Falimoni 1

1 Hagi nagra Poli'na, Krais Jisasi erizante kina hu'nomo'nane, nenafu Timoti'ene ama avona, Filimoniga magoka eri'za enerita tavesinegantona rone timokaregane,

Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved friend and fellow worker,

2 nersaro Apiane, magoka Anumzamofo eri'zama e'neruna ne' Arkipusine mono naga'ma, nonka'afima atruma nehaza nagamotaregane ama avona kreneramune.

and also to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church that meets in yoʋr house:

3 Anumza Nerfane Ranti Jisas Kraisi asunku'zamo'ene arimpa fruzamo'a tamagrane mesie.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 Mika zupa nunamuma hufina, kagriku'ma antahinegami'na, Anumzani'amofona susu hunentoe.

I give thanks to my God, always making mention of yoʋ in my prayers,

5 Na'ankure mono naga'ma kavesinezmantenka, Ramofo Jisasinte'ma kamentintima nehana zamofo kea, nagra antahi'noe.

because I hear of yoʋr love for all the saints and the faith that yoʋ have toward the Lord Jesus.

6 Hagi nagrama nunamuma nehuana, kamentintima nehana zana kagrama tazeri hanavetikema nerasamina zamo'a, antahintahizanka'a erira nehina, Kraisimpima makamota asomu'ma me'neazana antahi ama hugahane.

I pray that yoʋr fellowship with us in the faith may be effective in deepening yoʋr understanding of every blessing that we have in Christ Jesus.

7 Hu'negu rama'a muse nehu'na hanave enerue, na'ankure kagra nerfuga mono nagamokizmi zamagu'a zamazeri hanavenetinkena muse nehu'na fruhu'na nemanue.

We are very thankful for the comfort we have received from yoʋr love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through yoʋ, brother.

8 E'ina hu'negu, nagrira Kraisi'a nazeri hanaveti'neankina hanave ke hu'na fatgoza huo hu'na hugantegaragi,

Therefore, although I am bold enough in Christ to command yoʋ to do what is right,

9 Nagra Poli'na, Krais Jisasi erizante kina hu'noa ne'mona, navesigantoa kazigati, kazeri otike huna kantahinegoe.

I would rather appeal to yoʋ on the basis of love. I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner for Jesus Christ,

10 Kina nompi mani'nena azeri nenamofoza hu'noa mofavreni'a Onisimusinku, nagra kazeri otike hu'na kantahi'negoe.

appeal to yoʋ on behalf of my child, Onesimus, whose father I have become during my imprisonment.

11 Kotera kagri kavurera mago eri'za eriga osu'neanagi, menina kagrite'ene nagrite'enena, eri'zama'amo'a me'nea ne' efore nehie.

Once he was useless to yoʋ, but now he is useful both to yoʋ and to me. I am sending him back,

12 Hagi kagritega etena, Onisimusina tumoni'agna hu'nemofo nagra huntogeno nevie.

and I ask yoʋ to receive him, that is, my very own heart.

13 Knare Musenkegu'ma kina hu'na maninofi, kagri no erino manineno naza haniegu navenesie.

I wanted to keep him with me so that he could serve me in yoʋr place during my imprisonment for the gospel.

14 Hianagi kagrama ontahinesanke'nama, nagrama mago'zama huntesua zankura navenosie. Hagi nagra aza huo hanuazanku, aza hu'zankura navenosianki, kagraka'a kavesite aza huo.

But I did not want to do anything without yoʋr consent, so that yoʋr good deed would not be done out of compulsion, but of yoʋr own free will.

15 Na'ankure amana agafarepi Onisimusima osia knafima kagri'ma katreneana, ete avresankeno kagrane manivava haniegu anara hu'ne. (aiōnios g166)

Perhaps the reason he was separated from yoʋ for an hour was so that yoʋ might have him back forever, (aiōnios g166)

16 Menina Onisimusia mago'ane kazokzo eri'za nera omanine. Hianagi nagritera kazokzo eri'za vahera agatereno navesinentoa nenfu'e. Hu'neanagi menina kagritera amega tavufare'ene Ramofompina mago'ane mono nerafu manine

no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a beloved brother, especially to me, but even more so to yoʋ, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

17 Hagi nagranema tragoteta eri'zama e'neru'a zanku'ma nentahisunka, nagri'ma nenavranaza hunka Onisimusina avro.

So if yoʋ consider me to be a partner, receive him as yoʋ would receive me.

18 Mago'za nehuno haviza hugantenesio, mago nofi hu'nesiana nagra miza hugahue.

If he has wronged yoʋ in any way or owes yoʋ anything, charge it to me.

19 Poli'na Nagra'a nazanu ama avona krenegamue. Nagra nona hu'na mizana hugahue. Nagra kagu kamemofona kaza hunoanagi, kagra nofira hunantenane hu'na nosue.

I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention that yoʋ owe me yoʋr very own life).

20 Tamage nenfuga, Ramofompina knare hunantenka, Kraisimpina nagu'a nazeri kasefahu kea nasami'nanegu nehue.

Yes, brother, let me have some benefit from yoʋ in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.

21 Nagra kantahi'negoazana, agaterenka hugahane hu'na antahinegamina, ama avona krenegamue.

Trusting in yoʋr obedience, I write to yoʋ, knowing that yoʋ will do even more than I ask.

22 Hagi anama nehanunka noma emasesuazana retro hunanto, na'ankure nagra amuha nehuankino, nunamu tamia Anumzamo'a antahino, kinafintira katufe natresagena vu'naku aveganentoe.

At the same time, I want yoʋ to prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you soon.

23 Hagi Krais Jisasi eri'zanku hu'za magoka kina hurante'naza ne'mo, Epafrasi'a musenkea atregante.

Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus,

24 Anahukna hu'za magoka eri'za eneruna naga'mo'zanena, Makima Aristakusima, Demasima, Luku'ma, musenkea atregantaze.

and Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers, greet yoʋ.

25 Ranti Jisas Kraisi asunku'zamo'a tamagrane mesie.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
