Philippians 2

1 Therefore if you have any encouragement in Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any affection and compassion,

Sen roidong ah Kristo damdi ang thoih rongtangtang ang thuk halan, nyia heh minchan ih sen ah kooncha halan. Sen Esa Chiiala damdi roomtong lan, nyia sen jiinni minchan nyi tenthet ah esiit esiit suh eje.

2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being united in spirit and purpose.

Sen suh ngah ih baat rumhala, sen loong ah tenthun esiit, mongnook esiit, thung atak nyia chiiala lam nah esiit ang anno ngah ah roonthuk he.

3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty pride, but in humility consider others more important than yourselves.

Tumjih uh nyamnyook tenthun nawa ih nak re an adoleh lalangka lam ih nak ngaampo an, erah nang ih bah esiit esiit damdoh toongtang lam ih tong an, saarookwih senteewah nang ih wahoh ah ese ih samthun an.

4 Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Nyia wahoh ih tumjih thunha erah roong samthun suh thun an sen teeteewah tenthun nah laklak lah angthang ih ah.

5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus:

Senthung sentak ah Jisu Kristo thung atak angta likhiik angtheng:

6 Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,

Heh di saarookwih Rangte dang ajang ah jeeta, enoothong heh ih mamah ih bah uh Rangte thanthan ih hoon suh tathuntakta.

7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in human likeness.

Erah nang ih, heh teeteewah thung nawa ih heh di tumjih jeeta loong ah thiinhaat ano, laksuh angjih dang ajang ah kapta. Heh ah mina likhiik ih dong hoonta nyia mina jih ajaat likhiik ih dong taha.

8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to death— even death on a cross.

Heh ah toongtang angta erah dam ih Rangte jeng chaatchaat lam ih heh roidong ah thoonta— bangphak ni laan tek ruh ah.

9 Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name above all names,

Erah thoih Rangte ih heh ah echoong thoon rangkothung ni saatsiit wanta eno heh men ah o men nang ih uh elongthoon et men kota.

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

Erah tungthoih, Jisu men ah soomtu suh jaatrep rangmong nawa, hatoh nawa, nyia mongrep hakhu nawa loong ah neng lakuh doh tong rum ah,

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

eno loongtang ih saasa lam ih Jisu Kristo ah seng Teesu ih tumbaat rum ah, Rangte hewah men ah raksiit suh ah.

12 Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now even more in my absence, continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.

Erah thoih, nga joonte loong, ngah sen damdi ang tokdi saarookwih sen ah nga jeng chaatchaat kah etan, eno amadi ngah haloot ni anglang tok adoh tang ehan ih nga jeng ah thaangchaat an, erah sen raangtaan suh maaklong doh chap ah. Sen khopiiroidong ah chosuh bah emocho damdoh pakna ruh ih kah an,

13 For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.

tumeah Rangte ih sen loong ah heh mootkaat nah jen reethuk suh nyia heh jeng chaatchaat jen ang thuk suh saarookwih sen roidong ni ban moruh ehala.

14 Do everything without complaining or arguing,

Jaatrep ah changrook waangti nyia jengdaan muh ih re an,

15 so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine as lights in the world

arah mongrep adi bah ethih reeraang pakna nyia rangdah mina loong meela, eno sen ah erah mina loong damdoh toongtang nyia saachamcham ih tongsong an Rangte suh asah mi jen angsuh ah. Sen loong ah neng dung nah rangkhothung echoong ni reksih phaakla likhiik jaatjaat ih phaak theng,

16 as you hold forth the word of life, in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.

tumeah sen ih neng suh khothing roidong tiit ah baat han. Sen loong ah emamah ih re anbah Kristo Rangwuung sa doh ngah sen suh rapne ih khuungpook roonsoonjih ang ah, tumeah erah sa doh bah ngah reeraang pakna tang loong ah thaangmuh ni taboh angka ih jat ang.

17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.

Sen tuungmaang nyia sen mootkaat ah Rangte suh khojoop siik hoon arah likhiik. Eno nga sih ah erah khojoop siik hoon adoh jan adoh botseh ngah sen suh tenroon ang ang.

18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

Emamah, sen uh tenroon angjih eno nga damdoh tenroon ih roong tongtha han.

19 Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I learn how you are doing.

Teesu thungpun abah, ngah ih sen jiinnah Timothi ah elaang ih daapkaat suh ejen thun et ang, eno ba sen ruurang ah chaat angno nga tenthun ah rongkopkop ang ah.

20 I have nobody else like him who will genuinely care for your needs.

Nga tenthun jun ih roong samthunte nyia sen loong amiimi ih koonchaate warah heh luulu ju angkah.

21 For all the others look after their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.

Mirep ih Jisu ah lasamthun thang ih, neng di marah seela erah ba samthun rumha.

22 But you know Timothy’s proven worth, that as a child with his father he has served with me to advance the gospel.

Sen ih jat ehan Timothi heteewah ah tumjaat mina ah ih noisok hali rah ah, hewah damdi heh sah roong mola likhiik ih, heh ah nga damdam ruurangese tiit roong tumbaat taha.

23 So I hope to send him as soon as I see what happens with me.

Erah thoih, ngah tumjih angte erah jat ang no ba Timothi ah sen jiinnah elaang ih daapkaat suh ban samthun hang.

24 And I trust in the Lord that I myself will come soon.

Erah dam ih ngah ih Teesu suh kamkam ih samthun hang, nga teewah ah elaang ih sen jiinnah ejen chomoi ih raahang.

25 But I thought it necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my needs.

Ngah ih thun etang Epaphroditus, nga damdi Rangte tiit roong tumbaatte wah, toongtang sipaahi tiitbaatte pangte nyia sen ih ngah chosok suh sen kaamwah ih daapjah tahan ah sen jiinnah ngaak daapjih jaatjaat eah.

26 For he has been longing for all of you and is distressed because you heard he was ill.

Heh ih sen chosok suh rapne ih mongsaam la nyia thungjoongla, tumeah sen ih heh ah esat ela ih japchaat etan.

27 He was sick indeed, nearly unto death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but also on me, to spare me sorrow upon sorrow.

Elang eah heh ah rapne ih satta, etek nep taat eta, enoothong Rangte ih tenthet ano ngaak deesiitta, heh laklak lah angthang ih ngah nep tenthet tahang, sootsaam khodoh sootsaam phoboot ang ah eah.

28 Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you may rejoice, and I may be less anxious.

Erah thoih sen jiinnah daapkaat suh ngah ih ehan ih samthun hang, eno ba sen ih heh ah japtup ano ehan ih roon an, eno nga sootsaam anep mat eah.

29 Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him,

Eno bah, sen ih heh ah tenroon lam ih Teesu mendoh sen phono likhiik ih ban noppoon an. Eno heh soongraang han likhiik mih uh emamah ih soongraang an,

30 because he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to make up for your deficit of service to me.

tumeah heh ih heh roidong ah Kristo tiit thoi etek nep taat ih arah ih kota, ngah chosok suh nep marah sen ih botseh lajen chosok tahe rah suh ah.
