Abhafilipi 3

1 Mbe kubhutelo, bhaili bhani mukondelelwe muli Mumukama. Nitakulola nyako okubhandikila lindi emisango jilya jilya. Amagambo ganu galibhayana omulembe.

2 Mwikenge na jimbwa. Mwikenge na abhakosi abhabhibhi abhemilimu. Mwikenge nabhanu abhetema tema emibhili jebhwe.

3 Kulwokubha eswe neswe okutenda. Eswe neswe bhanu echilamya Nyamuanga kulwo Mwoyo. Bhanu echikuya mu Yesu Kristo, na bhanu chitali no obhuigi mumubhili.

4 Kulwejo, chisanga aliwo omunu wo okwiikanya omubhili gunu, anye nakatulile okukola kutyo okukila bhona.

5 Kunsonga natendelwe kulunaku lwa munana, nebhuwe muluganda lwa Abhaisraeli. Nili wa muluganda lwa Bhenjamini. Nili Mweburania wa Abhaeburania. Okukumisha ubhulengelesi bhwe echilagilo cha Musa, naliga nili Omufarisayo.

6 Kulwa amanaga gani nanyasishe Likanisa. Kulwo okubhaya obhulengelesi bwe ebhilagilo, naliga nitali ne echikujusho mubhilagilo.

7 Nawe kumisango jona jinu nalolele ati jino obwekisi kwanye, nagalolele kuti manu kulwo okumumenya Kristo.

8 Nichimali emisngo jona enijibhala jitali na mugaso kulwo obhukonde bhwo okumumenya Kristo Omukama wani. Kulwo omwene nisigile emisango jona, enigalola lwa amanu koleleki nimubhone Kristo,

9 na nibhonekane munda yaye. Nitali no obhulengelesi bhwani omwene okusoka mubhilagilo, tali nili no obhulengelesi bhunu obhusokana ne elikilisha mu Kristo, linu elisoka ku Nyamuanga, eyo obhusimbagililo mulikilisha.

10 Oli anu enenda okumumenya na amanga ago obhusuluko bhwaye no obhumwi obhwa inyako yaye. Enenda okuindulwa na Kristo mu chijejekanyo echo olufu lwaye,

11 koleleki nibhe no obhwiikanyo mubhusuluko bhwa abhafu.

12 Jitali ati namalile okubhona emisango ejo, amwi ati nabheye mulengelesi mumisango ejo. Nawe enikomesha koleleki nitule okubhona echiyanwa chinu Kristo Yesu amalile okumbonela ingulu yo omwene.

13 Bhaili bhani, nitakumenya ati namalile okubhona emisangi ejo. Tali enikola omusango gumwi: Againyuma enilabhilwa enilolelela agaimbele.

14 Enikomesha koleleki nikinge nkundego no okubhona echiyanwa chinene echo okubhilikilwa na Nyamuanga mu Kristo Yesu.

15 Bhona bhanu chilamile mukuchungulwa, ni bhusi bhusi chiganilishe kutyo. Ka labha alio omunu undi unu keganilisha kundi ingulu yo omusango gwona gwona, mbe Nyamuanga alilitula abhwelu imbele yemwe ona.

16 Nolwo jikabha kutyo, omwanya gukakinga, chigendelele imbele okulubhana na intungwa ilya chalubhaga okukingila olyanu.

17 Bhaili bhani, ni mundubhe anye. Mubhetegeleshe kwakisi bhanu bhalamile lwakutyo eswe chili.

18 Abhafu bhanu bhalamile nibhanu nabhabhwiliye ingulu yebhwe, na enisubha okubhabhwila ni ndililako; abhanu bhafu bhekaye bhali bhasoko bho omusalabha gwa Kristo.

19 Obhutelo bhwebhwe no okunyamuka. Kulwokubha Nyamuanga webhwe ni inda, echisilimu chebhwe chili na jinswalo. Abheganilisha amagambo ge echalo.

20 Nawe obhwikalo bhwese bhuli mulwile, enu echiikanya niyo ali omwelusi weswe Yesu Kristo.

21 Aliindula emibhili jeswe emilenga nijibha lwo ogwaye ogwa likusho; kwo obhutulo bhulya bhulya obhwo kakolela okukama ebhinu bhyona.
