1Masters, supply your slaves with what is right and fair, since you know that you also have a Master in heaven.
1Mwet kacto, kowos in oru in pwaye ac suwohs ma kowos oru nu sin mwet kohs lowos an. Esam lah oasr pac sie mwet Kacto lowos inkusrao.
2Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful,
2Kowos in sikalani in pre, ac esmak in pre lowos, wi sang kulo nu sin God.
3as you pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains.
3Ac ke kowos pre, kowos in oayapa pre kacsr, tuh God El fah ase nu sesr sie pacl wo in fahkak kas lal ke Christ — kas se ma tia eteyuk meet. Tuh pa ingan sripen kapir luk in presin.
4Pray that I may declare it clearly, as I should.
4Ouinge kowos in pre tuh nga in ku in aketeya in kalem, oana ma fal nga in oru.
5Act wisely toward outsiders, redeeming the time.

6Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

7Tychicus will tell you all the news about me. He is a beloved brother, a faithful minister, and a fellow servant in the Lord.
