2:1
Volo enim vos scire qualem sollicitudinem habeam pro vobis, et pro iis qui sunt Laodiciae, et quicumque non viderunt faciem meam in carne :
For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
我願意你們曉得，我為你們和老底嘉人，並一切沒有與我親自見面的人，是何等地盡心竭力；
2:2
ut consolentur corda ipsorum, instructi in caritate, et in omnes divitias plenitudinis intellectus, in agnitionem mysterii Dei Patris et Christi Jesu :
that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,
要叫他們的心得安慰，因愛心互相聯絡，以致豐豐足足在悟性中有充足的信心，使他們真知上帝的奧祕，就是基督；
2:3
in quo sunt omnes thesauri sapientiae et scientiae absconditi.
in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.
所積蓄的一切智慧知識，都在他裏面藏着。
2:4
Hoc autem dico, ut nemo vos decipiat in sublimitate sermonum.
Now I say this that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.
我說這話，免得有人用花言巧語迷惑你們。
2:5
Nam etsi corpore absens sum, sed spiritu vobiscum sum : gaudens, et videns ordinem vestrum, et firmamentum ejus, quae in Christo est, fidei vestrae.
For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
我身子雖與你們相離，心卻與你們同在，見你們循規蹈矩，信基督的心也堅固，我就歡喜了。
2:6
Sicut ergo accepistis Jesum Christum Dominum, in ipso ambulate,
As therefore you received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in him,
你們既然接受了主基督耶穌，就當遵他而行，
2:7
radicati, et superaedificati in ipso, et confirmati fide, sicut et didicistis, abundantes in illo in gratiarum actione.
rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.
在他裏面生根建造，信心堅固，正如你們所領的教訓，感謝的心也更增長了。
2:8
Videte ne quis vos decipiat per philosophiam, et inanem fallaciam secundum traditionem hominum, secundum elementa mundi, et non secundum Christum :
Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elemental spirits of the world, and not after Christ.
你們要謹慎，恐怕有人用他的理學和虛空的妄言，不照着基督，乃照人間的遺傳和世上的小學就把你們擄去。
2:9
quia in ipso inhabitat omnis plenitudo divinitatis corporaliter :
For in him all the fullness of the Deity dwells bodily,
因為上帝本性一切的豐盛都有形有體地居住在基督裏面，
2:10
et estis in illo repleti, qui est caput omnis principatus et potestatis :
and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power.
你們在他裏面也得了豐盛。他是各樣執政掌權者的元首。
2:11
in quo et circumcisi estis circumcisione non manu facta in expoliatione corporis carnis, sed in circumcisione Christi :
In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ,
你們在他裏面也受了不是人手所行的割禮，乃是基督使你們脫去肉體情慾的割禮。
2:12
consepulti ei in baptismo, in quo et resurrexistis per fidem operationis Dei, qui suscitavit illum a mortuis.
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
你們既受洗與他一同埋葬，也就在此與他一同復活，都因信那叫他從死裏復活上帝的功用。
2:13
Et vos cum mortui essetis in delictis, et praeputio carnis vestrae, convivificavit cum illo, donans vobis omnia delicta :
You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,
你們從前在過犯和未受割禮的肉體中死了，上帝赦免了你們 一切過犯，便叫你們與基督一同活過來；
2:14
delens quod adversus nos erat chirographum decreti, quod erat contrarium nobis, et ipsum tulit de medio, affigens illud cruci :
wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.
又塗抹了在律例上所寫、攻擊我們、有礙於我們的字據，把它撤去，釘在十字架上。
2:15
et expolians principatus, et potestates traduxit confidenter, palam triumphans illos in semetipso.
Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
既將一切執政的、掌權的擄來，明顯給眾人看，就仗着十字架誇勝。
2:16
Nemo ergo vos judicet in cibo, aut in potu, aut in parte diei festi, aut neomeniae, aut sabbatorum :
Let no one therefore judge you in eating or drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
所以，不拘在飲食上，或節期、月朔、安息日都不可讓人論斷你們。
2:17
quae sunt umbra futurorum : corpus autem Christi.
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
這些原是後事的影兒；那形體卻是基督。
2:18
Nemo vos seducat, volens in humilitate, et religione angelorum, quae non vidit ambulans, frustra inflatus sensu carnis suae,
Let no one rob you of your prize by self-abasement and worshiping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
不可讓人因着故意謙虛和敬拜天使，就奪去你們的獎賞。這等人拘泥在所見過的 ，隨着自己的慾心，無故地自高自大，
2:19
et non tenens caput, ex quo totum corpus per nexus, et conjunctiones subministratum, et constructum crescit in augmentum Dei.
and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.
不持定元首。全身既然靠着他，筋節得以相助聯絡，就因上帝大得長進。
2:20
Si ergo mortui estis cum Christo ab elementis hujus mundi : quid adhuc tamquam viventes in mundo decernitis ?
If you died with Christ from the elemental spirits of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,
你們若是與基督同死，脫離了世上的小學，為甚麼仍像在世俗中活着、服從那「不可拿、不可嘗、不可摸」等類的規條呢？
2:21
Ne tetigeritis, neque gustaveritis, neque contrectaveritis :
“Don’t handle, nor taste, nor touch”
你們若是與基督同死，脫離了世上的小學，為甚麼仍像在世俗中活着、服從那「不可拿、不可嘗、不可摸」等類的規條呢？
2:22
quae sunt omnia in interitum ipso usu, secundum praecepta et doctrinas hominum :
(all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men?
這都是照人所吩咐、所教導的。說到這一切，正用的時候就都敗壞了。
2:23
quae sunt rationem quidem habentia sapientiae in superstitione, et humilitate, et non ad parcendum corpori, non in honore aliquo ad saturitatem carnis.
These things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, humility, and severity to the body, but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
這些規條使人徒有智慧之名，用私意崇拜，自表謙卑，苦待己身，其實在克制肉體的情慾上是毫無功效。
