Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy, a brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow laborer,
Paul lokv, Jisu Kristo lvgabv pachipatwk doonv, okv ngonugv achiboru Timoti lokv— Ngonugv ajin okv ribamdakbam nam ajin Pilemon,
2 and to Apphia, most beloved sister, and to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the church which is in your house.
okv nonugv naam lo gvrja ribusila kaarwksinam vdw, okv ngonugv anyibormv Appia, okv ngonu ribamnam ajin sipai Archippu:
3 Grace and peace to you, from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ngonugv Pwknvyarnv Abu okv Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv anyuaya okv sarsopoyo ngv nonu gvlo jilwk yilaka.
4 I give thanks to my God, always keeping remembrance of you in my prayers,
Achiboru Pilemon, ngo aludwkibv, noogv amin am laala okv ngoogv Pwknvyarnv gvlo umbonyikv vla kumlwk jidunv.
5 (for I am hearing of your charity and faith, which you have in the Lord Jesus and with all the saints)
Vkvlgabv nonu vdwgv Pwknvyarnv gv nyi mvnwng nga pakjinam lvgabv okv Jisu lo nonugv mvngjwngnam am ngo tvvpa doodunv.
6 so that the participation of your faith may become evident by the recognition of every good work which is in you in Christ Jesus.
Ngonugv kristo gvlo turnam am akin dula kumbamjobam dubv boktalwknam sum mvngjwngnv gobv ridula arwngrungbv tvvpikaapi lakdu bv ngo kumnam si kumdunv.
7 For I have found great joy and consolation in your charity, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.
Noogv paknamv, ayanam achiboru, ngo gvlo kairungnv himpu am okv mingtvmirunam am achialvbv laalwk jidu! no Pwknvyarnv gv nyi mvnwng gv haapok ka habiatata motoku.
8 Because of this, I have enough confidence in Christ Jesus to command you concerning certain things,
Vkvlvkwngbv ngo chvrv rungdubv, kristo lo noogv achiboru bv rinam lokv, ogu risvdw ngo nam orto jila dunv.
9 but I beg you instead, for the sake of charity, since you are so much like Paul: an old man and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
Vbvrijvka ogulvgavbolo ngo nam pakdunv, nam ngo lvbula minam yangv si hv alvyagobo mvngdunv. Vbvrijvka Paul ngo svbv ridu, Jisu kristo gv nyitampingko bv ridu, okv vjvka ninyigv amin lvgabv pachipatwk lo doodunv.
10 I beg you, on behalf of my son, whom I have begotten in my chains, Onesimus.
Vkvlvgabv onesimus gv peelvbv ngo nam lvbula mindunv, ngoogv atunvgv kuunyilo bv kristo lo ridunv; pachipatwk arwng lo doori hoka ngo ninyigv dowjwklo gv abu bv ripv kunv.
11 In times past, he was useless to you, but now he is useful both to me and to you.
Alu gulo no lvgabv oguguchin richindakchin mato, vbvritola vjak alv rungbv rilakvnglak duku no gvbvka okv ngo gvbvka anyi gvbv alvjvnv gobv riduku.
12 So I have sent him back to you. And may you receive him like my own heart.
Vjak ninyia lvkodv no gvlo ngo vngkur mogv ikunv okv ngoogv haapok vka ninyigv lvkobv vngming gvvdunv.
13 I myself wanted to retain him with me, so that he might minister to me, on your behalf, while I am in the chains of the Gospel.
Ngoogv lvkobv ninyia so doomu nwngto nvi, Gamlv gv lvgalo ngoogv pachipatwk doi dvdv so, vkvlvgavbolo noogv mooku hoka ninyia modurvngdur yadubv.
14 But I was willing to do nothing without your counsel, so as not to make use of your good deed as if out of necessity, but only willingly.
Vbvrijvka, ngam ridurnam lvgabv ngo nam raitongtong nwngmado; Vbvyamabvdv, no lvgabv ngo noogv mvngnam bv um rimu nwngdunv. Vkvlvgabv no mvnglwk suma bolo ngo oguguchin rimu nyoya madunv.
15 So perhaps, then, he departed from you for a time, so that you might receive him again for eternity, (aiōnios g166)
Onesimus gv achukgo no gvlo gvngv kiyu namsi alvyago aakur lakula doobwng minggv yajikuladv vkvlvgabv kiku nvgoi. (aiōnios g166)
16 no longer as a servant, but, in place of a servant, a most beloved brother, especially to me: but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
Okv vjak ninyi nyira mvngchik bvkuma, vbvritola nyira am alv yasin nvbvku: Kristo lo hv ayanam achiboru ngvku. Hv ngam vdwgo pakdudw vkvgo namka kaiyago pakri nvpv, nyira bvkula okv Ahtu Jisu gvlo achiboru bvku. Anyi baabwng ngv nyira bv mvngma bv achiboru bv Ahtu Jisu gvlo ritoka!
17 Therefore, if you hold me to be a companion, receive him as you would me.
Vkvlvgabv no ngam ajin bv mvngdu bolo, ngam umbonyikv vla laarwk sinam aingbv ninyia laarwk sutoka.
18 But if he has harmed you in any way, or if he is in your debt, charge it to me.
Vdwlo ninyi ogugo rimur pvdw vmalo ogugo jikurrikur svgo doodudw um ngo gvlo sapnumbunam am saplwk tvka.
19 I, Paul, have written this with my own hand: I will repay. And I need not tell you, that you are also in debt yourself, to me.
Soka, ngo atunvgv laak lokv si lvkdunv: Paul ngo nam dorji riku. (Nam ngo lvko mvngpa dadubv rima svngv, vbvrijvka, no atubongv ngoogv rigurriyin nvnga mvngpa ridu.)
20 So it is, brother. May I delight with you in the Lord! Refresh my heart in Christ.
Vkvlvga, ngokv achiboru, kaju ngokv tongbv mvnglwk gvrila Ahtu gv amin lo ritoka; kristo lo achiboru bv ngam habiatata jitoka.
21 I have written to you, trusting in your obedience, knowing, too, that you will do even more than what I say.
Ngo mvngjwngdu, ngoogv lvknam sum, oguaingbv ngo tvvka pvdw no vbvching rire—nam chinrungdu ngo minam dvdv sumka um no kaiyasin bvka riri nvpv.
22 But also, at once, prepare a lodging for me. For I am hoping, through your prayers, to present myself to you.
Gaamgodv mindvdu, ngo lvgabv karchung lo ako mvpv jilaka, ngo mvngdu nonu mvnwng gv kumnam am Pwknvyarnv ngv tvvlaku okv ngam svbv nonu gvlo aakur modu kobv rireku.
23 Greet Epaphras, my fellow captive in Christ Jesus,
Epapras, ngoogv lvkobv pachipatwk lo Jisu kristo gv amin bv doonv, vdwka tulwk minggv gvrila ninyi gvbvka nam kumrwklwtak nama jilwk jidunv,
24 and Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my helpers.
okv ngo gv ribamdakbam nam Mark, Aristarkas, Demas, okv Luk bunu vdwka vbv jilwk minggvdu.
25 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
Nonu mvnwng lo Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv anyuaya ngv dooming gvilaka.
