Jess is teh uberdork. Rar!

So, now that I'm out of school for the summer, and the only thing I have to do all day is sleep write smut! role-play look for a job so we don't get evicted for not paying rent for two months running, I might as well take some of that time and enrich my brain. Or something. Whatever. The practical upshot of this is that I've decided that I need to practice more Greek, or I'll lose it, so I'm gonna try to translate a few New Testament verses every week.

This week's got pulled from the sermon I heard yesterday at Plymouth Congregational Church: Colossians 3:12-15.

Handwritten notes

I take some liberties with the text. I try to achieve both a good flow in English and the proper "feel" from the Greek, and while I stay pretty literal, there are places where I interpret a bit freely. Ok, yeah, and my Greek isn't the best, which is why I am practicing.

Jess's translation:
12. As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, dress yourself accordingly, the way you should; clothe yourselves in compassion, mercy, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13. Listen patiently to one another, and if someone lays blame upon another, forgive them and grant pardon, just as the Lord has done for you. 14. Above all, though, garb yourselves in love, which binds everything together in complete perfection.
