Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy [our] brother, to Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellow-laborer,
Paul lokv, Jisu Kristo lvgabv pachipatwk doonv, okv ngonugv achiboru Timoti lokv— Ngonugv ajin okv ribamdakbam nam ajin Pilemon,
2 And to [our] beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house:
okv nonugv naam lo gvrja ribusila kaarwksinam vdw, okv ngonugv anyibormv Appia, okv ngonu ribamnam ajin sipai Archippu:
3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ngonugv Pwknvyarnv Abu okv Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv anyuaya okv sarsopoyo ngv nonu gvlo jilwk yilaka.
4 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
Achiboru Pilemon, ngo aludwkibv, noogv amin am laala okv ngoogv Pwknvyarnv gvlo umbonyikv vla kumlwk jidunv.
5 Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast towards the Lord Jesus, and towards all saints;
Vkvlgabv nonu vdwgv Pwknvyarnv gv nyi mvnwng nga pakjinam lvgabv okv Jisu lo nonugv mvngjwngnam am ngo tvvpa doodunv.
6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
Ngonugv kristo gvlo turnam am akin dula kumbamjobam dubv boktalwknam sum mvngjwngnv gobv ridula arwngrungbv tvvpikaapi lakdu bv ngo kumnam si kumdunv.
7 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
Noogv paknamv, ayanam achiboru, ngo gvlo kairungnv himpu am okv mingtvmirunam am achialvbv laalwk jidu! no Pwknvyarnv gv nyi mvnwng gv haapok ka habiatata motoku.
8 Wherefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient.
Vkvlvkwngbv ngo chvrv rungdubv, kristo lo noogv achiboru bv rinam lokv, ogu risvdw ngo nam orto jila dunv.
9 Yet for love's sake I rather beseech [thee], being such one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
Vbvrijvka ogulvgavbolo ngo nam pakdunv, nam ngo lvbula minam yangv si hv alvyagobo mvngdunv. Vbvrijvka Paul ngo svbv ridu, Jisu kristo gv nyitampingko bv ridu, okv vjvka ninyigv amin lvgabv pachipatwk lo doodunv.
10 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
Vkvlvgabv onesimus gv peelvbv ngo nam lvbula mindunv, ngoogv atunvgv kuunyilo bv kristo lo ridunv; pachipatwk arwng lo doori hoka ngo ninyigv dowjwklo gv abu bv ripv kunv.
11 Who in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
Alu gulo no lvgabv oguguchin richindakchin mato, vbvritola vjak alv rungbv rilakvnglak duku no gvbvka okv ngo gvbvka anyi gvbv alvjvnv gobv riduku.
12 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, my own bowels:
Vjak ninyia lvkodv no gvlo ngo vngkur mogv ikunv okv ngoogv haapok vka ninyigv lvkobv vngming gvvdunv.
13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel:
Ngoogv lvkobv ninyia so doomu nwngto nvi, Gamlv gv lvgalo ngoogv pachipatwk doi dvdv so, vkvlvgavbolo noogv mooku hoka ninyia modurvngdur yadubv.
14 But without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
Vbvrijvka, ngam ridurnam lvgabv ngo nam raitongtong nwngmado; Vbvyamabvdv, no lvgabv ngo noogv mvngnam bv um rimu nwngdunv. Vkvlvgabv no mvnglwk suma bolo ngo oguguchin rimu nyoya madunv.
15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldst receive him for ever; (aiōnios g166)
Onesimus gv achukgo no gvlo gvngv kiyu namsi alvyago aakur lakula doobwng minggv yajikuladv vkvlvgabv kiku nvgoi. (aiōnios g166)
16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
Okv vjak ninyi nyira mvngchik bvkuma, vbvritola nyira am alv yasin nvbvku: Kristo lo hv ayanam achiboru ngvku. Hv ngam vdwgo pakdudw vkvgo namka kaiyago pakri nvpv, nyira bvkula okv Ahtu Jisu gvlo achiboru bvku. Anyi baabwng ngv nyira bv mvngma bv achiboru bv Ahtu Jisu gvlo ritoka!
17 If thou accountest me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
Vkvlvgabv no ngam ajin bv mvngdu bolo, ngam umbonyikv vla laarwk sinam aingbv ninyia laarwk sutoka.
18 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth [thee] aught, put that on my account;
Vdwlo ninyi ogugo rimur pvdw vmalo ogugo jikurrikur svgo doodudw um ngo gvlo sapnumbunam am saplwk tvka.
19 I Paul have written [it] with my own hand, I will repay [it]: although I do not say to thee that thou owest to me even thy own self besides.
Soka, ngo atunvgv laak lokv si lvkdunv: Paul ngo nam dorji riku. (Nam ngo lvko mvngpa dadubv rima svngv, vbvrijvka, no atubongv ngoogv rigurriyin nvnga mvngpa ridu.)
20 Yes, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
Vkvlvga, ngokv achiboru, kaju ngokv tongbv mvnglwk gvrila Ahtu gv amin lo ritoka; kristo lo achiboru bv ngam habiatata jitoka.
21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote to thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
Ngo mvngjwngdu, ngoogv lvknam sum, oguaingbv ngo tvvka pvdw no vbvching rire—nam chinrungdu ngo minam dvdv sumka um no kaiyasin bvka riri nvpv.
22 But at the same time prepare me also a lodging; for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given to you.
Gaamgodv mindvdu, ngo lvgabv karchung lo ako mvpv jilaka, ngo mvngdu nonu mvnwng gv kumnam am Pwknvyarnv ngv tvvlaku okv ngam svbv nonu gvlo aakur modu kobv rireku.
23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus;
Epapras, ngoogv lvkobv pachipatwk lo Jisu kristo gv amin bv doonv, vdwka tulwk minggv gvrila ninyi gvbvka nam kumrwklwtak nama jilwk jidunv,
24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow-laborers.
okv ngo gv ribamdakbam nam Mark, Aristarkas, Demas, okv Luk bunu vdwka vbv jilwk minggvdu.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.
Nonu mvnwng lo Ahtu Jisu Kristo gv anyuaya ngv dooming gvilaka.
