Bafilipi 4
1 Yango wana, bandeko mpe balingami na ngai, bino oyo nazali na posa makasi ya komona lisusu, bino oyo bozali esengo mpe motole na ngai, botikala ngwi kati na Nkolo.
Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2 Nasengi na Evodi mpe na Sentishe ete bazala na makanisi moko kati na Nkolo.
I appeal to Euodia and I appeal to Syntyche to agree in the Lord.
3 Solo, nasengi lisusu na yo moninga na ngai ya motema kati na mosala: sunga basi oyo, pamba te babundaki mpo na Sango Malamu, elongo na ngai, Klema mpe baninga mosusu ya mosala oyo bakombo na bango ekomama kati na buku ya bomoi.
Yes, I ask you also, true companion, 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 Bosepelaka tango nyonso kati na Nkolo; nazongeli yango lisusu: bosepelaka!
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Tika ete boboto na bino eyebana na bato nyonso. Nkolo akomi pene.
Let your gentleness be evident to all people. The Lord is near.
6 Bomitungisaka ata na likambo moko te; kasi na makambo nyonso, botalisaka baposa na bino epai ya Nzambe na nzela ya losambo, ya mabondeli elongo na matondi.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 Bongo kimia ya Nzambe, oyo eleki bososoli nyonso ekobatela mitema na bino mpe makanisi na bino kati na Yesu-Klisto.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Meshikha Yeshua.
8 Bandeko, mpo na kosukisa, tika ete makambo nyonso oyo ezali ya solo, kitoko, sembo, peto, makambo oyo bato bakoki kolinga, kosepela na yango, kolula mpe kokumisa ezala tina ya makanisi na bino.
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 any praise, think on these things.
9 Bosalela makambo nyonso oyo boyekolaki, bozwaki, boyokaki mpe bomonaki epai na ngai; bongo Nzambe ya kimia akozala elongo na bino.
And the things you learned and received and heard and saw in me, do these things. And the God of peace will be with you.
10 Nazalaki penza na esengo mingi kati na Nkolo, wana botalisaki ngai lisusu bolingo na bino. Solo, bozalaki kokanisa kosunga ngai, kasi bozangaki nde libaku mpo na kokokisa yango.
Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly that at last you have revived your concern for me; in which you were indeed concerned, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Nalobi bongo te mpo ete nazali kokelela, pamba te nayekola kosepela na oyo nazali na yango.
I'm not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.
12 Nayebi kobika na tango ya kokelela, mpe nayebi kobika na tango ya bozwi. Kati na makambo nyonso mpe na tango nyonso, nayekola kozala na esengo: ezala soki nazali na bilei to nazangi yango, ezala soki nazali na bozwi to nakeleli.
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret, whether full or hungry, whether having a lot or being in need.
13 Nazali na makoki ya kosala makambo nyonso na nzela na Ye oyo apesaka ngai makasi.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 Nzokande bosalaki malamu, wana bosanganaki na pasi na ngai.
Still, you have done well to share my hardship.
15 Bino bato ya Filipi, boyebi malamu ete, na ebandeli ya mosala na ngai ya koteya Sango Malamu, wana nalongwaki na Masedwane, ata Lingomba moko te esanganaki na ngai na nzela ya lisungi, longola kaka bino.
And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 Tango mpe nazalaki na Tesalonika, botindelaki ngai mbala mibale lisungi ya biloko oyo nazalaki na yango na bosenga.
For even in Thessalonica you sent me aid twice.
17 Ezali te ete nazali koluka makabo kowuta epai na bino, kasi nazali koluka ete bambuma ya bolamu na bino efuluka lisusu koleka.
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your account.
18 Natatoli ete nasili kozwa biloko ebele penza mpe nakomi na yango ebele koleka, awa nazwi, na maboko ya Epafrodite, makabo oyo botindelaki ngai; yango ezali lokola malasi ya solo kitoko, mbeka oyo Nzambe andimi mpe oyo ezali kosepelisa Ye.
But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 Mpe Nzambe na ngai akokokisa baposa na bino kolanda bomengo ya nkembo na Ye kati na Yesu-Klisto.
And my God will supply all your needs according to his glorious riches in Meshikha Yeshua.
20 Tika ete nkembo ezonga mpo na libela na libela epai na Nzambe oyo azali Tata na biso! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Bopesa mbote epai ya basantu nyonso kati na Yesu-Klisto. Bandeko oyo bazali awa elongo na ngai batindeli bino mbote.
Greet every saint in Meshikha Yeshua. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 Basantu nyonso batindeli bino mbote, mingi-mingi ba-oyo bazali ya ndako ya mokonzi Sezare.
All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
23 Tika ete ngolu ya Nkolo Yesu-Klisto ezala elongo na molimo na bino!
The grace of the Lord Yeshua Meshikha be with your spirit.
