Philippians 1

1 Paul and Timotheus, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the holy ones in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with overseers and servants:

paulatImathinAmAnau yIshukhrIShTasya dAsau philipinagarasthAn khrIShTayIshoH sarvvAn pavitralokAn samiteradhyakShAn parichArakAMshcha prati patraM likhataH|

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

asmAkaM tAta IshvaraH prabhu ryIshukhrIShTashcha yuShmabhyaM prasAdasya shAnteshcha bhogaM deyAstAM|

3 I give thanks to my God on all the remembrance of you,

ahaM nirantaraM nijasarvvaprArthanAsu yuShmAkaM sarvveShAM kR^ite sAnandaM prArthanAM kurvvan

4 always, in every supplication of mine for you all, with joy making the supplication,

yati vArAn yuShmAkaM smarAmi tati vArAn A prathamAd adya yAvad

5 for your contribution to the good news from the first day until now,

yuShmAkaM susaMvAdabhAgitvakAraNAd IshvaraM dhanyaM vadAmi|

6 having been confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you, will complete [it] until [the] day of Jesus Christ,

yuShmanmadhye yenottamaM karmma karttum Arambhi tenaiva yIshukhrIShTasya dinaM yAvat tat sAdhayiShyata ityasmin dR^iDhavishvAso mamAste|

7 according as it is righteous for me to think this in behalf of you all, because of my having you in the heart, both in my bonds, and [in] the defense and confirmation of the good news, all of you being fellow-partakers with me of grace.

yuShmAn sarvvAn adhi mama tAdR^isho bhAvo yathArtho yato. ahaM kArAvasthAyAM pratyuttarakaraNe susaMvAdasya prAmANyakaraNe cha yuShmAn sarvvAn mayA sArddham ekAnugrahasya bhAgino matvA svahR^idaye dhArayAmi|

8 For God is my witness, how I long for you all with [the] yearnings of Jesus Christ,

aparam ahaM khrIShTayIshoH snehavat snehena yuShmAn kIdR^ishaM kA NkShAmi tadadhIshvaro mama sAkShI vidyate|

9 and this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge, and all discernment,

mayA yat prArthyate tad idaM yuShmAkaM prema nityaM vR^iddhiM gatvA

10 for your proving the things that differ, that you may be pure and offenseless—to [the] Day of Christ,

j nAnasya vishiShTAnAM parIkShikAyAshcha sarvvavidhabuddhe rbAhulyaM phalatu,

11 being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that [is] through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

khrIShTasya dinaM yAvad yuShmAkaM sAralyaM nirvighnatva ncha bhavatu, Ishvarasya gauravAya prashaMsAyai cha yIshunA khrIShTena puNyaphalAnAM pUrNatA yuShmabhyaM dIyatAm iti|

12 And I intend you to know, brothers, that the things concerning me, rather have come to an advancement of the good news,

he bhrAtaraH, mAM prati yad yad ghaTitaM tena susaMvAdaprachArasya bAdhA nahi kintu vR^iddhireva jAtA tad yuShmAn j nApayituM kAmaye. ahaM|

13 so that my bonds have become evident in Christ in the whole Praetorium, and to all the other places,

aparam ahaM khrIShTasya kR^ite baddho. asmIti rAjapuryyAm anyasthAneShu cha sarvveShAM nikaTe suspaShTam abhavat,

14 and the greater part of the brothers in the LORD, having confidence by my bonds, are more abundantly bold to fearlessly speak the word.

prabhusambandhIyA aneke bhrAtarashcha mama bandhanAd AshvAsaM prApya varddhamAnenotsAhena niHkShobhaM kathAM prachArayanti|

15 Certain, indeed, even through envy and contention, and certain also through goodwill, preach the Christ;

kechid dveShAd virodhAchchApare kechichcha sadbhAvAt khrIShTaM ghoShayanti;

16 one, indeed, of rivalry proclaims the Christ, not purely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds,

ye virodhAt khrIShTaM ghoShayanti te pavitrabhAvAt tanna kurvvanto mama bandhanAni bahutarakloshadAyIni karttum ichChanti|

17 and the other out of love, having known that I am set for defense of the good news:

ye cha premnA ghoShayanti te susaMvAdasya prAmANyakaraNe. ahaM niyukto. asmIti j nAtvA tat kurvvanti|

18 what then? In every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed—and I rejoice in this, indeed, and will rejoice.

kiM bahunA? kApaTyAt saralabhAvAd vA bhavet, yena kenachit prakAreNa khrIShTasya ghoShaNA bhavatItyasmin aham AnandAmyAnandiShyAmi cha|

19 For I have known that this will turn out to me for salvation, through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Christ Jesus,

yuShmAkaM prArthanayA yIshukhrIShTasyAtmanashchopakAreNa tat mannistArajanakaM bhaviShyatIti jAnAmi|

20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will be ashamed in nothing, and in all freedom, as always, also Christ will now be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death,

tatra cha mamAkA NkShA pratyAshA cha siddhiM gamiShyati phalato. ahaM kenApi prakAreNa na lajjiShye kintu gate sarvvasmin kAle yadvat tadvad idAnImapi sampUrNotsAhadvArA mama sharIreNa khrIShTasya mahimA jIvane maraNe vA prakAshiShyate|

21 for to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.

yato mama jIvanaM khrIShTAya maraNa ncha lAbhAya|

22 And if to live in the flesh [is] to me a fruit of work, then what will I choose? I do not know;

kintu yadi sharIre mayA jIvitavyaM tarhi tat karmmaphalaM phaliShyati tasmAt kiM varitavyaM tanmayA na j nAyate|

23 for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,

dvAbhyAm ahaM sampIDye, dehavAsatyajanAya khrIShTena sahavAsAya cha mamAbhilASho bhavati yatastat sarvvottamaM|

24 and to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account,

kintu dehe mamAvasthityA yuShmAkam adhikaprayojanaM|

25 and being persuaded of this, I have known that I will remain and continue with you all, to your advancement and joy of the faith,

aham avasthAsye yuShmAbhiH sarvvaiH sArddham avasthitiM kariShye cha tayA cha vishvAse yuShmAkaM vR^iddhyAnandau janiShyete tadahaM nishchitaM jAnAmi|

26 that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my coming again to you.

tena cha matto. arthato yuShmatsamIpe mama punarupasthitatvAt yUyaM khrIShTena yIshunA bahutaram AhlAdaM lapsyadhve|

27 Only conduct yourselves worthily of the good news of the Christ, that, whether having come and seen you, whether being absent I may hear of the things concerning you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one soul, striving together for the faith of the good news,

yUyaM sAvadhAnA bhUtvA khrIShTasya susaMvAdasyopayuktam AchAraM kurudhvaM yato. ahaM yuShmAn upAgatya sAkShAt kurvvan kiM vA dUre tiShThan yuShmAkaM yAM vArttAM shrotum ichChAmi seyaM yUyam ekAtmAnastiShThatha, ekamanasA susaMvAdasambandhIyavishvAsasya pakShe yatadhve, vipakShaishcha kenApi prakAreNa na vyAkulIkriyadhva iti|

28 and not be terrified in anything by those opposing, which is indeed a token of destruction to them, and to you of salvation, and that from God;

tat teShAM vinAshasya lakShaNaM yuShmAka ncheshvaradattaM paritrANasya lakShaNaM bhaviShyati|

29 because to you it was granted, on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on behalf of Him;

yato yena yuShmAbhiH khrIShTe kevalavishvAsaH kriyate tannahi kintu tasya kR^ite klesho. api sahyate tAdR^isho varaH khrIShTasyAnurodhAd yuShmAbhiH prApi,

30 having the same conflict, such as you saw in me, and now hear of in me.

tasmAt mama yAdR^ishaM yuddhaM yuShmAbhiradarshi sAmprataM shrUyate cha tAdR^ishaM yuddhaM yuShmAkam api bhavati|
