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, servants of Jesus the Messiah, to all the saints that are in Jesus the Messiah at Philippi, with the elders and deacons.
2 Alheri da salama daga Allah Ubanmu da kuma Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi, su kasance tare ku.
Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
3 Ina gode wa Allahna a kowane lokacin da na tuna da ku.
I thank my God at the constant recollection of you,
4 A cikin dukan addu’o’ina dominku duka, nakan yi addu’a da farin ciki kullum
in all my prayers respecting you; and while I rejoice, I adore;
5 saboda tarayyarku a cikin bishara daga ranar farko har yă zuwa yanzu,
on account of your fellowship in the gospel, 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.
Because I am confident of this, that he who hath begun the good works in you, will accomplish them until the day of our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
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.
For thus it is right for me to think of you all, because ye are permanently in my heart, and because, both in my bonds and in the vindication of the truth of the gospel, ye are my associates in grace.
8 Allah shi ne shaidata, ya san yadda nake ƙaunarku duka da ƙaunar Kiristi Yesu.
For God is my witness, how I love you in the bowels of Jesus the Messiah.
9 Addu’ata ita ce ƙaunarku tă yi ta cin gaba da ƙaruwa cikin sani da kuma zurfin ganewa,
And this I pray for, that your love may still increase and abound, in knowledge, and In all spiritual understanding:
10 don ku iya rarrabe abin da yake mafi kyau, ku kuma zama da tsarki, marasa aibi har yă zuwa ranar Kiristi,
so that ye may discern the things that are suitable; and may be pure and without offence, in the day of the Messiah,
11 cikakku da sakamakon aikin adalci da yake zuwa ta wurin Yesu Kiristi, zuwa ga ɗaukakar Allah da kuma yabonsa.
and be full of the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus the Messiah, to the praise and glory of God.
12 To, ina so ku sani’yan’uwa, cewa abin da ya faru da ni ya sa cin gaban bishara.
And I would that ye might know, my brethren, that the transaction in regard to me, hath eventuated rather for 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 bonds, on account of the Messiah, are matter of notoriety in all the court, and to all others.
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 our Lord have become confident, on account of my bonds, and are 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.
And they herald it, some from envy and contention; but others with good will, and with love for the Messiah;
16 Na biye suna yin haka cikin ƙauna, da sanin cewa an sa ni a nan ne domin kāriyar bishara.
because they know that I am appointed for the vindication 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 they who herald the Messiah in contention, do it not sincerely; but they hope to add pressure to my bonds.
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,
And in this I have rejoiced, and do rejoice, that in every form, whether in pretence or in truth, the Messiah is heralded.
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 these things will be found conducive to my life, through your prayers and the gift of the Spirit of Jesus the Messiah.
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.
So that I hope and expect, that I shall in nothing be put to shame; but with uncovered face, as at all times, so now, the Messiah will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.
21 Gama a gare ni, rai Kiristi ne, mutuwa kuma riba ce.
For my life is, the Messiah; and if I die, it is gain to me.
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!
But if I have fruits of my labors in this life of the flesh, I know not what I shall choose.
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;
For the two press upon me: I desire to be liberated, that I may be with the Messiah; and this would be very advantageous to me.
24 amma ya fi muku muhimmanci in rayu cikin jiki.
But also the business in regard to you, urges upon me to remain in the body.
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 this I confidently know, that I shall continue and remain, for your joy, and for the furtherance of your faith;
26 domin ta wurin kasancewata tare da ku, farin cikinku cikin Kiristi Yesu zai cika sosai ta dalilina.
so that when I come again to you, your glorying, which is in Jesus the Messiah only, will abound through me.
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
Let your conduct be as becometh the gospel of the Messiah; so that if I come I may see you, and if absent I may hear of you, that ye stand fast in one spirit and in one soul, and that ye strive together in 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 startled, by those who rise up against us; which is an indication of their destruction, and of life for you.
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,
And this is given to you by God, that ye not only really believe in the Messiah, but also that ye suffer on his account;
30 da yake kuna shan faman da kuka gan na sha, kuna kuma jin cewa har yanzu ina sha.
and that ye endure conflict, as ye have seen in me, and now hear concerning me.
