Philippians 3
1 For the rest, my brethren, rejoice in [the] Lord: to write the same things to you, to me [is] not irksome, and for you safe.
Mbesi, achalongo achinjangu, nsengweje kwa ligongo lya kulumbikana ni Ambuje. Ngangupela kunlembela sooni indu ilaila inalongolele kunnembela, pakuŵa yeleyo chiinfai ŵanyamwe.
2 See to dogs, see to evil workmen, see to the concision.
Nlilolechesye ni aŵala ŵakuitendekanya ya chigongomalo, ŵaali mpela mbwa, ŵandu ŵakukanganyichisya kuumbala.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship by [the] Spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, and do not trust in flesh.
Uweji tuli ŵandu ŵaumbale isyene, ngaŵa ŵanyawo, pakuŵa tukwapopelela Akunnungu kwa kulongoswa ni Mbumu jwao ni tukulilapa kwakulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu. Ngatukuikulupilila indu yaikutendekwa mu chiilu.
4 Though I have [my] trust even in flesh; if any other think to trust in flesh, I rather:
Nambo uneji ngakombwele kuikulupilila indu yaikutendekwa mu chiilu. Iŵaga kwana mundu jwakuganisya kuti akukombola kulifunila chisyoŵelo cha kuumbala, une naapundile.
5 as to circumcision, [I received it] the eighth day; of [the] race of Israel, of [the] tribe of Benjamin, Hebrew of Hebrews; as to [the] law, a Pharisee;
Naumbele panaliji ni moŵa nane pakumala kupagwa. Uneji ndili Mwisilaeli jwa lukosyo lwa Benyamini ni Mwebulania kwa chipago. Nkati kugakamulisya malajisyo, naliji Mfalisayo,
6 as to zeal, persecuting the assembly; as to righteousness which [is] in [the] law, found blameless;
nachalile nnope kwalagasya mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito. Nkati kutendekwa ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu kwa kwitichisya Malajisyo, naliji jwangali chileŵo.
7 but what things were gain to me these I counted, on account of Christ, loss.
Aila indu yose inaiweni ili yakupoka kwaune, sambano nguiwona yangali chindu kwa ligongo lya Kilisito.
8 But surely I count also all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all, and count them to be filth, that I may gain Christ;
Elo, ngaŵa yeleyo pe, indu yose nguiwona yangali chindu kwa ligongo lya chindu chachikulungwa chambone cha kwamanyilila Kilisito Yesu, Ambuje ŵangu. Kwa ligongo lyao nyasile indu yose ni kwiŵalanjila usakwa kuti naapate Kilisito
9 and that I may be found in him, not having my righteousness, which [would be] on the principle of law, but that which is by faith of Christ, the righteousness which [is] of God through faith,
ni kulumbikana nawo kuli kusyene. None nganguŵalanjilwa sooni jwambone paujo pa Akunnungu kwakujitichisya malajisyo, nambo nguŵalanjilwa jwambone paujo pa Akunnungu kwa kwakulupilila Kilisito. Kwele kutendekwa jwambone paujo pa Akunnungu kukutyochela kwa Akunnungu kwa litala lya chikulupi.
10 to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
Ngusaka namanyilile Kilisito ni machili ga kusyuka kwakwe, ngusaka laje mpela iŵatite kulaga ni kuwa kwa ligongo lyao mpela iŵatite kuwa kwa ligongo lyangu,
11 if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among [the] dead.
akuno njilolelaga kuti Akunnungu chasyusye.
12 Not that I have already obtained [the prize], or am already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may get possession [of it], seeing that also I have been taken possession of by Christ [Jesus].
Ngangusaka kusala kuti masile kwika kumbesi pane ndili jwamalilwe. Nambo nguchalila kuti mbate ntulilo, kwa litala lya wele ntulilo wo Kilisito Yesu asyene ambatile une meje jwao.
13 Brethren, I do not count to have got possession myself; but one thing — forgetting the things behind, and stretching out to the things before,
Achalongo achinjangu, nganguliganichisya kuti masile kupochela ntulilo, nambo nguchitenda chindu chimo pe, nguiliŵalila indu yepite ni nguchalila kuti ngole indu yaikwika.
14 I pursue, [looking] towards [the] goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.
Nguutuka kuti nyiche kumbesi luwilo, kuti mbochele ntulilo wa Akunnungu wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, aula uŵilanje watuŵilasile Akunnungu kwa litala lya Kilisito Yesu.
15 As many therefore as [are] perfect, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this also God shall reveal to you.
Uwe wose ŵatukusile mmbumu, tuganisyeje yimo. Naga nkwete maganisyo gane, Akunnungu tambunukulile chindu cho.
16 But whereto we have attained, [let us] walk in the same steps.
Nambo, kwa yailiyose tujendelechele mmbujo mu litala lilyolyo lyatukuiye mpaka sambano.
17 Be imitators [all] together of me, brethren, and fix your eyes on those walking thus as you have us for a model;
Achalongo achinjangu, musyasye une. Mwaloleje yambone ŵakuchikuya chisyasyo cha majende gatumpele ŵanyamwe.
18 (for many walk of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they [are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Nansalile kakajinji chindu chi, ni sambano ngunsalila sooni akuno njililaga, ŵandu ŵajinji akutama nti ŵammagongo ŵa nsalaba wa Kilisito.
19 whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is] the belly, and [their] glory in their shame, who mind earthly things: )
Mbesi jao jili wonasi, pakuŵa nnungu wao ali misese ja chiilu. Akulilapila indu ya soni, ni ng'anisyo syao sili pachanya pa indu ya pachilambo pa.
20 for our commonwealth has its existence in [the] heavens, from which also we await the Lord Jesus Christ [as] Saviour,
Nambo uweji kumangwetu kwinani, ni kutyochela kweleko tukwalolela Nkulupusyo jwetu kwa lungwanu Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito aiche kutyochela kwinani.
21 who shall transform our body of humiliation into conformity to his body of glory, according to the working of [the] power which he has even to subdue all things to himself.
Ŵelewo chaigalausye ilu yetu ya kuwola, ni kuilandanya iŵe mpela ni chilu chao cha ukulu. Kwa ukombole wo akukombola kuilongosya indu yose.
