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,
Buyumi bwenu muli Yesu Klistu bukute kumupa ngofu, kayi lusuno lwakendi lukute kumupa katontoshi. Mukute kwikala ne moyo umo mu Mushimu Uswepa, kayi mukute nkumbo kayi nekuyandana umo ne umo.
2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
Neco ndamwambilinga kwambeti munkondweleshe nekusuminishana manjeyaulwa, kayi ne kuyandana kumo, nekwikala ne moyo umo, ne muyeyo umo.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Kamutensanga bintu mwakulisuna nambi mwakulitukumuna sobwe, nsombi kulicepesha kuli umo ne munendi. Cindi conse kamuyeyangeti munenu wamupita.
4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Kamutensanga bintu mbyomusuni amwe mwenka nsombi ne bintu mbyobasuni banenu.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Neco mwense mube ne moyo ngwalikukute Yesu Klistu.
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Nendi walikukute bwikalo bwa Lesa, nsombi nkaleleshapo kulyelanika ne Lesa wangofu.
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
Nendi walalichepesha nekwikala bwikalo eti musha, kayi walekala nebuyumi eti bantu bonse.
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Walalicepesha, kayi walenda mubuyumi bwakunyumfwila mpaka kushikila ku lufu lwakendi lwapalusanda.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Pacebo ici Lesa walamusumpula kupita byonse nekumupa lina lyapita maina onse.
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Walenseco kwambeti lina lya Yesu lyashumbulwa bintu byonse byakwilu ne byapanshi kayi ne panshi pacishi bikasuntame panshi nekumukambilila,
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
kayi byonse nibikasuminishe pantangalala kwambeti Yesu Klistu ni Mwami, kwambeti Lesa Bata balemekwe.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye 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.
Pacebo ici mwasunika, mwanyumfwilanga cindi conse mpondanga nenjamwe, nomba kamunyumfwilanga nambi ndi patali nenjamwe. Mupitilishe kusebensa mwabuyowa nekututuma kulesheti mwapuluka,
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
pakwinga Lesa endiye ukute kusebensa mulinjamwe, neco kamuyandanga kwinsa bintu byeshikumukondwelesha.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
Kamwinsanga bintu byonse mwakutatongauka nambi kutotekeshana,
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
kwambeti mube babula kampenda kayi nekuba bana ba Lesa baswepa abo balekalanga muchishi cabantu bapilinkana mano, kayi beshikulwanisha banabo. Pakati pabantu bamushoboyo mukute kubala eti nyenyeshi pacishi capanshi,
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
pa kubambila maswi eshikupa buyumi. Neco ame ninkabe necebo cakulinyumfwa pabusuba bwakubwela kwa Yesu. Busuba ubo nicikenshibike kwambeti nkandalasebensa mulimo wabulyo, kayi kwelesha kwakame kuliya kuba kwabulyo.
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
Lushomo lwenu lulyeti cipo ca mulumbo ulabengangwa kuli Lesa, neco na milopa yakame itika pa cipo ca mulumbo, ame ngankondwa pamo nenjamwe mwense.
18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
Cimo cimo nenjamwe mubenga mwakondwa, kayi nekusangalala pamo nenjame.
19 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
Na Mwami Yesu lasuminishi, ndashoma kwambeti ninkachikonshe kutuma Timoti kulinjamwe lino lino, kwambeti nkayuminishiwe ne mulumbe weshikufuma kulinjamwe.
20 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.
Endiye enka lamushilingonga mano eti njame.
21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.
Aba nabambi balashala balashilinga mano kubintu byabo kutamba pacebo ca Yesu Klistu sobwe.
22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.
Mwense muyinshi kendi milimo yaina Timoti njakute kwinsa pakwinga ndalasebensa nendiyeti mwana ne baishi, pakukambauka Mulumbe Waina.
23 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.
Pacebo ici ndashoma kwambeti nindimutume mwakufwambana, nimbone bintu ncoshi binyendele.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.
Ndashoma Mwami kwambeti, nenjame ninkese lino lino.
25 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.
Lino ndayeyeti ngacinyamfwa na ndamutumu kulinjamwe mukwetu Epaflodito. Nendi lasebense pamo nenjame, mushilikali muname, uyo ngomwalatuma kwisa akunyamfwa ame.
26 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.
Pakwinga layandishishinga kumubona mwense, kayi wongumana pacebo cakwambeti wabanga mulwashi mbuli ncomwalanyumfwa.
27 For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
Nicakubinga wabanga mulwashi pepi nekufwa. Nsombi Lesa wamubela nkumbo, kayi liyawa kwinshila inkumbo nendi enka sobwe, nsombi nenjame kwambeti ampulushe kumapensho anene.
28 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Weco ndayandishishinga kumutuma kulinjamwe kwambeti mukasekelele pamo nendiye mwakamubona, lino kungumana kwakame nikukacepe.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
Neco kamumutambulani camakasa abili nekukondwa eti mukwetu muli Klistu. Bantu bamushoboyu mwelela kubalemeka.
30 Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
Walayanda kufwa cebo camulimo wa Yesu Klistu. Walalibenga mwakutatina kwambeti ngofwa, kwambeti anyamfwe pa bintu ibyo amwe mbyomwalikubula kucikonshya.
