< Filibai 1 >
1 Bolo amola Dimodi, Yesu Gelesu Ea hawa: hamosu dunu, ania amo meloa dilima dedesa. Dilia huluane Yesu Gelesuma madelagi dunu, amola Yesu Gelesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ouligisu dunu amola fidisu dunu, dilima imunusa: ania dedene iaha.
This letter comes from Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all God's people in Christ Jesus living in Philippi, and to the church leaders and assistants.
2 Ninia Ada Gode amola Hina Yesu Gelesu Ea hahawane dogolegele iasu amola olofosu hou, dilima ima: ne na dawa: lala.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Eso huluane na da dilia hou dawa: loba, na da Godema nodone sia: sa.
When I think of you I'm so thankful to my God,
4 Musa: degabo na da Gode Ea Sia: ida: iwane gala dilima olelei. Musa: ganini misini wali esoga, na da Gode Sia: olelebeba: le, dilia da mae yolesili, na noga: le fidi. Amaiba: le, na da dili fidima: ne Godema sia: ne gadosea, hahawane sia: ne gadolala.
and I'm always glad to remember all of you in my prayers,
because you've been partners with me in spreading the good news right from the beginning up till now.
6 Dilia noga: le fidibiba: le, Gode Ea hahawane dogolegele hawa: dilia dogo ganodini degabo hemoi, da mae yolesili hamonanumu, na dawa: Yesu Gelesu Ea bu misunu eso amoga, Gode da amo hawa: hamosu dagomu, na dafawaneyale dawa: be.
I'm absolutely sure that God who began this good work in you will continue working and bring it to a successful conclusion when Jesus Christ returns.
7 Dilia da na dogolegei dunu. Amaiba: le, na da dilima asigimu da defea. Musa: na da udigili lalu amo esoga, Gode da fidibiba: le, dunu huluane ilia amo sia: gasawane lalegaguma: ne, na da gasawane, moloidafa olelei. Wali na da se iasu diasu ganodini esalebeba: le, na da mae yolesili, amo hou olelelala. Amo olelemusa: , musa: dilia huluane gilisili fidisu, amola wali fidilala. Amaiba: le, na da dilima bagade asigisa.
It's appropriate for me to be thinking this way about all of you because you mean so much to me. Whether I'm in prison or out there making the good news clear, all of you share God's grace together with me.
8 Gode da na ba: su dunu esala! Na da dilima dafawane sia: sa! Na fofagi hou dili huluanema da Yesu Gelesu Ea dogoga maha.
God is my witness as to my great affection for every one of you in the caring love of Christ Jesus.
9 Dilia eno dunuma asigi hou, bagade dawa: su hou amola asigi dawa: suga fofada: su hou, amo da gilisili asigilama: ne, na da Godema sia: ne gadosa.
My prayer is that your love may grow more and more in knowledge and understanding,
10 Amane hamosea, dilia da logo ida: iwanedafa amoga masa: ne ilegemusa: dawa: mu. Amasea, Yesu Gelesu Ea bu misunu esoga, dilia dogo ledo hamedei agoane ba: mu, amola dunu huluane da dilima diliwaneya udidimu hamedei ba: mu.
so that you can work out what's really important. That way you can be genuine and blameless when Christ returns,
11 Amasea, Yesu Gelesu da hamobeba: le, dilia esalusu da hou ida: iwanedafa amoga nabai ba: mu. Amola amo houba: le, Gode da hadigi amola nodosu lamu.
filled with the fruits of living right that come through Jesus Christ and give glory and praise to God.
12 Se nabasu hou da nama doaga: beba: le, eno dunu bagohame ilia Gode Ea sia: nabi dagoi. Dilia amo dawa: mu da defea.
I want you to know, my brothers and sisters, that all I've experienced has worked out to move the good news forward!
13 Louma hina bagade ea diasu sosodo aligisu fi dunu amola eno dunu huluane, ilia na da Yesu Gelesu Ea hawa: hamobeba: le, se iasu diasu ganodini sali, amo dawa:
For everyone—including the whole praetorian guard—now knows that I'm in chains for Christ;
14 Amola Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu bagohame da na se iasu diasu ganodini sali ba: beba: le, Hina Gode Ea hou baligiliwane lalegagusa. Amalalu, ilia mae beda: iwane Gode Ea Sia: olelelala.
and because of my chains most of the Christians here have been encouraged to speak God's word boldly and fearlessly!
15 Mogili da sia: ga gegesu amola mudasu hanaiba: le, olelesa. Be mogili da hou ida: iwane dawa: le olelesa.
Yes, some speak out of jealousy and rivalry. However, there are those who speak from good motives.
16 Ilia da nama asigiba: le noga: le olelesa. Bai ilia dawa: , Gode da nama Ea Sia: ida: iwane gaga: musa: , amo hawa: hamosu nama ilegei dagoi.
They act out of love, because they know that I'm meant to be here to defend the good news.
17 Be eno, musa: adoi mudasu dunu da ogogolewane, ilisu hou fawane gaguia gadomusa: , Yesu Gelesu Ea hou olelesa. Na da se iasu diasu ganodini esalebeba: le, iliada nama se eno baligiliwane ima: ne dawa: lala.
Those others present Christ deceptively because of their selfish ambitions, trying to cause me problems in my imprisonment.
18 Be mae dawa: ma! Na da hahawane! Mogili da hahawane Yesu Ea hou olelesa. Mogili, ilisu hou fidima: ne ougili olelesa. Be dunu bagohame da Yesu Gelesu Ea hou nababeba: le, na da hame sia: mu. Amola na hahawane hou hame fisimu.
But so what? All I care about is that Christ is presented every which way, whether just pretending or whether from true convictions. That's what makes me happy—and I will go on being happy!
19 Dilia da sia: ne gadolalebeba: le amola Yesu Gelesu Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da fidilalebeba: le, na da se iasu diasu logo doasibi ba: mu. Na amo dawa: beba: le, mae yolele hahawane ba: mu.
Why? Because I'm convinced that through your prayers for me, and through the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, this will turn out to be my salvation.
20 Na da mae dafane, wali amola eso huluane, mae beda: iwane, hawa: hamomu bagadewane hanai gala. Na da bogoma: bela: ? Na da esaloma: bela: ? Mae dawa: ma! Dunu huluane da Yesu Gelesuma nodone dawa: ma: ne, na da hou huluanedafa noga: le hamomu hanai galebe.
For it's my strongest hope and expectation not to do anything of which I would be ashamed. Instead it's my bold hope, as always, that even now Christ will be greatly honored through me, whether I live or die.
21 Na esalusu bai da Yesu Gelesu fawane. Amaiba: le, Na bogosea, na da baligiliwane lamu.
As far as I'm concerned, living is for Christ, and dying brings gain.
22 Be na da: i da mae bogole esalea, ebeda, na da eno hawa: noga: iwane hamoma: bela: ? Amaiba: le, na da adi logoga ahoa: dula: ?
But if I'm to go on living here and this would be productive work, then I really don't know what's best to choose!
23 Na da logo aduna ba: sa! Na da adi logoga ahoa: dula: ? Logo afae da na bogole amola Yesu Gelesuma doaga: mu. Na da amo logoga masunu hanai galebe. Bai Yesuma gilisili esalumu da osobo bagadega esalumu bagadewane baligisa.
For I'm in a dilemma—I really want to leave and be with Christ, which would be far better,
24 Be na bogosea, dili bu fidimu hamedei ba: mu. Amola dilia na fidisu eno ba: mu da defea.
and yet to remain physically here is more important as far you're concerned.
25 Amaiba: le, na dawa: loba, na da wahadafa hame bogomu. Dilia dafawaneyale dawa: su hou amola hahawane hou da asigilamusa: , na da fidima: ne bu ouesalumu.
Since I'm absolutely sure of this, I know that I'll stay here, remaining with you all to help you as your trust and delight in God grows,
26 Amasea, na da dilima bu gousa: musa: masea, dilia da Yesu Gelesuma madelagiba: le amola na fidisu dawa: beba: le, dilia da Yesu Gelesuma baligiliwane nodone dawa: mu.
so that when I see you again your praise to Christ Jesus may be even greater because of me.
27 Amaiba: le, liligi bagade dawa: ma! Yesu Gelesu Ea Sia: ida: iwane olelesu liligi, amo defele dilia hou ba: mu da defea. Amane hamosea, na da dilima masea o hame masea, dila hou da gilisili, mae mogili, asigi dawa: su afadafa hamoiwane ba: mu. Na dilia hou gasa gala lelawane, gilisili Gode Ea sia: ida: iwane gala fidima: ne gegenanebe, na da nabimu.
Just be sure that the way you live your lives corresponds to the good news of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or not I can get to hear how you're doing—that you stand firm in full agreement with one another, spiritually united as you work together for the trusting faith of the good news.
28 Dilima ha lai dunu ilima mae beda: ma. Dilia dogo denesima amola gasawane hamoma. Amo hou ba: sea, dilima ha lai dunu da dili hasalasimu hamedei ba: mu. Bai Gode da dilima hasalasisu hou iaha.
Don't let your enemies scare you. By being brave you will demonstrate to them that they will be lost, but that God himself will save you.
29 Gode da dilima hahawaneba: le, dilia Yesu Gelesuma hawa: hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi. Be amo fawane hame. Be dilia hawa: hamosu eno da Ea hou fidimusa: , se nabalumu.
For you have been given the privilege not only of trusting in Jesus, but suffering for him as well.
30 Wali, na da Gode Ea Sia: Ida: iwane gaga: musa: , gegesea, dili amola gilisili gegenanumu dawa: Dilia da na musa: gegenanebe ba: i dagoi. Amola na wali mae yolesili gegenana, dilia da nabi.
You're experiencing the same struggle you saw me having—a struggle I still have, as you now know.
