Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker,
une ne Paulo, ne juno nikungilie vwimila kudalikila iMhola ja Yesu kilisite. nikukulembela uve Filimoni. une nunyalukolo ghwitu u uTimoteo, tukuhungila uve ghwe mughanike ghwitu, ghwe n'jiitu mumbombo.
2 and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in thy house:
tukumuhungila nu lumbu liitu uAfisa nu mulwalilungu n'jiitu uAlikipo, palikimo na vitiki vano vikong'aana mu nyumba jaako.
3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
ulusungu nulutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu, nakwa Mutwa uYesu Kilisite, luvisaghe numue.
4 I give thanks to my God, always making mention of thee in my prayers,
jatu pano nikukusumila, nikumwongesia uNguluve munyifunyo sango.
5 hearing of thy love and faith that thou hast unto the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
ulwakuva nipulika imhola ja lwitiko lwako mwa Mutwa Yesu, nulughano lwako kuvitiiki vooni. ulwitiki lwako lukupelile kuuva nu vuhangilanisi na vange.
6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that [is] in you toward Christ Jesus;
lino nikukufuunya kuuti, uvuhangilanisi uvuo vuvombaghe imbombo n'kate mulyumue kuuti, mu uluo lukuvapela kukagula inofu sooni, sino tunoghile kuvomba mwa Yesu Kilisite.
7 for we have much joy and comfort in thy love, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother.
nyalukolo, ulughano lwako luvahovwisie avitiki mumooja ghaave. najuune lumhelile ulukeelo ulukome nakukung'angasia.
8 Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit —
lino napano nili nu vutavulilua mwa Kilisite kukukulaghila kino unoghile kuvomba, nanivomba uluo.
9 because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;
Looli vwimila ulughani nivwene lunono nikusuume, une ne Paulo ndavule nili mughogholo ne pinyua mwa Yesu Kilisite.
10 I entreat thee concerning my child — whom I did beget in my bonds — Onesimus,
nikukusuma mu lwa Onesimo, juno ahene mwanango ulwakuva nintangile kukumwitika uYesu Kilisite pano nilimundinde.
11 who once was to thee unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to thee,
uju ye akukimbiile, naakale kinu kulyuve. lino lutangilo kulyuve, kange lutangilo kulyune.
12 whom I did send again, and thou him (that is, my own bowels) receive,
lino nikunsung'ha kulyuve, uju nimughanile nu mwojo ghwango ghwoni.
13 whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
kange niveele nikeela ikale nuune aave m'bombi ghwango kuuti ahaale palyune kukunhanga, pano nilimundinde vwimila imhola inofu.
14 and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness,
neke lino nivwene nalunono kuvomba lumonga kisila vughane vwako, nambe kukukwumilisia kuuti unhange. une nilonda uvombe muvughane vwako juuve.
15 for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him, (aiōnios g166)
pamo uNguluve akam'busisie uOnesimo kulyumue un'siki n'debe, neke pambele uuve nu mwene jaatu. kutengulila lino un'kami ghako ujuo nan'kami lwene, (aiōnios g166)
16 no more as a servant, but above a servant — a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
looli n'kami kange nyalukolo mughanike. une nimughanile kyongo, uve ghukumughana kukila, hene mwana ghwa munyumba jaako, kange nyalukolo mwa Mutwa.
17 If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me,
lino nave ung'hagwile une kuti nili vuhangilanisi nuuve, umwupile ujuo ndavule ghwale ukunyupila une.
18 and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning;
neke nave akuhokile, nambe ukun'sighila kimonga, usighilaghe une.
19 I, Paul did write with my hand, I — I will repay; that I may not say that also thyself, besides, to me thou dost owe.
neke Paulo nilembile nuluvoko lwango juune, nikukuhomba. kange uve ghukagula kuuti nikukusighila kukila kino ghukun'sighila uOnesimo ulakuva mumbombo jango ija vudaliki, uve ghwavangilue.
20 Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord;
Lino nyalukolo ghwango umbombele ulu vwimila ilitavua lwa Mutwa. hovosia umwojo ghwango ndavule lunoghiile kuvanyalukolo ma Kilisite
21 having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do;
nilemba isi, ulwakuva nikaghwile kuti ghukunda, kange kyaghuvomba kukila fino nikukusuma.
22 and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.
palikimo nisio unding'anikisyaghe apa kufikila, ulwakuva nihuvila kuti munyifunyo siinu, uNguluve ikunhanga niise kulyumue.
23 Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus, )
Uepafula juno adindilue palikimo nu mue vwimila uYesu Kilisite ghwitu ikukuhungila.
24 Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen!
kange avavombi avajango uMalika, uAlisitaliko, uDema nu Luuka, vikukuhungila.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit! Amen.
ulusungu lwa Mutwa ghwitu Yesu Kilisite luvisaghe numue.
