Colossians · Πρὸς Κολοσσαεῖς

Colossians 2:8

βλέπετε μή τις ὑμᾶς ἔσται ὁ συλαγωγῶν διὰ τῆς φιλοσοφίας καὶ κενῆς ἀπάτης, κατὰ τὴν παράδοσιν τῶν ἀνθρώπων, κατὰ τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου, καὶ οὐ κατὰ Χριστόν·
blepete mē tis ymas estai o sylagōgōn dia tēs philosophias kai kenēs apatēs, kata tēn paradosin tōn anthrōpōn, kata ta stoicheia toy kosmoy, kai oy kata Christon·
King James Version (KJV)

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Modern English

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.
