歌罗西书-Colossians 第 2 章

2:1我愿意你们晓得，我为你们和那些在老底嘉，甚至所有在肉身上没有见过我面的人，是何等竭力奋斗，
For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those in Laodicea, even all who have not seen my face in the flesh,
2:2要叫他们的心得安慰，在爱里结合一起，以致丰丰富富的在悟性上有充分的确信，能以完全认识神的奥秘，就是基督；
That their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love and unto all the riches of the full assurance of understanding, unto the full knowledge of the mystery of God, Christ,
2:3一切智慧和知识的宝藏，都藏在祂里面。
In whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.
2:4我说这话，免得有人用花言巧语欺骗你们。
This I say that no one may delude you with persuasive speech.
2:5我在肉身里虽然离开，在灵里却与你们同在，欢喜看见你们整齐有序，并坚定的信入基督。
For even though I am absent in the flesh, yet in the spirit I am with you, rejoicing and seeing your order and the solid basis of your faith in Christ.
2:6你们既然接受了基督，就是主耶稣，
As therefore you have received the Christ, Jesus the Lord, walk in Him,
2:7在祂里面已经生根，并正被建造，且照着你们所受的教导，在信心上得以坚固，洋溢着感谢，就要在祂里面行事为人。
Having been rooted and being built up in Him, and being established in the faith even as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
2:8你们要谨慎，恐怕有人用他的哲学，和虚空的欺骗，照着人的传统，照着世上的蒙学，不照着基督，把你们掳去；
Beware that no one carries you off as spoil through his philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ;
2:9因为神格一切的丰满，都有形有体的居住在基督里面，
For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily,
2:10你们在祂里面也得了丰满。祂是一切执政掌权者的元首；
And you have been made full in Him, who is the Head of all rule and authority.
2:11你们在祂里面也受了非人手所行的割礼，乃是在基督的割礼里，脱去了肉体的身体，
In Him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ,
2:12在受浸中与祂一同埋葬，也在受浸中，借着那叫祂从死人中复活之神所运行的信心，与祂一同复活。
Buried together with Him in baptism, in which also you were raised together with Him through the faith of the operation of God, who raised Him from the dead.
2:13你们从前在过犯，和未受割礼的肉体中死了，神赦免了你们一切的过犯，叫你们一同与基督活过来；
And you, though dead in your offenses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our offenses;
2:14涂抹了规条上所写，攻击我们，反对我们的字据，并且把它撤去，钉在十字架上。
Wiping out the handwriting in ordinances, which was against us, which was contrary to us; and He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.
2:15既将执政的和掌权的脱下，神就把他们公然示众，仗着十字架在凯旋中向他们夸胜。
Stripping off the rulers and the authorities, He made a display of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
2:16所以不拘在饮食上、或在节期、月朔、或安息日方面，都不可让人论断你们，
Let no one therefore judge you in eating and in drinking or in respect of a feast or of a new moon or of the Sabbath,
2:17这些原是要来之事的影儿，那实体却属于基督。
Which are a shadow of the things to come, but the body is of Christ.
2:18不可让人凭故意卑微，并敬拜天使，所作反对你们的判断，骗取你们的奖赏；这等人留恋于所见过的，随着自己肉体的心思，徒然自高自大，
Let no one defraud you by judging you unworthy of your prize, in self-chosen lowliness and the worship of the angels, dwelling on the things which he has seen, vainly puffed up by his mind set on the flesh,
2:19不持定元首；本于祂，全身借着节和筋，得了丰富的供应，并结合一起，就以神的增长而长大。
And not holding the Head, out from whom all the Body, being richly supplied and knit together by means of the joints and sinews, grows with the growth of God.
2:2020-21
If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances:
2:21你们若是与基督同死，脱离了世上的蒙学，为什么仍像在世界中活着，服从那不可拿，不可尝，不可摸等类的规条？
Do not handle, nor taste, nor touch,
2:22这些都是照着人的吩咐和教导，一经使用，就都败坏了。
(Regarding things which are all to perish when used) according to the commandments and teachings of men?
2:23这些事在私意敬拜，自表卑微和苦待己身上，确有智慧之名，但在克制肉体的放纵上，却是毫无价值。
Such things indeed have a reputation of wisdom in self-imposed worship and lowliness and severe treatment of the body, but are not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
