Jo-Filipi 2

1 Ka bedowa kuom Kristo nyalo kelonwa hoch, kata hera maduogo chuny, kata lalruok kuom Roho, kata ngʼwono kod miwafu,

If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

2 to kare beduru gi paro achiel, gihera achiel kod chuny achiel mondo umi chunya opongʼ gi mor.

make my joy full, by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;

3 Kik utim gimoro amora mondo upiem gi ji kata mondo unyisru ne ji, to beduru joma obolore, ka kinde duto ukwano joma moko kaka joma beyo moloyou.

doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

4 Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu kik par mana kuom gik makonye en owuon, to nyaka upar bende kuom gik makonyo jomoko bende.

each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.

5 Paro manie chunyu nyaka bed machal gi paro mane Kristo Yesu nigo.

Have this in your attitude, which was also in Christ Jesus,

6 Yesu ne kit Nyasaye nyaka aa chakruok, to ne ok okwano bedo marom gi Nyasaye ka gima nyaka lar,

who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,

7 to notimore ka gima nono kodoko misumba, mi nokawo kido machal gi mar dhano.

but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.

8 Kendo kane en gi kit dhano kamano, to nobolore, ka owinjo Nyasaye nyaka kar tho, kata mana tho mar msalaba!

And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross.

9 Emomiyo Nyasaye bende notingʼe malo moloyo, kendo nomiye nying moloyo nyinge duto,

Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name;

10 mondo koluong nying Yesu to ji duto nogo chong-gi piny, e polo kendo e piny, kendo e bwo piny,

that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,

11 kendo ji duto nohul ni Yesu Kristo en Ruoth, mondo Nyasaye Wuoro oyud duongʼ.

and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

12 Kuom mano, osiepena mageno, mana kaka usebedo kuwinjo wachna kinde duto, ok mana ka antie kodu, to koro moloyo ka aonge, dhiuru nyime ka urito warruoku mondo ochop kare, kupongʼ gi luoro kod bolruok,

So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with awe and reverence.

13 nikech Nyasaye owuon ema tiyo e chunyu mondo omi umanye kendo utim dwarone maber.

For it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.

14 Gimoro amora mutimo, to timuru ma ok ungʼur kata mino wach,

Do everything without complaining or arguing,

15 eka ubed jomaler kendo maonge wach gi ngʼato. Mano nomi ubed nyithind Nyasaye ma wach moro amora marach ok ogajo kudak e kind tiengʼ mobamni kendo matimo richo. Ler maru nyaka rieny ka sulwe manie kor polo e kind tiengʼni,

that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

16 kuwachonegi wach Ngima, mondo ka chiengʼ ma Kristo obiroe, to abed mamor ni kara ne ok aringo kata tiyo matek e dieru kayiem nono.

holding up the word of life; that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain nor labor in vain.

17 Kata obedo ni remba iolo oko kaka remb chiayo mitimogo misango kuom chiwruok kod tich maru kuom yie, to pod amor amora kendo ail kaachiel kodu.

Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.

18 Omiyo un bende beduru abeda mamor mana kaka an bende amor.

In the same way, you also rejoice, and rejoice with me.

19 An gi geno kuom Ruoth Yesu mar oro Timotheo iru machiegni, mondo omi chunya oduogi ka ayudo wach moa kuomu.

But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.

20 Aonge gi ngʼato machielo machal kode, ma oikore konyou gi chunye duto e chandruok moro amora ma un-go.

For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.

21 Nikech ji duto dwaro mana gik makonyogi giwegi, to ok mag Yesu Kristo.

For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.

22 Un uwegi to ungʼeyo kaka Timotheo osenyiso ber mare malongʼo, nikech wasetiyo kode kaachiel mana kaka wuowi gi wuon mare, ka wachiwore ne tich mar Injili.

But you know the proof of him, that, as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.

23 Kuom mano ageno mar ore iru mapiyo bangʼ kasengʼeyo gima biro timorena ka.

Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.

24 Kata mana an awuon an-gi adiera kuom Ruoth ni abiro biro iru machiegni.

But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.

25 To aneno ni owinjore mondo akwong aor owadwa Epafrodito mondo oduog oneu. En jatich Kristo wadwa ma wakedogo lweny mar Injili, kendo en jaoteu mane uoro mondo okonya e rem mane an-go.

But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need;

26 Osegombo mondo oneu ahinya, kendo chunye chandore nikech nuwinjo ni notuo ahinya.

since he longed for you all, and was very troubled, because you had heard that he was sick.

27 Chutho notuo marach, mi odwa otho. To Nyasaye nokeche, kendo kuom kech mane okechego, an bende nokecha, mondo kik abed gi kuyo manyadiriyo.

For indeed he was sick, nearly to death, but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.

28 Kuom mano, chunya medo jiwa mondo aore, mondo ka unene kendo kongima, to ubed mamor, mondo an bende parruok ma an-go odog chien.

I have sent him all the more eagerly, therefore, so that when you see him again you may rejoice, and that I may be less anxious.

29 Kobiro, to rwakeuru gi mor maduongʼ kaka owadu kuom Ruoth, kendo neuru ni umiyo joma chalo kode kamano duongʼ,

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honor,

30 nikech nochiwo ngimane mi poth otho nikech tich Kristo, koketo ngimane e chandruok mondo okonya gi kony ma un uwegi ne ok unyal konyago.

because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.
