Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you.
Sungwaji hwa Gosi. Sinzilola intamyo hubhasimbile habhili amazwi gegala amazwi iga gabhabhapele.
2 Watch out for those dogs, those workers of evil, those mutilators of the flesh!
Muyogopaje ni mbwa. Muyogopaje na bhabhomba imbombo abhabhibhi. Muyogopaje na bhebhahuyitema amabhihi gabho.
3 For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—
Atwa tili tohara. atu tihumputa Ungulubhi hulwabhushilo lwa Yesu Kilisti. Yesetuli nu dandamazu mumbili.
4 though I myself could have such confidence. If anyone else thinks he has grounds for confidence in the flesh, I have more:
Nkushele hwali nu muntu uwahunsubhile umbili uguani handi imbombile isho haani.
5 circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin; a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee;
Lelo natahililwe isihu ilya nane napapilwe mshirokho. ishabhaizilaeli newishirokholo ishaBenjamini ne mweBulania uwa Bhaebrania. katika huzimalizye indajazyo izyaMusa nali Falisayo.
6 as to zeal, persecuting the church; as to righteousness in the law, faultless.
Hu nguvu zyani nalyimvizye Ikanisa. Ishibhanza aje tulitishe ilyoliyi sheria senahali ni lawama husheria.
7 But whatever was gain to me I count as loss for the sake of Christ.
Lelo katika amambo ganti gingalolile aje minza huline ni nahagabhazya aje takataka pipo nahamminye U Kristi.
8 More than that, I count all things as loss compared to the surpassing excellence of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ
Hu lyoli ihungabhazya amambo gonti aje hasara afumilane nu winza uwalumanye u Yesu Kristi Ugosi wani. Kwaajili yakwe indeshile amambo gonti ingabhazya ndeshe itakataka ili imwaje U Kristi
9 and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God on the basis of faith.
iloleshe muhati yakwe sindini lyoli iyani ninini. Afume musheria ila indinayo ilyoli yifumilana nulwitiho lwa Kristi lwelufuma hwa Ngulubhi, umwene msingi ugwa mlwitaho.
10 I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to Him in His death,
Ishi ihwanza humanye umwimi ni nguvu iyizyusye wakwe nu ushirika wi mayimba gakwe. Ihanza agalulanywe nu Kilisti hu shifwani shimfwa yakwe,
11 and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
hwashi imbe nusubhilizyo muzyusyo wa bhafwe.
12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Selyoli aje ingapiite amambo iga au huje indi nugolosu hwigo, ila injitahidi apate shila sheshipatihana hwa Yesu Kristi.
13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
Bhaholo bhani simanya aje impite tiyali amabo iga. Ila ibhomba ijambo lyeka ihwiwa mwisinda ihwenyezya mwilongolela.
14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus.
Injitahidi afishile amalengo na makusudi ili impate ingiga ulukwizyo lwa Ngulubhi mwa Yesu Kristi.
15 All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about some issue, God will reveal this to you as well.
Twenti twetikuliye ulokole tihwanziwa ahwanze ishi nkeshele umo abhasibhe hunamna tofauti ahusu ijambo lyolyonti ilya Ngulubhi nantele abhalyigule hulimwe.
16 Nevertheless, we must live up to what we have already attained.
Hata huyo umuda nkewafiha tibhale shinisho.
17 Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who walk according to the pattern we set for you.
Bhaholo bhwa mumfwate ani mubhenye sana bhala bhebhajenda hudadavu webhuli ndeshe ati.
18 For as I have often told you before, and now say again even with tears: Many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
Bhinji bhebhakhala bhebhala mala nyinji imbabhuzya na ishi imbabhuzya humansozi - bhinji bhakhala ndeshe abhalugu abhikhobhehanyo isha Yesu Kilisti.
19 Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their shame. Their minds are set on earthly things.
Humpelela hwabho nanjisu. Pipo Ungulubhi wabho vyanda, ni shiburi shabho nsoni zyabho. Bhasibhilila amambo agamusi.
20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,
Pe ukhalo witu bhuli humwanya hwe tuhunsubhila ummulokozi witu uYesu Kilisti.
21 who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body.
Abhagalulanye amabili gitu amabhinu ndeshe amabili gakwe utuntumu; hwunguvu zizila huvizibiti ivintu vyonti.
