फिलिप्पी 1

1 ख्रीष्‍ट येशूका दासहरू पावल र तिमोथीबाट, फिलिप्‍पीमा भएका ख्रीष्‍ट येशूमा अलग गरिएकाहरू सबै, अनि बिशप र डिकनहरूलाई ।

Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Christ Jesus: To all God's people in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the ministers of the Church and their assistants.

2 परमेश्‍वर हाम्रा पिता र प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्‍टबाट तिमीहरूलाई अनुग्रह र शान्ति ।

May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 हर समय तिमीहरूको सम्झना गर्दा, म मेरा परमेश्‍वरलाई धन्यवाद दिन्छु ।

I thank my God at my every remembrance of you--

4 तिमीहरू सबैका निम्ति मेरो हरेक प्रार्थनामा म आनन्दसाथ प्रार्थना गर्दछु ।

always when offering any prayer on behalf of you all, finding a joy in offering it.

5 पहिलो दिनदेखि अहिलेसम्म सुसमाचारमा तिमीहरूको सहभागिताको लागि म धन्यवाद दिन्छु ।

I thank my God, I say, for your cooperation in spreading the Good News, from the time it first came to you even until now.

6 म यो कुरामा निश्‍चित छु, कि तिमीहरूमा यो असल कामलाई प्रारम्भ गर्नुहुनेले येशू ख्रीष्‍टको दिनसम्म यसलाई पुरा गर्न निरन्तरता दिनुहुनेछ ।

For of this I am confident, that He who has begun a good work within you will go on to perfect it in preparation for the day of Jesus Christ.

7 तिमीहरू सबैका निम्ति मैले यस्तो प्रकारले विचार गर्नु मेरो निम्ति उचित छ, किनकि मैले तिमीहरू सबैलाई मेरो हृदयमा राखेको छु । मेरो कैदमा र सुसमाचारको समर्थन एवम् निश्‍चयता दुवैमा तिमीहरू सबै अनुग्रहमा मेरा साझेदारहरू भएका छौ ।

And I am justified in having this confidence about you all, because, both during my imprisonment and when I stand up in defence of the Good News or to confirm its truth, I have you in my heart, sharers as you all are in the same grace as myself.

8 किनकि ख्रीष्‍ट येशूको प्रेमको गहिराइमा म तिमीहरूका निम्ति कति तृष्णा गर्दछु भन्‍ने कुरामा परमेश्‍वर मेरो साक्षी हुनुहुन्छ ।

For God is my witness how I yearn over all of you with tender Christian affection.

9 र मैले यस्तो भन्दै प्रार्थना गरिरहेको छु, कि ज्ञान र सम्पूर्ण समझमा तिमीहरूको प्रेम झनझन प्रशस्त हुँदै जाओस् ।

And it is my prayer that your love may be more and more accompanied by clear knowledge and keen perception, for testing things that differ,

10 म यसको निम्ति प्रार्थना गर्छु, ताकि जे असल छ ती कुराहरू तिमीहरूले पारख गरेर छान्‍न सक । म यसको निम्ति प्रार्थना गर्छु, ताकि तिमीहरू ख्रीष्‍टको दिनमा इमानदार र दोषरहित रहन सक ।

so that you may be men of transparent character, and may be blameless, in preparation for the day of Christ,

11 यो यसको निम्ति पनि हो, ताकि परमेश्‍वरको महिमा र प्रशंसाको निम्ति, येशू ख्रीष्‍टद्वारा आउने धार्मिकताको फलद्वारा तिमीहरू भरिन सक ।

being filled with these fruits of righteousness which come through Jesus Christ-- to the glory and praise of God.

12 भाइ हो, अब तिमीहरूलाई यो थाहा होस् भन्‍ने म चाहन्छु, कि मलाई भएका यी सबै कुराहरूले सुसमाचारलाई धेरै अगाडि बढाउने काम भएको छ ।

Now I would have you know, brethren, that what I have gone through has turned out to the furtherance of the Good News rather than otherwise.

13 किनकि ख्रीष्‍टमा मेरा साङ्लाहरूका विषयमा महलभरिका सारा रक्षकदेखि अरू सबै मानिसलाई थाहा भएको छ ।

And thus it has become notorious among all the Imperial Guards, and everywhere, that it is for the sake of Christ that I am a prisoner;

14 र परमप्रभुमा भएका धेरै भाइहरू मेरा साङ्लाहरूका कारण निडर भएर वचन बोल्ने आँट गर्न झनै बढी उत्साहित भएका छन् ।

and the greater part of the brethren, made confident in the Lord through my imprisonment, now speak of God's Message without fear, more boldly than ever.

15 कसै-कसैले त ईर्ष्या र बेमेलमा, र अरूहरूले सद्‌भावले पनि ख्रीष्‍टको प्रचार गरेका छन् ।

Some indeed actually preach Christ out of envy and contentiousness but there are also others who do it from good will.

16 प्रेमले ख्रीष्‍टको प्रचार गर्नेहरूले सुसमाचारको समर्थन गरेको कारण मलाई यहाँ राखिएको छ भन्‍ने कुरा जान्दछन् ।

These latter preach Him from love to me, knowing that I am here for the defence of the Good News;

17 तर अरूहरूले ख्रीष्‍टको प्रचार स्वार्थ र निष्‍ठाहीन उद्देश्यले गर्दछन् । मेरा यी साङ्लाहरूका अवस्थामा तिनीहरूले मलाई अझै कष्‍ट दिइरहेका छन् भनी तिनीहरू विचार गर्छन् ।

while the others proclaim Him from motives of rivalry, and insincerely, supposing that by this they are embittering my imprisonment.

18 त्यसो भए के त? चाहे बहानामा होस् वा सत्यतामा दुवै तरिकाले ख्रीष्‍टको प्रचार हुन्छ, र म यसैमा रमाउँदछु । हो, म रमाउनेछु ।

What does it matter, however? In any case Christ is preached--either perversely or in honest truth; and in that I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.

19 किनकि मलाई थाहा छ, कि परिणामस्वरूप यसले मेरो निम्ति छुटकारा ल्याउनेछ । तिमीहरूको प्रार्थना र येशू ख्रीष्‍टको आत्माको सहायताको कारण यो हुनेछ ।

For I know that it will result in my salvation through your prayers and a bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

20 मेरो विश्‍वस्त आशा र निश्‍चयताअनुसार, म शर्ममा पर्नेछैनँ । बरु, सारा साहससँगै सधैँ जस्तै र अहिले पनि, चाहे मेरो जीवनद्वारा वा मृत्युद्वारा, ख्रीष्‍ट मेरो शरीरमा उचालिनुहुनेछ भन्‍ने म आशा गर्दछु ।

in fulfilment of my eager expectation and hope that I shall never have reason to feel ashamed, but that by my perfect freedom of speech Christ will be glorified in me, now as always, either by my life or by my death.

21 किनकि मेरो निम्ति जिउनु ख्रीष्‍ट हो, र मर्नु लाभ हो ।

For, with me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

22 तर शरीरमा जिउनाले मेरो परिश्रमबाट प्रतिफल आउँछ भने, कुन कुरालाई चुन्‍ने भन्‍ने कुरा मलाई थाहा छैन ।

But since to live means a longer stay on earth, that implies more labour for me--and not unsuccessful labour; and which I am to choose I cannot tell.

23 किनकि मैले चयन गर्नुपर्ने यी दुवै कुराद्वारा म बिचमा परेको छु । म बिदा भएर ख्रीष्‍टसँग हुने इच्छा गर्दछु, जुनचाहिँ झनै असल कुरा हो ।

I am in a dilemma, my earnest desire being to depart and be with Christ, for that is far, far better.

24 तर तिमीहरूका निम्ति शरीरमा रहनुचाहिँ धेरै आवश्यक छ ।

But for your sakes it is more important that I should still remain in the body.

25 यस कुरामा म निश्‍चित भएको कारणले म जान्दछु, कि विश्‍वासमा तिमीहरूको प्रगति र आनन्दको निम्ति म तिमीहरू सँग-सँगै रहेर निरन्तरता दिनेछु ।

I am convinced of this, and I know that I shall remain, and shall go on working side by side with you all, to promote your progress and joy in the faith;

26 परिणामस्वरूप, तिमीहरूकहाँ मेरो पुनः उपस्थितिको कारण तिमीहरूले ख्रीष्‍ट येशूलाई मेरो निम्ति महिमा दिने काम अझ धेरै प्रशस्त हुनेछ ।

so that, as Christians, you may have additional reason for glorying about me as the result of my being with you again.

27 ख्रीष्‍टको सुसमाचारको निम्ति योग्य हुने किसिमले मात्र आफ्नो जीवनयापन गर । चाहे म तिमीहरूलाई भेट्न आऊँ वा म उपस्थित नहोऊँ, यो गर, ताकि तिमीहरू एउटै आत्मामा दृढ भएर खडा भएका छौ भनेर तिमीहरूका विषयमा मैले सुन्‍न पाऊँ । सुसमाचारको विश्‍वासको निम्ति तिमीहरू मिलेर एउटै प्राणको भएर कडा परिश्रम गरिरहेका छौ भनेर सुन्‍ने मेरो चाहना छ ।

Only let the lives you live be worthy of the Good News of the Christ, in order that, whether I come and see you or, being absent, only hear of you, I may know that you are standing fast in one spirit and with one mind, fighting shoulder to shoulder for the faith of the Good News.

28 र तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूले गरेका कुनै कुराहरूबाट भयभीत नहोओ । यो तिनीहरूका निम्ति तिनीहरूको विनाशको चिह्न हो । तर तिमीहरूका निम्ति यो तिमीहरूको मुक्‍तिको चिह्न हो, र यो परमेश्‍वरबाट आएको हो ।

Never for a moment quail before your antagonists. Your fearlessness will be to them a sure token of impending destruction, but to you it will be a sure token of your salvation--a token coming from God.

29 किनकि ख्रीष्‍टको निम्ति यो तिमीहरूलाई दिइएको छ, उहाँमाथि विश्‍वास गर्न मात्र होइन, तर उहाँको निम्ति कष्‍ट भोग्‍न पनि ।

For you have had the privilege granted you on behalf of Christ--not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on His behalf;

30 किनकि जे तिमीहरूले ममा देख्यौ र अहिले मसँग छ भनी सुन्दछौ, त्यही सङ्घर्ष तिमीहरूसँग छ ।

maintaining, as you do, the same kind of conflict that you once saw in me and which you still hear that I am engaged in.
