1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Colossians 4

1 He exhorteth them to be fervent in prayer, 5 to walk wisely toward them that are not yet come to the true knowledge of Christ. 10 He saluteth them, and wisheth them all prosperity.

 4:1 ¶ The masters! that which is righteous and equal to the servants give ye, having known that ye also have a Master in the heavens.

 4:2 In the prayer continue ye, watching in it in thanksgiving;

 4:3 praying at the same time also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Christ, because of which also I have been bound,

 4:4 that I may manifest it, as it behoveth me to speak;

 4:5 in wisdom walk ye toward those without, the time forestalling;

 4:6 your word always in grace—with salt being seasoned—to know how it behoveth you to answer each one.

 4:7 All the things concerning me make known to you shall Tychicus—the beloved brother, and faithful ministrant, and fellow-servant in the Lord—

 4:8 whom I did send unto you for this very thing, that he might know the things concerning you, and might comfort your hearts,

 4:9 with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is of you; all things to you shall they make known that [are] here.

 4:10 Salute you doth Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, and Marcus, the nephew of Barnabas, (concerning whom ye did receive commands—if he may come unto you receive him,)

 4:11 and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only [are] fellow-workers for the reign of God who did become a comfort to me.

 4:12 Salute you doth Epaphras, who [is] of you, a servant of Christ, always striving for you in the prayers, that ye may stand perfect and made full in all the will of God,

 4:13 for I do testify to him, that he hath much zeal for you, and those in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.

 4:14 Salute you doth Lukas, the beloved physician, and Demas;

 4:15 salute ye those in Laodicea—brethren, and Nymphas, and the assembly in his house;

 4:16 and when the epistle may be read with you, cause that also in the assembly of the Laodiceans it may be read, and the [epistle] from Laodicea that ye also may read;

 4:17 and say to Archippus, 'See to the ministration that thou didst receive in the Lord, that thou mayest fulfil it.'

 4:18 The salutation by the hand of me, Paul; remember my bonds; the grace [is] with you. Amen.
