Vafilipi 4
1 Kuzwaho, mizwale bangu banisaka, kusanga kwangu nimushukwe, cheinzila muzimane chenguzu Nisimwine, balikani banisuni.
Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
2 Nikumbila Evodia, ni kumbila. Sintike, kuti babe ninkulo imwina kwa simwine.
I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
3 Chabusakusima, nikulaela nawe bulyo, mulikanangu ininyadiswa naye: utuse aba banakazi. Mukuti babanyandi name mukuhasanya evangeli hamwina ni Klementi ni bungi bwabalikani banibali kusebeza nabo, basimazina ena Mumbuka ya Buhalo.
Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Tabele Ireeza inako yonse. Hape muniti, nisangalale.
Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”
5 Musiye chishemo chenu chizibwe kubantu. Simwine chiwina hafwihi.
Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Nsanzi ubi nitakazo kuchintu chimwi ni chimwi. Nihakuba bulyo, chimwi ni chimwi chotenda chentapelo ni kukumbila ni kuhempo za kulitumela, usiye inkumpo yako izibwe kwe Ireeza.
In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 Imi ikozo ye Ireeza, Ihitiliza kuzuwisisa konse, kaibabalele inkulo yako ni muhupulo wako mwizina la Jesu Keresite.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
8 Chakumaninikiza, bakwangu, zintu zonse zisimite, zintu zonse zitompeha, chakumanikiza chintu chonse chikutekeha, chakumaniniza chitu chonse chiwolekete, chakumaniniza chitu chonse chijolola, chakumaniniza chintu chonse chisunwa, chakumaniniza mulaezo uzuweka, haiba kwina chintu chishiyeme kakumaniniza, haiba kwina chimwi chiswanela kutembwa, uhupule chezi zintu.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report: if there is any virtue and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
9 Zintu zobalituti, ni zobaamuheli, ni kuzuwa, ni kubona kwangu, utende izi zintu. Imi Ireeza wekozo kabe nawe.
Do the things which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
10 Nina mwi nyakalalo Inkando kwa Simwine, kakuli hanu kumamaninizo chimwapangasicha Impilaelo yenu kwangu. Initi luli mubena Impilaelo kwangu kutazi, kono kana mubena Inako yakunitusa.
But I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your thought for me; in which you did indeed take thought, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Kahena chintu chitokwahala kwangu kumiwambila ezi nintu. Kakuli mukuti nibalituti kulitumelela chinina zintu zamukwa uhi no uhi unina kuuli. nizi inako yakutokwa chintu.
Not that I speak because of lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.
12 Mihape nizi inako yakuba nizitu zingi. Munzila Ihi ne Ihi nimu zintu zonse nibalituti Inkunutu mukuliwa hahulu ni mukufwilwa Inzala, mwinako yakuba ni zingi ni munako yakutokwa zingi.
I know how to be humbled, and I also know how to abound. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need.
13 Ni wola kutenda zintu zingi zingi chenzila yakwe yoniha Inguzu.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
14 Hape linu, ubapangi nenza kuba name kumapalelwi angu.
However you did well that you shared in my affliction.
15 Imi mwizi, inwe mubafilipi, kuti kumatangilo a evangeli, inako inisiya Masodenia, kakwina nkeleke ibali kunitusa mundaba yakuha ni kuamuhela kunde yako wewena.
You yourselves also know, you Philippians, that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no assembly shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 Nanga hanibena mwa Batesalonika, mubatumini ituso yazinitokwa zonse kuhitilila kamwina.
For even in Thessalonica you sent once and again to my need.
17 Kahena kuti ni tokwa impo. Chamukwa winabulyo, nisaka chichelatu cheti chiekeze kuchimuswanela kuwana.
Not that I seek for the gift, but I seek for the fruit that increases to your account.
18 Ni batambuli zintu zonse, minina zingi. Nibahewa zintu zonse. Ni bamuheli kuzwilila kwa Epafrodite zintu zizwakwenu. Impalisa ya aloma ina munko mulotu, chitabelo chiamuhelwe ni kutabisa Ireeza.
But I have all things and abound. I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 Imi Ireeza wangu kezuzize zonse zotokwa kakuya kabufumu bwakwe nikanya ya Jesu Keresite hanukwe.
My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever! Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Mulumelise boonse kwa Jesu Keresite. Bakwetu baninanabo bamilumelisa.
Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 Balumeli bonse kunu bamilumeli, sihulu benzubo ya Sesare.
All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar’s household.
23 Chishemo cha Simwine Jesu Keresite chibe niluhuho lwenu.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
