Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker,
Nne Pauli nankutabhwa kwa ligongo lya a Yeshu Kilishitu, na alongo ajetu a Timoteo, tunakunjandishila mmwe a Pilimoni nkupingwa na uwe na mmakamula liengo ajetu,
2 and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in your house:
na alumbu bhetu a Apiya, na a Alikipo linjola nnjetu nngulupai na likanisha liimananga nnyumba jabho.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Nema na ulele kopoka kwa Atati a Nnungu na Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu, ibhe na mmanganyanji.
4 I give thanks to my God, always making mention of you in my prayers,
Ngunakwaatendela eja a Nnungu bhangu mobha gowe, pungunkumbushila mwe a Pilimoni nkujuga kwangu,
5 hearing of your love and faith that you have to the Lord Jesus and toward all the holy ones,
pabha ngulipilikana shinkuti kwaakulupalila a Yeshu Bhakulungwa bhetu na shinkuti kwaapinganga bha ukonjelo bhowe bha a Nnungu.
6 that the fellowship of your faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that [is] in you toward Christ Jesus;
Ngunakwaajuga a Nnungu kuti, ngulupai jimuilundile na uwe jinkomboye kubha na lumanyio lwa kushimanya kila shindu sha mmbone shitukwete, nkulundana kwetu na a Kilishitu.
7 for we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the yearnings of the holy ones have been refreshed through you, brother.
Pabha kwa kwaapinganga kwenu bhandu, kushing'angalaya kaje na njitagwa ntima kwa ligongo lyenu mwe mmakilishitu ajangu, numbe nshikujiangalaya mitima ja bhandunji bha ukonjelo.
8 For this reason, having in Christ much boldness to command you that which is fit—
Kwa nneyo, ikabhe ngwete makangala ga kunnajila mmwe ntende indu inkupinjikwa tenda pabha nkulundana kwangu na a Kilishitu,
9 because of the love I rather plead, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;
ikabheje kwa ligongo lya nonyelana ngunakunjuga, malinga nne Pauli shingongopele shino, na numbe nnaino nankutabhwa kwa ligongo lya a Yeshu Kilishitu.
10 I beg you concerning my child—whom I begot in my bonds—Onesimus,
Bhai ngunakunnjuga kwa ligongo lika mwanangu Oneshimushi, junimpatile nngulupai nili nkutabhwa.
11 who once was to you unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to you,
Bhukala jwenejo akampwaaga, ikabheje nnaino shampwae mmwe na nkali nne.
12 whom I sent again to you—he who is my own heart,
Lelo ngunakummuja najo kwenu mmwe, jwenejo ni malinga ntima gwangu namwene.
13 whom I intended to retain to myself, that in your behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
Napinjile atame na nne nkupinga anyangutile maengo penu mmwe, pepano pundabhilwe kwa ligongo lya Ngani ja Mmbone pano.
14 but apart from your mind I willed to do nothing, so that your good deed may not be as of necessity, but of willingness,
Ikabheje ngapinga kutenda shoshowe gwangali kumpilikana mmwe, nkupinga uguja gwenu unabhe gwa shishilishiywa, ikabhe ubhe gwa pinga mmayene.
15 for perhaps because of this he departed for an hour, that you may have him continuously, (aiōnios g166)
Pana mwashinkulekana naka Oneshimo mobha gashoko, nkupinga abhujaga, atame na mmwe mobha gowe. (aiōnios g166)
16 no longer as a servant, but above a servant—a beloved brother, especially to me, and how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the LORD!
Bhai nnaino jwenejo nngabha ntumwape, ikabhe jwa mmbone kupunda ntumwa, ni nnongo nnjetu, nne ananonyela kaje, numbe mmwe shapunde kunnonyela, jweneju nnjetu na nnongo nnjetu nkulundana na Bhakulungwa.
17 If, then, you have fellowship with me, receive him as me,
Kwa nneyo malinga shinkumona nne kuti nannjenu, bhai mumposhele jwenejo mbuti nkumboshela nne.
18 and if he did hurt to you, or owes anything, charge this to me;
Monaga annebhele shoshowe eu nnakunnonga shoshowe, bhai shenesho nnonje nne.
19 I, Paul, wrote with my hand, I will repay; besides, that I may not say that you also owe to me yourself.
Nne Pauli ngujandika jene bhaluwa jino kwa nkono gwangu namwene, nguti shinipe. Ngakunkumbushiya kuti ngunalongwa ga maisha genu.
20 Yes, brother, may I have profit of you in the LORD; refresh my yearnings in the LORD;
Elo apwanga, ngunapinga mbwaishe kwenu mmwe kupitila Bhakulungwa, nng'angalaye ntima gwangu nkulundana na a Kilishitu.
21 I wrote to you having been confident in your obedience, having known that you will also do above what I may say;
Ngunakunnjandishila pabha nikumanyi kukunda kwenu, nimumanyi kuti shintende nkali kupunda guninnjandishilego.
22 and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I will be granted to you.
Punda genego, mmishile ukoto pa ishila, pabha ngunakulupalila kuti, kwa nyujilanga kwenunji, a Nnungu shibhambe shikono sha bhuja kweneko.
23 Epaphras greets you (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus),
A Epapula, bhaatabhwa pamo na nne kwa ligongo lya kwaatumishila a Yeshu Kilishitu, bhanakunnamushilanga.
24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow-workmen!
Na a Maliko, na a Alishitako, na a Dema, na a Luka bhaakamula maengo ajangunji bhanakunnamushilanga.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit! Amen.
Nema ja Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu jitame mmitima jenunji.
