Philippians 2
1 If then there is any consolation in Christ, if there is any comfort of divine love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercies,
Mũngĩkorwo mũrĩ na ũndũ o wothe wa kũũmanĩrĩria uumanĩte na ũrĩa mũnyiitithanĩtio na Kristũ, kana ũndũ o wothe wa kũhoorerania uumanĩte na wendani wake, o na kana wa kũgĩa na ngwatanĩro o yothe yumanĩte na Roho, o na kana ũhoro o wothe wa gũcaayanĩra na wa kũiguanĩra tha uumanĩte na Kristũ-rĩ,
2 fill my joy, that you may think the same thing, having the same divine love, being like-minded, thinking this one thing;
gĩtũmagei gĩkeno gĩakwa kĩiganĩre kũna nĩ ũndũ wa gũtũũra mũrĩ a mwĩciirĩrie o ro ũmwe, na mwendaine na wendani o ũmwe, na mũrĩ kĩndũ kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa roho o na meciiria.
3 that nothing is to be according to self-seeking nor according to vain glory, but in humility esteeming one another better than yourselves;
Mũtikaneke ũndũ mũkĩenda kwĩguna inyuĩ ene, o na kana nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩgaatha, no ikaragai mwĩnyiihĩtie, o mũndũ agatuaga mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ nĩ mwega makĩria yake mwene.
4 looking not each after your own interests, but each after that of others.
O mũndũ wanyu ndakarũmbũyagie maũndũ o marĩa mamũkoniĩ, no nĩarũmbũyagie maũndũ ma andũ arĩa angĩ o namo.
5 Think the same thing among yourselves, which is also in Christ Jesus:
Mwĩciirĩrie wanyu wagĩrĩirwo ũtuĩke o ta ũrĩa warĩ na Kristũ Jesũ:
6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not usurpation to be equal with God,
We-rĩ, o na gũtuĩka aarĩ Ngai, ndonire kũiganana na Ngai taarĩ ũndũ wa gũkumbatĩrio,
7 but he humbled himself, having taken the form of a servant, being in the likeness of men; and having been found in fashion like a man;
nowe nĩgũtiganĩria aatiganĩirie ũnene wake wothe, agĩtuĩka ta ngombo, agĩciarwo ta andũ a gũkũ thĩ.
8 he humbled himself, being obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
Nake ahaana ta mũndũ-rĩ, akĩĩnyiihia, na agĩathĩka o nginya akĩũragwo, o kũũragwo kũrĩa kwa mũtharaba!
9 Therefore God has indeed exalted him, and given him a name above every name;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Ngai nĩamũtũũgĩririe o nginya igũrũ mũno, na akĩmũhe rĩĩtwa rĩrĩa rĩkĩrĩte marĩa mangĩ mothe,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee must bow, of things in heaven and things upon the earth and things beneath the earth,
nĩguo atĩ thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ maru mothe magaturio, kũu igũrũ, na gũkũ thĩ, o na rungu rwa thĩ,
11 and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, unto the glory of God the Father.
na ningĩ atĩ nĩmĩ ciothe ciumbũrage atĩ Jesũ Kristũ nĩ Mwathani, nĩguo Ngai Ithe witũ agoocagwo.
12 So, my beloved brethren, as you have always harkened, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, arata akwa endwa-rĩ, o ta ũrĩa mũtũire mwathĩkaga, na to rĩrĩa ndaarĩ hamwe na inyuĩ, no makĩria rĩu itarĩ hamwe na inyuĩ-rĩ, thiĩi na mbere kũrutĩra ũhonokio wanyu wĩra, mũgĩĩtigagĩra na mũkĩinainaga,
13 for God is the one working in you both to will and to do, of his own good pleasure.
nĩgũkorwo nĩ Ngai ũrutaga wĩra thĩinĩ wanyu agatũma mwende gwĩkaga maũndũ make kũringana na wendi wake mwega.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputatious;
Ĩkagai maũndũ mothe mũtekũnuguna na mũtegũkararania,
15 in order that you may be blameless and pure, the children of God, irreproachable, amid a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,
nĩgeetha mwage ũcuuke na mũtuĩke atheru, mũtuĩke ciana cia Ngai itarĩ na kaũũgũ mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa rũciaro rũrũ ruogomu na rwaganu, na rĩrĩa mũrĩ hamwe nao inyuĩ mũkengage ta njata thĩ yothe,
16 having the word of life; unto my boasting in the day of Christ, because I did not run in vain, neither did I labor in vain.
o mũrũmĩtie kiugo kĩa muoyo, nĩguo ngaagĩa na ũndũ wa kwĩrahĩra mũthenya ũrĩa wa Kristũ atĩ ndiahanyũkire tũhũ kana ngĩruta wĩra ngĩnoga tũhũ.
17 But if indeed I am poured out for a sacrifice and an offering for your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice along with you all;
No rĩrĩ, o na ingĩtuĩka ndĩraitwo thakame igũrũ rĩa igongona ta ndĩ iruta rĩa kũnyuuo, nĩ ũndũ wa ũtungata ũrĩa mũtungatagĩra Ngai uumanĩte na wĩtĩkio wanyu-rĩ, nĩ ngenaga na ngacanjamũka hamwe na inyuĩ inyuothe.
18 but you also rejoice in this same thing, and rejoice along with me.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o na inyuĩ nĩmwagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkena na mũcanjamũke hamwe na niĩ.
19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus, speedily to send unto you Timothy, in order that I may also be delighted, having learned the things concerning you.
Nĩngwĩhoka ndĩ thĩinĩ wa Mwathani Jesũ atĩ nĩngũmũtũmĩra Timotheo o narua, nĩgeetha o na niĩ ngaakena hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaaheo ũhoro wanyu.
20 For I have no one like-minded, who will nobly remember the things concerning you;
Nĩgũkorwo ndirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ũhaana take, ũrĩa ũngĩrũmbũiya maũndũ manyu na ma.
21 for all are seeking after their own, and not the things of Jesus Christ.
Nĩgũkorwo andũ arĩa angĩ othe marũmbũyagia maũndũ mao ene, no ti maũndũ ma Jesũ Kristũ.
22 But you know his integrity, that, as a child a father, he served along with me in the gospel.
No inyuĩ nĩmũũĩ atĩ Timotheo nĩeyonanĩtie atĩ nĩ mũndũ mwega, tondũ o ta ũrĩa mwana atungataga hamwe na ithe-rĩ, noguo akoretwo agĩtungata hamwe na niĩ wĩra-inĩ wa kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
23 Indeed then I hope to send him, so soon as I may learn the things concerning myself:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩndĩrehoka kũmũtũma kũrĩ inyuĩ o ndaarĩkia kũmenya ũrĩa maũndũ makwa megũikara.
24 but I trust in the Lord that I myself will come speedily.
Ningĩ ndĩ na mwĩhoko thĩinĩ wa Mwathani atĩ niĩ mwene nĩngũũka o narua.
25 But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-laborer and fellow-soldier, and apostle and the minister of my necessity;
No rĩrĩ, nĩnguona kwagĩrĩire ndĩmũtũmĩre mũrũ wa Ithe witũ Epafarodito, ũrĩa tũrutaga wĩra na tũkarũĩrĩra ũhoro wa Ngai nake, na nĩwe mũtũmwo wanyu ũrĩa mwandũmĩire nĩguo arũmbũyagie mabata makwa.
26 since he was longing after you all, and grieving, because you heard that he was sick.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩamwĩriragĩria inyuothe, na nĩaratangĩka tondũ nĩmwaiguĩte atĩ aarĩ mũrũaru.
27 For he was indeed nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not only him, but me also, in order that I may not have sorrow upon sorrow.
Ti-itherũ aarĩ mũrũaru, o na aarĩ hakuhĩ gũkua. No Ngai nĩamũiguĩrĩire tha, na to we wiki waiguĩrĩirwo tha, no o na niĩ nĩanjiguĩrĩire tha nĩguo ndikae kũingĩhĩrwo nĩ kĩeha mũno.
28 Therefore I the more diligently, in order that, seeing him, you may rejoice again, and I may not be without sorrow.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kĩu nĩkĩo kĩratũma ndĩmũtũme na kwĩyendera kũnene, nĩgeetha mwamuona rĩngĩ mũkene, na niĩ nyihanyiihĩrwo nĩ gũtangĩka.
29 Then receive him in the Lord with all joy, and have such in honor:
Mwamũkĩrei wega thĩinĩ wa Mwathani mũrĩ na gĩkeno kĩnene, na mũtĩĩage andũ arĩa mahaana take,
30 because he was nigh unto death on account of the work of Christ, having jeoparded his life, in order that he might fulfill your deficiency of ministry towards me.
tondũ aarĩ hakuhĩ gũkua nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa Kristũ, ategũcaaĩra muoyo wake, nĩgeetha andeithĩrĩrie na ũteithio ũrĩa inyuĩ mũtangĩahotire kũũhe.
