Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me, and is a safeguard for you.
Kwa kongelera, walongu wayangu, mnemeleri kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Mtuwa. Hapeni ntoki kuwuyira galii ganembiti kala palupaga palii, toziya hagawawongeleri ulolera.
2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.
Mulisheli na wantu yawatenda ukondola, awa wawera gambira wang'ang'a, yawalazimisha wantu wingiziwi jandu.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;
Wantu yawayingiziwa jandu nakaka ndo weni ndiri, kumbiti ndo twenga yatumguwira Mlungu kupitira Rohu gwakuwi, na kunemelera kwa kulikolerana pamuhera na Yesu Kristu. Vitwatira vya kunja hapeni tuvisheri.
4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:
Neni vilaa menwezi kulitumbira vitwatira avi vya nshimba, handa kwana muntu kaweza kuvitumbira vitwatira avi vya nshimba, neni nana toziya nkulu munshimba kugahola aga,
5 circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;
neni wanyingiziya jandu lishaka lya nane pa kuyiwuka kwangu, neni muntu gwa isi ya Israeli na likabila lya Benjamini na Mwebraniya nakaka. Kugatenda malagaliru, neni nweriti Mfalisayu,
6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
na neni nweriti na gangamalu nentu ata nushipunjiti shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu. Kuusu uheri yawuwoneka kwa kugajimira malagaliru, neni nweriti ndiri na shidoda shoseri shilii.
7 However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ.
Kumbiti goseri aga geni menwezi kugahola kuwera ndo mota, nugawona kuwera ndo shintu ndiri kwajili ya Kristu.
8 More than that, I count all things to be a loss compared to the far greater value of knowing Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ
Yina aga ndiri, ira mona kila shintu shiwera shintu ndiri toziya ya shitwatila shiherepa nentu, yaani kummana Kristu Yesu Mtuwa gwangu. Toziya yakuwi njimira kwasira kutali kila shintu, nugawona goseri aga ndo shinyankali su numupati Kristu
9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;
na kulikolela nayu nakamu. Neni nema kayi unakaka ulawira na kulijimira lilagaliru. Vinu nanawu uheri ulii yawuwoneka mukumjimira Kristu, uheri yawulawa kwa Mlungu na yawulitumbira njimiru.
10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;
Shanfira ndo kummana Kristu na kwona makakala ga uzyuka wakuwi, kuyitenda ndabiku yakuwi na kulifana nayu mukuhowa kwakuwi,
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
ndo shintu sha matumbiru handa neni vilaa hanzukisiwi.
12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
Hapeni nulitumbi handa mpata kala ama nweriti nahera vidoda. Nankwendereya kushashatika kupata lifupu lyeni Kristu Yesu kanupiti kala neni.
13 Brothers, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and reaching forward to the things which are ahead,
Nakaka walongu wangu hola ndiri kuwera mpatiti kala lifupu ali. Kumbiti shitwatila shimu nankutenda, nankugawaluwa galii gapititi kala na kutenda gangamalu kugalola nweri galii ga kulongolu.
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Su nankutugira mpaka upeleru wa mashindanu, su mpati lifupu ali lyeni ndo ukomu wa mashaka goseri awu ndo ushemi wa Mlungu kwa njira ya Kristu Yesu.
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.
Twenga twawoseri tukamaliti mumakaliru ga Kristu tufiruwa kuwera na ugolokeru ulaa awu. Kumbiti handa wamu wenu walihola ntambu yimonga, su Mlungu hakakulanguziyeni shitwatila ashi.
16 Nevertheless, to what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, being of the same mind.
Kwa vyoseri tusegeleri kulongolu munjira iraa ilii yatuyifata mpaka vinu.
17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
Walongu wangu, mwendereyi kufata mfanu gwangu. Tuwapanani mfanu muheri na hangu muwapikaniri walii yawafata mfanu gwetu.
18 For many, of whom I have often told you, and now tell you with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ,
Nuwagambireni kala shitwatila ashi mala zivuwa na vinu mbuya kayi kwa masozi, wantu wavuwa walikala gambira wadoda kwa kuhowa kwa Yesu Kristu mlupingika.
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
Upeleru wawu ndo kuharabisiwa, mata zyawu zya nshimba ndo Mlungu gwawu, wankuwona ukwisa muvitwatira vyawu vya soni, waliholera hera vitwatira vya muisi.
20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;
Kumbiti twenga twa wantu wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu na twankulolera kwa mata nkulu, mponiziya kizi kulawa kumpindi, Mtuwa Yesu Kristu.
21 who will transform our lowly body into the likeness of his glorious body, according to the power by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.
Yomberi hakazigalambuziyi nshimba zyetu ziyonda na kutenda zilifani na nshimba yakuwi nanagala, kwa makakala galii geni nakaka kaweza kuvitula vintu vyoseri pasi pa ukolamlima wakuwi.
