Vafilipi 4
1 Ndava yeniyo valongo vangu vaganwa, ninogela neju kuvalola. Nyenye ndi luheku lwangu na njingwa ndi mkangamala kuyima mukuwungana na Bambu nyenye vaganwa vangu.
So that, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, thus stand fast in [the] Lord, beloved.
2 Nikuvayupa neju veve Eodio na veve Suntike, mutama mukuyelewana ngati valongo mu Bambu.
I exhort Euodia, and exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in [the] Lord;
3 Mlongo wangu msadikika, nikuyupa uvatangatila vadala ava, ndava vahengili lihengu la kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina pamonga nene na Kilementi vahenga lihengu vayangu mahina gavi gayandikwi muchitabu cha kulama.
yea, I ask thee also, true yokefellow, assist them, who have contended along with me in the glad tidings, with Clement also, and my other fellow-labourers, whose names [are] in [the] book of life.
4 Hinu muheka magono goha, mukuwungana na Bambu! Niwuyila kujova muheka!
Rejoice in [the] Lord always: again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Ungolongondi winu umanyikanayi pavandu voha. Bambu avi papipi kubwela.
Let your gentleness be known of all men. The Lord [is] near.
6 Mkotoka kung'ahika ndava ya lijambu loloha, nambu mukila chindu muyupa kwa Chapanga kwa gala gemwigana na kumsengusa magono goha.
Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
7 Ndi uteke wewihuma kwa Chapanga, weupita luhala lwoha lwa vandu yati uyunga bwina mitima na luhala lwinu mukuwunga na Kilisitu Yesu.
and the peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus.
8 Pamonga na ago, valongo vangu mukamula mambu gabwina na gegiganikiwa kulumbiwa, mambu ga chakaka mambu gabwina, mambu gegakumganisa Chapanga, mambu gabwina na gegitopesa.
For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things [are] true, whatsoever things [are] noble, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] amiable, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue and if any praise, think on these things.
9 Muhenga mambu gemuwuliwi kuhuma kwangu, mambu gemuyuwini nikugajova na kulola nikugahenga. Na Chapanga mweakuvapela vandu uteke yati ivya pamonga na nyenye.
What ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these things do; and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 Nihekili neju mukuwungana na Bambu ndava munikumbwiki kavili kujova chakaka mukunikumbuka magono goha nambu mwadindiwi lepi mlyangu wa kulangisa lijambu lenilo.
But I rejoiced in [the] Lord greatly, that now however at length ye have revived your thinking of me, though surely ye did also think [of me], but lacked opportunity.
11 Nijova lepi hinu ndava nigana chindu, muni nijiwulili kukola vindu vyenivili navyu.
Not that I speak as regards privation, for as to me I have learnt in those circumstances in which I am, to be satisfied in myself.
12 Nimanyi kuvya vindu vyamahele na nimanyili kuvya na vindu videbe. Nijiwuli mambu goha kuyukuta amala kuvya na njala kuvya na vindu vyamahele amala kubela kuvya navyo.
I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound. In everything and in all things I am initiated both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer privation.
13 Nihotola kuhenga mambu goha mu njila ya Kilisitu mweakunipela makakala.
I have strength for all things in him that gives me power.
14 Nambu, mukitili chabwina kuvya pamonga na nene mu mang'ahiso gangu.
But ye have done well in taking part in my affliction.
15 Nyenye Vafilipi mwavene mmanyili kutumbula kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina, penawuka Makedonia, nga vene nyenye ndi msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu mwemwanitangatili, mewawa nga mwavene ndi mwemwavili pamonga na nene mukupokela vindu na kuvatangatila vandu vangi.
And know also ye, O Philippians, that in [the] beginning of the gospel, when I came out of Macedonia, no assembly communicated [anything] to me in [the] way of giving and receiving save ye alone;
16 Hati panatamayi ku Tesalonike mwaniletilii vindu vya kunitangatila pamahele.
for also in Thessalonica once and even twice ye sent to me for my need.
17 Mbwitu kujova kuvya nilonda kupokela njombi, nambu nigana mota iyonjokeseka mumitima yinu ya bwina.
Not that I seek gift, but I seek fruit abounding to your account.
18 Hinu, nimali kupokela vindu vyoha vyemnipeli, kavili ndi neju kuliku chenaganili. Ndi nivii na kila chindu muni hinu Epafloditi amali kuniletela njombi zinu, njombi zenizi ndi ngati luteta lwelunungalila bwina yeyidakiliwi na kumganisa Chapanga.
But I have all things in full supply and abound; I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things [sent] from you, an odour of sweet savour, an acceptable sacrifice, agreeable to God.
19 Hinu Chapanga wangu, kuhuma muvindu vyamahele vyeavilinavyo, yati akuvapela kila chindu chemwigana mu njila ya Yesu Kilisitu.
But my God shall abundantly supply all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
But to our God and Father [be] glory to the ages of ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Nikuvajambusa vandu voha va Chapanga vevavi vandu va Kilisitu Yesu. Valongo vevavi pamonga na nene bahapa vakuvajambusa.
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who [are] with me salute you.
22 Vandu voha va Chapanga apa, neju vala vevitama munyumba ya Nkosi wa ku Loma, mewa vakuvajambusa.
All the saints salute you, and specially those of the household of Caesar.
23 Nikuvayupila ubwina wa Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu uvya na mwavoha Ena.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.
