Philippians 1

1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons:

Filipa yaaba. Mini Polo leni Timote, Jesu Kilisiti naacenba, n diani yipo li tili, yinba yaaba n tie bi nigagihanba Jesu Kilisiti nni ki ye Filipa dogu nni leni yi nitaanli yudanba leni yi todikaaba kuli.

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

Ti Baa U Tienu leni ti diedo Jesu Kilisiti n pa yi li hanbili leni mi yanduanma.

3 I thank my God every time I remember you.

N tuondi U Tienu min tiadi yipo ya yogunu kuli.

4 In every prayer for all of you, I always pray with joy,

Min jaandi yikuli po ya yogunu kuli, n jaandi leni li pamanli.

5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,

Kelima yin taa leni nni ki todi nni o laabaalihamo wangima po maama, ki cili yin den gbadi o ya daali ki pundi hali moala.

6 being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

N daani ki go bani cain ke yua n cili laa tuonhanli yi niinni baa tuuni li hali lin gbeni Jesu Kilisiti guacuama daali.

7 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart. For in my chains and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partners in grace with me.

Li pundi min ya tiadi yikuli po kelima n kubi yikuli n pali nni. Min ye kadi nni leni min maadi ki ga o laabaaliham

8 God is my witness how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.

o ki teni ke o se ki pa, yikuli taani leni nni ki baadi min baadi ya hanbili U Tienu kani. U Tienu tie npo seedi ke n bua yikuli leni Jesu Kilisiti ya buamoanma.

9 And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,

Min miadi U Tienu yipo yaala n jaandi nni tie ke yi buama n yaa yabidi ki pugidi leni mi bandima leni mi yafuomoanma,

10 so that you may be able to test and prove what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

ke yin bandi ki gagidi ki gandi yaala n hani ki cie. Lani n baa teni yin ya hani cain ki naa pia ban baa fidi ki tabi yi leni yaala Kilisiti guacuama daali.

11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Yeni yi baa ya tuuni mi teginma tuona yaa ñni Jesu Kilisiti kani lan tua ti kpiagidi leni ti pagidi U Tinu po.

12 Now I want you to know, brothers, that my circumstances have actually served to advance the gospel.

N kpiiba, n bua yin bandi line, yaala n den cua npo teni ke o laabaalihamo wangima suagi liiga.

13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.

Moamoani li doagidi yaa minteela n gu o bado diegu kuli leni nitoaba kuli po ke n lo li kadidieli nni kelima Kilisiti yaapo.

14 And most of the brothers, confident in the Lord by my chains, now dare more greatly to speak the word without fear.

N kado teni ke ti kpiiba boacianla dugi o Diedo po ki cie, ki go paagi bi pala ki wangi U Tienu maama kaa go jie.

15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.

Li tie moamoani ke bi siiga tianba wangi Kilisiti laabaalihamo kelima bi pia n po li nunponli ki bua ki cie nni. Ama bi tianba mo li wangi o leni li yantiahanle.

16 The latter do so in love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel.

Bine wangi o laabaalihamo kelima bi bua nni ki bani ke n ye ne kelima U Tienu gandi nni ke min maadi ki ga o laabaalihamo ki doagidi ke o tie moamoani.

17 The former, however, preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can add to the distress of my chains.

Bine mo wangi o ki bua ki cie nni, bi yatiana naa hani, bi tema ke bi ya tieni yeni li baa pugini n fala li kadidieli nni.

18 What then is the issue? Just this: that in every way, whether by false motives or true, Christ is preached. And in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice,

Likuli tie npo yenma. Baa lan tie maama kuli, bi ya wangi o leni mi tuonanma bi ban wangi o leni li yantiamoanli, bi wangi Kilisiti laabaalihamo. N mangi n pali lipo ki go baa mangidi li ki pugidi.

19 because I know that through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, my distress will turn out for my deliverance.

Kelima n bani ke likuli baa juodi ki tua n tindima yaapo kelima yin jaandi ki miadi npo maama leni Jesu Kilisiti Fuoma todima yaapo.

20 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have complete boldness so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

Nani min bua ki go sugini maama tie ke n kan la i fe liba kuli po. Ama nani lan den kpa tie maama, li go tie yene moala. N sugini ke Kilisiti baa ba ti kpiagidi n miali yema nni kuli, li ya tie ke n baa kpe leni n ya baa ye kuli.

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

Kelima mini yaapo Kilisiti tie n miali, mi kuuma mo tie npo ñuadi.

22 But if I go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. So what shall I choose? I do not know.

Ama, li yaa tie ke li hani min tuuni ya tuonli yaapo ke min yaa ye n gbannandi nni mii bani min baa gandi yaala.

23 I am torn between the two. I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better indeed.

Laa bonliedila miabi nni. N bua ki gedi ki ban yaa ye leni Kilisiti, lani n cie npo hali boncianla.

24 But it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.

Ama yi mo ya todima po, min ya ye ki fo cie.

25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,

N daani ki go bani ke n baa fo ki ye leni yikuli, ke yin fidi ki ya suagi liiga ki go pia li pamanli li dandanli nni.

26 so that through my coming to you again your exultation in Christ Jesus will resound on account of me.

Yeni, n guacuama yikani go baa teni yin baa yaa pamanli n yaba Jesu Kilisiti nni.

27 Nevertheless, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,

Lanwani bonyenla tugi li yuli, lani n tie yi tagi n yaa da leni Kilisiti ya laabaalihamo. N ya fidi ki cua yikani ki laa yi, leni n yaa fidi ki cua, min ya gba ke yi se bonhanla ki pia yantiayenli, ki moa o laabaalihamo n cuani ya dandanli ya muali.

28 without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a clear sign of their destruction but of your salvation, and it is from God.

Yin da cedi yi koaginkaaba n jieni yi baa waamu. Lani n tie bipo seedi ke bi baa bodi, ama li tie yinba yaapo seedi yi tindima yaapo. Laa bonla ñani U Tienu ya kani.

29 For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for Him,

Kelima U Tienu n tieni yipo yaa hanbili yeni, laa tie ke yi daani Kilisiti bebe ka, ama yin go ya laadi opo fala moko.

30 since you are encountering the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.

Yi moko taa leni nni ki moa yin den laa ke n moa ya muali ki go gbadi moala ke n baa moa.
