< Philippians 1 >

1 Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
Paulo nu Timoteo itumi ang'wa Kilisto u Yesu, awaniabaguwe mung'wa Kilisto niakiie ku Filipi palung'wi neemili, agozi.
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ukende utule nunyenye nuupolo nuupumile kung'wi Tunda Tata nuitu nu Bwana witu u Yesu Kilisto.
3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
Numusongeye Itunda nuane anga numukimbuke unye mehi.
4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,
Kila ilompi lane ayi kunsoko anyu mehi kila nukulompa, ingi nilowa nukumulompela.
5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
Nkite masongelyo iduu kunsoko apalung'wi wanyu munkani ninza kupumiila luhiku la ng'wandyo sunga nilelo.
6 Being confident of this very thing, that he who hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
Nkete ikulukulu kina nuanso naiwanzilye umulimo nuuza mukatii anyu ukulongolya kuumala sunga uluhiku nulang'wa Bwana u Yesu Kilisto.
7 Even as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
Inge uu kung'waane kija ite kung'waanyu mehi kunsoko numuikile munkolo ane. Kuite unye matula meeane muukende mukitungo kane ukuueli nuulagile nuane munkoni ninza.
8 For God is my witness, how greatly I long after you all in the affection of Jesus Christ.
Itunda mukueli wane, ite nkite insula kunsoko anyu mihi ulowa nuawamukati ang'wa Kilisto u Yesu.
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
Haki kulompa kina: ulowa wanyu wongeeleke kukiila mahala nuulingi wehi.
10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;
Kulompa kunsoko ite mutule nuuhumi nuakugemeelya nukusagula imakani nibahu kukila kuite kumulompeela gwa ite mutule miaza shangaeze mukete kimeli kehi muluhiku iang'wa Kilisto.
11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
Kuitegwa mizuligwe ninkali niyatai niyigeela mung'wa Yesu Kilisto, kuukulu nikolyo lang'wi Tunda.
12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened to me have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel;
Itungile aluna ane, ndoilwe mulinge kina, imakani nakupila kung'wane naitumile nkani ninza ilongoleka ikulu.
13 So that my bonds in Christ are known in all the palace, and in all other places;
Yiyo ndogoilyo itungo yane mung'wa Kilisto, ulengekile kualindi niakulu ehi nukukila ung'wa muntu gwa.
14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, being more confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
Nialuna iidu mung'wa mukulu, kunsoko atungo yane, ikapeng'wa nukugema nukugema kutanantya kaze agila uwoa.
15 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife; and some also from good will:
Iauyaao amutanantya itai ukilisto kuumeli nuwilei, niitegwa niangeza kisego niza.
16 The one preach Christ from contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
Awa neemutanatya ukilisto kuulowa alingile kina mbikilwe apa kunsoko akukuila utanantyi.
17 But the other from love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
Ingi iidu akumutanatya ukilistokuing'wene kumasego nimabeisiga kina akuletekelya lwago iane mumunyololo ane.
18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I in this do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
Kululoo? Shangankee, ang'wi inzila ikatula ulugu ang'we tai, ukilisto ukutanantigwa kuite ndoeigwa hangi ndoilwe.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
Kunsoko ningile kina ite ikaleta kuluguilwa kung'wane, ikani ile likapumila kunsoko amalompi anyu nakuailya nung'waung'welu Yesu Kilisto.
20 According to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
Kimpyana nuisumbyeli wane nuakulukulu nitai nikina shangakutula niminyala ang'wi ugimya wakwe wehi, anganaiza mahiku nitungele, nsumbiiye kina Ukilisto ukunansulwa mumueli wane, agaitule numupanga ang'wi numushi.
21 For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
Kundogoilyo kung'wane unene kikie inge Kilisto nukusha inge nsailo.
22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I know not.
Kuite anganikie mumuieli yetuga nkali mumulimo wane, kululo shangaimine nileule nilakosagula.
23 For I am in a strait between the two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
Ndogoilo nisukung'wa ikulu nimasego aya na mweeli. Nkete nsula akuleka umweli nukutula palung'we nu Kilisto kintu nikiza inge kansailo ikulukulu.
24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
Ganiite kuaga mumiile uwu inge lukani lamuhimu ikulukulu kunsoko anyu.
25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
Kunsoko nkete ikulukulu migulya aile, ningile ninikasaga nukulongoleka kutula palung'wi nunyenye mihe kunsoko aunoneli nuwahueli wanyu.
26 That your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.
Nilikaleta uulowa wanyu nuukulu mung'wa Kilisto u Yesu kunsoko ane ikigeeleka, aukulu wane palung'wi nunyenye.
27 Only let your conduct be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
Mutakiwe kikie ulikalo lanyu mulugendo nuluza nulutakiwe munkani ninza niang'wa Kilisto, nije kina mimekile ikomu kunkolo ing; wi, muzikilya uhueli nuankani ninza kupalung'wi.
28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.
Hangi muleke kutumbwa nikintu kihe nulukutendwa nianya ulugu anyu ila kitalanyu ingi kilingasiilyo kaugunwa kupuma kung'wa Itunda.
29 For to you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
Kundogoilyo unyenye mikeigwe kunsoko ang'wa Kilisto, shangakumuhuela du, ila ganukigigwa ganung'wenso.
30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.
Kundogilyo mukete winyomi wuwowuwoo anga numuihangile kitalane hangi migule nukete ga milelo.
