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:
Nene Pauli na Timoti vatumisi va Yesu Kilisitu. Tikuvayandikila nyenye vandu va Chapanga mwemuvi ku Filipi mwemuwungini na Kilisitu Yesu, pamonga na vachilongosi na vatangatila va msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu Yesu.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Tikuvaganila uteke na ubwina kuhuma kwa Chapanga kwa Chapanga Dadi witu na Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu.
3 I give thanks to my God on all the remembrance of you,
Lukumbi lwoha nikumsengusa Chapanga penikuvakumbuka.
4 always, in every supplication of mine for you all, with joy making the supplication,
Lukumbi lwoha penikuvayupila mwavoha kwa Chapanga ndi nikuvayupila kwa luheku,
5 for your contribution to the good news from the first day until now,
ndava ya kuwungana na nene mulihengu la kuvakokosela vandu Lilovi la Bwina kuhumila kutumbula hati lelu.
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,
Hinu nimanya chakaka kuvya Chapanga mweatumbwili lihengu lenili labwina mumitima yinu, yati ayiyendeleza mbaka mu ligono lila la kubwela kavili Yesu Kilisitu.
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.
Ndi chabwina nene kuvaholalela nyenye ndava nyenye muvi mugati ya mutima wangu. Ndava muni mwavoha nyenye muhanganila na nene muubwina weatipeli Chapanga mukukokosa na kulikengelela Lilovi la Bwina, hinu penivili mchifungu na kutumbula penalekekiswi.
8 For God is my witness, how I long for you all with [the] yearnings of Jesus Christ,
Chapanga amanyili kuvya nijova chakaka pala penijova muuganu kwa mtima wangu woha, kwa uganu wewihuma kwa Kilisitu Yesu.
9 and this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge, and all discernment,
Nikumuyupa Chapanga uganu winu uyonjokesa neju na neju pamonga na kuumanya uchakaka na luhala lwoha,
10 for your proving the things that differ, that you may be pure and offenseless—to [the] Day of Christ,
muhotola kuhagula lijambu lelivi labwina neju. Penapo ndi yati mwivya vabwina changali uhakau wowoha pa ligono la kuwuya Kilisitu.
11 being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that [is] through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
Wumi winu yati wimemeswa mambu gala geakugagana Chapanga mujila ya Kilisitu Yesu ndu ndava ya ukulu wa Chapanga na muni vandu vamtopesa na kumulumba Chapanga.
12 And I intend you to know, brothers, that the things concerning me, rather have come to an advancement of the good news,
Valongo vangu, nigana mmanya kuvya mambu goha geganikolili gatangatili neju kudandasa Lilovi la Bwina.
13 so that my bonds have become evident in Christ in the whole Praetorium, and to all the other places,
Ndava ya genago valonda voha va nyumba ya nkosi pamonga na vangi voha penapa vimanya kuvya nivii muchifungu ndava nene nikumhengela Kilisitu.
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.
Ndava ya kukungiwa muchifungu ndi kuvakitili valongo vamahele vahotola kuyima cha kusindimala kwa sadika kwa Bambu, hati vahotola kukokosa ujumbi wa Chapanga changali wogohi.
15 Certain, indeed, even through envy and contention, and certain also through goodwill, preach the Christ;
Chakaka vandu vangi vakumkokosa Kilisitu ndava vana wihu na luhonda, nambu vangi vakokosa Lilovi la Bwina la Yesu Kilisitu kwa mtima wabwina na kugana kuvatangatila vandu.
16 one, indeed, of rivalry proclaims the Christ, not purely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds,
Vandu ava vihenga naha kwa mtima wa uganu muni vamanyili kuvya Chapanga anipeli lihengu lenili la kuyikengelela Lilovi la Bwina.
17 and the other out of love, having known that I am set for defense of the good news:
Nambu vangi vala vakulikokosa Lilovi la Kilisitu kwa mhutanu nambu lepi kwa mtima wa bwina. Viholalela mukukita genago vakuniyonjokesela mang'ahiso gangu muchifungu.
18 what then? In every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed—and I rejoice in this, indeed, and will rejoice.
Hinu chindu lepi! Nene niheka ngati vandu vakumkokosa Kilisitu kwa kila njila, yivya kwa mtima wabwina amala kwa mtima uhakau, kavili yati niyendelela kuheka.
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,
Ndi nimanyili kuvya chamukuniyupila na mu njila ya utangatila wa Mpungu wa Yesu Kilisitu, goha geganikolili nene yati nihuma muchifungu.
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,
Nihuvalila kwa mnogo uvaha na kuhuvalila ndi kuvya katu yati nikola lepi soni kwa kuleka kuhenga gegiganikiwa ndava ya Yesu Kilisitu. Ngati chanahengili kadeni. Na hinu nisadika wumi wangu yati ukumpela utopesa Kilisitu nivya mumi amala nifwili.
21 for to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.
Kwa nene kuvya mumi ndi kumuhengela Kilisitu hati kufwa ndi chindu chabwina neju kwangu.
22 And if to live in the flesh [is] to me a fruit of work, then what will I choose? I do not know;
Nambu ngati mukutama yati nihotola kuhenga lihengu la kuvatangatila vandu vangi. Hinu nimanyili lepi? Nihagula loki!
23 for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,
Nihutwa kuni na kuni mambu aga gavili. Ninogela kuuleka mulima uwu muni nihambayi kutama pamonga na Kilisitu, lijambu lelivii labwina neju,
24 and to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account,
nambu chabwina neju kwinu nyenye ngati niyendalili kutama.
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,
Namwene nimanyili chakaka kuvya yati niyendelela kutama na nyenye voha muni muvatangatila muusadika na muvya na luheku musadika yeniyo,
26 that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my coming again to you.
Hinu penivya na nyenye kavili, yati mwivya na chindu cha kumekela neju ndava yangu muwumi wa kuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu.
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,
Hinu, lijambu leliganikiwa ndi kuvya matendu ginu gavyai ngati cheligana Lilovi la Bwina la Kilisitu muni ngati nihotwili kuwuya kwinu amala nakuhotola, muni nipata kuyuwana kuvya musindimili kuyima muvi mtima umonga na mtovana ngondo kwa mtima umonga. Ndava ya kuyikengelela sadika yeyiletwa na Lilovi la Bwina.
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;
Mkotoka kuvayogopa vamakoko vinu, nambu mvya vakekesi magono goha, na yeniyo yikuvalangisa kuvya vene yati vihoto lepi, nambu nyenye mukuvahotola muni Chapanga mwene ndi mweakuvapela uhotola.
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;
Muni nyenye mudinduliwi mlyangu wa kumhengela Kilisitu lepi kumsadika ndu, nambu mewa mukung'aiswa ndava ya mwene.
30 having the same conflict, such as you saw in me, and now hear of in me.
Hinu mwihotola kuvya pamonga na nene mukutovana ngondo. Ngondo yeniyi ndi yila yemwalolili yanatovana kadeni pala nakona nitovana hinu ngati chemwiyuwana.
