Filibbiyawa 2
1 Idan akwai wani abin karfafawa cikin Almasihu. Idan da wata ta'aziyya daga kaunarsa. Idan akwai zumunta a Ruhu. Idan da tatausan jinkai da tausayi.
If then there is any comfort in Christ, if there is any persuasive power in love, if there is any companionship of the Spirit, if there is any tenderness or pity,
2 Ku cika farin cikina don ku zama da tunani irin haka, kuna da kauna daya, kuna tarayya cikin Ruhu daya, ku kasance da manufa iri daya.
I entreat you to make my joy overflow by living in harmony; possessing the same love, and with one soul united in one purpose.
3 Kada ku yi komai cikin sonkai ko girman kai. A maimakon haka cikin zuciya mai tawali'u kowa na duban wadansu fiye da kansa.
Do nothing out of strife, nothing out of vanity, but let each one in true humility consider the others to be of more account than himself.
4 Kada kowa ya dubi bukatun sa, amma yana lura da bukatun wadansu.
Let each have an eye not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
5 Ku yi tunani cikin hanya wadda ke cikin Almasihu Yesu.
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,
6 Wanda ya yi zama cikin siffar Allah, bai mai da daidaitarsa da Allah wani abin da zai rike ba.
who, though from the beginning he had the nature of God, did not reckon equality with God something to be forcibly retained,
7 Maimakon haka, ya wofintar da kansa. Ya dauki siffar bawa. Ya bayyana cikin kamannin mutane. An same shi a bayyane kamar mutum.
but emptied himself of his glory by taking the form of a slave, when he was born in the likeness of men.
8 Ya kaskantar da kansa, ya yi biyayya har ga mutuwa, mutuwa ta gicciye.
More than this, after he had shone himself in human form, he humbled himself in his obedience even to death; yes, and to death on a cross.
9 Saboda haka Allah ya ba shi mafificiyar daukaka. Ya ba shi suna wanda yafi kowanne suna.
And for this God highly exalted him, and graciously bestowed upon him the name which is above every name;
10 Domin a cikin sunan Yesu kowace gwiwa za ta durkusa, gwiwoyin wadanda ke cikin sama da kuma duniya da kuma karkashin duniya.
that in the name of Jesus every knee in heaven, on earth, and under the earth should bend,
11 Kuma kowanne harshe zai furta cewa Yesu Almasihu Ubangiji ne, zuwa daukakar Allah Uba.
and every tongue confess that "Jesus Christ is Lord," to the glory of God the Father.
12 Domin wannan kaunatattuna, kamar yadda kullum kuke biyayya ba sai ina nan kadai ba. Balle yanzu da bananan, ku yi aikin cetonku da tsoro da far gaba.
And so, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, with reverence and self- distrust work out your own salvation;
13 Gama Allah ne yake aiki a cikinku ku yi nufi duka da aikata abin da zai gamshe shi.
for it is God who, in his good-will is ever working in you both will and deed.
14 Ku yi kowanne abu ba tare da gunaguni da gardama ba.
Do everything without grumbling and disputes,
15 Domin ku zama marasa abin zargi kuma masu gaskiya, 'ya'yan Allah marasa aibi. Ku yi haka domin ku haskaka kamar haske a cikin wannan duniya, a tsakiyar karkatacciyar da gurbatacciyar tsara.
that you may become blameless and innocent, the sons of God, without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine like stars in a dark world,
16 Ku rike kalmar rai da karfi domin in sami dalilin daukaka Almasihu a ranarsa. Sa'annan zan san cewa ban yi tseren banza ba, ban kuma yi wahalar banza ba.
holding out a message of life. Thus it will be my boast at the day of Christ that I have not run in vain, or toiled for nothing.
17 Ko da ana tsiyaye ni kamar sadaka a kan hadaya da kuma hidimar bangaskiyarku, na yi farin ciki, kuma na yi farin ciki tare da ku duka.
Nay, even if my life is to be poured out as a libation upon the sacrifice and service of you faith,
18 Kamar haka kuma sai ku yi farin ciki, ku yi farin ciki tare da ni.
I will rejoice and congratulate you all; and in the same way you must rejoice and congratulate me.
19 Amma na yi niyya in aiko da Timoti wurin ku ba da dadewa ba, domin ni ma in sami karfafuwa idan na san al'amuran ku.
Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you before long, so that I may be of good comfort when I learn the news concerning you.
20 Gama bani da wani wanda halinmu yayi daidai da nasa, wanda yake juyayin ku da gaskiya.
For I have no other like him with a genuine concern for your welfare,
21 Domin duka ribar kansu suke nema bata Yesu Almasihu ba.
for they are all seeking their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.
22 Amma kun san darajar sa, kamar yadda da ke hidimar mahaifisa, haka ya bauta mani cikin bishara.
And you know Timothy’s worth, how he has shared my servitude in furtherance of the gospel, like a son helping his father.
23 Shi nake sa zuciyar in aiko maku ba da dadewa ba idan naga yadda al'amura nake gudana.
So I hope to send him, as soon as ever I see how it will go with me;
24 Amma ina da gabagadi cikin Ubangiji cewa ni da kaina zan zo ba da dadewa ba.
but I trust in the Lord that I also shall come shortly.
25 Amma ina tunanin yakamata in sake aiko maku da Abafaroditus, shi dan'uwana ne, abokin aiki, da abokin yaki, manzon ku da kuma bawa domin bukatu na.
Epaphroditus, my brother and coworker and fellow soldier, who is your messenger and minister to my needs, I have thought it necessary to send to you;
26 Da shike yana marmarin ku duka, ya damu kwarai da shike kun ji yayi rashin lafiya.
for he has been homesick for you all, and distressed at your having heard of his illness.
27 Da gaske yayi rashin lafiya har ya kusan mutuwa. Amma Allah ya ji tausayin sa, ba shi kadai ba, amma har da ni, domin kada in yi bakin ciki kan bakin ciki.
And indeed he was sick nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also so that I should not have sorrow upon sorrow.
28 Domin haka na yi niyyar aiko shi, saboda idan kun sake ganinsa za ku yi farin ciki ni kuma in kubuta daga juyayi.
Therefore I have been the more eager to send him, in order that you may rejoice in seeing him again, and that I may have one sorrow less.
29 Ku karbi Abafaroditus da dukan murna cikin Ubangiji. Ku ga darajar mutane irin sa.
Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold in honor men like him;
30 Domin saboda aikin Almasihu ne ya kusan mutuwa. Ya sadakar da ransa domin ya bauta mani domin ya cika hidimar da ya kamata ku yi mani.
for it was through the work of the Lord that he came near to death; for he hazarded his very life to supply what was lacking in the help you sent me.
