Philippians 2

1 If there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any comfort from his love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if there are any tender mercies and compassions,

Christ sung ah thapiakna, itna i henepna, Thaa i ki pawlkhopna, note sung ah hesuakna te khatpo a omle,

2 then make my joy full by thinking alike, having the same love, being united in spirit, and having the same purpose.

Note in thinsung le itna a kibang nei in, thu kisi in om vun a, ka lungdamna hong kicingsak tavun.

3 Do nothing out of selfishness or empty conceit. Instead with humility consider others better than yourselves.

Ki enna, a hibale, phattuamna om ngawl ki phatsakna taw bangma vawt heak vun; ahihang thinsung ki niamkhiatna taw mi khatsim in ngualdang te sia amate sang a phazaw in ngaisun tahen.

4 Each of you should take care not only for your own needs, but also for the needs of others.

Mi khatsim in ama atu bek en ngawl in, ngualdang atu zong en tahen.

5 You should have the same attitude toward one another as was in Christ Jesus.

Christ Jesus i thinsung bang note sung ah zong om tahen:

6 He existed in the form of God, but he did not consider his equality with God as something to hold on to.

Christ in Pathian pianzia nei hi, ahihang Pathian taw a ki kim tu in suam tu ngaisun ngawl hi:

7 Instead, he emptied himself by taking the form of a servant, and he was born in the likeness of men.

Ahihang Ama le Ama minthanna nei ngawl in kivawt hi, taciang sila pianzia la a, mihing bang in hong piang hi:

8 He humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, even death of a cross!

Mihing bang in hong om a, ama le ama ki niamkhiak in, thinglamte tung dong ah hong thi hi.

9 Therefore God also highly exalted him. He gave him the name that is above every name.

Tua ahikom Pathian in a sang mama in lamsang hi, taciang Ama sia min theampo sung pan a sangbel min pia hi:

10 He did this so that in the name of Jesus every knee should bend, the knees of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth.

Tabang in vantung a om te ahizong, leitung a om te ahizong, lei nuai a om te ahizong, tua Jesus min sia khup theampo khupdin tu uh a;

11 He did this so that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Taciang in Jesus Christ sia Topa hi, ci in Pa Pathian minthanna tu in leii theampo in pualak tu hi.

12 So then, my beloved, as you always obey, not only in my presence but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

Tua ahikom ka it te awng, note tatsat ngawl in thu na nit uh bangma in, keima ka om ciang bek hi ngawl in, tu in ka om ngawl ciang zong thu ni seseam in, na nei uh ngupna sia lau le liing kawm in zomsuak tavun.

13 For it is God who is working in you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

Banghangziam cile ama lungkimna pha sia na sepnop natu uh le na sep thei natu uh in note sung ah na a seam sia Pathian a hihi.

14 Do all things without complaining or arguing.

Na theampo sia phun ngawl le ki nial ngawl in seam tavun:

15 Act in this way so that you may become blameless and honest, children of God without blemish. Act in this way so that you may shine as lights in the world, in the middle of a crooked and depraved generation.

Tabang in tote sia paubang ngawl le lau ngawl, ki tei kul ngawl Pathian tate na hi tu uh a, thimthel le lampial minam te sung leitung ah khuavak bang in na taang tu uh hi;

16 Hold tightly to the word of life so that I may have reason to glory on the day of Christ. For then I will know that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

Nuntakna thu kiptak in len vun; tabang in mannung ngawl in tai le mannung ngawl in naseam ka hi batu a, Christ ni ciang in ka ki suangtak thei tu hi.

17 But even if I am being poured out as an offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.

Taciang na upna atu in biakpiakna le piakna sung ah a ki pia tu ka hile, ka lungdam hi, taciang note theampo taw ka lungdam khawm tu hi.

18 In the same manner you also should be glad and rejoice with me.

Tasia bangma in note zong na lung uh dam hi, taciang keima taw lungdam ta vun.

19 But I have hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I may also be encouraged when I know the things about you.

Ahihang Topa Jesus muanna taw a hai ngawl in Timothy sia note kung ah kong paisak tu hi, tabang in note i dinmun ka heak ciang in keima zong ka angtang tu hi.

20 For I have no one else with his same attitude, who is truly anxious for you.

Banghangziam cile keima thinsung bang in note i na dinmun uh hong deisak kuama a om bua hi.

21 For they all seek their own interests, not the things of Jesus Christ.

Banghangziam cile mi theampo in Jesus Christ taw kisai te zong ngawl in, amate taw kisai teng bek zong uh hi.

22 But you know his worth, because as a child serves his father, so he served with me in the gospel.

Ahihang Timothy sia tapa le pa bang in lungdamna thupha taw Pathian na seam hi, ci in tetti hong lakna na he uh hi.

23 So I hope to send him as soon as I see how things will go with me.

Tua ahikom keima pai zia tu ka heakpo ciang in, ama hongpaisak pai tu in lametna ka nei hi.

24 But I am confident in the Lord that I myself will also come soon.

Ahihang Topa muang in keima mama zong a hai ngawl in kongpai tu hi.

25 But I think it is necessary to send Epaphroditus back to you. He is my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and servant for my needs.

Taciang ka suapui pa le ka nasep pui, ka ngalkap seppui, ahizong note atu thupuak le ka kisapna sung ah hong khoi Epaphroditus sia note kung ah kongpaisak kul tu hi, ci ka ngaisun hi.

26 For he was very distressed, and he longed to be with you all, because you heard that he was sick.

Banghangziam cile ama in note theampo hong phawk hi, taciang ama sia thinngimna taw kidim hi, banghangziam cile ama sia a cina hi, ci na za zo uh hi.

27 For indeed he was so sick that he almost died. But God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but also on me, so that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

Banghangziam cile ama thidektak in a cina hi: ahihang Pathian in a tung ah hesuakna nei hi; ama tung bek hi ngawl in, keima i khuangaina tung ah a dang khuangaina ka nei thua ngawl natu in, keima tung zong hesuakna hong nei hi.

28 So it is all the more eagerly that I am sending him, so that when you see him again you may rejoice, and I can be free from anxiety.

Tua ahikom deisakna tak taw note kung ah hongpaisak khi hi, tabang in ama na mu kik uh ciang in, note na lung uh dam tu a, keima zong ka khuangaina pan ka suakta tu hi.

29 Welcome Epaphroditus in the Lord with all joy. Honor people like him.

Tua ahikom Topa sung ah ama sia angtan na theampo taw na sang vun; taciang tabang te upat in na pok tavun:

30 For it was for the work of Christ that he came near death. He risked his life to serve me and fill up what you could not do in service to me.

Banghangziam cile keima nong khoi tu uh a kisam lai te kicingsak tu in, a nuntakna zong haza ngawl a, Christ atu a nasepna hu in ama thi dektak liang hi.
