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.
Barki ani me, ande mahem nihenu sa in zin nu kolimo, aburu arom nan ni ere num, unaa ugene me tonnon ni in nikara anyimo Ugomo - Asere. Anu hem aroni.
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.
In zin nu tiraAfodiya tari, inzin nu tiraSintiki tar, icukuno ana inde anyimo Ugomo - Asere.
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].
Ma aye mazoni, in kuri inzi nu tira ushi tari, aroni atanu ku karti Ukadura: nigo anyimo ubezizi tize ta Asere nigo nan kilimas nan nu kasu aroni am, ande sa tiza tiweme ti raa anyimo ukarda ivai.
4 [Because you have a relationship with] the Lord, always rejoice! I’m saying it again, rejoice!
Wuzan iraba irom anyimo Ugomo - Asere koya uwui. In kuri inzinu boo, wuna iriba irom.
5 [Act in such a way that] everyone can know that you are gentle. The Lord is coming soon.
Tonno vat anu wa iri utira iriba ishi me Ugomo - Asere maaye mama mu.
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].
Kati ibassa nan ire imum, anyo anime anyimo vat imum nan nigo in biringira, nan nu tira utari, nan ni iriba irom, tonno iriba irom ishi me icukuno unu rusa ahira a Asere.
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!]!
Iriba ilau ya Asere, U akki vat urusa abanga udi impi mu riba mushi me nan nu ubassa abnga ashi me anyimo Ugomo - Asere Yeso.
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.
Umasirka nihenu, vat imum be sa izi ikadura, vat imum sa ya bari anya utinanu, vat imum be sa izi uhem, vat imum sa izi lau, vat imum be sa ieze unu hem, vat imum be sa ieze in niza ni re-re, inki ni nonzo, wuza ubassa abanga azezsere ati mummu tigino me.
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.
Timummu tigino sa ya manzani ya kabani ya kunna ya ira aticukum tum, wazan timummu tiginome. Asere unu nya ticukum tire-re madi cukuno nigo nan shi.
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].
Ma wuza iriba irom kang anyimo Ugomo-Asere barki ana me ya gamirkan u inta um ahira ashi me. Ya inta me anyimo a kadura atiye ta dumo, abanna me daki ya kem umaa ubenki ba.
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.
Azo agi unyara um uni ba in zinu boo ani me. Barki in manza ticukum tini ce num anyimo vat imum be in rani.
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].
In rusi umaa be inde cukuno anyimo unyara, in kuri in rusi unaa be sa indi kem gbardang. Anyimo akoya unaa anyimo vat imum inmanza urusa u wuza be sa indi riigbardang nan nu cukuno ini komo, nan nu cukuno anyimo uronta in kuri in cukuno anyimo ubura.
13 I am able (to cope with/to handle) every situation because [Christ] gives me the strength to do that.
In dake in wusi imum vat ahira ameme sa mema nyinzam tize.
14 Nevertheless, you did very well by [helping me] (OR, [giving me money]) [EUP] while I have been suffering hardship.
Vat ani me, ya wuza umuta acce nan mi anyimo uzito.
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.
I kuri irusa, shi Afilibiyawa, unu guna utuba utize ta Asere, uganiya sa ma ceki umakidoniya, daki ma iri anu tarsa Asere be wa benkum anyimo abanga nyinza nan nu ukaba masi she wani cas.
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.
Nyani uganiya sa ma raa Utassalonika, ya tumi unu benki ukurzo imum be sa izi em iteki kani ka-re.
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].
Azo uguna in nyara imum be sa achi nyankum ini ba. Anyo ani me in nyara imum be sa idi en unu kinki anyimo ukere ushi me.
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].
Ma kaba vat timummu, in zin tini gbardang. A tiyon me. Ma kaba atari ti Abafaroditus timummu uhira ashi me. Imummu ironta unyunkuno, ukaba uwito unice uge besa Asere adi kabi.
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.
Asere am madi aminca vat timummu sa inyara azesere timummu gbardang sa inzin ira anyimo ani nonzo nu Ugomo-Asere Yeso.
Tonno ana me unonzo ucukuno wa Asere nan kacco uru uhana umara unee. (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).
Iso konde vi unu tarsa Asere anyimo Ugomo-Asere Yeso.
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.
Vat anu uhenusa wazi nigo nan mi wa iso shi. Vat anu tarsa Asere abanna me wazi nu iso ushi, anu age be sa wa raa akura kaisar cas.
23 My desire is [that our] Lord Jesus Christ [will continue to] act kindly toward you all [SYN].
Tonno uronta Ugomo-Asere Yeso Asere ucukuno nigo nan ni ibe ishi me. Icukuno anime.
