Philippians 4
1 So stand firm in the Lord, my dear friends who mean so much to me, who make me so happy! To me you are my crowning achievement! I truly love you and long to see you!
Yango wana, bandeko mpe balingami na ngai, bino oyo nazali na posa makasi ya komona lisusu, bino oyo bozali esengo mpe motole na ngai, botikala ngwi kati na Nkolo.
2 Euodia and Syntyche—I urge you to resolve your differences with each other and agree in the Lord.
Nasengi na Evodi mpe na Sentishe ete bazala na makanisi moko kati na Nkolo.
3 In fact, my faithful fellow-worker, let me ask you to help these women, for they worked together with me to spread the good news—as well as Clement and my other co-workers, whose names are recorded in the book of life.
Solo, nasengi lisusu na yo moninga na ngai ya motema kati na mosala: sunga basi oyo, pamba te babundaki mpo na Sango Malamu, elongo na ngai, Klema mpe baninga mosusu ya mosala oyo bakombo na bango ekomama kati na buku ya bomoi.
4 Always be happy in the Lord—I repeat, Be happy!
Bosepelaka tango nyonso kati na Nkolo; nazongeli yango lisusu: bosepelaka!
5 Everyone should know about your kindness. The Lord will soon be here.
Tika ete boboto na bino eyebana na bato nyonso. Nkolo akomi pene.
6 Don't worry about anything, but take everything to God in prayer, explaining your requests to him and thanking him for all he does.
Bomitungisaka ata na likambo moko te; kasi na makambo nyonso, botalisaka baposa na bino epai ya Nzambe na nzela ya losambo, ya mabondeli elongo na matondi.
7 Then the peace that comes from God, which is better than we can ever imagine, will protect your thoughts and attitudes in Christ Jesus.
Bongo kimia ya Nzambe, oyo eleki bososoli nyonso ekobatela mitema na bino mpe makanisi na bino kati na Yesu-Klisto.
8 Lastly, whatever is true, honorable, right, pure, beautiful, commendable, whatever is truly good and deserves to be praised, think about these kinds of things.
Bandeko, mpo na kosukisa, tika ete makambo nyonso oyo ezali ya solo, kitoko, sembo, peto, makambo oyo bato bakoki kolinga, kosepela na yango, kolula mpe kokumisa ezala tina ya makanisi na bino.
9 Put into practice what you learned and received from me, what you saw me doing and heard me say. Then the God of peace will be with you.
Bosalela makambo nyonso oyo boyekolaki, bozwaki, boyokaki mpe bomonaki epai na ngai; bongo Nzambe ya kimia akozala elongo na bino.
10 I'm so happy in the Lord that you've at last thought about me again—realizing that you were concerned about me before but you couldn't do anything about it.
Nazalaki penza na esengo mingi kati na Nkolo, wana botalisaki ngai lisusu bolingo na bino. Solo, bozalaki kokanisa kosunga ngai, kasi bozangaki nde libaku mpo na kokokisa yango.
11 I'm not talking about my own needs, because I've already learned to be satisfied in whatever situation I find myself.
Nalobi bongo te mpo ete nazali kokelela, pamba te nayekola kosepela na oyo nazali na yango.
12 I'm used to having nothing, and I've experienced having plenty too. In every possible situation I've learned the secret of dealing with having plenty and going hungry, of being rich and of living in poverty:
Nayebi kobika na tango ya kokelela, mpe nayebi kobika na tango ya bozwi. Kati na makambo nyonso mpe na tango nyonso, nayekola kozala na esengo: ezala soki nazali na bilei to nazangi yango, ezala soki nazali na bozwi to nakeleli.
13 I can do anything through him who makes me strong!
Nazali na makoki ya kosala makambo nyonso na nzela na Ye oyo apesaka ngai makasi.
14 Even so it was good of you to share with me during my troubles.
Nzokande bosalaki malamu, wana bosanganaki na pasi na ngai.
15 You Philippians remember that right at the beginning of sharing the good news, when I left Macedonia, that yours was the only church that helped me financially.
Bino bato ya Filipi, boyebi malamu ete, na ebandeli ya mosala na ngai ya koteya Sango Malamu, wana nalongwaki na Masedwane, ata Lingomba moko te esanganaki na ngai na nzela ya lisungi, longola kaka bino.
16 Even when I was in Thessalonica you helped me out not once but twice.
Tango mpe nazalaki na Tesalonika, botindelaki ngai mbala mibale lisungi ya biloko oyo nazalaki na yango na bosenga.
17 Not that I'm looking for a donation—I'm looking for your “account” to increase in “profit.”
Ezali te ete nazali koluka makabo kowuta epai na bino, kasi nazali koluka ete bambuma ya bolamu na bino efuluka lisusu koleka.
18 For I have everything, more than I need! I'm thankful to receive from Epaphroditus the things you sent. They're like a sweet-smelling sacrifice that pleases God and that he approves of.
Natatoli ete nasili kozwa biloko ebele penza mpe nakomi na yango ebele koleka, awa nazwi, na maboko ya Epafrodite, makabo oyo botindelaki ngai; yango ezali lokola malasi ya solo kitoko, mbeka oyo Nzambe andimi mpe oyo ezali kosepelisa Ye.
19 My God will fill you with everything you need in accordance with his glorious wealth in Christ Jesus!
Mpe Nzambe na ngai akokokisa baposa na bino kolanda bomengo ya nkembo na Ye kati na Yesu-Klisto.
Tika ete nkembo ezonga mpo na libela na libela epai na Nzambe oyo azali Tata na biso! Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Greet every fellow-believer in Christ Jesus. The Christian brothers and sisters with me send their greetings.
Bopesa mbote epai ya basantu nyonso kati na Yesu-Klisto. Bandeko oyo bazali awa elongo na ngai batindeli bino mbote.
22 All the believers send you greetings, especially those from Caesar's palace.
Basantu nyonso batindeli bino mbote, mingi-mingi ba-oyo bazali ya ndako ya mokonzi Sezare.
23 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Tika ete ngolu ya Nkolo Yesu-Klisto ezala elongo na molimo na bino!
