KwabaseFiliphi 4
1 Ngakho, bazalwane bami abathandekayo labalangathwayo, intokozo lomqhele wami, manini liqine ngokunjalo eNkosini, bathandekayo.
Bhai ashaalongo ajangunji bhungumpinganga, ngunalokolila kummonanga kabhili, mmanganyanji nninginji kuangalala kwangu, na shilemba shangu, bhai nnapinjikwanga kwiishimilika nkulundana na Bhakulungwa, mmanganya ashaambwiga ajangu.
2 Ngiyamncenga uYuwodiya, njalo ngiyamncenga uSintike, ukuthi babe lomqondo munye eNkosini.
Ngunakwaashondelesheyanga a Eudiya na a Shintike kuti bhaelewananje nkulundana na Bhakulungwa.
3 Ngiyakucela-ke lawe, mnakwethu oqotho, siza labo abesifazana, abasebenza kakhulu kanye lami evangelini, kanye loKlementi, lezinye izisebenzi kanye lami, amabizo azo asencwadini yempilo.
Na mmwe apwanga, ngunakumpinga mwaajangutilanje bhene bhanabhakongwebho, pabha bhashitendanga liengo lya lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone pamo na nne, na a Kelementi na bhatumishi ajangunji bhowe, bhene bhajandikwenje mena gabhonji nshitabhu sha gumi.
4 Thokozani eNkosini njalonjalo; ngiyaphinda ngithi: Thokozani.
Bhai, nng'angalalanje nkulundana na Bhakulungwa mobha gowe, kabhili nguti, nng'angalalanje!
5 Ukubekezela kwenu kakwaziwe yibo bonke abantu. INkosi iseduze.
Kwiitimalika kwenunji kumanyishe na bhandu bhowe. Bhakulungwa bhali tome na bhuja.
6 Lingakhathazeki ngalutho, kodwa ezintweni zonke, izicelo zenu kazaziwe kuNkulunkulu ngomkhuleko langonxuso kanye lokubonga,
Shindu shoshowe shinampanganje lipamba, ikabhe kwa kila shindu kwa juga na tenda eja kwa a Nnungu, na itupinga imanyishe na a Nnungu.
7 lokuthula kukaNkulunkulu, okudlula ukuqedisisa konke, kuzalondoloza inhliziyo zenu lemicabango yenu kuKristu Jesu.
Na ulele gwa a Nnungu upita lunda lowe, shigunngoyanje mitima jenunji na ndumbililo yenunji, nkulundana na a Kilishitu Yeshu.
8 Elokucina, bazalwane, konke okuliqiniso, konke okuhloniphekayo, konke okulungileyo, konke okuhlambulukileyo, konke okuhle, konke okulodumo oluhle, uba kukhona okuhle njalo uba kukhona okudumisekayo, nakanani ngakho lokhu;
Kungai, ashaalongo ajangunji, yoyowe ili ya kweli, na yoyowe ili ya ishima, na yoyowe ili ya aki, na yoyowe ili ya mmbone, na yoyowe ili ya konja, na yoyowe ya iniywa ukoto, na upagwaga uguja gogowe, nnganishiyanje yeneyo.
9 lelakufundayo njalo lakwemukela futhi lakuzwa laselikubona kimi, zenzeni lezizinto; loNkulunkulu wokuthula uzakuba lani.
Ntendanje gowe gumwijigenyenje na poshela kopoka kwangu nne, gumpilikenenje nilibheleketa na kugabhona ntendanje genego. Na Bhalabho a Nnungu bha ulele shibhabhe na mmanganya.
10 Kodwa ngathokoza kakhulu eNkosini, ukuthi khathesi selize lavuselela ukunginanzelela, ebelinanzelela kambe, kodwa laswela ithuba.
Nkulundana na Bhakulungwa njiangalala kaje kubhona kuti, kungai nnangumbushilanga kabhili, kweli mwangumbushilangaga, ikabheje nkapatangaga malanga ga tenda shindu.
11 Kakusikho ukuthi ngitsho mayelana lenswelo; ngoba mina sengifundile ukuthi ngeneliswe ezintweni engikuzo.
Ngaabheleketa nneyo kwa ligongo lya pinga indu, pabha njikwiijiganya togolela na indu ingwete.
12 Ngiyakwazi konke ukuthotshiswa, futhi ngiyakwazi ukuba lokunengi kakhulu; kukho konke lezintweni zonke sengifundisiwe futhi ukusutha lokulamba, lokuba lokunengi kakhulu lokuswela.
Nikumanyi kumalilwa na kushulushilwa. Njikwiyobhelesheya kutogolela kwa kila shindu, nkujukuta eu nkutotoka, kushulushilwa eu kumalilwa.
13 Ngingakwenza konke ngoKristu engiqinisa.
Ngunakombola kutenda gowe, kupitila kwa a Kilishitu bhamba mashili.
14 Kodwa lenze kuhle ngokuhlanganyela ekuhluphekeni kwami.
Nkali nneyo mwashinkutendanga ya mmbone kwa nyangutila nshilaje shangu.
15 Liyazi futhi lani, beFiliphi, ukuthi ekuqaleni kwevangeli, ekusukeni kwami eMakedoniya, kwakungekho bandla elahlanganyela lami endabeni yokupha lokwemukela, ngaphandle kwenu lodwa;
Mmanganyanji Bhapilipi mmumanyinji mwaashayenenji kuti, punatandwibhe lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone ngajabhuleje ku Makedonia, mmanganyanji jikape ni likanisha lya lundene na nne, nkushoya na nkuposhela indu.
16 ngoba laseThesalonika lathumela ekusweleni kwami kanye njalo laphinda.
Pabha nkali punaliji ku Teshalonike mwambelenje indu inapingaga, wala nngabha kamo.
17 Kungesikuthi ngidinga isipho, kodwa ngidinga isithelo esengeza isikhwama senu.
Nngabha kuti ngunapingape kuposhela indu yenunji, ikabhe shingupinga kujenjesheka kwa indu ya mmbone intendilenje.
18 Kodwa ngemukele konke njalo ngengezelelwe; ngigcwele, ngengikwemukele kuEpafrodithu izinto ezivela kini, uqhatshi olumnandi, umnikelo owemukelekayo, othabisayo kuNkulunkulu.
Ikabheje, indu yaigwinji numbe ya punda, imwaakamuyenje a Epapulodito kubhambeyo, mboshele. Yene upoi pwili mbuti mbepei ya nunjila, mbepei iposhelwa na ikwanonyela a Nnungu.
19 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wami uzagcwalisa yonke inswelo yenu njengokwenotho yakhe ebukhosini, kuKristu Jesu.
Bhai a Nnungu bhungwatumishila kwa utajili gwabho shibhampanganje kila shinkupinganga, kwa Ukonjelo gwa a Kilishitu Yeshu.
Ukonjelo ubhe kwa Atati a Nnungu bhetu, pitipiti. Amina. (aiōn g165)
21 Bingelelani wonke ongcwele okuKristu Jesu. Abazalwane abalami bayalibingelela.
Mwaalamushilanje bhandunji bhowe bha ukonjelo bhalinginji bha a Kilishitu Yeshu. Ashaalongo bhalinginji na nne apano bhanakunnjumushilanga.
22 Bonke abangcwele bayalibingelela, kodwa ikakhulu labo abendlu kaKesari.
Bhandunji bhowe bha ukonjelo bhanakunnjumushilanga, bhalinginji nnyumba ja a Kaishali.
23 Umusa weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu kawube lani lonke. Ameni.
Nema ja Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu, jibhe na mmanganya.
