心卻和你們在一起，看到你們生活井然有序，對基督堅信不移，我很喜樂。
生活以基督為中心
6 你們既然接受了基督耶穌為主，就當繼續遵從祂， 7 按照你們所受的教導在祂裡面扎根成長，信心堅固，滿懷感恩。
8 你們要謹慎，免得有人用空洞虛假的哲學把你們擄去。這些哲學不是出於基督，而是出於人的傳統和世俗的玄學。 9 因為上帝完全的神性有形有體地蘊藏在基督裡， 10 你們在基督裡得到了豐盛的生命。祂是一切執政者和掌權者的元首。
11 你們也在基督裡受了非人手所行的割禮，是基督為除掉你們的罪惡本性而行的割禮。 12 你們接受洗禮時已經與基督一同埋葬了，並藉著相信上帝使基督從死裡復活的大能，與基督一同復活了。 13 你們從前死在過犯和未被割除的罪惡本性中，但現在上帝卻使你們與基督一同活了過來。上帝赦免了我們一切的過犯， 14 撤銷了指控我們違背律法的罪狀，將它和基督一同釘在了十字架上， 15 打敗了一切在靈界執政、掌權的邪惡勢力，用基督在十字架上的勝利公開羞辱牠們。
16 所以，不可讓人在飲食、節期、朔日[a]或安息日的事上批評你們。 17 這些都不過是將來之事的影子，那真實的本體是基督。 18 有些人喜歡故作謙虛，敬拜天使，沉迷於所看見的幻象，你們不要因他們而失去得獎賞的資格。他們隨從墮落的思想無故自高自大， 19 沒有與身體的頭——基督聯結。全身是靠關節和筋絡維繫，從基督得到供應，按上帝的旨意漸漸成長。
20 你們既然和基督一同死了，擺脫了世俗的玄學，為什麼仍像活在世俗中， 21 服從「不可拿、不可嚐、不可摸」之類的規條呢？ 22 這些規條不過是人的戒律和說教，經不起實踐的考驗， 23 看似充滿智慧，其實只不過是自創的宗教、自表謙卑、苦待己身，對於克制邪情私慾毫無用處。

Colossians 2
King James Version
2 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
