Ad Colossenses Epistula
Sancti Pauli Apostoli

Colossenses, chapter 4, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 4

Vulgate


   1 Domini, quod iustum est et aequum, servis praestate, scien tes quoniam et vos Dominum habetis in caelo.
   2 Orationi instate, vigilantes in ea in gratiarum actione,
   3 orantes simul et pro nobis, ut Deus aperiat nobis ostium sermonis ad loquendum mysterium Christi, propter quod etiam vinctus sum,
   4 ut manifestem illud, ita ut oportet me loqui.
   5 In sapientia ambulate ad eos, qui foris sunt, tempus redimentes.
   6 Sermo vester semper sit in gratia, sale conditus, ut sciatis quomodo oporteat vos unicuique respondere.
   7 Quae circa me sunt, omnia vobis nota faciet Tychicus, carissimus frater et fidelis minister et conservus in Domino,
   8 quem misi ad vos ad hoc ipsum, ut cognoscatis, quae circa nos sunt, et consoletur corda vestra,
   9 cum Onesimo fideli et carissimo fratre, qui est ex vobis; omnia, quae hic aguntur, nota facient vobis.
   10 Salutat vos Aristarchus concaptivus meus et Marcus consobrinus Barnabae, de quo accepistis mandata - si venerit ad vos, excipite illum -
   11 et Iesus, qui dicitur Iustus, qui sunt ex circumcisione; hi soli adiutores in regno Dei, qui mihi fuerunt solacio.
   12 Salutat vos Epaphras, qui ex vobis est, servus Christi Iesu, semper certans pro vobis in orationibus, ut stetis perfecti et impleti in omni voluntate Dei.
   13 Testimonium enim illi perhibeo, quod habet multum laborem pro vobis et pro his, qui sunt Laodiciae et qui Hierapoli.
   14 Salutat vos Lucas, medicus carissimus, et Demas.
   15 Salutate fratres, qui sunt Laodiciae, et Nympham et, quae in domo eius est, ecclesiam.
   16 Et cum lecta fuerit apud vos epistula, facite ut et in Laodicensium ecclesia legatur, et eam, quae ex Laodicia est, vos quoque legatis.
   17 Et dicite Archippo: "Vide ministerium, quod accepisti in Domino, ut illud impleas".
   18 Salutatio mea manu Pauli. Memores estote vinculorum meorum. Gratia vobiscum.

King James Version


   1 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 alway 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.

Written from Rome to the Colossians by Tychicus and Onesimus.
