Fiiliphisiyuus 3
1 Dhuma irrattis yaa obboloota ko, Gooftaatti gammadaa! Ani waanuma kanaan duraa irra deebiʼee isinii barreessuun na hin dhibu; kun isiniif eegumsa.
As to the rest, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not wearisome, but to you it is necessary.
2 Saroota irraa of eeggadhaa; namoota hammina hojjetan irraa of eeggadhaa; dhagna qabaa sobaa irraas of eeggadhaa.
Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
3 Sababiin isaa nu warri Hafuura Waaqaatiin waaqeffannu, warri Kiristoos Yesuusiin of jajnuu fi warri foon hin amananne dhagna qabanneerraatii;
For we are the circumcision, who in spirit serve God; and glory in Christ Jesus, not having confidence in the flesh.
4 taʼus ani mataan koo amanachuu akkanaatiif sababii qaba. Namni biraa kam iyyuu foon amanachuuf waan sababii qabu yoo of seʼe, ani immoo isa caalaa qaba:
Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other thinketh he may have confidence in the flesh, I more,
5 Ani dhaladhee guyyaa saddeettaffaattin dhagna qabadhe; sanyii Israaʼel keessaas gosa Beniyaam irraa dhaladhe; warra Ibrootaa keessaas Ibricha tokkoo dha; akka seeraattis ani Fariisota keessaa tokko dha;
Being circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; according to the law, a Pharisee:
6 waaʼee hinaaffaa, ani waldaa kiristaanaa ariʼachaan ture; waaʼee qajeelummaa seera eeguun argamuus ani mudaa hin qabu ture.
According to zeal, persecuting the church of God; according to the justice that is in the law, conversing without blame.
7 Garuu waan na fayyadaa ture amma Kiristoosiif jedhee akka waan gatii hin qabneetti nan ilaala.
But the things that were gain to me, the same I have counted loss for Christ.
8 Dhugumaanuu sababii Gooftaa koo Kiristoos Yesuus isa waan hundumaa caalu sana beekuutiif ani waan hundumaa akka waan gatii hin qabneetti nan ilaala. Ani isaaf jedhee waan hundumaa dhabeera; Kiristoosin argachuufis waan hundumaa akka kosiitti nan ilaala;
Furthermore I count all things to be but loss for the excellent knowledge of Jesus Christ my Lord; for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but as dung, that I may gain Christ:
9 kunis qajeelummaa mataa koo kan seera eeguun argamu utuu hin taʼin qajeelummaa Kiristoositti amanuun argamu jechuunis akka ani qajeelummaa Waaqa biraa amantiidhaan dhufu qabaadhee isa keessa jiraadhuuf.
And may be found in him, not having my justice, which is of the law, but that which is of the faith of Christ Jesus, which is of God, justice in faith:
10 Ani Kiristoosii fi humna duʼaa kaʼuu isaa beekuu, dhiphina isaa keessatti hirmaachuu fi duʼa isaatiinis isa fakkaachuu nan barbaada;
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death,
11 akkasiinis ani duʼaa kaʼuu warra duʼanii argachuu nan dandaʼa.
If by any means I may attain to the resurrection which is from the dead.
12 Kiristoos Yesuus waan kan ofii isaa na godhateef anis waan kana harkatti galfachuuf nan fiiga jechuudha malee waan kana hunda argadheera yookaan nama hirʼina hin qabne taʼeera jechuu miti.
Not as though I has already attained, or were already perfect; but I follow after, if I may by any means apprehend, wherein I am also apprehended by Christ Jesus.
13 Yaa obboloota, ani akka waan harkatti isa galfadheetti hin ilaalu. Waan tokko garuu nan godha: Waan na duuba jiru irraanfadhee gara waan fuula koo dura jiruutti nan hiixadha;
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended. But one thing I do: forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before,
14 badhaasa Waaqni Kiristoos Yesuusiin ol samiitti itti na waame sana argachuuf gara kaayyoo sanaatti nan fiiga.
I press towards the mark, to the prize of the supernal vocation of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Nu warri bilchaatoon hundinuu waan akkanaa haa yaadnu. Yoo waan tokko tokko irratti yaada garaa garaa qabaattan garuu kanas Waaqni isinii ibsa.
Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded; and if in any thing you be otherwise minded, this also God will reveal to you.
16 Taʼus waanuma kanaan dura irra geenye sanaan haa jiraannu.
Nevertheless whereunto we are come, that we be of the same mind, let us also continue in the same rule.
17 Yaa obboloota, fakkeenya koo duukaa buʼuudhaan warra kaaniin tokko taʼaa; warra fakkeenya nu isinii kennineen jiraatanis hubadhaa.
Be ye followers of me, brethren, and observe them who walk so as you have our model.
18 Akkuma ani yeroo hedduu isinitti himee fi akkuma ani amma illee imimmaaniin iyyuu isinitti himu, namoonni baayʼeen diinota fannoo Kiristoos taʼanii jiraatuutii.
For many walk, of whom I have told you often (and now tell you weeping), that they are enemies of the cross of Christ;
19 Dhumni isaanii badiisa; Waaqni isaanii garaa isaanii ti; ulfinni isaanii salphina isaaniitiin. Yaadni isaaniis waanuma lafaa irratti hundeeffama.
Whose end is destruction; whose God is their belly; and whose glory is in their shame; who mind earthly things.
20 Nu garuu biyyi keenya samii irra. Fayyisaa achii dhufu, Gooftaa Yesuus Kiristoos eegganna;
But our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ,
21 innis humna waan hunda of jala galfachuu isa dandeessisu sanaan akka dhagni keenya inni dadhabaan dhagna isaa ulfina qabeessa sana fakkaatuuf dhagna keenya ni geeddara.
Who will reform the body of our lowness, made like to the body of his glory, according to the operation whereby also he is able to subdue all things unto himself.
