Kolòs 4
Haitian Creole Version
4 ¶ Nou menm mèt yo, aji byen ak domestik nou yo, san fè okenn lenjistis. Chonje byen, nou menm tou nou gen yon mèt nan syèl la.
2 ¶ Pa janm sispann lapriyè. Pa kite dòmi pran nou. Toujou chonje lapriyè pou di Bondye mèsi.
3 Anmenmtan, lapriyè pou mwen tou, pou Bondye ban m' okazyon pou m' fè konnen pawòl li a, pou m' fè lèzòm konnen sekrè Kris la. Se poutèt sekrè sa a menm mwen nan prizon koulye a.
4 Lapriyè pou m' ka rive fè lèzòm wè l' aklè, pou m' ka pale jan mwen dwe pale a.
5 ¶ Pran prekosyon pou nou aji byen avè moun ki pa kretyen yo. Pa kite okenn chans pase.
6 Lè n'ap pale, di bagay ki pou fè yo kontan, ki pou enterese yo. Konn ki jan pou nou reponn chak moun.
7 ¶ Frè Tichik se yon bon zanmi m', yon bon sèvitè Kris la k'ap ban m' yon bon konkou nan sèvis Seyè a. La ban nou tout nouvèl mwen.
8 Mwen voye l' ban nou tout espre pou l' ka di nou jan mwen ye, pou l' ka remoute kouraj nou.
9 Frè Onezim ki moun menm kote ak nou ap vin ansanm avè li. Se yon bon zanmi mwen renmen anpil. Yo tou de va di nou sa k'ap pase bò isit.
10 Aristak ki nan prizon ansanm avè m' voye bonjou pou nou. Mak, kouzen Banabas la, voye bonjou tou. (Mwen te deja di nou sa pou nou fè pou li: resevwa l' byen si l' vin lakay nou).
11 Jezi, ki gen yon ti non Joustous, voye bonjou pou nou tou. Twa mesye sa yo, se yo menm sèlman pami jwif yo k'ap travay avè m' pou gouvènman Bondye ki wa a. Yo te ban m' anpil kouraj.
12 Epafras, ki moun Kolòs tou, voye bonjou pou nou. Sèvitè Kris sa a pa manke lapriyè anpil pou nou pou nou ka rete fèm, pou nou ka fin grandi nèt nan konfyans nou nan Bondye, pou nou ka toujou byen dispoze pou fè tou sa Bondye mande nou.
13 Mwen ka di nou sa: l'ap fatige kò l' anpil pou nou menm moun Kolòs yo, pou moun Lawodise yo ansanm ak moun Yerapolis yo.
14 Lik, bon dòktè mwen an, ansanm ak Demas voye bonjou pou nou tou.
15 Di tout frè Lawodise yo bonjou. Pa bliye Nenfas ansanm ak tout frè ki konn reyini lakay li yo.
16 Lè n'a fin li lèt sa a, voye l' bay legliz Lawodise a pou yo ka li l' tou. Nou menm tou, n'a li lèt moun Lawodise yo va voye ban nou an.
17 Di Achip pou mwen: Fè atansyon. Sèvis yo ba l' fè nan travay Seyè a, se pou l' fè l' byen.
18 Se mwen menm Pòl, ak men pa m', k'ap ekri nou koulye a: Bonjou pou nou tout. Pa bliye m' nan prizon an. benediksyon Bondye pou nou tout.
Colossians 4
New International Version
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)

King James Version
Colossians 4
King James Version
4 Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:
4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
8 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;
9 With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known unto you all things which are done here.
10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)
11 And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
13 For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them that are in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.
15 Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.
16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.
18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen.
