Filimoni 1
1 Nene Pauli, mkungiwa ndava ya kumuhengela Yesu Kilisitu, pamonga na Timoti mlongo witu, tikuyandikila veve Filimoni, muhenga lihengu muyitu na nkozi muyitu mwatikuganili,
Paul, a prisoner of Messiah Yeshua, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,
2 na msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu vevikonganeka munyumba yaku, pamonga na mlumbu witu Afia, na manjolinjoli muyitu Alikipo.
and to Apphia our sister, to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the congregation in your house:
3 Tikuvaganila uteke na ubwina kuhuma kwa Chapanga Dadi witu na Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
4 Lukumbi lwoha penimyupa Chapanga, nikukumbuka veve Filimoni na kumsengusa Chapanga,
I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
5 muni niyuwana chauyimili musadika kwa Bambu witu Yesu na uganu kwa vandu voha va Chapanga.
hearing of your love, and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Yeshua, and toward all the kadoshim;
6 Niyupa, kuvya kwinu musadika pamonga na veve, ukukita umanya kila chindu chabwina chetivili nachu mukuwungana na Bambu witu Kilisitu.
that the fellowship of your faith may become effective, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in you in Messiah.
7 Mlongo, uganu waku uletili luheku luvaha na kukangamalisa mtima neju! Na veve usangalwisi mitima ya vandu va Chapanga.
For I have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the kadoshim have been refreshed through you, brother.
8 Nene namlongo waku mukuwunga na Kilisitu nganihotwili kukulagiza changali wogohi ukita chauganikiwa kukita.
Therefore, though I have all boldness in Messiah to command you that which is appropriate,
9 Nambu ndava ya uganu, mbanga nikuyupe. Nikita chenichi pamonga nene Pauli mwanivii nagogo, na hinu mkungiwa ndava ya kumhengela Kilisitu Yesu.
yet on the basis of love I rather appeal, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Messiah Yeshua.
10 Hinu, nina luyupu kwaku kumvala Onesimo mweavili mwana vangu kwa kuwungana na Kilisitu. Muni navili dadi waki wa chimpungu petavili mchifungu.
I appeal to you for my child, whom I have become the father of in my chains, Onesimus,
11 Pakutumbula apo avili lepi na lihengu kwaku nambu hinu ana lihengu kwa veve na nene mewa.
who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.
12 Hinu nikumuwuyisa kwaku, pamonga nene nikumgana neju.
I am sending back to you, him who is my very heart,
13 Nigana atama na nene apa anitangatila pahala paku veve, lukumbi penivili mchifungu ndava ya kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina.
whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
14 Nikita lepi chindu chochoha changali kuyidakila veve. Naganili veve ubwela kwa kugana kwaku na lepi kwa kung'ang'aniswa.
But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
15 Pangi Onesimo awukili kwaku lukumbi lutali, muni uhotola kavili kuvya na veve magono goha. (aiōnios g166)
For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while, that you would have him forever, (aiōnios g166)
16 Hinu mwene mvanda lepi kavili nambu mbwina kuliku mvanda. Mwene hinu ndi mlongo witu mganu. Ndi mbwina kwa nene na kwaku yati ivya mbwina neju, muni mwene ndi mundu ngati tete na mlongo witu mukuwungana na Bambu.
no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
17 Nambu, ukuniwona nene namuhenga lihengu muyaku hinu ndi mpokela Onesimo ngati ukunipokela nene.
If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
18 Ngati akubudili chindu, amala atolili chindu chaku, nene yati nikuwuyisila.
But if he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, put that to my account.
19 Nene Pauli nikuyandikila kwa chiwoko changu namwene yati nikulipa. Kangi nigana lepi nikukumbusa kuvya veve una chindu cheuganikiwa kuniwuyisila ndi wumi waku.
I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).
20 Hinu mlongo wangu, nikitila lijambu lenilo ndava ya Bambu, lisangalusa mtima wangu, ngati mlongo mukuwungana na Kilisitu.
Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Messiah.
21 Niyandika kuni nihuvalila kuvya yati wiyidakila luyupu lwangu, kavili nimanyili kuvya yati ukita hati neju ya ago genikuyupa.
Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
22 Pamonga na aga, nitendelekela chumba cha kugona, muni mukuyupa kwinu Chapanga, yati akuniwuyisa kavili kwinu.
Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
23 Epafla, mweakungiwi pamonga na nene ndava ya kumhengela Kilisitu Yesu, akukujambusa.
Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Messiah Yeshua, greets you,
24 Mewawa Maluko na Alistako na Dema na Luka, vahenga lihengu vayangu, vakuvajambusa.
as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 Nikuvaganila mwavoha nyenye ubwina wa Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu.
The grace of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with your spirit.
