Philippians 1
1 Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ; to all the saints in Christ Jesus, who are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons.
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 be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mi Pa Pamhnam ja Bawipa Jesuh Khritaw naw bäkhäknak ja dimdeihnak ning jah pe se.
3 I give thanks to my God in every remembrance of you,
Nangmi ka ning jah süm naküt üng, nangmia phäh Ka Pamhnam ka jenaki.
4 Always in all my prayers making supplication for you all, with joy;
Nangmi avana phäha ka ktaiyü naküt üng jekyainak am ka ktaiyüki.
5 For your communication in the gospel of Christ from the first day until now.
Isetiakyaküng thangkdawa phäh khut pawhnak üng acuteinak üngkhyüh tuh vei cäpa nami na kpüikpak ua phäh ni.
6 Being confident of this very thing, that he, who hath begun a good work in you, will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus.
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 meet for me to think this for you all, for that I have you in my heart; and that in my bands, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my joy.
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 Jesus Christ.
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 charity may more and more abound in knowledge, and in all understanding:
Nami mhläkphyanak cun themngvainak kcang ja ngthumkhyahnak ngdüng am atänga a däm law bawkbawk vaia,
10 That you may approve the better things, that you may be sincere and without offence unto the day of Christ,
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 Filled with the fruit of justice, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Pamhnama bungming a hlüngtainak vaia, Jesuh Khritaw däk naw ngsungpyunnaka ktheipaia nami xünsak ngtheipaisak khaia, ka ning jah ktaiyü petki ni.
12 Now, brethren, I desire you should know, that the things which have happened to me, have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel:
Ka benae aw, ka khana pha lawki naküt hin thangkdaw ngthang hüsak dämki ti nami ksing vai ka ngja hlüki.
13 So that my bands are made manifest in Christ, in all the court, and in all other places;
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 many of the brethren in the Lord, growing confident by my bands, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.
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, even out of envy and contention; but some also for good will preach 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 Some out of charity, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
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 And some out of contention preach Christ not sincerely: supposing that they raise affliction to my bands.
Ami mlung ngcim üng am ni lü, thawngim üng kyum lü ka khuikha law dämdäm khaia, ami na hnengnak üng thangkdaw sangkie ni.
18 But what then? So that by all means, whether by occasion, or by truth, Christ be preached: in this also I rejoice, yea, and 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 fall out to me unto salvation, through your prayer, 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 expectation and hope; that in nothing I shall be confounded, but with all confidence, as always, so now also shall Christ be magnified in my body, wither it be 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 to me, to live is Christ; and to die is gain.
Xünnak ta i ni? Keia phäh ta xünnak hin Khritaw ni. Thih üngpi dawnak bawk ni.
22 And if to live in the flesh, this is to me the fruit of labour, and what I shall choose I know not.
Cunsepi, pumsa üng ka xüng laihlaih üng, ka ngtheipai dämdäm khawhki. Acunsepi hawn ka xü vai am ksing veng.
23 But I am straitened between two: having a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the 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 to abide still in the flesh, is needful for you.
Cunüngpi, nangmia phäh ka xün vai hlü bawki ni.
25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, and continue with you all, for your furtherance and joy of faith:
Nangmi jumeinak am jekyai lü nami dämduh law vaia nami hlawnga ka ve khai ti ka ksing ngkhaiki ni.
26 That your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus for me, by my coming to you again.
Acunakyase, nami veia ka law betü üng, Khritaw Jesuh üng pummat lü keia phäh nami awhcah law bawkbawk khaie.
27 Only let your conversation be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you, or, being absent, may hear of you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind labouring together for the faith of the gospel.
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 in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this 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 For unto you it is given for Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him.
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 as that which you have seen in me, and now have heard of 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.
