Filipiana 2
1 Koa raha misy famporisihana ao amin’ i Kristy, raha misy fampiononana avy amin’ ny fitiavana, raha misy firaisana amin’ ny Fanahy, raha misy famindram-po sy fiantrana,
If, then, any exhortation [is] in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
2 dia tanteraho ny fifaliako, mba hiraisanareo saina, miray fitiavana, miray fo, miray hevitra,
fulfil ye my joy, that ye may mind the same thing — having the same love — of one soul — minding the one thing,
3 tsy manao na inona na inona amin’ ny fifampiandaniana, na mandrani-tena foana fa amin’ ny fanetren-tena dia aoka samy hanao ny namany ho mihoatra noho ny tenany.
nothing in rivalry or vain-glory, but in humility of mind one another counting more excellent than yourselves —
4 Aza samy mihevitra ny azy ihany, fa samy ny an’ ny namany koa.
each not to your own look ye, but each also to the things of others.
5 Aoka ho ao aminareo izao saina izao, izay tao amin’ i Kristy Jesosy koa,
For, let this mind be in you that [is] also in Christ Jesus,
6 Izay, na dia nanana ny endrik’ Andriamanitra aza, dia tsy nataony ho zavatra hofikiriny mafy ny fitoviana amin’ Andriamanitra,
who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not robbery to be equal to God,
7 fa nofoanany ny tenany tamin’ ny nakany ny endriky ny mpanompo sy nahatongavany ho manam-pitoviana amin’ ny olona;
but did empty himself, the form of a servant having taken, in the likeness of men having been made,
8 ary rehefa hita fa nanan-tarehy ho olona Izy, dia nanetry tena ka nanaiky hatramin’ ny fahafatesana, dia ilay fahafatesana tamin’ ny hazo fijaliana.
and in fashion having been found as a man, he humbled himself, having become obedient unto death — death even of a cross,
9 Koa izany no nanandratan’ Andriamanitra Azy indrindra sy nanomezany Azy ny anarana izay ambony noho ny anarana rehetra,
wherefore, also, God did highly exalt him, and gave to him a name that [is] above every name,
10 mba ho amin’ ny anaran’ i Jesosy no handohalehan’ ny lohalika rehetra, na ny any an-danitra, na ny etỳ an-tany, na ny any ambanin’ ny tany,
that in the name of Jesus every knee may bow — of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth —
11 sy haneken’ ny lela rehetra fa Jesosy Kristy no Tompo ho voninahitr’ Andriamanitra Ray.
and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Koa amin’ izany, ry malalako, tahaka ny nanekenareo mandrakariva, tsy fony teo aminareo ihany aho, fa ankehitriny dia bebe kokoa aza raha tsy eo aho, miasà amin’ ny tahotra ny ny hovitra hahatanteraka ny famonjena anareo.
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 Fa Andriamanitra no miasa ao anatinareo na ny fikasana na ny fanaovana hahatanteraka ny sitrapony.
for God it is who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
14 Ataovy ny zavatra rehetra amin’ ny tsi-fimonomononana sy ny tsi-fisalasalana,
All things do without murmurings and reasonings,
15 mba ho tsy manan-tsiny sady tsy misy fitaka ianareo, dia zanak’ Andriamanitra tsy manana adidy eo amin’ ny firenena meloka sy maditra, izay isehoanareo tahaka ny fanazavana eo amin’ izao tontolo izao,
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 mitana ny tenin’ ny fiainana, mba hisy ho reharehako amin’ ny andron’ i Kristy, ka tsy ho nihazakazaka foana aho na nisasatra foana.
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 Eny, na dia haidina ho fanatitra aidina eo amin’ ny fanatitra ny fisoronan’ ny finoanareo aza aho, dia faly ka miara-mifaly aminareo rehetra.
but if also I am poured forth upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and joy with you all,
18 Ary aoka izany no hampifaly anareo koa, ary miaraha mifaly amiko.
because of this do ye also rejoice and joy with me.
19 Nefa manantena ao amin’ i Jesosy Tompo aho fa haniraka an’ i Timoty faingana ho atỳ aminareo, mba hifaliako koa, rehefa fantatro ny toetrareo.
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 Fa tsy manana olona mitovy fanahy amiko aho na dia iray akory aza, izay hazoto hiahy anareo.
for I have no one like-minded, who sincerely for the things concerning you will care,
21 Fa izy rehetra dia samy mitady ny azy avy, fa tsy ny an’ i Jesosy Kristy;
for the whole seek their own things, not the things of the Christ Jesus,
22 izy kosa dia fantatrareo fa lehilahy voazaha toetra, fa efa niara-nanompo tamiko teo amin’ ny filazantsara, tahaka ny zanaka manompo ny rainy.
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 Ary izy no antenaiko hirahina faingana, rehefa hitako izay ho toetro.
him, indeed, therefore, I hope to send, when I may see through the things concerning me — immediately;
24 Fa matoky ao amin’ ny Tompo aho fa ny tenako dia mbola ho avy faingana koa.
and I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall quickly come.
25 Nefa nihevitra aho fa tokony hampandehaniko hankatỳ aminareo Epafrodito, rahalahiko sady mpiray asa amiko no miaramila namako ary irakareo sy mpanompo hanome izay nilaiko.
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 Fa manina anareo rehetra izy ka difotra alahelo, satria efa renareo fa narary izy.
seeing he was longing after you all, and in heaviness, because ye heard that he ailed,
27 Eny, fa narary saiky maty tokoa izy; nefa Andriamanitra namindra fo taminy, ary tsy taminy ihany, fa tamiko koa, fandrao hanana alahelo mifanontona aho.
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 Koa nazoto kokoa haniraka azy aho, mba hifalianareo, rehefa hitanareo indray izy, ary mba ho afaka alahelo kokoa aho.
The more eagerly, therefore, I did send him, that having seen him again ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful;
29 Koa raiso ao amin’ ny Tompo izy amin’ ny fifaliana indrindra, ary omeo voninahitra izay olona tahaka izany;
receive him, therefore, in the Lord, with all joy, and hold such in honour,
30 fa saiky maty izy noho ny asan’ i Kristy sady nanao ny ainy tsy ho zavatra mba hanefa izay tsy vitanareo tamin’ ny fanompoana ahy.
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.
