Pillimona 1
1 Yesusi Kirstossa gish qachettida tappe Phawulossapenne nu isha Xiintossape nu siqqo isha gididi nunara issife oothiza Pllimonas.
Paul, a prisoner for Jesus Christ, and brother Timothy, to the beloved Philemon, our fellow worker,
2 Ne keeththan shiiqqiza ammaniza asasinne nu michchiyo Ampibyas qassekka nunara issife Kirstossa wotadara gidida Arkiiphasses;
and to the beloved Apphia and our fellow soldier Archippus, and to the congregation at your (sg) house:
3 Nu Aawa Xoossafe nu Goda YesusiKiristossape keeyatethinne sarotethi intes gido.
Grace to you (pl) and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
4 Ta ta wossan nena qopashe wuriso wode Xoossa galatayss.
I always thank my God as I make mention of you (sg) in my prayers,
5 Gaasoykka ne Xoossa asa siiqizaysanne Goda Yesusi Kiristossan ne ammanizaysa ta siyadis.
hearing of your love and faith that you have toward the Lord Jesus, and for all the saints,
6 Nuni Kiristossas gididaysanne nuus diza loo7o yoy wuri qonccen eretana mala nekka ne ammano hara asas bessana mala ta nees miina wossayss.
so that the sharing of your (sg) faith may become powerful through a full understanding of every good thing that is among you (pl) who are in Christ Jesus;
7 Ta ishazo! ne hanon Xoossa asa wozinay ooraxxida gish ne siiqqoy ta wozina keehi miinisides.
yes, we have much thanksgiving and encouragement because of your (sg) love, in that the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
8 Hessa gish ne oothanas besizayssa oothana mala nena azazanas taas Kirstosan xalateth deesikkoshin.
Now then, though I have all boldness in Christ to order you (sg) to do what is right,
9 Gido attin ta nena azazanape siiqora wossayss. Gaasoykka tani Yesusii Kiristosa gish qachistada qasho keeththan diza phawulosakko.
I—being none other than Paul the old man and now also a prisoner for Jesus Christ—would rather appeal to you, for love's sake.
10 Ta nena wossizay ta qasho keeththan dashe Yesusi Kirstosan yeellida na Anasimossa gishaskko.
I appeal to you on behalf of the son whom I begot while in my chains, Onesimus, whom I am sending back
11 Anasmossay hayssafe kasse nena go7iibeyna shin ha7i gidiko nenakka tanakka go7izadekko.
—formerly he was unprofitable to you, but now he is profitable, both to you and to me.
12 Ta ha7i iza neekko zara yedadis. Ta neekko yedizay iza gidontta ta wozina neekko zara yediza mala qoodayss.
So receive him, who is my very heart
13 Mishiracho qaala gaasotetha ta haan qachista dishin ne tana ootha maadana exxa izi tanara deyidakko tana ufaysses shin.
—I would have liked to keep him with me, so that he might minister to me in your place, while I am in chains for the Gospel,
14 Gido attin ne loo7o oothoy ne dosanipe attin wolliqara gidonta mala gaada nena ooychonta aykokka oothana koyabeykke.
but I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that your contribution might be voluntary, not as an imposition.
15 Anasmosay hano gakanaas neppe gutha wode shaketikokka oone erizay hayssafe guye wuriso wode nenara daana dandda7ees. (aiōnios g166)
Perhaps this is why he was removed for a while, so that you would have him forever (aiōnios g166)
16 Hayssafe guye izi nenara daanay aylle mala gidontta ayllefe adhidi nees asho isha mala gidana. Izi taas dosetida ishakko. Gido attin izi nena oothi go7ana asi gidida gishinne izi nees Kirstossa baggara isha gidida gish nees keehi dosetidade gidana.
—no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, very much to me but even more to you, both in flesh and in the Lord.
17 Nuus diza isipetetha gaason ne tana nees isha mala qoodiza giidikko tana ne mokka ekiiza mala izakka mokka ekka.
So if you consider me a partner, receive him as if it were me.
18 Izi ne bolla gathida qohoy dikko woykko ne accoy iza bolla dikko iza accoza ta bolla tayba.
If he wronged you or owes anything, charge it to me.
19 Heko ta Pawulossay “Iza accoza ta nees qanxana” gaada ta kushera xafadis. Gidikokka ne Kiristossa ammaniday ta baggara gidida gish haray attoshin nekka taas qanxana accoy dizade gididayssa ta nena erissanas koshena.
I, Paul, am writing with my own hand, “I will repay” (rather than say to you that you actually owe me your very self!).
20 Hi7a ta ishazo heesa loo7o ootho ne taas oothana mala Goda sunthan Kirstossa gish gaada ne ta wozina shempisana mala nena wossayss.
Yes brother, let me have this benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.
21 Ta nees hayssa xahaaththaiday ne taas azazistanaysa ammanadako. Ta nena ooychidayssafe ne aatha oothonayssa ta erayss.
Being confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you (sg) will do even more than I say.
22 Xoossi inte wossa siydi ta inteko yanadan oothana mala taas ufayssi diza gish ta baada intekon shempanaso taas hayana giigissa.
But meanwhile, do prepare a guest room for me, because I hope that through your (pl) prayers I will be graciously bestowed on you (pl).
23 Yesusi Kiristossa gaason tanara qachettida Ephafiray nena saro gees.
Epaphras, my fellow prisoner for Christ Jesus, greets you (sg),
24 Hesathokka tanara oothizayti Marqqosay Aristirokosay Demassaynne Luqassay nena saro geettes.
as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 Goda Yesusi Kistossa kiiyatethi intenara gido.
The grace of our Lord Jesus be with your (pl) spirit. Amen.
