Qolasim (Colossians) 3

1If, then, you were raised with Messiah, seek the matters which are above, where Messiah is, seated at the right hand of Elohim.# Psa. 110:1
2Mind the matters above, not those on the earth.
3For you have died, and your life has been hidden with Messiah in Elohim.
4When the Messiah, who is our life, is manifested, then you also shall be manifested with Him in esteem.
5Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: whoring, uncleanness, passion, evil desire and greed of gain, which is idolatry.
6Because of these the wrath of Elohim is coming upon the sons of disobedience,#See Eph. 2:2; Eph. 5:6
7in which you also once walked when you lived in them.
8But now, also put off all these: displeasure, wrath, evil, blasphemy, filthy talk from your mouth.
9Do not lie to each other, since you have put off the old man#See Rom. 6:6; Eph. 4:22 with his practices,
10and have put on the new one who is renewed in knowledge according to the likeness of Him who created him,
11where there is not Greek and Yehuḏi, circumcised and uncircumcised, foreigner, Scythian, slave, free, but Messiah is all, and in all.
12Therefore, as chosen ones of Elohim, set-apart and beloved, put on compassion, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, patience,
13bearing with one another, and forgiving each other if anyone has a complaint against another, indeed, as Messiah forgave you so also should you.
14But above all these put on love, which is a bond of the perfection.
15And let the peace of Elohim rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one Body, and be filled with thanks.
16Let the Word of Messiah#See John 12:48; Deu. 18:19; Rev. 19:13 dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing with pleasure in your hearts to the Master in psalms and songs of praise and spiritual songs.
17And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the Name of the Master יהושע, giving thanks to Elohim the Father through Him.
18Wives, subject yourselves to your own husbands, as is proper in the Master.
19Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them.
20Children, obey your parents in all, for this is well-pleasing to the Master.
21Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.
22Servants, obey your masters according to the flesh in all respects, not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing Elohim.
23And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Master and not to men,
24knowing that from the Master you shall receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Master, Messiah, you serve.
25But he who does wrong shall be repaid for the wrong which he has done, and there is no partiality.

Colossians 3

Put On the New Self
1Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
5Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry. 6For it is because of these things that the wrath of God will come #Two early mss do not contain upon the sons of disobedienceupon the sons of disobedience, 7and in them you also once walked, when you were living in them. 8But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth. 9Do not lie to one another, since you laid aside the old self with its evil practices, 10and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him— 11a renewal in which there is no distinction between Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, #I.e. those who were not Greeks, either by birth or by culturebarbarian, Scythian, slave and freeman, but Christ is all, and in all.
12So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; 13bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. 14Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. 15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. 16Let the word of #One early ms reads the LordChrist richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
Family Relations
18Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19Husbands, love your wives and do not be embittered against them. 20Children, be obedient to your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord. 21Fathers, do not exasperate your children, so that they will not lose heart.
22Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters on earth, not with external service, as those who merely please men, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, 24knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. 25For he who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and that without partiality.
