Philippians 1
1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, —unto all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with overseers and ministers: —
U Paulo nu Timotheo abeshibha sha Yesu Kristi, hwa Bhaala bhabhabagulwe hushauli ya Yesu bhabhakhala hu Filipi, pandwemo na bheenyi na bheenyi adodo.
2 Favour unto you, and peace, from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.
Eneema ebhe hulimwe nu tengane waufuma hwa Ngulubhe uise witu nu hwa Yesu Kristi.
3 I am giving thanks unto my God, on occasion of all my remembrance of you,
Ehusalifya Ungulubhi wane shila pembizuha amwe mwenti.
4 At all times, in every supplication of mine, in behalf of you all, with joy, my supplication, making, —
Ensiku zyonti shila neputa embaputila, nu mwoyo gwane gusongwa nembaputila.
5 On account of your contribution unto the glad-message, from the first day until the present:
Endinensalifyo nyinji hushauli yelweteho mwibhangili ahwande isiku elyahwande paka sanyunu eshi.
6 Being persuaded of this very thing—that, he who hath begun in you a good work, will perfect it, until the day of Jesus Christ;
Endi nouhakika aje umwene yahandile embobho enyinza hulimwe abhahwendelele aimalezye mpaka isiku lya Yesu Kristi Ugosi wetu.
7 According as it is right in me to have this regard in behalf of you all, —because ye have had me in your hearts, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the glad-message, all of you being, joint partakers of my favour.
Sawa huliwe ahwiyomvweshinza maana embabheshele humwoyo gwane. Amwe mulibhashirika bhamwitu mu neema mufungwe wawe nana litanjilaga ibhangili.
8 For God is, my witness, how I long for you all in the tender affections of Christ Jesus.
Ungulubhi keti wane, shembasukwilwe amwe mwenti mulugano lwa muhati mwa Yesu Kristi.
9 And, this, I pray—that, your love, may be, yet more and more, pre-eminent in personal knowledge and all perception,
Awe elabha huje: ulugano lwenyu lwonjelele hahinji na munjeele zyonti.
10 To the end ye may be putting to the test the things that differ, in order that ye may be incorrupt and may give no occasion of stumbling, unto the day of Christ,
Elaabha kwa ajili yeli aje mubhe ne njeele eyzapime na salule amambo aminza tee. Nantele embalabhila huje mubhe bhinz bila ahwilonje embibhi humwoyo hwisikulya Yesu.
11 Filled with that fruit of righteousness which is through Jesus Christ unto the glory and praise of God.
Nantele Ungulubhi abhamemye enyinza mu moyo genyu gagafuma hwa Yesu Kristu, no tuntumune nsumbo zya Ngulubhi.
12 Howbeit, I am minded, brethren, that ye should be, getting to know, that, the things which relate unto myself, rather, unto an advancement of the glad-message, have fallen out,
Eshi bhaholo bhawe, ehwanza aje, mumanye huje, amambo gala gagfumiye hulimwe galikhonzizye ibangili aji libhalaje hwitagalila.
13 So that, my bonds, have become manifest in Christ, in the whole palace, and unto all the rest, —
Hashisho empinyo yaneya bhampinyile hushauli wa Yesu vimanyishe hwalinzi bha Gosi na hwa bhantu bhonti.
14 And [so that], the most of the brethren in the Lord, assured by my bonds, are becoming more abundantly bold to be fearlessly speaking the word of God: —
Na aholo bhinji hwa Ugosi U Yesu, hunongwa zye mpinyo zyane, abhantu bhalumbililaizi nkasaje nahamo nantele bila ahwogope.
15 Some, indeed, by reason of envy and strife—some, however, by reason of good will—are proclaiming, the Christ:
Lelo bhamo bhahulumbilila u Yesu na moyo amabhibhi nibho nantele bhamo bha alumbilila na moyo aminza.
16 These, indeed, out of love, knowing that, for the defence of the glad-message, I am set;
Bhaala bhabhahulumbilila uYesu hulugano bhamenye huje ane embehwelwe epa aje endyumile izu.
17 But, those, out of faction, are declaring, the Christ, not purely—supposing to rouse up, tribulation, with my bonds.
Nantele bhamo bhahulumbilila Ukristi hufaida yabho nu mwoyo ubhibhi. Bhaiga jee ane embapate amalabha nempengozya bhampinyile.
18 What then? That, in any way, whether in pretext, or in truth, Christ, is declared, and, in this, I rejoice—yea, and will rejoice!
Eshi? Sesaga, nkahushibhibhi au shinza, Kristi alumbililwa humadala gonti nanewayo esungwa. Pipo endimenye
19 For I know that, this, shall turn unto me for salvation—through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, —
eli huje lyaindetela ane huje eni gushu mufungwe wane. Elilyaifumila hunongwa yemputo zyenyu nu musaada gwa Umpepo wa Yesu Kristi.
20 According to my eager outlook and hope, that, in nothing, shall I be put to shame, but, with all freedom of speech, as always, now also, shall Christ be magnified in my body, whether through means of life, or of death.
Afuatane nensubhilo ezyelyoli huje ane sehailola ensoni. Naibha nelyoo lyonti. Neshi ensikuzyonti neshi, esubhilahuje, U Yesu aihwizuvya hubili uwawe, nkashele huwomi au hunfwa.
21 For, unto me—living, is Christ, and, dying, gain.
Huline ane afwe shinza nakhale huline yu Kristu.
22 But, if living in flesh, [is Christ], this, unto me, is a fruit of work, —and, what I shall choose, I make not known:
Lelo akhale nkahwinza hubeele ehuletela Ungulubhi embombo enyinza, mawyi sendimenye elyasalule.
23 I am held in constraint, however, by reason of the two, —having, the coveting, to be released, and to be with, Christ, for it were far better!
Maana ebhuhwa tee nensebho zibhili. Esungwa aguleshe ubili ogu embale akhale hwa Yesu eho hesamani tee tee.
24 But, to abide still in the flesh, is more needful for your sake;
Hwope asagale mubili ogu shinza hushauli yenyu.
25 And, of, this, being assured, know that I shall abide, —yea abide with you all, for your advancement, and the joy of your faith;
Afwatane aje endinouhakika nelii, emenye huje nahaisagala huje embanjese hwendelela akhale pandwimo namwe mwenti, hunongwaye itishilo lwinyu.
26 In order that, your matter of boasting, may be more abundant in Christ Jesus, regarding me, through my own presence again with you.
Neli libhelete uluseshelo ugusi hulimwe mwa Yesu Kristi, oluseshelo lwinyu lubhahwonjelele, ane abhe pandwemo namwe.
27 Only, in a manner worthy of the glad-message of the Christ, be using your citizenship; in order that—whether coming and seeing you, or being absent, I may hear of the things which concern you—that ye are standing fast in one spirit, with one soul, joining for the combat along with the faith of the glad-message;
Muhwanziwa ulwizyo lwenyu munjendo enyiza shalihwanza izulya Ngulubhi aje mubhalaje, bhombaji esho ili nkanayenza au nkasanayenza, ehonvwaje aje mwe meleye, muli numwoyo gumo na lwenyu izu nulweteshelo lwenyu pandwemo.
28 And not being affrighted in anything by the opposers, —the which, is, unto them, a token of destruction, although of your salvation, and this from God;
Musahagundushe ahawtu hohonti hahabhombwa na bhantu abhibhi bhenyu. Ezi mbonesya huje abhantu ebha bhananzi.
29 Because, unto you, hath it been given as a favour, in behalf of Christ, not only, on him, to believe, but also, in his behalf, to suffer: —
Lelo hulimwe mbowesyozye wokovu waufuma hwa Ngulubhi. Maana amwe mupewilwe kwa ajili ya Yesu se humwitishe wewe
30 Having, the same contest, which ye have seen in me, and now hear to be in me.
lelo na malabhi hwa mwene. Maana mulinibho lilalila neshi lya mwalilolile huline nantele mwonvwezye hujebado endinalyo weshi.
