Philippians 1
1 Paul and Timotheus the seruants of IESVS CHRIST, to all the Saintes in Christ Iesus which are at Philippi, with the Bishops, and Deacons:
Nĩ ithuĩ Paũlũ na Timotheo, ngombo cia Kristũ Jesũ, Marũa maya tũrandĩkĩra andũ othe arĩa aamũre thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ arĩa mũrĩ kũu Filipi, hamwe na arori a kanitha, o na atungati aguo.
2 Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
Mũrogĩa na wega na thayũ ciumĩte kũrĩ Ngai Ithe witũ, na Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ.
3 I thanke my God, hauing you in perfect memorie,
Nĩnjookagĩria Ngai wakwa ngaatho rĩrĩa rĩothe ndaamũririkana.
4 (Alwayes in all my praiers for all you, praying with gladnesse)
Rĩrĩa rĩothe ngũmũhoera inyuothe-rĩ, ndĩmũhooyagĩra hĩndĩ ciothe ngenete.
5 Because of the fellowship which ye haue in the Gospel, from the first day vnto nowe.
Tondũ wa ngwatanĩro iitũ na inyuĩ harĩ Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, kuuma o mũthenya wa mbere nginya rĩu.
6 And I am persuaded of this same thing, that he that hath begunne this good worke in you, wil perfourme it vntill the day of Iesus Christ,
Niĩ nĩnjũũĩ ũndũ ũyũ na ma, atĩ Ngai ũrĩa waambĩrĩirie wĩra mwega thĩinĩ wanyu nĩegũthiĩ na mbere kũũruta, na ndekũũtigithĩria ataũrĩkĩtie nginya mũthenya ũrĩa Kristũ Jesũ agaacooka.
7 As it becommeth me so to iudge of you all, because I haue you in remembrance that both in my bands, and in my defence, and confirmation of the Gospell you all were partakers of my grace.
Kuona atĩ mũkoragwo mũrĩ ngoro-inĩ yakwa, nĩ njagĩrĩirwo nĩkũigua ũguo nĩ ũndũ wanyu inyuothe; tondũ-rĩ, kana nĩ kuohwo njohetwo na mĩnyororo, kana nĩ kũrũĩrĩra na gwĩkĩra hinya Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, inyuĩ inyuothe nĩmũgwatanagĩra na niĩ thĩinĩ wa wega wa Ngai.
8 For God is my recorde, howe I long after you all from the very heart roote in Iesus Christ.
Ngai nĩ mũira wakwa atĩ nĩndĩmwĩriragĩria inyuothe ndĩ na wendo wa Kristũ Jesũ.
9 And this I pray, that your loue may abound, yet more and more in knowledge, and in all iudgement,
Na ũrĩa hooyaga nĩ atĩrĩ: atĩ wendani wanyu ũingĩhe mũno makĩria, mũkĩongagĩrĩrwo ũmenyo na ũkuũku wothe,
10 That ye may alowe those things which are best, that ye may be pure, and without offence vntill the day of Christ,
nĩgeetha mũhotage gũkũũrana maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire makĩria ya marĩa mangĩ, na mũkoragwo mũrĩ atheru na mũtarĩ na ũcuuke o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa wa Kristũ,
11 Filled with the fruites of righteousnesse, which are by Iesus Christ vnto the glorie and praise of God.
na mũtũũre mũiyũrĩtwo nĩ maciaro ma ũthingu marĩa monekaga na ũndũ wa Jesũ Kristũ, nĩguo Ngai akumagio na agoocagwo.
12 I would ye vnderstood, brethren, that the things which haue come vnto me, are turned rather to the furthering of the Gospell,
Na rĩu ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, nĩngwenda mũmenye atĩ maũndũ marĩa mangorete ti-itherũ nĩmatũmĩte Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega ũthiĩ na mbere.
13 So that my bandes in Christ are famous throughout all the iudgement hall, and in all other places,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, nĩkũmenyekete wega nĩ arangĩri a nyũmba ya mũthamaki, o na kũrĩ andũ arĩa angĩ othe atĩ niĩ njohetwo na mĩnyororo nĩ ũndũ wa Kristũ.
14 In so much that many of the brethren in the Lord are boldened through my bandes, and dare more frankely speake the word.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa njohetwo, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ aingĩ nĩmomĩrĩirio kwaria kiugo kĩa Ngai marĩ na ũũmĩrĩru mũnene na matarĩ na guoya.
15 Some preache. Christ euen through enuie and strife, and some also of good will.
Nĩ ũhoro wa ma atĩ amwe mahunjagia Kristũ marĩ na ũiru na ngarari, no angĩ mahunjagia marĩ na ngoro njega.
16 The one part preacheth Christ of contention and not purely, supposing to adde more affliction to my bandes.
Acio mahunjagia marĩ na ngoro njega-rĩ, mekaga ũguo marĩ na wendani, makĩmenyaga atĩ njigĩĩtwo gũkũ nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũĩrĩra Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
17 But the others of loue, knowing that I am set for the defence of the Gospell.
Acio angĩ mahunjagia ũhoro wa Kristũ makĩenda kwĩguna, matarĩ na ngoro theru, mageciiragia atĩ meka ũguo nĩmekũnyongererithia thĩĩna rĩu ndĩ muohe.
18 What then? yet Christ is preached all maner wayes, whether it be vnder a pretence, or syncerely: and I therein ioye: yea and will ioye.
No rĩrĩ, ũcio ti ũndũ wa bata kũrĩ niĩ. Ũndũ ũrĩa wa bata nĩ atĩ Kristũ nĩahunjagio na njĩra o yothe, o na ĩngĩtuĩka nĩ njĩra ya ũhinga, kana nĩ njĩra ya ũhoro wa ma. Na nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo-rĩ, nĩngenaga. Ĩĩ, o na no ngũthiĩ na mbere na gũkena,
19 For I knowe that this shall turne to my saluation through your prayer, and by the helpe of the Spirit of Iesus Christ,
nĩgũkorwo nĩnjũũĩ atĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mahooya manyu na ũteithio ũrĩa ũheanĩtwo nĩ Roho wa Jesũ Kristũ, maũndũ marĩa mangorete nĩmakagarũrũka matuĩke ma kũhonokia.
20 As I feruently looke for, and hope, that in nothing I shalbe ashamed, but that with all confidence, as alwayes, so nowe Christ shalbe magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death.
Nĩnjĩrĩgĩrĩire ngĩhĩahĩaga na ngehoka atĩ ndigaconoka o na atĩa, no atĩ ngorwo na ũũmĩrĩru mũiganu nĩgeetha rĩu, na o ta ũrĩa ndũire, Kristũ atũũgagĩrio thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ wakwa, ingĩkorwo ndĩ muoyo o na kana nguĩte.
21 For Christ is to me both in life, and in death aduantage.
Nĩgũkorwo harĩ niĩ-rĩ, gũtũũra muoyo nĩ Kristũ, nakuo gũkua-rĩ, nĩ uumithio.
22 And whether to liue in the flesh were profitable for me, and what to chuse I knowe not.
No rĩrĩ, kũngĩkorwo gũtũũra muoyo ndĩ na mwĩrĩ nĩkuo kũngĩtũma wĩra wakwa ũgĩe na maciaro-rĩ, nĩ kĩĩ ingĩgĩthuura? Niĩ ndiũũĩ!
23 For I am distressed betweene both, desiring to be loosed and to be with Christ, which is best of all.
Niĩ nĩnguucanĩirio nĩ maũndũ maya meerĩ: Ndĩriragĩria gũthiĩ ngatũũranie na Kristũ, na ũguo nĩguo wega makĩria;
24 Neuerthelesse, to abide in the flesh, is more needefull for you.
no gũtũũra muoyo ndĩ na mwĩrĩ ũyũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu nĩ kwagĩrĩire mũno makĩria.
25 And this am I sure of, that I shall abide, and with you all continue, for your furtherance and ioy of your faith,
Na tondũ nĩmenyete ũguo kũna-rĩ, nĩnjũũĩ atĩ nĩngũtũũra muoyo, na nĩngũtũũrania na inyuĩ inyuothe nĩguo ndũme mũthiiage na mbere, na mũgĩe na gĩkeno nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa mwĩtĩkĩtie,
26 That ye may more aboundantly reioyce in IESVS CHRIST for me, by my comming to you againe.
nĩgeetha ndakorwo na inyuĩ rĩngĩ, gĩkeno kĩanyu kĩiyũrĩrĩre thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
27 Onely let your conuersation be, as it becommeth the Gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you, or els be absent, I may heare of your matters that ye continue in one Spirit, and in one mind, fighting together through the faith of the Gospel.
Na rĩrĩ, ũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ bata nĩ atĩ mũthiiage na mĩthiĩre ĩrĩa yaganĩrĩire na Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Kristũ, nĩgeetha ingĩũka kũmũrora kana njage gũũka, njiguage ũhoro wanyu o na itarĩ hamwe na inyuĩ menyage atĩ nĩmũikarĩte mwĩhaandĩte wega mũrĩ na roho o ro ũmwe, mũkĩrũĩrĩra wĩtĩkio wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega mũrĩ na ngoro ĩmwe,
28 And in nothing feare your aduersaries, which is to them a token of perdition, and to you of saluation, and that of God.
mũtekũmakio o na atĩa nĩ arĩa mamũthũire. Naguo ũndũ ũcio ũtuĩke kĩmenyithia kũrĩ o atĩ nĩmakanangwo, no atĩ inyuĩ nĩmũkahonokio, na Ngai we mwene nĩwe ũkaamũhonokia.
29 For vnto you it is giuen for Christ, that not onely ye should beleeue in him, but also suffer for his sake,
Nĩgũkorwo ha ũhoro wa Kristũ-rĩ, nĩmwĩtĩkĩrĩtio kũmwĩtĩkia, na to kũmwĩtĩkia kuo gwiki, o na kũnyariirwo nĩ ũndũ wake,
30 Hauing the same fight, which ye sawe in me, and nowe heare to be in me.
kuona atĩ nĩmũrarũa mbaara ĩrĩa muonete ngĩrũa, na noyo mũraigua atĩ nĩ ndĩrarũa o na rĩu.
