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,
Makaliru genu kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu gawatenda mgangamali na mafiliru gakuwi gawatula moyu. Mwenga muwera na umu kwa kuwera pamuhera na Rohu Mnanagala na muweri na lusungu na mulilekiziyani maweni.
2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being united in spirit and purpose.
Su nuwaluwani mwenga kuwera mmaliliri nemeleru ya neni kwa kuwera na liholu limu na kwa kuwera na ufiru umu na moyu gumu na nfiru yimu.
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty pride, but in humility consider others more important than yourselves.
Namtenda shoseri kwa moyu gwa ufyangu ama kwa kulitumba hera, kumbiti muweri na unanagala maweni kwa maweni na kila yumu kamloli muyaguwi kaherepa kuliku mweni.
4 Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Kila yumu gwenu nakasakula mota yakuwi mweni hera kumbiti kasakuli mota ya muyaguwi.
5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus:
Muweri na liholu ali ntambu yakawera nalu Kristu Yesu
6 Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
mweni kwa ntambu yakuwi kaweriti Mlungu, kumbiti kaliholiti ndiri kuwera sawa na Mlungu ndo shintu sha kulemetera kwa makakala.
7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in human likeness.
Su kwa kufira mweni kalitenditi kuwera shintu ndiri, kawera ntambu ya mmanda, kiwukiti muntu na kawoneka kwa ntambu ya wantu.
8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to death— even death on a cross.
Yomberi kananagaliti mweni na kajimiriti mpaka kuhowa, kuhowa kweni kahowiti palupingika.
9 Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name above all names,
Toziya ayi, Mlungu kamkwisiti pahala pampindi nentu na kamupananiti litawu lyaliwera pambindi pa matawu goseri,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
su kwa ligoya lya litawu lya Yesu kila linung'unu halisuntami na vintu vyoseri vya kumpindi kwa Mlungu na pasipanu pa pasipanu,
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
na kila lulimi halilongi kuwera Yesu Kristu ndo Mtuwa, kwa ukwisa wa Mlungu yakawera Tati gwetu.
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.
Walongu wangu, ntambu yamunjimiriti shipindi shoseri neni paweriti na mwenga, ata vinu pawera patali na mwenga mwendereyi kunjimira. Kwa kutila na kulendemera mlanguziyi kwa vitendu, toziya ya ulopoziya wenu,
13 For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.
toziya Mlungu ndo yakatenda lihengu mngati mwenu shipindi shoseri na kuwapanana uwezu wa kufira na kuvitenda vitwatira vyavigenderana na mpangu gwakuwi mweni.
14 Do everything without complaining or arguing,
Mtendi kila shintu pota na kuhinginika ama likakatala,
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
su muwezi kuwera waherepa na yawahera lawama, wana wa Mlungu yawahera vidoda mupasipanu. Hamlangali pakati pawu gambira ntondu pazilangala kulyera,
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.
pamushikola hweri shisoweru sha ukomu. Handa pamtenda hangu, neni hanweri na toziya ya kulitumbira mulishaka Kristu pakawuya, tembera halilanguziyi kuwera kalikamaziya na lihengu lyangu lyagamiliti ndiri hera.
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.
Ata neni pandaviwa gambira shijungu sha kulanda mutambiku na utendera wa njimiru yenu, neni nsekelera nentu na nemelera pamuhera na mwawoseri mwenga.
18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.
Kwa ntambu iraayi, mwenga vilaa mfiruwa kunemelera pamuhera naneni.
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.
Kwa litawu lya Mtuwa Yesu ntumbira handa numtuma Timotewu kwa mwenga ulaa vinu, su nwezi kuwera na moyu pampikanira visoweru vya mwenga.
20 I have nobody else like him who will genuinely care for your needs.
Nahera muntu gwingi gambira yomberi yakawatendera mwenga kwa moyu.
21 For all the others look after their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.
Wamonga woseri wankuvitenda ndiri vitwatira vya Yesu Kristu, kumbiti wankuvitenda vitwatira vyawu weni.
22 But you know Timothy’s proven worth, that as a child with his father he has served with me to advance the gospel.
Maweni mwenga muvimana ntambu Timotewu kawera na unakaka, neni na yomberi gambira mwana na tati gwakuwi, tutenda pamuhera lihengu lya Shisoweru Shiwagira.
23 So I hope to send him as soon as I see what happens with me.
Su ntumbira hanumtumi kwa mwenga mala panuvimana ntambu vitwatira paving'endera.
24 And I trust in the Lord that I myself will come soon.
Na nankumtumbira Mtuwa handa neni vilaa hanizi ulaa vinu.
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.
Mwona numtumi kwa mwenga mlongu gwetu Epafiraditu, ayu mtenda lihengu muyangu na mungondu viraa ndo mjumbi gwenu yakantangiti mumafiliru gangu.
26 For he has been longing for all of you and is distressed because you heard he was ill.
Kanayu nfiru ngulu ya kuwalolani mwenga mwoseri na kahinginika nentu, mwenga mpata visoweru hangu kaweriti mlweri.
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.
Yina, kaweriti mlweri pakwegera na kuhowa. Kumbiti, Mlungu kamwoneriti lusungu na gweka yakuwi ndiri, ira na neni vilaa su mbananwi ndiri utama nentu.
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.
Su nfira nentu kumtuma kwa mwenga, su pamwona mpati kunemelera kayi na hinginika yangu iwuki.
29 Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him,
Mumuwanki, su kwa nemeru yoseri gambira mlongu Mumtuwa. Mfiruwa kuwalanguziya wantu wawera gambira mweni.
30 because he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to make up for your deficit of service to me.
Toziya yomberi kaweriti pakwegera na kuhowa toziya ya lihengu lya Kristu na kaponeka mmakaliru gakuwi su kawezi kunupa neni utanga ulii mwenga muweza ndiri kuujega maweni mwenga.
