Philippi 2

1 Moul lowos yurin Christ mwe akkeye kowos, ac lungse lal akwoye kowos. Oasr aengani lowos yurin Ngun Mutal, ac oasr kulang ac pakoten lowos nu sin sie sin sie.

If, then, any exhortation [is] in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

2 Ke ma inge nga kwafe nu suwos tuh kowos in oru tuh engan luk keiwos in arulana yohk, ke sripen kowos nunak sefanna, ipeis ke lungse sefanna, ac kowos ma sefanna in nunak ac in ngunuwos.

fulfil ye my joy, that ye may mind the same thing — having the same love — of one soul — minding the one thing,

3 Nimet oru kutena ma ke nunku kac sifacna, ku ke konkin lusrongten, a kowos in pusisel nu sin sie sin sie, ac kowos in tia nunku mu kowos wo liki mwet ngia.

nothing in rivalry or vain-glory, but in humility of mind one another counting more excellent than yourselves —

4 Suk pac ma ac wo nu sin mwet ngia, ac tia ma na ac wo nu suwos sifacna.

each not to your own look ye, but each also to the things of others.

5 Ouiyen nunak lowos in oana ouiyen nunak lun Christ Jesus:

For, let this mind be in you that [is] also in Christ Jesus,

6 El nuna oana luman God in pacl nukewa, Tusruktu el tiana srike in orekmakin ku lal elan fulat oana God.

who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not robbery to be equal to God,

7 El tia oru ouinge, a ke sulela lal sifacna el fuhleak ma nukewa, Ac ekla nu ke lumah lun sie mwet kulansap. El ekla oana sie mwet, Ac sikme nu faclu in luman mwet.

but did empty himself, the form of a servant having taken, in the likeness of men having been made,

8 El pusisel, ac fahsr inkanek lun akosten nwe ke el sun misa — Aok, misa lal fin sakseng.

and in fashion having been found as a man, he humbled himself, having become obedient unto death — death even of a cross,

9 Ke ma inge, God El srakalak nu yen fulatlana lucng, Ac sang nu sel ine se su fulat liki ine nukewa.

wherefore, also, God did highly exalt him, and gave to him a name that [is] above every name,

10 Ouinge, in akfulatye inen Jesus, Ma moul nukewa inkusrao, ac fin faclu, ac ye faclu Fah sikukmutuntei,

that in the name of Jesus every knee may bow — of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth —

11 Ac mwet nukewa fah pulaik in fahkak lah Jesus Christ el Leum, Nu ke wolana lun God Papa.

and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

12 Ke ma inge, mwet kulo luk, oana ke kowos tuh akosyu in pacl nukewa ke nga muta yuruwos, ac arulana yohk sripa kowos in akosyu inge ke nga muta loes liki kowos. Kowos sikalani in orekma tuh kowos in eis molela lun God ke kowos sunakunul ke inse pwaye,

So that, my beloved, as ye always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, with fear and trembling your own salvation work out,

13 mweyen God El orekma in kowos pacl nukewa, tuh kowos fah ku ac engan in akos ma lungse lal.

for God it is who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.

14 Kowos in oru ma nukewa, tia ke torkaskas ku akukuin,

All things do without murmurings and reasonings,

15 tuh kowos in nasnas ac in wangin mwatuwos, oana tulik pwaye nutin God su muta in facl koluk se inge inmasrlon mwet koluk. Kowos in kalem inmasrlolos oana itu su tolak inkusrao,

that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God, unblemished in the midst of a generation crooked and perverse, among whom ye do appear as luminaries in the world,

16 ke kowos sulkakunelik kas in moul nu selos. Kowos fin oru ouinge, ac fah oasr sripen yukin luk keiwos in Len lun Christ, mweyen ma inge ac fah akkalemye lah kemkatu luk ac orekma luk yuruwos tia wangin sripa.

the word of life holding forth, for rejoicing to me in regard to a day of Christ, that not in vain did I run, nor in vain did I labour;

17 Sahp srah keik ac enenu in ukwiyukla oana sie mwe kite fin lulalfongi lowos ma kowos kisakin nu sin God. Fin ouinge, nga engan ac kut nukewa fah tukeni insewowo.

but if also I am poured forth upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and joy with you all,

18 In lumah sac pacna, kowos in oayapa engan, ac wiyu insewowo.

because of this do ye also rejoice and joy with me.

19 Fin ou lungse lun Leum Jesus, nga finsrak mu nga in supwalot Timothy nu yuruwos in pacl na sa, tuh pweng keiwos in ku in akkeyeyuyak.

And I hope, in the Lord Jesus, Timotheus to send quickly to you, that I also may be of good spirit, having known the things concerning you,

20 El mukefanna pa oana nga in nunku yohk keiwos.

for I have no one like-minded, who sincerely for the things concerning you will care,

21 Mwet nukewa saya uh nunkalana ke ma lalos sifacna, ac tia ke sripa lun Jesus Christ.

for the whole seek their own things, not the things of the Christ Jesus,

22 Ac kowos sifacna etal ac akpwayei lah arulana yohk sripal, ac lah nga el tukeni orekma ke sripen Wosasu oana sie papa ac wen se natul.

and the proof of him ye know, that as a child [serveth] a father, with me he did serve in regard to the good news;

23 Ke ma inge nga finsrak mu nga in sa na supwalot nu yuruwos, tukun nga konauk lah mea ac sikyak nu sik.

him, indeed, therefore, I hope to send, when I may see through the things concerning me — immediately;

24 Ac nga arulana lulalfongi lah fin ou lungse lun Leum, nga ac ku in sa pac fahsrot.

and I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall quickly come.

25 Nga tuh nunku mu fal pac nga in supwalot Epaphroditus, su ma wiasr in lulalfongi, su kowos supwalma in aol kowos kasreyu. El wiyu orekma ac tu siskuk in lain ma koluk.

And I thought [it] necessary Epaphroditus — my brother, and fellow-workman, and fellow-soldier, and your apostle and servant to my need — to send unto you,

26 El arulana ke tari liye kowos nukewa, ac el arulana supwarla lah kowos lohng mu el tuh mas.

seeing he was longing after you all, and in heaviness, because ye heard that he ailed,

27 Aok, pwaye lah el tuh mas ac lukunna misa. Tusruktu God El kulang nu sel, ac tia el mukena a nu sik pac, mweyen ke El sruokya moul lal oru asor lulap tia sunyu.

for he also ailed nigh to death, but God did deal kindly with him, and not with him only, but also with me, that sorrow upon sorrow I might not have.

28 Ma inge liksreni na purakak nunak luk in supwalot nu yuruwos, tuh kowos in sifil enganak ke kowos liyalak, ac asor luk fah wanginla.

The more eagerly, therefore, I did send him, that having seen him again ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful;

29 Ke ma inge, kowos in eisal ke engan, oana sie mwet lili in Christ. Akkalemye sunak lowos nu selos nukewa su oana el,

receive him, therefore, in the Lord, with all joy, and hold such in honour,

30 mweyen el pilesrala moul lal ac apkuran in misa ke sripen orekma lun Christ, in kasreyu ke ma su kowos tia ku in kasreyu kac.

because on account of the work of the Christ he drew near to death, having hazarded the life that he might fill up your deficiency of service unto me.
