西3:1 所以，你们既然与基督一同复活，就应当寻求天上的事，那里有基督坐在 神的右边。
西3:1 If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
西3:2 你们要思念的，是天上的事，不是地上的事。

西3:4 At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.
西3:5 所以要治死你们在地上的肢体，就如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲和贪心，贪心就是拜偶像。
西3:5 Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods;
西3:6 因着这些事， 神的忿怒必要临到悖逆的人（有些抄本无“悖逆的人”）。

西3:7 你们从前在其中生活的时候，也曾经这样行过。
西3:7 Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things.
西3:8 但现在你们要除去忿怒、恼怒、恶毒、毁谤，以及粗言秽语这一切事。

西3:9 不要彼此说谎，因为你们已经脱去了旧人和旧人的行为，
西3:9 Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,
西3:10 穿上了新人。这新人照着他的创造者的形象渐渐更新，能够充分认识主。
西3:10 And have put on the new man, which has become new in knowledge after the image of his maker;
西3:11 在这一方面，并不分希腊人和犹太人，受割礼的和未受割礼的，未开化的人和西古提人，奴隶和自由人，唯有基督是一切，也在一切之内。
西3:11 Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.
西3:12 所以，你们既然是 神所拣选的，是圣洁、蒙爱的人，就要存怜悯的心肠、恩慈、谦卑、温柔和忍耐。
西3:12 As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;
西3:13 如果有人对别人有嫌隙，总要彼此宽容，互相饶恕；主怎样饶恕了你们，你们也要照样饶恕人。
西3:13 Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:
西3:14 在这一切之上，还要有爱心，爱心是联系全德的。
西3:14 And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.
西3:15 又要让基督的平安在你们心里作主；你们蒙召归为一体，也是为了这个缘故。你们要有感谢的心。
西3:15 And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.
西3:16 你们要让基督的道丰丰富富地住在你们心里，以各样的智慧，彼此教导，互相劝戒，用诗章、圣诗、灵歌，怀着感恩的心歌颂 神。
西3:16 Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.
西3:17 凡你们所作的，无论是言语或行为，都要奉主耶稣的名，借着他感谢父 神。
西3:17 And whatever you do, in word or in act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.
西3:18 你们作妻子的，要顺服丈夫，这在主里是合宜的。
西3:18 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.
西3:19 你们作丈夫的，要爱妻子，不可苦待她们。
西3:19 Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.
西3:20 你们作儿女的，要凡事听从父母，因为这在主里是可喜悦的。
西3:20 Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.

西3:23 无论你们作什么，都要从心里去作，像是为主作的，不是为人作的，
西3:23 Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;
西3:24 因为你们知道，你们一定会从主那里得到基业为赏赐。你们应当服事主基督，
西3:24 Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.
西3:25 但那些不义的人，必按他所行的不义受报应。主并不偏待人。
西3:25 For the wrongdoer will have punishment for the wrong he has done, without respect for any man's position.
