Coloseni 2
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
2 Vreau, în adevăr, să ştiţi cât de mare luptă(A) duc pentru voi, pentru cei din Laodiceea şi pentru toţi cei ce nu mi-au văzut faţa în trup; 2 pentru ca(B) să li se îmbărbăteze inimile, să fie uniţi(C) în dragoste şi să capete toate bogăţiile plinătăţii de pricepere, ca să cunoască(D) taina lui Dumnezeu Tatăl, adică pe Hristos, 3 în(E) care sunt ascunse toate comorile înţelepciunii şi ale ştiinţei. 4 Spun lucrul acesta pentru ca(F) nimeni să nu vă înşele prin vorbiri amăgitoare. 5 Căci măcar că(G) sunt departe cu trupul, totuşi cu duhul sunt cu voi şi privesc cu bucurie la buna rânduială(H) care domneşte între voi şi la tăria(I) credinţei voastre în Hristos. 6 Astfel dar, după cum(J) aţi primit pe Hristos Isus, Domnul, aşa să şi umblaţi în El, 7 fiind înrădăcinaţi şi zidiţi în El, întăriţi prin credinţă, după învăţăturile care v-au fost date, şi sporind în ea cu mulţumiri către Dumnezeu. 8 Luaţi seama(K) ca nimeni să nu vă fure cu filozofia şi cu o amăgire deşartă după datina(L) oamenilor, după învăţăturile începătoare ale lumii(M), şi nu după Hristos. 9 Căci în El(N) locuieşte trupeşte toată plinătatea Dumnezeirii. 10 Voi aveţi totul deplin(O) în El, care(P) este Capul oricărei domnii(Q) şi stăpâniri. 11 În El aţi fost tăiaţi împrejur(R) nu cu o tăiere împrejur făcută de mână, ci cu tăierea împrejur a lui Hristos, în dezbrăcarea(S) de trupul poftelor firii noastre pământeşti, 12 fiind îngropaţi(T) împreună cu El prin botez şi înviaţi(U) în El şi împreună cu El prin credinţa(V) în puterea lui Dumnezeu, care(W) L-a înviat din morţi. 13 Pe voi(X), care eraţi morţi în greşelile voastre şi în firea voastră pământească netăiată împrejur, Dumnezeu v-a adus la viaţă împreună cu El, după ce ne-a iertat toate greşelile. 14 A şters(Y) zapisul cu poruncile lui, care stătea împotriva noastră şi ne era potrivnic, şi l-a nimicit pironindu-l pe cruce. 15 A dezbrăcat(Z) domniile şi stăpânirile(AA) şi le-a făcut de ocară înaintea lumii, după ce a ieşit biruitor asupra lor prin cruce. 16 Nimeni dar să(AB) nu vă judece cu privire la mâncare(AC) sau băutură, cu(AD) privire la o zi de sărbătoare, cu privire la o lună nouă sau cu privire la o zi de Sabat, 17 care(AE) sunt umbra lucrurilor viitoare, dar trupul este al lui Hristos. 18 Nimeni(AF) să nu vă răpească premiul alergării, făcându-şi voia lui însuşi printr-o smerenie şi închinare la îngeri, amestecându-se în(AG) lucruri pe care nu le-a văzut, umflat de o mândrie deşartă, prin gândurile firii lui pământeşti, 19 şi nu se ţine strâns de Capul(AH) din care tot trupul, hrănit şi bine închegat, cu ajutorul încheieturilor şi legăturilor, îşi primeşte creşterea pe care i-o dă Dumnezeu. 20 Dacă aţi murit(AI) împreună cu Hristos faţă de învăţăturile începătoare(AJ) ale lumii, de ce, ca şi cum aţi trăi încă în lume, vă supuneţi la porunci ca acestea: 21 „Nu(AK) lua, nu gusta, nu(AL) atinge cutare lucru!” 22 Toate aceste lucruri, care pier odată cu întrebuinţarea lor şi sunt întemeiate pe(AM) porunci şi învăţături omeneşti, 23 au(AN), în adevăr, o înfăţişare de înţelepciune într-o închinare(AO) voită, o smerenie şi asprime faţă de trup, dar nu sunt de niciun preţ împotriva gâdilării firii pământeşti.
Colossians 2
Holman Christian Standard Bible
2 For I want you to know how great a struggle(A) I have for you, for those in Laodicea,(B) and for all who have not seen me in person. 2 I want their hearts to be encouraged(C) and joined together in love, so that they may have all the riches of assured understanding and have the knowledge of God’s mystery(D)—Christ.[a](E) 3 All the treasures of wisdom(F) and knowledge(G) are hidden in Him.
Christ versus the Colossian Heresy
4 I am saying this so that no one will deceive you with persuasive arguments. 5 For I may be absent in body, but I am with you in spirit,(H) rejoicing to see how well ordered you are and the strength of your faith in Christ.
6 Therefore, as you have received(I) Christ Jesus the Lord,(J) walk in Him, 7 rooted and built up in Him(K) and established in the faith, just as you were taught,(L) overflowing with gratitude.
8 Be careful that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit based on human tradition,(M) based on the elemental forces of the world, and not based on Christ.(N) 9 For the entire fullness(O) of God’s nature[b] dwells bodily[c] in Christ, 10 and you have been filled by Him, who is the head(P) over every ruler and authority. 11 You were also circumcised in Him with a circumcision not done with hands, by putting off the body of flesh,(Q) in the circumcision of the Messiah.[d](R) 12 Having been buried with Him(S) in baptism, you were also raised with Him(T) through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.(U) 13 And when you were dead in trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive with Him and forgave us all our trespasses. 14 He erased the certificate of debt, with its obligations, that was against us and opposed to us, and has taken it out of the way by nailing it to the cross.(V) 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities and disgraced them publicly; He triumphed over them by Him.[e](W)
16 Therefore, don’t let anyone judge(X) you in regard to food and drink(Y) or in the matter of a festival or a new moon(Z) or a Sabbath day.[f] 17 These are a shadow(AA) of what was to come;(AB) the substance is[g] the Messiah.(AC) 18 Let no one disqualify you,[h](AD) insisting on ascetic practices(AE) and the worship of angels, claiming access to a visionary realm and inflated(AF) without cause by his unspiritual[i] mind. 19 He doesn’t hold on to the head, from whom the whole body,(AG) nourished and held together by its ligaments and tendons, develops with growth from God.
20 If you died with the Messiah(AH) to the elemental forces of this world, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations: 21 “Don’t handle, don’t taste, don’t touch”? 22 All these regulations refer to what is destroyed by being used up; they are commands and doctrines of men. 23 Although these have a reputation of wisdom(AI) by promoting ascetic practices, humility, and severe treatment of the body, they are not of any value in curbing self-indulgence.[j](AJ)

Colossians 2
New King James Version
Not Philosophy but Christ
2 For I want you to know what a great (A)conflict[a] I have for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh, 2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, [b]both of the Father and of Christ, 3 (B)in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 Now this I say (C)lest anyone should deceive you with persuasive words. 5 For (D)though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing [c]to see (E)your good order and the (F)steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 (G)As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 (H)rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding [d]in it with thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest anyone [e]cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to (I)the tradition of men, according to the (J)basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For (K)in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead [f]bodily; 10 and you are complete in Him, who is the (L)head of all [g]principality and power.
Not Legalism but Christ
11 In Him you were also (M)circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by (N)putting off the body [h]of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, 12 (O)buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through (P)faith in the working of God, (Q)who raised Him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, 14 (R)having wiped out the [i]handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 (S)Having disarmed (T)principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
16 So let no one (U)judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a [j]festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 (V)which are a shadow of things to come, but the [k]substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has [l]not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to (W)the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, (X)grows with the increase that is from God.
20 [m]Therefore, if you (Y)died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, (Z)why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations— 21 (AA)“Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22 which all concern things which perish with the using—(AB)according to the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 (AC)These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and [n]neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.

歌罗西书 2
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
2 我愿意你们晓得,我为你们和老底嘉人,并一切没有与我亲自见面的人,是何等地尽心竭力, 2 要叫他们的心得安慰,因爱心互相联络,以致丰丰足足在悟性中有充足的信心,使他们真知神的奥秘,就是基督, 3 所积蓄的一切智慧知识都在他里面藏着。 4 我说这话,免得有人用花言巧语迷惑你们。 5 我身子虽与你们相离,心却与你们同在,见你们循规蹈矩,信基督的心也坚固,我就欢喜了。
6 你们既然接受了主基督耶稣,就当遵他而行, 7 在他里面生根建造,信心坚固,正如你们所领的教训,感谢的心也更增长了。
防避不合真理的学问
8 你们要谨慎,恐怕有人用他的理学和虚空的妄言,不照着基督,乃照人间的遗传和世上的小学,就把你们掳去。 9 因为神本性一切的丰盛,都有形有体地居住在基督里面; 10 你们在他里面也得了丰盛。他是各样执政掌权者的元首。 11 你们在他里面也受了不是人手所行的割礼,乃是基督使你们脱去肉体情欲的割礼。 12 你们既受洗与他一同埋葬,也就在此与他一同复活,都因信那叫他从死里复活神的功用。
在罪中死蒙恩得活
13 你们从前在过犯和未受割礼的肉体中死了,神赦免了你们[a]一切过犯,便叫你们与基督一同活过来, 14 又涂抹了在律例上所写攻击我们、有碍于我们的字据,把它撤去,钉在十字架上。 15 既将一切执政的、掌权的掳来,明显给众人看,就仗着十字架夸胜。
16 所以,不拘在饮食上或节期、月朔、安息日,都不可让人论断你们。 17 这些原是后事的影儿,那形体却是基督。 18 不可让人因着故意谦虚和敬拜天使,就夺去你们的奖赏。这等人拘泥在所见过的[b],随着自己的欲心,无故地自高自大, 19 不持定元首。全身既然靠着他,筋节得以相助联络,就因神大得长进。
不要在世俗中活着
20 你们若是与基督同死,脱离了世上的小学,为什么仍像在世俗中活着,服从那“不可拿、不可尝、不可摸”等类的规条呢? 22 这都是照人所吩咐所教导的。说到这一切,正用的时候就都败坏了。 23 这些规条使人徒有智慧之名,用私意崇拜,自表谦卑,苦待己身,其实在克制肉体的情欲上是毫无功效。
