Colosenses 2
Biblia del Jubileo
2 ¶ Porque quiero que sepáis cuán grande solicitud tengo por vosotros, y por los que están en Laodicea, y por todos los que nunca vieron mi rostro en carne;
2 para que tomen consolación sus corazones, unidos en caridad, y en todas las riquezas de cumplido entendimiento para conocer el misterio del Dios y Padre, y del Cristo;
3 en el cual están escondidos todos los tesoros de la sabiduría y del conocimiento.
4 ¶ Y esto digo, para que nadie osengañe con palabras persuasivas.
5 Porque aunque estoy ausente en cuerpo, no obstante en espíritu estoy con vosotros, gozándome y mirando vuestro orden y la firmeza de vuestra fe en el Cristo.
6 Por tanto, de la manera que habéis recibido al Señor Jesús el Cristo, andad en él;
7 arraigados y sobreedificados en él, y confirmados en la fe, así como lo habéis aprendido, creciendo en ella con acciones de gracias.
8 Mirad que ninguno os engañe por filosofías y vanas sutilezas, según las tradiciones de los hombres, conforme a los elementos del mundo, y no según el Cristo,
9 porque en él habita toda plenitud de la Divinidad corporalmente,
10 y en él estáis cumplidos, el cual es la cabeza de todo principado y potestad.
11 En el cual también sois circuncidados de circuncisión no hecha con manos, con el despojamiento del cuerpo de la carne, en la circuncisión del Cristo;
12 sepultados juntamente con él en el bautismo, en el cual también resucitasteis con él, por la fe de la operación de Dios que le levantó de los muertos.
13 ¶ Y a vosotros, estando muertos en pecados y en la incircuncisión de vuestra carne, os vivificó juntamente con él, perdonándoos todos los pecados,
14 Rayendo la cédula de los decretos que nos era contraria, que era contra nosotros, quitándola de en medio y clavándola en el madero;
15 y despojando los principados y las potestades, sacándolos a la vergüenza en público, confiadamente triunfando de ellos en él.
16 ¶ Por tanto, nadie os juzgue en comida, o en bebida, o en parte de día de fiesta, o de nueva luna, o de sábados;
17 lo cual es la sombra de lo que estaba por venir; mas el cuerpo es del Cristo.
18 Que nadie os gobierne a su voluntad con pretexto de humildad y religión de ángeles, metiéndose en lo que no ha visto, andando hinchado en el vano sentido de su carne,
19 y no manteniendo el vínculo a la cabeza, de la cual todo el cuerpo, alimentado y unido por sus ligaduras y coyunturas, creciendo en aumento de Dios.
20 Pues si sois muertos con el Cristo a los elementos del mundo, ¿por qué como si vivierais al mundo, decretáis ritos:
21 No toques, no gustes, no trates?
22 Los cuales perecen en el mismo uso por ser mandamientos y doctrinas de hombres.
23 Las cuales cosas tienen a la verdad cierta reputación de sabiduría en culto a la voluntad y humildad, y en duro trato del cuerpo; pero no tienen valor alguno contra los apetitos de la carne.

2 Quiero que sepan qué gran lucha sostengo por el bien de ustedes y de los que están en Laodicea, y de tantos que no me conocen personalmente. 2 Quiero que lo sepan para que cobren ánimo, permanezcan unidos por amor, y tengan toda la riqueza que proviene de la convicción y del entendimiento. Así conocerán el misterio de Dios, es decir, a Cristo, 3 en quien están escondidos todos los tesoros de la sabiduría y del conocimiento. 4 Digo esto para que nadie los engañe con argumentos que parecen convincentes. 5 Aunque estoy físicamente ausente, los acompaño en espíritu, y me alegro al ver su buen orden y la firmeza de su fe en Cristo.
Libertad en Cristo
6 Por eso, de la manera que recibieron a Cristo Jesús como Señor, vivan ahora en él, 7 arraigados y edificados en él, confirmados en la fe como se les enseñó y llenos de gratitud.
8 Cuídense de que nadie los cautive con la vana y engañosa filosofía que sigue tradiciones humanas, la que está de acuerdo con los principios[a] de este mundo y no conforme a Cristo.
9 Porque toda la plenitud de la divinidad habita en forma corporal en Cristo; 10 y en él, que es la cabeza de todo poder y autoridad, ustedes han recibido esa plenitud. 11 Además, en él fueron circuncidados, no por mano humana, sino con la circuncisión que consiste en despojarse del cuerpo pecaminoso. Esta circuncisión la efectuó Cristo. 12 Ustedes la recibieron al ser sepultados con él en el bautismo. En él también fueron resucitados mediante la fe en el poder de Dios, quien lo resucitó de entre los muertos.
13 Antes de recibir esa circuncisión, ustedes estaban muertos en sus transgresiones. Sin embargo, Dios nos[b] dio vida en unión con Cristo, al perdonarnos todos los pecados 14 y anular la deuda[c] que teníamos pendiente por los requisitos de la Ley. Él anuló esa deuda que nos era adversa, clavándola en la cruz. 15 Desarmó a los poderes y a las autoridades y, por medio de Cristo,[d] los humilló en público al exhibirlos en su desfile triunfal.
16 Así que nadie los juzgue a ustedes por lo que comen, beben o con respecto a días de fiesta religiosa, de luna nueva o de sábado. 17 Todo esto es una sombra de las cosas que están por venir; la realidad se halla en Cristo. 18 No dejen que les prive de esta realidad ninguno de esos que presumen fingiendo humildad y adoración de ángeles. Los tales hacen alarde de lo que han visto y, envanecidos por su razonamiento humano, 19 no se mantienen firmemente unidos a la Cabeza. Por la acción de esta, todo el cuerpo, sostenido y ajustado mediante las articulaciones y los ligamentos, va creciendo como Dios quiere.
20 Si con Cristo ustedes ya han muerto a los principios de este mundo, ¿por qué, como si todavía pertenecieran al mundo, se someten a preceptos tales como 21 «no tomes en tus manos, no pruebes, no toques»? 22 Estos preceptos, basados en reglas y enseñanzas humanas, se refieren a cosas que van a desaparecer con el uso. 23 Tienen sin duda apariencia de sabiduría, con su afectada devoción, falsa humildad y severo trato del cuerpo, pero de nada sirven frente a los apetitos de la carne.[e]

Colossians 2
Worldwide English (New Testament)
Colossians 2
Worldwide English (New Testament)
2 I want you to know how much I care for you and those in the city of Laodicea, and even all those who have never seen me.
2 I want them to be strong and to love one another. I want them to understand everything. I want them to know in a more perfect way about God's plan, which is Christ.
3 All the wonderful things there are to know about the plan are found in Christ.
4 I say this so that no one may lead you the wrong way by their fine words.
5 Even though I am not with you in body, I am with you in spirit. I am happy to see that you stand together well and that you keep on believing in Christ.
6 You received Christ Jesus the Lord. So live in him.
7 Let your heart be planted in him. Grow up in him. Believe with all your heart what you were taught. And be very thankful to God.
8 Do not let anyone fool you by his wise words. They are not true. They are what men say. They are the teachings of this world and not what Christ says.
9 Christ has everything that God has.
10 And you, too, have everything when you are in him. He rules over every power and ruler.
11 In Christ you were not circumcised by men's hands. But you were circumcised in Christ's way when all the wrong things you did in your bodies were taken away.
12 You were buried with Christ when you were baptised. You were also raised with him to a new life when you were baptised. You were raised because you believed in the power of God who raised Christ from death.
13 You were dead because of the wrong things you had done, and because your lives had not been made clean. But God gave you life with Christ. He forgave you for all the wrong things you did.
14 He wiped out all the things that were written against us in the laws. He took the writing away and nailed it to a cross.
15 He won the victory over powers and rulers. He showed that they had no power at all. He showed the world his victory through the cross.
16 So do not let anyone say you are wrong about what you eat or drink, or about a feast, or a special holy day or a Sabbath day.
17 They are like a shadow of what is to come. But Christ is the body that makes the shadow.
18 Do not let anyone tell you that you are wrong and that to be humble you must worship angels. He talks about things he has not seen. He is very proud, but he has nothing to be proud of, because his thoughts come from his own mind.
19 He is not joined to the real head which is Christ. It is from him that the whole body receives strength and is held together by its joints and muscles. It is from him that the body grows as God makes it grow.
20 Did you die with Christ? Then you left the teachings of this world. So why do you obey laws as if you were still living in this world?
21 I mean laws like this: "Do not touch that. Do not eat this. Do not put your hand on that."
22 All such things are gone as soon as they are used. These are laws made and taught by men.
23 These laws look as if they are good laws. They make a show of doing things for God. They make people humble themselves in some way. They make people control their bodies in certain ways. But they have no power to keep people from doing all the wrong things they want to do.
Colossians 2
New International Version
Colossians 2
New International Version
2 I want you to know how hard I am contending(A) for you and for those at Laodicea,(B) and for all who have not met me personally. 2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart(C) and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery(D) of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.(E) 4 I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.(F) 5 For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit(G) and delight to see how disciplined(H) you are and how firm(I) your faith in Christ(J) is.
Spiritual Fullness in Christ
6 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord,(K) continue to live your lives in him, 7 rooted(L) and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught,(M) and overflowing with thankfulness.
8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy,(N) which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces[a] of this world(O) rather than on Christ.
9 For in Christ all the fullness(P) of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head(Q) over every power and authority.(R) 11 In him you were also circumcised(S) with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh[b](T) was put off when you were circumcised by[c] Christ, 12 having been buried with him in baptism,(U) in which you were also raised with him(V) through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.(W)
13 When you were dead in your sins(X) and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you[d] alive(Y) with Christ. He forgave us all our sins,(Z) 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness,(AA) which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross.(AB) 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities,(AC) he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them(AD) by the cross.[e]
Freedom From Human Rules
16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you(AE) by what you eat or drink,(AF) or with regard to a religious festival,(AG) a New Moon celebration(AH) or a Sabbath day.(AI) 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come;(AJ) the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility(AK) and the worship of angels disqualify you.(AL) Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. 19 They have lost connection with the head,(AM) from whom the whole body,(AN) supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.(AO)
20 Since you died with Christ(AP) to the elemental spiritual forces of this world,(AQ) why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules:(AR) 21 “Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”? 22 These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish(AS) with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.(AT) 23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility(AU) and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.
