Philippians 1

1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus that are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

Pɔli yeni Timote Jesu Kiristo tuonsɔnba dangi ya tilisɔnkaali ne Filipi dogu niŋanba yaaba n ŋua Kiristo yeni Kiristo nitaanli liiga yaaba yeni a tuonjaana liiga yaaba po;

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

yin ya ye yeni Ti Báa yeni ti Diedo Jesu kiristo ŋalbalga yen bi yanduanma.

3 I thank my God upon all my remembrance of you,

N ya tiadi i po ya yognu kuli, n yi jaandi ki tieni n Tienu balga.

4 always in every supplication of mine on behalf of you all making my supplication with joy,

N ki sundi min jaandi ya yognu kuli, ikuli po, ke min jaandi yeni li pamanli.

5 for your fellowship in furtherance of the gospel from the first day until now;

Kelima yin baa ya laabaaliŋamo biinu hali li daacincinli, ki taa ki cua yeni mɔla ne.

6 being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ:

N pia li dandanli ke yua n cili li laabaalŋamo i niinni ba suagi ku dudili hali Jesu Kiristo daali.

7 even as it is right for me to be thus minded on behalf of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers with me of grace.

Li tie mɔni ke n pia pali nni buama ikuli po, kelima ikuli ye n pali nni. Ikuli den tie n jakɔdlieba, ki baa ŋalbalga, ban den luoni nni li kpaadidieli nni, n buudi jiama yognu yeni min den saa i mɔni o laabaalŋamo po ya yogu.

8 For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.

Kelima, U Tienu tie n kasiedi ke n pia mi buacianma yeni min ya ye yeni ikuli yeni Kiristo niñinpadi.

9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment;

Min jaandi ki miadi yaali ikuli po tie, ke i buama ń ya yabdi ki pugdi mi banma nni yeni li yantiaŋanli nni.

10 so that ye may approve the things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and void of offence unto the day of Christ;

Ke yin fidi ki gagdi yaali yaali n ŋani, ki dagdi, ki ya tie ya niteginkaaba n ki pia taglibakuli Kirito guanma daali.

11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Ke yin ya gbie yeni mi teginma luanli yaali n ñani Jesu Kiristo kani, U Tienu kpiagdi yeni o teginma po.

12 Now I would have you know, brethren, that the things [which happened] unto me have fallen out rather unto the progress of the gospel;

N kpiiba, n bua yin ya bani ke min la ya fala kuli ki pani nni ke min yadi ki waani o laabaalŋamo.

13 so that my bonds became manifest in Christ throughout the whole prætorian guard, and to all the rest;

Mɔlane, laa ji duagi Roma sejenba yaaba n guu li kpaaddieli yeni u dogu nni nitianba kuli po, ke bi luoni nni li kpaadidili nni kelima n yadi ki wangi ya laabaalŋamo n nua Kirito po i.

14 and that most of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.

Yaali n pugdi, ti dudugdi danba boncianli yadi ki wangi o laabaalŋamo Kiristo po yeni li papaali yeni ania, kaa ji jie kelima bi dudugdi U Tienu po ji cie, Bi maadi Jesu maama kelima bi la nni ke n yadi ki wangi o laabaalŋamo li kpaadidieli nni.

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Li tie mɔni ke bi niba ye, ki wangi o laabaalŋamo li nunpoli yeni ki nanga po. Ama nitianba mɔ li tuagi u sanŋamu i ki yadi ki wangi.

16 the one [do it] of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel;

nitianba tuuni kelima bi bua Kiristo, ki tie ania, ke ban yadi ki waani yaaba n ki bani Kiristo o laabaalŋamo.

17 but the other proclaim Christ of faction, not sincerely, thinking to raise up affliction for me in my bonds.

Ama yaaba n tuuni Jesu po, ki lingi bi yuceli buama ki tuagi u sanŋamu, bi lingi ke ban ŋmadi n yama li kpaadidieli nni i.

18 What then? only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and therein I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Lani ki pia mayuli, Bi niba yadi ki wangi o laabaalŋamo Kiristo po, lan tie mɔni ii, tofaama, n pali mani kelima o laabaalŋamo nan li yadi ki suagdi i. Yende, n pali baa li mangdi ki pugdi i.

19 For I know that this shall turn out to my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

N pali mani kelima n bani ke U Tienu ba faabi nni, ki ñani nni li kpaadidieli nni. O ba tieni la kelima n bani ke i jaandi n po ke Kiristo Foŋanma todli mɔ ye yeni nni.

20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing shall I be put to shame, but [that] with all boldness, as always, [so] now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.

N pali paa, ke n bani ke n kan gbali n tuonli, mɔlane, n ji pia li papaali nani min den li pia li yognuba yeni.

21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Mini ya po n yema tie ke min kpiagi Kiristo yua n tie n miali i, mi kuuma tie mini ya po ñuadi i.

22 But if to live in the flesh, —[if] this shall bring fruit from my work, then what I shall choose I know not.

N ya baa pia miali tinga nni ne, li tie ke min ya tuuni Kiristo po i. N ji ki cili ki bani min ba lugdi yaali.

23 But I am in a strait betwixt the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ; for it is very far better:

N buama yabi ke min yaadi ki ban ya ye yeni Kiristo, lani n pia mayuli n po.

24 yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

Ama yinba ya po, li bi baa ŋani ke min min ya ye i.

25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, yea, and abide with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith;

Yaali n pugdi, n bani ke n baa ye yeni yi, ki todi yi, i banma yeni i dudugdi Kiristo nni ń suagi ki cie.

26 that your glorying may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again.

Lanwani ii, n ya guani i kani, Kiristo ŋalbalgo po, i pala ba mangi.

27 Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you or be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel;

Yin ya ŋua ya yema n dagdi yeni Kiristo laabaalŋamo. Lanwani ii, li ya tie ke n fidi ki guani i kani bii min ki fidi ki guani, min ya ye mi yeŋanma nni, ke i laabaalo wangi ke i pia yantiayenli, ki kubi ti dudugdi ke li paa o laabaalŋamo po.

28 and in nothing affrighted by the adversaries: which is for them an evident token of perdition, but of your salvation, and that from God;

Da cedi mani i yibalinba ń jieni yi. I papaali ba kadi ki waani ke U Tienu ba biani ba, ki nan faabi yinba.

29 because to you it hath been granted in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer in his behalf:

Kelima U Tienu ŋalbalgo po, o puni u sanu ke yin la fala yeni Kiristo ki go waani i ddugdi o po,

30 having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

I ba kɔni ki paadi yaaba n pangi o laabaalŋamo tuonli. ki mua ti jadi nani yin la ke n tuuni maama, ki go li bii ki kubi ti jakɔndii.
