Philippians 2
1 If, then, any exhortation [is] in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any yearnings and mercies,
Ni zeza kuti kube ni kukozwa mwa Keresite. Ni zeza kuti kwina kuhumbulizwa mwilato lyakwe, Ni zeza kuti kwina kuhalinsana hamwina koluhuho. Ni zeza kuti kwina kubabalela kwense ni ka mukekechima.
2 fulfill my joy, that you may mind the same thing—having the same love—of one soul—minding the one thing,
Muni sangise choku nahana buswana, ni mwina ilato liswana, ni mu wondinsene muluhuho, ni mwina ka kuzeza kumwina.
3 nothing in rivalry or vainglory, but in humility of mind counting one another more excellent than yourselves—
Sanzi u pangi chimwi kuya che inkulo imbi kamba kuvula ingana ka kusa hupula bamwi. Imi bulyo cho livika hansi uhinde kuti bamwi vaku zamba.
4 do not each look to your own, but each also to the things of others.
Siye kwikala no saka zako bulyo, imi usake ni zi bamwi.
5 For let this mind be in you that [is] also in Christ Jesus,
Muzeze mwinzila yabena nayo Jesu Keresite.
6 who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not something to be seized to be equal to God,
Abena muchibumbantu che Reeza, kono kena abahindi kuti ulikana ni Ireeza chachintu chente a tundamene.
7 but emptied Himself, having taken the form of a servant, having been made in the likeness of men,
Imi bulyo, aba lizuuli bu Mulimu. Abezi muchizimo cho buhikana. Cho hinda mazimo abuntu. Cho wanika muchiyemo chomuntu.
8 and having been found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself, having become obedient to death—even death of a cross,
Cho likokobeza ni kuli kuteka konji ifu, ifu ha chifapano.
9 for this reason, also, God highly exalted Him, and gave to Him a Name that [is] above every name,
Cho bulyo Ireeza na munyamuna kamayemo a hitilize. Imi ni chamuha izina lihanzi kumazina onse.
10 that in the Name of Jesus every knee may bow—of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth—
Aba tendi bulyo kuti mwizina lya Jesu izwii ne zwii kali fukame, mazwii abena mwiwulu nibena hansi ni mwikonde lya hansi.
11 and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ [is] LORD, to the glory of God the Father.
Linu aba tendi bulyo chokuti indimi zonse kazi lyatilize kuti Jesu Keresite nji Simwine, kenkanya ye Reeza Tayo.
12 So that, my beloved, as you always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,
Linu, inwe banisuni cha kuhitiliza, sina inako yonse muku kuteka, insinyi feela henti nina kwateni, kono mane hanu nanga chinisakwina, mu belekele ku hazwa kwenu ka kutiya ni kunjanja.
13 for it is God who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
Kakuti nji Reeza u kwete ku beleka nenwe chentato ya kutenda kakusunana kwakwe.
14 Do all things without murmurings and deliberations,
Mu tende zintu zonse ka kusabilela ni ku sakanana.
15 that you may become blameless and pure children of God, unblemished in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as luminaries in the world,
Mu chite mweyo inzila kuti muwole kuba basa nyazahele ni balukite, bana be Reeza basena katowati. Mupange mweyo inzila njikuti mubelenge siina mamuni a munkanda, murahi ulyangene unyimitwe.
16 holding forth the word of life, for rejoicing to me in regard to [the] Day of Christ, that I did not run in vain, nor did I labor in vain;
Ku kwatilila chenguzu kwinzwi lya buhalo kokuti mube ni baka ninkanya mwizuba lya Keresite. Linu aho kani zibe kuti kena ni batiyi lubilo lwamuhuho kapa kubelekela waluka.
17 but if I also am poured forth on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and am glad with you all,
Kono ni haike kanibe ni newo ichunkwa ha chitabelo ni nsebelezo ye ntumelo yenu, muni nyakalale, ni ku nyakalala nanwe mubonse.
18 because of this you also rejoice and are glad with me.
Kamukwa uswana nanwe munyakalale, ni kunyakalala name.
19 And I hope, in the Lord Jesus, to send Timotheus to you quickly, that I also may be of good spirit, having known the things concerning you,
Kono ni sepa ka Simwine Jesu kutumina Timoteya kwenu kapili, chokuti ni susumezwe chokwiziba zintu zenu.
20 for I have no one like-minded, who will sincerely care for the things concerning you,
Imi kakwina zumwi uswana naye kumikwa, yomi shilila inkulo cha kwizula.
21 for the whole seek their own things, not the things of Christ Jesus,
Kakuti bonse basaka bulyo zibatabisa, insinyi zintu za Jesu Keresite.
22 and you know his proof, that as a child [serves] a father, he served with me in regard to the good news;
Kono mwizi kuti uyelela chenteko, siina mwana yo tendela beesi, imi aba tendi name mwi Ivangeli.
23 I indeed hope to send him, when I may see through the things concerning me—immediately;
Ni sepa ku mutumina hente ni ni bone kuti zintu zi yenda hande kwangu.
24 and I trust in the LORD that I will also come quickly myself.
Kono nina ni nsepo kwa Simwine kuti ime nimwine muni bole kapili.
25 And I thought [it] necessary to send to you Epaphroditus—my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, and your apostle and servant to my need,
Kono ni zeza kuti chisakahala ku tumina Epafrodite abole uko kwenu. Mwanawaswisu kuninangu, uni tenda naye, iisole kuninangu, mutumiwa wenu hape muhikana wa zinisuni zonse.
26 seeing he was longing after you all, and in heaviness, because you heard that he ailed,
Njikuti aba wililwe chenzila chaku chiswa kukando, imi u nyolelwe kuba nanwe mubonse, kono muba zuwi kuti abali kulwala.
27 for he also ailed near to death, but God dealt kindly with him, and not with him only, but also with me, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.
Ikumbya abali kulwala zeniti mane sake nafwe. Kono Ireeza chaba ninse kwali, iinsinyi kwali yeyena, kono mane ni kwangu bulyo, kakuti sanzi nibi mumaswabi hamwi ni hamwi hape.
28 The more eagerly, therefore, I sent him, that having seen him again you may rejoice, and I may be less sorrowful;
Chobulyo ni nahahulu insusumezo ya kumu tumina, mukuti hente ni mumu bome ni musangalale ili kuti name ni nibe yosumunukite mukutongoka kwangu.
29 receive him, therefore, in the LORD, with all joy, and hold such in honor,
Mutambule Epafrodite ka Simwine mukusanga konse ka kumaniniza. Mukuteke bantu ba swana naye.
30 because on account of the work of the Christ he drew near to death, having hazarded life that he might fill up your deficiency of service to me.
Chebaka lya mitendo ya Keresite chigi chaba chunine kwifu. Aba biki buhalo bwakwe mubukabo kuti ani tendele mane ni kwizuziliza chi musena mubali kuwola kuni pangila.
