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:

paulatīmathināmānau yīśukhrīṣṭasya dāsau philipinagarasthān khrīṣṭayīśōḥ sarvvān pavitralōkān samitēradhyakṣān paricārakāṁśca prati patraṁ likhataḥ|

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

asmākaṁ tāta īśvaraḥ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭaśca yuṣmabhyaṁ prasādasya śāntēśca bhōgaṁ dēyāstāṁ|

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

ahaṁ nirantaraṁ nijasarvvaprārthanāsu yuṣmākaṁ sarvvēṣāṁ kr̥tē sānandaṁ prārthanāṁ kurvvan

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

yati vārān yuṣmākaṁ smarāmi tati vārān ā prathamād adya yāvad

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

yuṣmākaṁ susaṁvādabhāgitvakāraṇād īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ vadāmi|

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,

yuṣmanmadhyē yēnōttamaṁ karmma karttum ārambhi tēnaiva yīśukhrīṣṭasya dinaṁ yāvat tat sādhayiṣyata ityasmin dr̥ḍhaviśvāsō mamāstē|

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.

yuṣmān sarvvān adhi mama tādr̥śō bhāvō yathārthō yatō'haṁ kārāvasthāyāṁ pratyuttarakaraṇē susaṁvādasya prāmāṇyakaraṇē ca yuṣmān sarvvān mayā sārddham ēkānugrahasya bhāginō matvā svahr̥dayē dhārayāmi|

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

aparam ahaṁ khrīṣṭayīśōḥ snēhavat snēhēna yuṣmān kīdr̥śaṁ kāṅkṣāmi tadadhīśvarō mama sākṣī vidyatē|

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

mayā yat prārthyatē tad idaṁ yuṣmākaṁ prēma nityaṁ vr̥ddhiṁ gatvā

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

jñānasya viśiṣṭānāṁ parīkṣikāyāśca sarvvavidhabuddhē rbāhulyaṁ phalatu,

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

khrīṣṭasya dinaṁ yāvad yuṣmākaṁ sāralyaṁ nirvighnatvañca bhavatu, īśvarasya gauravāya praśaṁsāyai ca yīśunā khrīṣṭēna puṇyaphalānāṁ pūrṇatā yuṣmabhyaṁ dīyatām iti|

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

hē bhrātaraḥ, māṁ prati yad yad ghaṭitaṁ tēna susaṁvādapracārasya bādhā nahi kintu vr̥ddhirēva jātā tad yuṣmān jñāpayituṁ kāmayē'haṁ|

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

aparam ahaṁ khrīṣṭasya kr̥tē baddhō'smīti rājapuryyām anyasthānēṣu ca sarvvēṣāṁ nikaṭē suspaṣṭam 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.

prabhusambandhīyā anēkē bhrātaraśca mama bandhanād āśvāsaṁ prāpya varddhamānēnōtsāhēna niḥkṣōbhaṁ kathāṁ pracārayanti|

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

kēcid dvēṣād virōdhāccāparē kēcicca sadbhāvāt khrīṣṭaṁ ghōṣayanti;

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

yē virōdhāt khrīṣṭaṁ ghōṣayanti tē pavitrabhāvāt tanna kurvvantō mama bandhanāni bahutaraklōśadāyīni karttum icchanti|

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

yē ca prēmnā ghōṣayanti tē susaṁvādasya prāmāṇyakaraṇē'haṁ niyuktō'smīti jñātvā 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.

kiṁ bahunā? kāpaṭyāt saralabhāvād vā bhavēt, yēna kēnacit prakārēṇa khrīṣṭasya ghōṣaṇā bhavatītyasmin aham ānandāmyānandiṣyāmi ca|

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,

yuṣmākaṁ prārthanayā yīśukhrīṣṭasyātmanaścōpakārēṇa tat mannistārajanakaṁ bhaviṣyatīti jānāmi|

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 ca mamākāṅkṣā pratyāśā ca siddhiṁ gamiṣyati phalatō'haṁ kēnāpi prakārēṇa na lajjiṣyē kintu gatē sarvvasmin kālē yadvat tadvad idānīmapi sampūrṇōtsāhadvārā mama śarīrēṇa khrīṣṭasya mahimā jīvanē maraṇē vā prakāśiṣyatē|

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

yatō mama jīvanaṁ khrīṣṭāya maraṇañca lābhāya|

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 śarīrē mayā jīvitavyaṁ tarhi tat karmmaphalaṁ phaliṣyati tasmāt kiṁ varitavyaṁ tanmayā na jñāyatē|

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

dvābhyām ahaṁ sampīḍyē, dēhavāsatyajanāya khrīṣṭēna sahavāsāya ca mamābhilāṣō bhavati yatastat sarvvōttamaṁ|

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

kintu dēhē mamāvasthityā yuṣmākam adhikaprayōjanaṁ|

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 avasthāsyē yuṣmābhiḥ sarvvaiḥ sārddham avasthitiṁ kariṣyē ca tayā ca viśvāsē yuṣmākaṁ vr̥ddhyānandau janiṣyētē tadahaṁ niścitaṁ jānāmi|

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

tēna ca mattō'rthatō yuṣmatsamīpē mama punarupasthitatvāt yūyaṁ khrīṣṭēna yīśunā bahutaram āhlādaṁ lapsyadhvē|

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,

yūyaṁ sāvadhānā bhūtvā khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādasyōpayuktam ācāraṁ kurudhvaṁ yatō'haṁ yuṣmān upāgatya sākṣāt kurvvan kiṁ vā dūrē tiṣṭhan yuṣmākaṁ yāṁ vārttāṁ śrōtum icchāmi sēyaṁ yūyam ēkātmānastiṣṭhatha, ēkamanasā susaṁvādasambandhīyaviśvāsasya pakṣē yatadhvē, vipakṣaiśca kēnāpi prakārēṇa na vyākulīkriyadhva 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 tēṣāṁ vināśasya lakṣaṇaṁ yuṣmākañcēśvaradattaṁ paritrāṇasya lakṣaṇaṁ bhaviṣyati|

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;

yatō yēna yuṣmābhiḥ khrīṣṭē kēvalaviśvāsaḥ kriyatē tannahi kintu tasya kr̥tē klēśō'pi sahyatē tādr̥śō varaḥ khrīṣṭasyānurōdhād yuṣmābhiḥ prāpi,

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

tasmāt mama yādr̥śaṁ yuddhaṁ yuṣmābhiradarśi sāmprataṁ śrūyatē ca tādr̥śaṁ yuddhaṁ yuṣmākam api bhavati|
