Philipi 1
1 Jesuh Khrih kah sal rhoi Paul neh Timothy loh Philipi ah aka om hiphoelkung rhoek, tueihyoeih rhoek neh Jesuh Khrih ah hlangcim rhoek boeih taengah kan yaak sak.
Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, together with the bishops and deacons:
2 A pa Pathen neh Boeipa Jesuh Khrih taengkah lungvatnah neh ngaimongnah tah nangmih taengah om saeh.
Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Nangmih kah poekkoepnah cungkuem dongah ka Pathen te ka uem.
I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,
4 Kai kah rhenbihnah takuem ah nangmih rhoek boeih ham omngaihnah neh rhenbihnah ka saii taitu he khaw,
always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy
5 A tongcuek khohnin lamkah tahae duela olthangthen dongah nangmih kah bulbonah dongah ni.
on account of your fellowship in the cause of the gospel from the first day until now;
6 He he boeih ka ngaitang ngawn ta. Te dongah nangmih khuiah bibi then aka tong long tah Jesuh Khrih kah khohnin duela a khah ni ta.
being confident of this very thing, that he who began in you a good work, will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus;
7 Nangmih thinko khuiah ka om dongah nangmih boeih yueng la poek ham he kai ham tah a dueng la om ngawn. Kai kah thongtlak dongah khaw, olthungnah dongah khaw olthangthen kah caksaknah dongah khaw lungvatnah te kai aka bawn puei laboeih na om uh.
even as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, all of you being sharers of the grace bestowed on me.
8 Kai kah laipai la Pathen om ta. Jesuh Khrih kah kotak dongah nangmih rhoek boeih te bahoeng kan ngaidam.
For God is my witness how much I long for you all in the tender affection of Christ Jesus.
9 He tla ka thangthui daengah ni nangmih kah lungnah loh mingnah neh hmuhmingnah cungkuem dongah taoe taoe a pungtai pueng eh.
And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all discernment;
10 Te dongah a tanglue te na soepsoei uh daengah ni Khrih kah khohnin ah tah a cuemhmuet neh a cilrhik la na om uh eh.
so that ye may approve the things that are most excellent, in order that ye may be pure and without offence against the day of Christ,
11 Pathen kah thangpomnah neh koehnah ham Jesuh Khrih lamkah duengnah thaihtak tah soep coeng.
being filled with the fruit of righteousness which is through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
12 Manuca rhoek, kai taengah taoe aka thoeng olthangthen kah rhoengcawtnah te nangmih ming sak ham ka ngaih coeng.
But I wish you to know, brethren, that things with me have resulted in the furtherance of the gospel;
13 Te dongah Khrih ham kai kah thongtlak te khoboeiyung boeih neh a tloe boeih ah a pha tih mingpha coeng.
so that my bonds have become known in connection with Christ in the whole camp of the imperial guards, and to all the rest;
14 Te phoeiah boeipa ah manuca a yet loh kai kah thongtlak te a ngaitang uh. Te dongah sayalh la olka thui ham taoe a ngaingaih uh.
and that the great part of the brethren, made confident in the Lord by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
15 Hlangvang loh uethnetnah, tohhaemnah neh om uh ngawn dae hlangvang ngawn tah Khrih kawng te kolonah la a hoe uh.
Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from good will.
16 Cungvang ah lungnah lamlong tah olthangthen kah olthungnah ham n'tuek tila a ming uh.
but they who are of a factious spirit preach Christ with no pure intent, thinking to stir up affliction to my bonds.
17 Tedae koevoeinah neh Khrih olthang aka doek rhoek tah cuemcaih pawh. Kai kah thongtlak vaengkah phacip phabaem te soehsal ham ni a cai uh.
They who are of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel;
18 Te phoeikah tah mebang nim? Mueituengnah mailai nen khaw oltak nen khaw a longim boeih neh Khrih kawng doek mai cakhaw hekah ham he ka omngaih tih koep ka omngaih pueng ni.
What then? Notwithstanding, in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is preached; and therein do I rejoice, yea, and shall rejoice.
19 He tah nangmih kah rhenbihnah neh Jesuh Khrih Mueihla kah bomnah lamloh kai ham khangnah la poeh ni tila ka ming.
For I know that this will turn out to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 Ka rhingoelnah neh ngaiuepnah vanbangla yah ka pok mahpawh. Tedae sayalhnah cungkuem neh hingnah lamlong khaw, dueknah lamlong khaw a yoeyah la ka pum dongah Khrih a oep van pawn ni.
according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be put to shame, but that with all boldness, as always, so also now, Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
21 Kai ham tah ka hing khaw Khrih tih ka duek te khaw ka hoeikhangnah ni.
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
22 Tedae pumsa ah hing ham akhaw te tah kai ham bibi kah a thaih la om tih ka tuek ham te ka ming pawh.
But if to live in the flesh, if this is to me the fruit of my labor, then what I should choose, I cannot say;
23 Te dongah voeivang lamloh n'nan. Ka bal ham neh Khrih taengah om ham te hoehhamnah ka khueh te muep then ngai.
but I am held in a strait by the two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; for it is far better;
24 Tedae pumsa ah om he nangmih ham tangkik ni.
but to abide in the flesh is more needful for your sake.
25 Te dongah ka pangtung he ka ming daengah ni ka rhaehrhong vetih nangmih boeih te namamih kah rhoengcawtnah neh tangnah dongkah omngaihnah dongah ka nguel eh.
And being persuaded of this, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your advancement and joy in your faith,
26 Te daengah ni nangmih kah thangpomnah loh kai dongkah neh kai lamloh nangmih taengah mikhmuh la Khrih Jesuh dongah a pungtai eh.
that your glorying in me, in the cause of Christ Jesus, may be more abundant by my coming to you again.
27 Khrih olthangthen kah a tingtawk la dawk hing uh. Te daengah ni ka pawk tih nangmih kan hmuh vaengah khaw, lakhla vaengah khaw, nangmih kawng te ka yaak eh. Mueihla pakhat dongah na pai uh tih, olthangthen kah tangnah dongah pakhat la hinglu na cut uh te ta.
Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you, or remain absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving together for the faith of the gospel,
28 Te phoeiah boekoek rhoek kongah a hong nen khaw hlawt let uh boeh. Te tah amih ham pocinah dongah mingphanah ni. Tedae nangmih ham tah khangnah la om. He tah Pathen taeng lamkah ni.
and in nothing terrified by your adversaries; which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation; and that from God;
29 Nangmih taengah Khrih yueng la m'paek coeng. Amah dongah aka tangnah ham bueng pawt tih amah yueng la aka patang taengah khaw a paek.
for to you it was given in behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but in his behalf to suffer also;
30 Kai dongah thingthuelnah aka khueh rhoek te amah la na hmuh uh tih ka khuikah te na yaak uh coeng.
as ye have the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear of in me.
