Philippians 1
1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Messiah Yeshua; To all the kadoshim in Messiah Yeshua who are at Philippi, with the overseers and servants:
Pauro naTimotio, varanda vaJesu Kristu, kuvatsvene vese muna Kristu Jesu vari paFiripi, pamwe nevatungamiriri nevadhikoni:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
Nyasha kwamuri, nerugare rwunobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu nekuna Ishe Jesu Kristu.
3 I thank my God whenever I remember you,
Ndinovonga Mwari wangu pakukurangarirai nguva dzese,
4 always in every prayer of mine for all of you, making my requests with joy,
nguva dzese pamunyengetero wangu wega-wega pamusoro penyu mese ndichiita munyengetero nemufaro,
5 for your partnership in the Good News from the first day until now;
nekuda kwekudyidzana kwenyu muevhangeri kubva zuva rekutanga kusvikira ikozvino;
6 being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Messiah Yeshua.
ndichivimba chinhu ichi, kuti wakatanga basa rakanaka mamuri, acharipedzisa kusvikira zuva raJesu Kristu;
7 It is even right for me to think this way about all of you, because I have you in my heart, because, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.
sezvazvakandinakira kufunga izvi pamusoro penyu mese, nokuti ndinemwi mumoyo zvekuti zvese muzvisungo zvangu nemukutavirira nekusimbisa kweevhangeri, imwi mese muri vagovani pamwe neni venyasha.
8 For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Messiah Yeshua.
Nokuti Mwari ndiye chapupu changu, kuti ndinokushuvai mese zvikuru sei muura hwaJesu Kristu.
9 This I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment;
Uye izvi ndinonyengetera, kuti rudo rwenyu rwurambe rwuchiwandisisa paruzivo nekunzwisisa kwese,
10 so that you may approve the things that are excellent; that you may be pure and blameless for the Day of Messiah;
kuti mutende zvinhu zvakanakisisa, kuti muve vakarurama nevasine mhosva, kusvikira zuva raKristu,
11 being filled with the fruit of righteousness, which are through Yeshua the Messiah, to the glory and praise of God.
makazadzwa nezvibereko zvekururama zvinouya naJesu Kristu, pakubwinya nekurumbidzwa kwaMwari.
12 Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News;
Zvino ndinoda kuti muzive, hama, kuti zvinhu zvakandiwira zvakaita zvikuru kufambira mberi kweevhangeri;
13 so that it became evident to the whole praetorian guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Messiah;
zvekuti zvisungo zvangu muna Kristu zvinoratidzwa pamuzinda wese nekuvamwe vese.
14 and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word without fear.
Nevazhinji vehama muna Ishe, vavimbiswa nezvisungo zvangu, vonyanya kutsunga kutaura shoko raMwari vasingatyi.
15 Some indeed preach Messiah even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.
Vamwe zvirokwazvo vanoparidza Kristu kunyange negodo negakava, nevamwewo nemoyo wakanaka;
16 The latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.
vamwe vanoparidza Kristu nenharo, kwete pauchokwadi, vachifunga kuti vawedzere marwadzo pazvisungo zvangu.
17 The former insincerely preach Messiah from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains.
Asi vamwe vanoita nerudo, vachiziva kuti ndakagadzirwa kutavirira evhangeri.
18 What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether out of false motives or in truth, Messiah is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.
Zvino chii? Kunyange zvakadaro kunzira dzese, kana mumano-mano kana muchokwadi, Kristu anoparidzwa, uye ndinofara mazviri, hongu ndichazofarazve.
19 For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance, through your petition and the supply of the Ruach of Yeshua the Messiah,
Nokuti ndinoziva kuti izvi zvichashandukira kwandiri kuva ruponeso kubudikidza nemunyengetero wenyu, nerubatsiro rweMweya waJesu Kristu,
20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Messiah will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
zvichienderana nekutarisira kwangu kukuru netariro, kuti handinganyadziswi pachinhu asi neushingi hwese samagariro uye ikozvino Kristu achakudzwa mumuviri wangu, kana neupenyu, kana nerufu.
21 For to me to live is Messiah, and to die is gain.
Nokuti kwandiri kurarama ndiKristu, uye kufa mubairo.
22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; yet I do not make known what I will choose.
Asi kana kurarama panyama chiri chibereko chebasa rangu; zvino zvandichasarudza handizivi.
23 But I am in a dilemma between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Messiah, which is far better.
Nokuti ndiri mukumanikidzwa pakati pezviviri, ndine chishuwo chekubva nekuva naKristu, zvinopfuurisa pakunaka;
24 Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.
asi kugara munyama kunonyanyisa kudiwa nekuda kwenyu.
25 And since I am persuaded of this, I know that I will remain and continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,
Zvino ndine chivimbo ichi, ndinoziva kuti ndichagara, ndicharamba ndigere nemwi mese, pakupfuurira kwenyu mberi, uye mufaro werutendo,
26 that your rejoicing may abound in Messiah Yeshua in me through my presence with you again.
kuti kuzvirumbidza kwenyu kuwande muna Kristu Jesu pamusoro pangu kubudikidza nekuvapo kwangu kwamurizve.
27 Only let your manner of life be worthy of the Good News of Messiah, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;
Chete fambai zvakafanira evhangeri yaKristu, kuti kunyange ndikauya ndikakuonai, kunyange kusavapo, ndinzwe nyaya dzenyu kuti mumire nesimba mumweya umwe, nemoyo umwe muchirwira pamwe rutendo rweevhangeri;
28 and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.
uye musingatyityidzirwi nevanopikisa pachinhu chimwe; ndicho chiratidzo chekuparadzwa kwavari, asi kwamuri cheruponeso, uye icho chinobva kuna Mwari.
29 Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Messiah, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,
Nokuti kwamuri kwakapiwa pachena pachinzvimbo chaKristu, kwete kutenda kwaari kwega, asi kumutambudzikirawo;
30 having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear is in me.
mune kurwa kumweko sekwamakaona mandiri, nekunzwa ikozvino mandiri.
