4:1

οἱ κύριοι, τὸ δίκαιον καὶ τὴν ἰσότητα τοῖς δούλοις παρέχεσθε, εἰδότες ὅτι καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔχετε κύριον ἐν οὐρανῷ.

Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

你們作主人的，要公公平平地待僕人，因為知道你們也有一位主在天上。

4:2

Τῇ προσευχῇ προσκαρτερεῖτε, γρηγοροῦντες ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν εὐχαριστίᾳ,

Continue steadfastly in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving,

你們要恆切禱告，在此警醒感恩。

4:3

προσευχόμενοι ἅμα καὶ περὶ ἡμῶν, ἵνα ὁ θεὸς ἀνοίξῃ ἡμῖν θύραν τοῦ λόγου, λαλῆσαι τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ Χριστοῦ, δι’ ὃ καὶ δέδεμαι,

praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds,

也要為我們禱告，求上帝給我們開傳道的門，能以講基督的奧祕（我為此被捆鎖），

4:4

ἵνα φανερώσω αὐτὸ ὡς δεῖ με λαλῆσαι.

that I may reveal it as I ought to speak.

叫我按着所該說的話將這奧祕發明出來。

4:5

Ἐν σοφίᾳ περιπατεῖτε πρὸς τοὺς ἔξω, τὸν καιρὸν ἐξαγοραζόμενοι.

Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

你們要愛惜光陰，用智慧與外人交往。

4:6

ὁ λόγος ὑμῶν πάντοτε ἐν χάριτι, ἅλατι ἠρτυμένος, εἰδέναι πῶς δεῖ ὑμᾶς ἑνὶ ἑκάστῳ ἀποκρίνεσθαι.

Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

你們的言語要常常帶着和氣，好像用鹽調和，就可知道該怎樣回答各人。

4:7

Τὰ κατ’ ἐμὲ πάντα γνωρίσει ὑμῖν Τυχικὸς ὁ ἀγαπητὸς ἀδελφὸς καὶ πιστὸς διάκονος καὶ σύνδουλος ἐν κυρίῳ,

All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow bondservant in the Lord.

有我親愛的兄弟推基古要將我一切的事都告訴你們。他是忠心的執事，和我一同作主的僕人。

4:8

ὃν ἔπεμψα πρὸς ὑμᾶς εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο, ἵνα γνῶτε τὰ περὶ ἡμῶν καὶ παρακαλέσῃ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν,

I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,

我特意打發他到你們那裏去，好叫你們知道我們的光景，又叫他安慰你們的心。

4:9

σὺν Ὀνησίμῳ τῷ πιστῷ καὶ ἀγαπητῷ ἀδελφῷ, ὅς ἐστιν ἐξ ὑμῶν· πάντα ὑμῖν γνωρίσουσιν τὰ ὧδε.

together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you everything that is going on here.

我又打發一位親愛忠心的兄弟阿尼西謀同去；他也是你們那裏的人。他們要把這裏一切的事都告訴你們。
