< Philippians 1 >
1 Paul and Timotheus, bondmen of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with [the] overseers and ministers;
Jesuh Khritawa mpya, Pawluh ja Timoti naw, Philipih mlüha awmki he Jesuh Khritaw üng pumat lü Pamhnam jumeikie, sangcim mkhawnge ja ning jah kpüikpakie mahmaha:
2 grace to you, and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
Mi Pa Pamhnam ja Bawipa Jesuh Khritaw naw bäkhäknak ja dimdeihnak ning jah pe se.
3 I thank my God for my whole remembrance of you,
Nangmi ka ning jah süm naküt üng, nangmia phäh Ka Pamhnam ka jenaki.
4 constantly in my every supplication, making the supplication for you all with joy,
Nangmi avana phäha ka ktaiyü naküt üng jekyainak am ka ktaiyüki.
5 because of your fellowship with the gospel, from the first day until now;
Isetiakyaküng thangkdawa phäh khut pawhnak üng acuteinak üngkhyüh tuh vei cäpa nami na kpüikpak ua phäh ni.
6 having confidence of this very thing, that he who has begun in you a good work will complete it unto Jesus Christ's day:
Ahina khut kdaw nangmi üng cuteiki Pamhnam naw a ngpäng vei, Jesuh Khritawa Khawmhnüp apha law vei cäpa bilo ktäi khai, tia ka jumeiki.
7 as it is righteous for me to think this as to you all, because ye have me in your hearts, and that both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the glad tidings ye are all participators in my grace.
Alä se ka mlungmthin üng ka ning jah sümki. Nangmia phäh ahikba ka ngaih hin ka phäha dawki. Isetikyaküng, Pamhnama na peta khut na kpüikpak u lü, thawngima ka ve üng pi ni se, thangkdaw saksi na lü acuna thangkdaw ka khängsak üng pi ni se, nami na kpüikpaka phäh ka ning jah süm nglätki ni.
8 For God is my witness how I long after you all in [the] bowels of Christ Jesus.
Jesuh Khritawa mhläkphyanak am ihlawka nami van ka ning jah hmu hlüki ti cun Pamhnam naw na ksingki ni. Aktäa ning jah hmu hlü lü ka khamei hin Khritaw Jesuh üngkhyüh lawkia kyaki ni.
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge and all intelligence,
Nami mhläkphyanak cun themngvainak kcang ja ngthumkhyahnak ngdüng am atänga a däm law bawkbawk vaia,
10 that ye may judge of and approve the things that are more excellent, in order that ye may be pure and without offence for Christ's day,
Acunakyase, akdaw säih cun nami xüei thei khaie. Acunüng va, am ngcimcaihnak ja Khritawa law be Mhnüp üng, mkateinak naküt üngkhyüh nami lät khaie.
11 being complete as regards the fruit of righteousness, which [is] by Jesus Christ, to God's glory and praise.
Pamhnama bungming a hlüngtainak vaia, Jesuh Khritaw däk naw ngsungpyunnaka ktheipaia nami xünsak ngtheipaisak khaia, ka ning jah ktaiyü petki ni.
12 But I would have you know, brethren, that the circumstances in which I am have turned out rather to the furtherance of the glad tidings,
Ka benae aw, ka khana pha lawki naküt hin thangkdaw ngthang hüsak dämki ti nami ksing vai ka ngja hlüki.
13 so that my bonds have become manifest [as being] in Christ in all the praetorium and to all others;
Acunakyase, Khritawa mpyaa ka thawna phäh thawngim üng ami na khyum hin bawingawhnak mtätki avan ja ahia veki avana veia ngthang hü päihki ni.
14 and that the most of the brethren, trusting in [the] Lord through my bonds, dare more abundantly to speak the word of God fearlessly.
Jumeikie naw kei thawngim üng ami na khyuma phäh Bawipa üng mkhühüpnak dämdäm yah u lü, thangkdaw ami sanga kcün naküt üng käh kyühei lang lü linglainak dämdäm jah peki.
15 Some indeed also for envy and strife, but some also for good will, preach the Christ.
Khyang akhäk naw püi mkeinak ja hnengnak mlung am Khritawa mawng sangkie ni. Cunüngpi akce he naw ta ami mlungkaw kcang am sangkie ni.
16 These indeed out of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the glad tidings;
Thangkdaw cun cangki ti lü sang khaia kei hin Pamhnam naw khut na petki ti cun amimi naw ksing u lü, thangkdaw cun k’üna lü mhläkphyanak am sangkie.
17 but those out of contention, announce the Christ, not purely, supposing to arouse tribulation for my bonds.
Ami mlung ngcim üng am ni lü, thawngim üng kyum lü ka khuikha law dämdäm khaia, ami na hnengnak üng thangkdaw sangkie ni.
18 What is it then? at any rate, in every way, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, yea, also I will rejoice;
Aiakyase pi ka jeki ni. Khritawa thangkdaw cun akdaw lam üng pi ni se, akse lam üng pi ni se sangkie ni. Acuna phäh atuh ka jekyaiki. Ka jekyai laihlaih khai.
19 for I know that this shall turn out for me to salvation, through your supplication and [the] supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ;
Nami ktaiyünak ja Jesuh Khritawa Ngmüimkhya üngkhyüh lawki kpüikpaknake naw kei cun na lätlangsak khai.
20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but in all boldness, as always, now also Christ shall be magnified in my body whether by life or by death.
Ka hlükawei ja äpeinak naw am na ngkekhyakeisak. Cunüng pi, ka thih üng pi kyase, ka xün üng pi kyase, atuh pi kyase ngawia pi kyase, linglainak am Khritaw cun ka pumsa naw mhlünmtai nglät khai.
21 For for me to live [is] Christ, and to die gain;
Xünnak ta i ni? Keia phäh ta xünnak hin Khritaw ni. Thih üngpi dawnak bawk ni.
22 but if to live in flesh [is my lot], this is for me worth the while: and what I shall choose I cannot tell.
Cunsepi, pumsa üng ka xüng laihlaih üng, ka ngtheipai dämdäm khawhki. Acunsepi hawn ka xü vai am ksing veng.
23 But I am pressed by both, having the desire for departure and being with Christ, [for] [it is] very much better,
Ka mlung nghngih kthum lü haw da ceh vai am ksing veng. Khawmdek hin ngkyapüi lü Khritaw üng ve yüm vai ka ngja hlüki. Acun cun ka phäha daw bawki ni.
24 but remaining in the flesh [is] more necessary for your sakes;
Cunüngpi, nangmia phäh ka xün vai hlü bawki ni.
25 and having confidence of this, I know that I shall remain and abide along with you all, for your progress and joy in faith;
Nangmi jumeinak am jekyai lü nami dämduh law vaia nami hlawnga ka ve khai ti ka ksing ngkhaiki ni.
26 that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus through me by my presence again with you.
Acunakyase, nami veia ka law betü üng, Khritaw Jesuh üng pummat lü keia phäh nami awhcah law bawkbawk khaie.
27 Only conduct yourselves worthily of the glad tidings of the Christ, in order that whether coming and seeing you, or absent, I may hear of what concerns you, that ye stand firm in one spirit, with one soul, labouring together in the same conflict with the faith of the glad tidings;
Aktung bawka ta nami awmih ngneisak Khritawa thangkdaw üng a ngkäk vai hlüki. Nami veia law lü ning jah teng law ngü sepi, am law be lü athuknaka ka ve üngpi, ngkhängkia mlung mat am ngdüi yüm lü thangkdaw jumeinak am ngtäknak nami pawh yüm vai u ka ngja hlüki.
28 and not frightened in anything by the opposers, which is to them a demonstration of destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God;
Nami yee käh jah kyühei ua. Aläa linglai u lü acun naw amimi sum u lü, nangmi nami ngnängki ti mdan khai ni. Isetiüng ngnängnak ning jah peki cun Pamhnama kyaki.
29 because to you has been given, as regards Christ, not only the believing on him but the suffering for him also,
Ani jumeinak däk üng am ni lü ania phäh khuikha nami khamei hin Khritawa khut pawh khaia kcün kdaw a ning jah peta nami kyaki.
30 having the same conflict which ye have seen in me, and now hear of in me.
Atuh ta kei am atänga ngtuknaka nami ngpüikie ni. Ahlana ngtuk ka pawh nami hmu khawikie. Nami ngjaka kba acuna jumeinak ngtuk üng ka veei hamki ni.
