Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellow laborer,
Phaawulos isa Kiristoos Yesuusiif jedhee hidhamee fi obboleessa keenya Xiimotewos irraa, Gara Fiilmoonaa isa jaallatamaa fi hojjetaa hidhata keenya taʼe sanaatti;
2 And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house:
akkanumas gara obboleettii keenya Aphifiyaatti, gara Arkiphaa isa nu wajjin loltuu taʼeetti, gara waldaa kiristaanaa ishee mana keetti walitti qabamtuuttis:
3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Abbaa keenya Waaqaa fi Yesuus Kiristoos Gooftaa irraa ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu.
4 I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers,
Ani yeroo kadhannaa koo keessatti si yaadadhu hunda Waaqa koo nan galateeffadha;
5 Hearing of your love and faith, which you have toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
ani waaʼee amantii kee kan ati Gooftaa Yesuusitti qabduu fi waaʼee jaalala kee kan ati qulqulloota isaa hundaaf qabduu nan dhagaʼaatii.
6 That the communication of your faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
Ani akka ati waaʼee waan gaarii nu Kiristoosiin qabnu hundumaa hubannaa guutuu qabaattee amantii kee namaan gaʼuuf jabaattu nan kadhadha.
7 For we have great joy and consolation in your love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by you, brother.
Yaa obboleessa, waan ati garaa qulqullootaa qabbaneessiteef jaalalli kee gammachuu fi jajjabina guddaa naa kenneera.
8 Why, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin you that which is convenient,
Kanaafuu ani akka ati waan hojjechuu qabdu hojjetu si ajajuuf yoo Kiristoosiin ija jabina qabaadhe illee,
9 Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech you, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
sababii jaalalaatiif cimseen si kadhadha. Egaa ani Phaawulos jaarsichii fi ammas Kiristoos Yesuusiif kanan hidhame,
10 I beseech you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
ilma koo Oneesimoos isa ani hidhamuu kootiin dhalche sanaaf sin kadhadha.
11 Which in time past was to you unprofitable, but now profitable to you and to me:
Inni kanaan dura nama homaa si hin fayyadne ture; amma garuu siifis anaafis nama faayidaa qabu taʼeera.
12 Whom I have sent again: you therefore receive him, that is, my own bowels:
Ani isa, nama akka garaa kootii sana deebisee gara keetti nan erga.
13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in your stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel:
Ani yeroon wangeelaaf hidhametti inni iddoo kee buʼee akka na tajaajiluuf of biratti isa hambifachuu barbaadeen ture.
14 But without your mind would I do nothing; that your benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
Ani garuu gaarummaan kee utuu dirqamaan hin taʼin fedhiidhaan akka taʼuuf waanuma tokko illee eeyyama kee malee gochuu hin barbaanne.
15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that you should receive him for ever; (aiōnios g166)
Tarii inni yeroo gabaabaaf siin gargar baʼuun isaa akka ati deebiftee isa simattee hamma dhumaatti of bira tursituuf taʼa; (aiōnios g166)
16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
atis siʼachi akka garbichaatti utuu hin taʼin, akka obboleessa jaallatamaa garbicha caalu tokkootti isa simadhu. Inni keessumattuu erga anaaf akkas jaallatamaa taʼe siif immoo fooniinis Gooftaadhaanis hammam caalaa jaallatamaa haa taʼu ree?
17 If you count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
Egaa ati yoo akka michuu keetiitti na ilaalte akkuma na simatutti isas simadhu.
18 If he has wronged you, or owes you something, put that on my account;
Yoo inni waanuma tokkoon illee si yakkee jiraate yookaan ati yoo waanuma tokko illee isa irraa qabaatte natti lakkaaʼi.
19 I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to you how you owe to me even your own self besides.
Ani Phaawulos siifan kaffala jedhee harkuma kootiin barreesseera. Akka ati mataan kee iyyuu kan koo taate ani homaa sitti hin himu.
20 Yes, brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
Egaa yaa obboleessa, ani Gooftaadhaan faayidaa kana sirraa argachuu nan barbaada; Kiristoositti garaa koo naa qabbaneessi.
21 Having confidence in your obedience I wrote to you, knowing that you will also do more than I say.
Akka ati waan ani si kadhadhu caalaa naa gootu beekuudhaan ajajamuu kee amanadhee siifan barreessa.
22 But with prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given to you.
Kana malees ani kadhannaa keessaniin akkan isiniif kennamu waanan abdadhuuf mana boqonnaa naa qopheessi.
23 There salute you Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus;
Ephaafiraan inni Kiristoos Yesuusiif jedhee na wajjin hidhame nagaa siif dhaama.
24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow laborers.
Akkasumas warri na wajjin hojjetan Maarqos, Arisxirokoos, Deemaasii fi Luqaas nagaa siif dhaamu.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
Ayyaanni Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos hafuura keessan wajjin haa taʼu.
