Filibbiyawa 1
1 Bulus da Timoti, bayin Kiristi Yesu, Zuwa ga dukan tsarkaka cikin Kiristi Yesu a Filibbi, tare da masu kula da Ikkilisiya da kuma masu hidima.
Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ; to all the saints in Christ Jesus, who are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons.
2 Alheri da salama daga Allah Ubanmu da kuma Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi, su kasance tare ku.
Grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Ina gode wa Allahna a kowane lokacin da na tuna da ku.
I give thanks to my God in every remembrance of you,
4 A cikin dukan addu’o’ina dominku duka, nakan yi addu’a da farin ciki kullum
Always in all my prayers making supplication for you all, with joy;
5 saboda tarayyarku a cikin bishara daga ranar farko har yă zuwa yanzu,
For your communication in the gospel of Christ from the first day until now.
6 da tabbacin cewa wanda ya fara kyakkyawan aikin nan a cikinku, zai kai shi ga kammalawa har yă zuwa ranar Kiristi Yesu.
Being confident of this very thing, that he, who hath begun a good work in you, will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus.
7 Daidai ne in yi wannan tunani game da dukanku, da yake kuna a zuciyata; domin ko ina daure cikin sarƙoƙi ko ina kāre bishara ina kuma tabbatar da ita, dukanku kuna tarayya cikin alherin Allah tare da ni.
As it is meet for me to think this for you all, for that I have you in my heart; and that in my bands, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my joy.
8 Allah shi ne shaidata, ya san yadda nake ƙaunarku duka da ƙaunar Kiristi Yesu.
For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
9 Addu’ata ita ce ƙaunarku tă yi ta cin gaba da ƙaruwa cikin sani da kuma zurfin ganewa,
And this I pray, that your charity may more and more abound in knowledge, and in all understanding:
10 don ku iya rarrabe abin da yake mafi kyau, ku kuma zama da tsarki, marasa aibi har yă zuwa ranar Kiristi,
That you may approve the better things, that you may be sincere and without offence unto the day of Christ,
11 cikakku da sakamakon aikin adalci da yake zuwa ta wurin Yesu Kiristi, zuwa ga ɗaukakar Allah da kuma yabonsa.
Filled with the fruit of justice, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
12 To, ina so ku sani’yan’uwa, cewa abin da ya faru da ni ya sa cin gaban bishara.
Now, brethren, I desire you should know, that the things which have happened to me, have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel:
13 Ta haka, ya zama sananne ga dukan masu gadin fada da kuma ga kowa cewa an daure ni da sarƙoƙi saboda Kiristi.
So that my bands are made manifest in Christ, in all the court, and in all other places;
14 Saboda sarƙoƙina, yawancin’yan’uwa cikin Ubangiji sun sami ƙarfafawa su yi maganar Allah gabagadi da kuma babu tsoro.
And many of the brethren in the Lord, growing confident by my bands, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.
15 Gaskiya ce cewa waɗansu suna yin wa’azin Kiristi saboda kishi da neman faɗa, amma waɗansu da nufi mai kyau suke yi.
Some indeed, even out of envy and contention; but some also for good will preach Christ.
16 Na biye suna yin haka cikin ƙauna, da sanin cewa an sa ni a nan ne domin kāriyar bishara.
Some out of charity, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
17 Na farin dai suna wa’azin Kiristi da sonkai ne, ba da zuciya ɗaya ba, a sonsu, su wahalar da ni a cikin sarƙoƙi.
And some out of contention preach Christ not sincerely: supposing that they raise affliction to my bands.
18 Me kuma? Ta ko yaya dai, ko da gangan, ko da gaske, ana shelar Kiristi. Domin wannan kuwa ina farin ciki. I, zan kuwa ci gaba da farin ciki,
But what then? So that by all means, whether by occasion, or by truth, Christ be preached: in this also I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
19 gama na san cewa ta wurin addu’o’inku da kuma taimako daga Ruhun Yesu Kiristi, abin da ya same ni zai zama sanadin kuɓutata.
For I know that this shall fall out to me unto salvation, through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 Ina saurara da marmari da kuma bege cewa ba zan taɓa shan kunya ba, sai dai zan sami issashen ƙarfin hali yanzu kamar kullum, za a ɗaukaka Kiristi a jikina, ko ta wurin rayuwa ko kuma ta wurin mutuwa.
According to my expectation and hope; that in nothing I shall be confounded, but with all confidence, as always, so now also shall Christ be magnified in my body, wither it be by life, or by death.
21 Gama a gare ni, rai Kiristi ne, mutuwa kuma riba ce.
For to me, to live is Christ; and to die is gain.
22 In zan ci gaba da rayuwa a cikin jiki, wannan zai zama aiki mai amfani a gare ni. Duk da haka me zan zaɓa? Ban sani ba!
And if to live in the flesh, this is to me the fruit of labour, and what I shall choose I know not.
23 Na rasa wanda zan zaɓa cikin biyun nan. Ina sha’awa in yi ƙaura in zauna tare da Kiristi, wannan kuwa ya fi kyau nesa ba kusa ba;
But I am straitened between two: having a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the better.
24 amma ya fi muku muhimmanci in rayu cikin jiki.
But to abide still in the flesh, is needful for you.
25 Na tabbata haka ne, na kuwa san zan wanzu in zauna tare da ku duka, domin ku ci gaba, bangaskiyarku tana sa ku farin ciki,
And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, and continue with you all, for your furtherance and joy of faith:
26 domin ta wurin kasancewata tare da ku, farin cikinku cikin Kiristi Yesu zai cika sosai ta dalilina.
That your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus for me, by my coming to you again.
27 Kome ya faru, ku yi zaman da ya cancanci bisharar Kiristi. Ta haka, ko na zo na gan ku, ko ban zo ba, in ji labari cewa kun tsaya da ƙarfi a cikin ruhu ɗaya, kuna fama kamar mutum ɗaya saboda bangaskiyar bishara
Only let your conversation be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you, or, being absent, may hear of you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind labouring together for the faith of the gospel.
28 ba tare da kun ji tsoron waɗanda suke gāba da ku ta kowace hanya ba. Wannan alama ce a gare su cewa za a hallaka su, amma a gare ku za a cece ku, wannan tabbacin kuwa daga wurin Allah ne.
And in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this from God:
29 Gama an ba ku zarafi a madadin Kiristi cewa ba gaskatawa da shi kaɗai ba kuka yi ba, har ma ku sha wahala dominsa,
For unto you it is given for Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him.
30 da yake kuna shan faman da kuka gan na sha, kuna kuma jin cewa har yanzu ina sha.
Having the same conflict as that which you have seen in me, and now have heard of me.
