Kolose 3

Hidup yang baru dalam Kristus
3 Kamu sudah dibangkitkan dari kematian bersama Kristus. Jadi, hiduplah bagi apa yang ada di surga, di mana Kristus duduk di sebelah kanan Allah. 2 Pikirkanlah hal-hal di atas, bukan hal-hal di bumi. 3 Hidupmu yang lama sudah mati, dan hidupmu yang baru bersama Kristus disimpan dengan aman untukmu oleh Allah. 4 Ya, ketika Kristus yang adalah pusat hidupmu, datang kembali, kamu akan mengambil bagian dalam segala kemuliaan-Nya.
5 Jadi, singkirkanlah hal-hal jahat yang kamu gunakan dengan tubuhmu: melakukan dosa percabulan, menjadi tidak bermoral, membiarkan hawa nafsu menguasaimu dan mengingini hal-hal yang tidak benar. Dan janganlah terus mengingini hal-hal yang berlebihan untuk dirimu sendiri, itu sama seperti penyembahan berhala. 6 Allah akan menunjukkan kemarahan-Nya terhadap orang-orang yang tidak taat kepada-Nya,[a] karena mereka melakukan hal-hal jahat itu. 7 Dahulu kamu juga melakukan hal-hal itu, ketika kamu hidup seperti mereka.
8 Tetapi sekarang buanglah semuanya ini dari hidupmu: kemarahan, kehilangan kesabaran, perbuatan atau perkataan yang menyakiti orang lain dan penggunaan kata-kata yang kotor. 9 Janganlah saling membohongi karena kamu telah menanggalkan manusia lama dan perbuatannya. 10 Sekarang kamu mengenakan hidup baru, hidup yang terus diperbarui setiap hari. Kamu bertumbuh dalam pengertianmu tentang Dia yang memberikan hidup baru ini dan menjadi seperti Dia. 11 Dalam hidup baru ini tidak ada lagi perbedaan apakah kamu orang Yunani atau orang Yahudi, disunat atau tidak, orang Skit[b] atau bukan, hamba atau bebas. Kristus adalah segala-galanya dan Ia hidup di dalam kita semua.
Hidup yang baru dengan sesama
12 Sebagai umat pilihan Allah yang kudus dan dikasihi-Nya, hidup barumu haruslah ditunjukkan dengan kemurahan hati, keramahan, kerendahan hati, kelemah-lembutan dan kesabaran. 13 Bersabarlah terhadap sesamamu dan saling mengampunilah. Jika kamu merasa seorang sudah berbuat salah kepadamu, Ampunilah mereka. Ampunilah orang lain karena Tuhan sudah mengampuni kamu. 14 Dan yang terpenting dari semuanya ini adalah kasih. Kasihlah yang menyatukan semuanya dalam kesatuan yang sempurna. 15 Biarlah damai Kristus menguasai pikiranmu. Karena demi kedamaian kamu dipilih bersama-sama dalam satu tubuh.[c] Dan bersyukurlah selalu.
16 Biarlah pengajaran Kristus tinggal di dalammu dengan berlimpah. Gunakanlah semua hikmat untuk saling mengajar dan menasihati. Nyanyikanlah mazmur, kidung pujian dan nyanyian rohani dengan bersyukur kepada Allah. 17 Apa pun yang kamu lakukan dalam perkataan atau perbuatan, lakukanlah semuanya itu dalam nama Tuhan Yesus. Dan bersyukurlah kepada Allah Bapa melalui Yesus.
Hidup yang baru dalam rumah tangga
18 Istri-istri, bersedialah untuk melayani suamimu. Ini sungguh benar untuk dilakukan untuk menaati Tuhan.
19 Suami-suami, kasihilah istrimu dan janganlah marah kepada mereka.
20 Anak-anak, taatilah orang tuamu dalam segala sesuatu karena itulah yang menyenangkan Tuhan.
21 Bapak-bapak, janganlah mengecewakan anak-anakmu. Kalau kamu sulit untuk disenangkan, mereka bisa patah semangat.
22 Hamba-hamba, taatilah tuan-tuanmu dalam segala hal. Taatilah mereka setiap saat, meskipun mereka tidak mengawasimu. Janganlah berpura-pura bekerja keras untuk mendapat perawatan khusus, tetapi layanilah tuan-tuanmu dengan tulus hati karena kamu takut akan Tuhan. 23 Pekerjaan apa pun yang diberikan kepadamu, lakukanlah sebaik mungkin. Bekerjalah seolah-olah kamu bekerja untuk Tuhan, bukan untuk manusia. 24 Ingatlah bahwa kamu akan menerima pahalamu dari Tuhan, yang akan memberikan padamu apa yang telah Ia janjikan kepada umat-Nya. Benar, kamu sedang melayani Kristus. Ia adalah Tuanmu[d] yang sesungguhnya. 25 Ingatlah bahwa siapa pun yang melakukan pelanggaran akan dihukum karena pelanggaran itu. Dan Allah tidak memandang muka.

Colossians 3
King James Version
3 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
Colossians 3
New King James Version
Not Carnality but Christ
3 If then you were (A)raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, (B)where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the (C)earth. 3 (D)For you died, (E)and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 (F)When Christ who is (G)our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in (H)glory.
5 (I)Therefore put to death (J)your members which are on the earth: (K)fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, (L)which is idolatry. 6 (M)Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon (N)the sons of disobedience, 7 (O)in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.
8 (P)But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who (Q)is renewed in knowledge (R)according to the image of Him who (S)created him, 11 where there is neither (T)Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, (U)but Christ is all and in all.
Character of the New Man
12 Therefore, (V)as the elect of God, holy and beloved, (W)put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 (X)bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14 (Y)But above all these things (Z)put on love, which is the (AA)bond of perfection. 15 And let (AB)the peace of God rule in your hearts, (AC)to which also you were called (AD)in one body; and (AE)be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another (AF)in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And (AG)whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
The Christian Home(AH)
18 (AI)Wives, submit to your own husbands, (AJ)as is fitting in the Lord.
19 (AK)Husbands, love your wives and do not be (AL)bitter toward them.
20 (AM)Children, obey your parents (AN)in all things, for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
21 (AO)Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.
22 (AP)Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God. 23 (AQ)And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24 (AR)knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; (AS)for[a] you serve the Lord Christ. 25 But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and (AT)there is no partiality.

Living as Those Made Alive in Christ
3 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ,(A) set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.(B) 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.(C) 3 For you died,(D) and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[a] life,(E) appears,(F) then you also will appear with him in glory.(G)
5 Put to death,(H) therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature:(I) sexual immorality,(J) impurity, lust, evil desires and greed,(K) which is idolatry.(L) 6 Because of these, the wrath of God(M) is coming.[b] 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived.(N) 8 But now you must also rid yourselves(O) of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander,(P) and filthy language from your lips.(Q) 9 Do not lie to each other,(R) since you have taken off your old self(S) with its practices 10 and have put on the new self,(T) which is being renewed(U) in knowledge in the image of its Creator.(V) 11 Here there is no Gentile or Jew,(W) circumcised or uncircumcised,(X) barbarian, Scythian, slave or free,(Y) but Christ is all,(Z) and is in all.
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves(AA) with compassion, kindness, humility,(AB) gentleness and patience.(AC) 13 Bear with each other(AD) and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.(AE) 14 And over all these virtues put on love,(AF) which binds them all together in perfect unity.(AG)
15 Let the peace of Christ(AH) rule in your hearts, since as members of one body(AI) you were called to peace.(AJ) And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ(AK) dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom(AL) through psalms,(AM) hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.(AN) 17 And whatever you do,(AO) whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks(AP) to God the Father through him.

Put On the New Self
3 (A)If then you have been raised with Christ, seek (B)the things that are above, where Christ is, (C)seated at the right hand of God. 2 (D)Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. 3 For (E)you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ (F)who is your[a] life (G)appears, then you also will appear with him (H)in glory.
5 (I)Put to death therefore (J)what is earthly in you:[b] (K)sexual immorality, impurity, (L)passion, evil desire, and covetousness, (M)which is idolatry. 6 (N)On account of these the wrath of God is coming.[c] 7 (O)In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now (P)you must put them all away: (Q)anger, wrath, malice, (R)slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 (S)Do not lie to one another, seeing that (T)you have put off (U)the old self[d] with its practices 10 and (V)have put on (W)the new self, (X)which is being renewed in knowledge (Y)after the image of (Z)its creator. 11 (AA)Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave,[e] free; but Christ is (AB)all, and in all.
12 (AC)Put on then, as (AD)God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, (AE)compassionate hearts, (AF)kindness, (AG)humility, meekness, and patience, 13 (AH)bearing with one another and, (AI)if one has a complaint against another, (AJ)forgiving each other; (AK)as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on (AL)love, which (AM)binds everything together in (AN)perfect harmony. 15 And let (AO)the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called (AP)in one body. And (AQ)be thankful. 16 Let (AR)the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, (AS)singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, (AT)with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And (AU)whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, (AV)giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Rules for Christian Households
