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.
Bhaya bhatikondenebhane, amwe nembagene, mshiyenetaji yane. Emeleli sawasawa Hwagosi, enyi bhamanyanibhembagena.
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.
Ehubhozya Eudia, nantele ehubhozya awe Sintike, muwezye olwovwana olwinza kati yenyu. Afataneje amwe mwentibhabhele mwagenenogosi.
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].
Nantele embabhozye nantele amwemwabhomba mbombo bhamwetu mbhavwe ebha abhashe afataneje bhatumishe pandwemo nane. Ayanje izu lya Gosi natili no Kelementi, pandwemo na atumwa abhamwabho abhagosi abhene, amatawagao gandiwhemshitabu eshewhomi.
4 [Because you have a relationship with] the Lord, always rejoice! I’m saying it again, rejoice!
Whangosi ensiku zyonti. nantele embayanje, olusongwo.
5 [Act in such a way that] everyone can know that you are gentle. The Lord is coming soon.
Ohogowenyu bhubhonehaja hwa bhantu bhonti Ogosi alipepe.
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].
Ogande whianzye whijambo lyolyonti. Gamwhanza agenyu gabhonehanaje bha Ngolobhe.
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!]!
Olweteho lwa Gosi, lwalulilugosi ashile enjele zyonti ebhazije amoyo nensebho zyenyu olwa lwa Kristi o Yesu.
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.
Bhayu bhaholo bhane gasebhelelaji amambo gonti egelyoli, olwiho, ehaki, nowinza, uligano, nagala, aminza, gonti, galiminza, nagala, gagawanziwa, asalifye.
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.
Gabhombelelaji embombo gala gamwamanjilaga gamwaposheyega mwahovwaganagalagamwa wetu oweminza abhabhenamwe.
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].
Endinoluseshelo ogosi sana hulimwe na wagosi afwataneje amwe mbhonesezye eniya yahwihusizye hulimwe eyemahitaji gane. Lioli epoimande mwagene ansajile humaitajigane engawa semwayajile enafasi eyansaidile.
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.
Seyanga eshoaje ehwipe ahantu wavilavye hwanzaane ehwimazizye ayeehaliyonti.
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].
Emenye eshakhale nehali eyapongeshelwe naehali ya bhene vintu, humazingila gonti ega ane emanyie wakati owakute no wakatiowahweshe, yani vinji vyehwanziwa.
13 I am able (to cope with/to handle) every situation because [Christ] gives me the strength to do that.
Embwezizye abhombe ega ahwaviliwe nomwene yampela enguvu.
14 Nevertheless, you did very well by [helping me] (OR, [giving me money]) [EUP] while I have been suffering hardship.
Hata esho, mwabhombile shinza ashilikiane nane amalabhagane.
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.
Amwe mwa Filipi mmenye aje ahwandilekwizu nehasogoye hu Makedonia, nalimo ikanisa lyalya navwizye humambo gagahusu apeli inaposhele, amwe mbhene.
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.
Hata nehali hu thesolanike amwe mwantumie awavwohahinji humahitaji gane.
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].
Seyangaje ehwanza evyewene eyanga aji enyinza zyazileta efaida hulimwe.
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].
Eposheye evintu vyonti, neshi ememezewe ne vintu evyenje eviji. Emposheye evintu vyenyu afume wa Epafradito. Vintu vinza vyavinurishila shinza vyonti vihweteshelwa vyonti vye sadaka yehukhondela Ongolobhe.
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.
Kwesho Ongolobhe wane abhabha memie gamuwanza agenyu utajiri wautuntumi wakwe O Yesu Kristi.
Eshi hwa Ngolobhe nahwa Baba wetu obhenotuntumowawilana wila. Amina. (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).
Endamhozyau zifishile kila yaputa wa Kristi o Yesu aganwe bhendi nabho epa bhabhalamha.
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.
Nantele bhabhaputa bhontiepa bhabhalamha. Hasabhala ebheshikholo sha Kaisari.
23 My desire is [that our] Lord Jesus Christ [will continue to] act kindly toward you all [SYN].
Neshi eneema eyagosi wetu O Yesu Kristi ebhene na moyo genyu.
