< Afilipi 4 >

1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, o inyuĩ nyendete na ngeriragĩria kũmuona, nĩ inyuĩ gĩkeno gĩakwa na thũmbĩ yakwa. Endwa akwa, ũguo nĩguo mũbatiĩ kwĩhaanda mũrũmĩte thĩinĩ wa Mwathani.
Therefore, my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown; so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
2 Nĩngũthaitha Euodia o na thaithe Sunutuke nĩgeetha maiguane thĩinĩ wa Mwathani.
I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one mind in the Lord.
3 Ĩĩ-ni, o na nĩngũkũũria, wee mũrata wakwa wa ma, wee tũrutithanagia wĩra ta tuohetwo icooki rĩmwe, teithagia atumia acio, arĩa maarũĩrĩire Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega marĩ hamwe na niĩ, o na Klementi na andũ arĩa angĩ marutithanagia wĩra hamwe na niĩ, arĩa marĩĩtwa mao mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa muoyo.
And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Ikaragai mũkenete hĩndĩ ciothe mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Mwathani. O na nĩ nguuga o rĩngĩ: Ikaragai mũkenete!
Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
5 Rekei gũkirĩrĩria kwanyu kũmenyeke nĩ andũ othe. Mwathani arĩ hakuhĩ gũũka.
Let your modesty be known to all men. The Lord is nigh.
6 Mũtigatangĩke ngoro nĩ ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ, no rĩrĩ, menyithagiai Ngai maũndũ marĩa mothe mwendaga, mũkĩmũhooyaga, na mũkĩmũthaithaga, o na mũkĩmũcookagĩria ngaatho.
Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
7 Naguo thayũ wa Ngai, ũrĩa ũtangĩmenyeka ũrĩa ũtariĩ, nĩũrĩmenyagĩrĩra ngoro cianyu o na meciiria manyu thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ.
And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Ũhoro wa kũrĩkĩrĩria, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, nĩ atĩ maũndũ marĩa ma ma, na marĩa ma gũtĩĩka, na marĩa ma kĩhooto, na marĩa matheru, na marĩa ma kwendeka, na marĩa ma kwĩrirĩrio, angĩkorwo kũrĩ maũndũ mega kũna na ma kũgaathĩrĩrio-rĩ, mwĩciiragiei ũhoro wa maũndũ ta macio.
For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever modest, whatsoever just, whatsoever holy, whatsoever lovely, whatsoever of good fame, if there be any virtue, if any praise of discipline, think on these things.
9 Namo maũndũ marĩa mwerutire, kana mũkĩamũkĩra kana mũkĩigua kuuma kũrĩ niĩ, o na kana mũkĩona thĩinĩ wakwa, mekagei arĩ mo. Nake Ngai wa thayũ nĩarĩkoragwo hamwe na inyuĩ.
The things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these do ye, and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 Nĩngũkena mũno thĩinĩ wa Mwathani nĩkuona atĩ marigĩrĩrio-inĩ nĩmũrurumũkĩtie ũhoro wanyu wa kwĩĩnjiiria. Ti-itherũ nĩmũreĩnjiiragia, no mũtirarĩ na mweke wa kuonania ũguo.
Now I rejoice in the Lord exceedingly, that now at length your thought for me hath flourished again, as you did also think; but you were busied.
11 Ndiroiga ũguo nĩ ũndũ nĩmbataire, nĩgũkorwo nĩndĩrutĩte kũiganĩra o ũrĩa kũngĩkorwo kũhaana.
I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.
12 Nĩmenyete ũhoro wa gũikara ndĩ mũkĩaru, na ngamenya ũhoro wa gũikara ndĩ mũtongu. Nĩndĩrutĩte hitho ya gũikara njiganĩire ũndũ-inĩ o wothe na maũndũ-inĩ mothe, kana nĩ kũhũũna, kana nĩ kũhũũta, kana nĩ kũingĩhĩrwo, o na kana nĩ kwaga.
I know both how to be brought low, and I know how to abound: (everywhere, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, and to be hungry; both to abound, and to suffer need.
13 Nĩhotaga gwĩka maũndũ mothe na ũndũ wa Kristũ ũrĩa ũheaga hinya.
I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
14 No, nĩmwekire wega nĩkũnyiitanĩra na niĩ mathĩĩna-inĩ makwa.
Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.
15 Makĩria ma ũguo, o ta ũrĩa inyuĩ andũ Afilipi mũkũmenya-rĩ, matukũ-inĩ ma mbere rĩrĩa mwahunjĩirio Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndoimire Makedonia, gũtirĩ kanitha o na ũmwe wanyiitanĩire na niĩ harĩ ũhoro wa kũheana kana kwamũkĩra, tiga o inyuĩ;
And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only:
16 nĩgũkorwo o na rĩrĩa ndaarĩ Thesalonike, nĩmwandũmagĩra ũteithio kaingĩ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndaakoragwo mbataire.
For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use.
17 Ti atĩ nĩ kĩheo ndĩracaria kuuma kũrĩ inyuĩ, no ndĩracaria kĩrĩa kĩngĩigwo mũthiithũ-inĩ wanyu.
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that may abound to your account.
18 Nĩnyamũkĩrĩte indo nyingĩ mũno makĩria; nĩndeheirwo indo cia kũnjigana, nĩgũkorwo rĩu nĩnyamũkĩrĩte iheo iria mwanengerire Epafarodito andehere. Indo icio nĩ ta maruta marĩ na mũtararĩko mwega, marĩ igongona rĩĩtĩkĩrĩku rĩa gũkenia Ngai.
But I have all, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
19 Nake Ngai wakwa nĩarĩkĩragĩrĩria kũmũhe kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩkorwo mũbataire, akĩmũtanahagĩra na ũtonga wake ũrĩa wĩ riiri thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ.
And may my God supply all your want, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Nake Ngai, o we Ithe witũ, arogoocwo nginya tene na tene. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
Now to God and our Father be glory world without end. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Geithiai andũ othe arĩa aamũre thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ. Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ arĩa tũrĩ nao nĩmamũgeithia.
Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus.
22 Andũ othe arĩa aamũre nĩmamũgeithia, na makĩria arĩa a mũciĩ wa Kaisari.
The brethren who are with me, salute you. All the saints salute you; especially they that are of Caesar’s household.
23 Wega wa Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ ũrogĩa na maroho manyu. Ameni.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
