Philippians 4
1 My fellow believers, I love you, and I long for you. You make me happy [MTY], and I am (proud of/pleased with) you. Dear friends, on the basis [of all that I have told you], continue to believe firmly in the Lord doing what I have just taught you.
Kuite alowa ane, naize numusumbiye, naiulowa ningala ane. Imeki kisa mumukulu, unye ahumba alowa.
2 I urge [you(sg)], Euodia, and I urge [you(sg)], Syntyche, to again have a peaceful relationship with each other, [because you both have a relationship with] the Lord.
kuupepelya uewe Eudia, kupepelya ga nue Sintike, musushe ukupi nuaupolo wanyu. Kunsoko unyenye e miihi miabiili aimiungile mumukulu.
3 And, my faithful comrade/partner, I request that you [(sg)] help them [to again have a peaceful relationship with each other], because they have [faithfully proclaimed] the message [about Christ] together with me, [even though many people] have opposed us [(exc)]. They have faithfully proclaimed that message together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names [are] in the book [in which God has written the names of all those people who will] live [forever].
Kutai, mumupepelye gwa ung'wenso ituma milimo iane, muailye iasungi awa kunsoko aitumi palung'wi nunene muutamani inkani ninza niyamukulu kezekukoli nu Kelementi palung'we niitumi niangiza niamukulu, imani nao nainandikiwe mumbugulu naupanga.
4 [Because you have a relationship with] the Lord, always rejoice! I’m saying it again, rejoice!
Mumukulu mahiku ehi. Hangi kulunga, mulowe.
5 [Act in such a way that] everyone can know that you are gentle. The Lord is coming soon.
Upolo wanyu ulengekile kuantu ehi. Umukulu wahugeela.
6 Do not worry about anything. Instead, in every situation, pray [to God], tell him what you need, and ask him [to help you] [DOU]. Also thank [him for what he does for you].
Muleke kisumbula kulukani leji. Itumi imakani anyu ehi kunzila naulukuluku, kulompa nikusongelya. Nimaitaji anyu dengeke kung'wi Tunda.
7 As a result, God will enable you not to worry [about anything] [MTY] (OR, God will protect your minds [in every way]) [PRS]. [That is], he will cause you to have [inner] peace [because you have a relationship with] Christ Jesus. You will not be able to understand [PRS] [how you can be so peaceful in such difficult circumstances!]!
Upolo nuamukulugwa ninkulu kukila ulengi wehi, ikasunga ikulu nimasego anyu kuualigwa wang'wa Yesu Kilisto.
8 My fellow believers, there is one more thing I [want you to do]. Whatever is true, whatever is worthy of respect, whatever is right, whatever is morally pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is admirable, whatever is good, whatever [deserves] praise, those are the things that you should continually think about.
Impelo, aluna ane. Masigi lukulu imakani ehi nakete ita ukuligwi, ikulu welu, ulowa, naya nakete upikiligwi nuuza upolo, palung'wi naya natakewe kukuligwa.
9 Those things that I have taught you and that you have learned from me, those things that you have heard me [say] and that you have seen me [do], those are the things that you yourselves should continually do. As a result [of your doing those things], God, the one who [causes us to] have [inner] peace, will (be with/bless) you.
Muitumile inkani izi numumanyisigwi, nimusingilye nija naya naua nimumaine kung'wane nukung'wa Tata witu nua upolo ukutula nunyenye.
10 I rejoice greatly [and thank] the Lord because now, after some time, [by sending money to me] you have once again shown that you are concerned about me [EUP]. Indeed, you were concerned about me [all the time], but you had no opportunity [to show that you were concerned about me].
Nkete ulowa ukolo du kung'waanyu mumukulu, kunsoko unye migeela hangi isigo lakutula kung'wanyu nsoko aulompi wane hatize singamupatile ilyoma lakunzailya.
11 I am saying this not because I [am concerned that I] lack things [that I need]. In fact, I have learned to be content in whatever [situation] I am.
Singa kulunga ite inge mpate kintu kunsoko auula wane kunsoko auuta wanyu. Kunsoko nalenga kugomba muhali yehi.
12 [Specifically], I know how [to be content when] I do not have what I need, and I know how [to be content when] I have plenty. I have learned how [to be content] in any and every [situation] [DOU]. [Specifically], I have learned how [to be content when] I have enough to eat, and I have learned how [to be content when] I do not have enough to eat. I have learned how [to be content when] I have plenty [DOU] [of what I need], and I have learned [how to be content when] I lack [things].
Ningile ulikalo lakuhielwa nulikalo lakutula nimaintu ga mumazingila ehi aya unenifunzile kinkunku kukulya imahikutungilwe hangi nukulya imahiku naanzala, yaani nedu nukutula nuula.
13 I am able (to cope with/to handle) every situation because [Christ] gives me the strength to do that.
Nihumile kutuma aya kuaailigwa nung'wenso nuemupeza ingulu.
14 Nevertheless, you did very well by [helping me] (OR, [giving me money]) [EUP] while I have been suffering hardship.
Ata uu ainitumile iza kunzailya une munzago yane.
15 [My friends there at Philippi], you yourselves know that when I first [proclaimed] the message about Christ [to you], and then left there to go to Macedonia [province], you were the only group of believers [LIT] who [sent me] gifts [EUP] in order that I might [proclaim that message] to others just like I did for you.
Unye Afilipi mulinge kina ung'wandyo wankani ninza nainihegile ku Makedonia, kulite angilekeelo nailintindikie mumakani natakewe kupumya nukusingelya inge unyenye udu.
16 Even [when I was] in Thessalonica [city], you sent [money] [EUP] to me two different times [IDM] in order to [supply] what I needed.
Ganapaga nainkule Kutesalonike, unye aimuntumie umusaada singa kang'we kunsoko auula wane.
17 I say this, not because I desire that you give me money now. Instead, I desire that [God] will abundantly bless [MET] you as a result of [your helping me].
Muleke kugela kina kulompa musaada. Inge kulunga gwa mulije inkali nikete nsailo kung'wanyu.
18 But I have received a very generous [gift] [EUP] [from you], and [as a result], I have plenty. I have an abundant supply [of what I need because] I have received from Epaphroditus the money [EUP] that you [sent to me]. God considers that your gift is very acceptable, and he is very pleased with it. [Your gift is like] a nice-smelling sacrifice [MET].
Nasingilya maintu ehi, nitungele nizuigwe nimaintu idu, nsengeye imaintu anyu kupumiila kung'wa Epafuladito. Inge maintu maza akunyunkiila ihanganga imanukato. Nago mbekile nanso ehi isongeelyo namuloeye Itunda.
19 [Moreover], God, [whom] I [serve], has an unlimited supply [of everything that we(inc) need]. And as a result, because of your relationship with Christ Jesus, he will completely supply everything that you need.
Kunsoko nanso, Itunda wane ukumizulya uula wanyu kutula ugole nua ukulu wakwe mung'wa Yesu Kilisto.
Ilungile kung'wi Tunda nu Tata witu ukule ukulu wakale na kale hueli. (aiōn g165)
21 Greet [for me/us(exc)] all of God’s people [there, that is, all those who have a relationship with] Christ Jesus. The fellow believers who [serve God together] with me here send their greetings to you (OR, say they are thinking fondly of you).
Imelamu ane imupikile kila muhueli mung'wa Kilisto u Yesu. Alowa ninkoli nienso apa amupee milamu amulamukilye.
22 All of God’s people [here] send their greetings to you. Especially the [fellow believers who work] in the palace of the emperor send their greetings to you.
Ga niahueli ehi apa akumulamusha, palung'wi nawa niamunyumba ang'wa Kaisali.
23 My desire is [that our] Lord Jesus Christ [will continue to] act kindly toward you all [SYN].
Nitungele ukende wamukulu witu u Yesu Kilisto utule ukole munkolo yangu.
