< Philippians 2 >

1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
Khrih ingqawi tuqunaak ak caming thaawmnaak, a lungnaak caming ngaihqepnaak, Myihla ingkaw pawlnengnaak, thlang qeenkhaw ngaainaak, nami taak awhtaw,
2 Fulfill you my joy, that you be like minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
kawlung pynoet na ta unawh ka awmhlynaak ve soep sak lah uh, cawhkaw lungnaak ce ta unawh, kawlung pynoet ing cainaak ce ta lah uh.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Mah doeng ngaihnaak ing mai aw oekqunaak ing mai aw ik-oeih koeh sai law uh, cehlai kawdungnaak ing na mimah anglakawh thlak chang ce ak leek bet na poek law uh.
4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Na mimah a ngaihnaak doeng ce koeh toek law uh, thlakchang a ngaihnaak awm toek law pe uh.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Ve poeknaak, Jesu Khrih ak poeknaak amyihna awm seh nyng.
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Anih cetaw ang coengnaak awh Khawsa na awm hlai hy, Khawsa ing ang myih na a awmnaak ik-oeih ce tu aham ap poek hy,
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took on him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
amah ingkaw amah ce ikawna awm ang ngaiqu kaana, tyihzawih ang dyih hun ce a hul coengawh, thlanghqing amyihna ce sa qu hy,
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.
thlanghqing pynoet amyihna awm lawt nawh, dungvoeng na ce awm hy, thih dy na awi ngai nawh - thinglam khan awh thi hy.
9 Why God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Cedawngawh Khawsa ing, anih ce ak sang soeih awh ta nawh, ming boeih boeih ak khanawh, ak awm ming ce pehy.
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Jesu ang ming awh, khan ingkaw dek ingkaw khawmdek kai awhkaw, khawkhlu boeih ing khuksym nawh,
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Khawsa boeimang naak aham, lai boeih ing Jesu Khrih taw Boei ni tice ak kqawnnaak aham ni.
12 Why, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Cedawngawh ka pyikhqi, awi naming ngai khawi amyihna - kai ka awm awh awm, tuh am ka awm ak khqoet awh - kqih ingkaw thyn doena nangmih thaawngnaak ce bi poe lah uh,
13 For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
ngaihnaak ham ingkaw ak leek soeih amah ang cainaak sainaak aham nangmih ak khuiawh bi ak bikung taw Khawsa ni.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
A soep hoei ve hqo ang hqitnaak taak kaana sai law uh,
15 That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the middle of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world;
Khawsa a ca coet amak kapna nami awmnaak aham awipungnaak ingkaw hqo ang hqitnaak amak awmna a soep hoei ve sai law uh, cedawngawh nangmih taw khan nakaw aihchi amyihna vang uhyk ti.
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain.
Hqingnaak awi ce ak cakna namim tu awhtaw a hoeina am dawng nawh ka bibinaak ve a hoei na a awm kaana Khrih nyn awh ka zoeksang qu hly thai.
17 Yes, and if I be offered on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
Hyih phumnaak awh aawk hly kawi ik-oeih peek amyihna ni hawk unawh nangmih ak cangnaak awhkawng ak law bibinaak na awm mai nyng awm, nangmih awh zeel nyng.
18 For the same cause also do you joy, and rejoice with me.
Cemyih koepna nangmih awm kai amyihna namik kaw zeel nawh nami awmhly aham awm hy.
19 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly to you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
Nangmih a venawh Timote tyi law hly nai nyng tinawh Bawipa Jesu ak caming ngaih-uu nyng, cawh ni nangmih ak awithang kang zaak awh kai awm kang ngai a qep hly.
20 For I have no man like minded, who will naturally care for your state.
Nami leeknaak ahamna kawlung tak ing ak pequ, anih a myih thlakchang u awm am ta nyng.
21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.
Ikawtih, thlang boeih ing amimah a leeknaak doeng ce sui uhy, Jesu Khrih ak kawngaih am sui uhy.
22 But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.
Timote ingtaw amah ingkaw amah ce huqu hy, kawtih pa ingkaw capamyihna awithang leek awh bi ni bi pyi hy.
23 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.
Cedawngawh, ka bi sai ve ka nai ka nawng coengawh anih ce tyi law nai bit kawng tinawh ngaih-uu nyng.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.
Kamah awm law nai ngai kawng nyng tinawh Bawipak caming ngaih-uu nyng.
25 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labor, and fellow soldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.
Ka napa, ka bibipyi haih ingkaw ka qalkap pyi Apaphrodita ve nangmih a venawh ka tyih law tlaih ham ngoe hy tinawh poek nyng, anih nangmih a dyihthing na awm nawh kai anik bawmkung na nami tyih law na awm, awm bai hy.
26 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that you had heard that he had been sick.
Nangmih ni kyng nak khqi boeih hy, tlo hy tinawh naming zaak a dawngawh ak kaw se hy.
27 For indeed he was sick near to death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow on sorrow.
Thih tawm dyna tlo taw tlo hy. Cehlai, Khawsa ing qeen hy, anih doeng a qeen kaana kawsetnaak ce kawsetnaak ing ama sap voel aham kai awm ni qeen hy.
28 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Cedawngawh anih ce ka tyih law ham ngaih nyng, cawh ni anih ce nami huh awh zeel kawm u tiksaw kai awm am ka mawn am ka tang hly bet hy.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
Zeel doena anih ce Bawipa awh ym law uh, anih amyihna ak awm thlangkhqi awm kqihchah law uh,
30 Because for the work of Christ he was near to death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
A thih tawm dyna Khrih bi ce bi hy, nangmih ing am nami peek thai dawmhlainaak ce peek aham a hqingnaak dy awh kyinaak hu hy.
