Fiiliphisiyuus 1
1 Phaawulosii fi Xiimotewos tajaajiltoota Kiristoos Yesuus irraa, Gara warra karaa Kiristoos Yesuusiin qulqulloota taʼan kanneen Phaaphaasotaa fi daaqonoota wajjin Fiiliphisiyuus keessa jiraatan hundaatti:
Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ; to all the saints in Christ Jesus, who are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons.
2 Abbaa keenya Waaqaa fi Yesuus Kiristoos Gooftaa biraa ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu.
Grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Ani yeroo isin yaadadhu hunda Waaqa koo nan galateeffadha.
I give thanks to my God in every remembrance of you,
4 Ani kadhannaa hunda keessaniif kadhadhu keessatti yeroo hunda gammachuun nan kadhadha;
Always in all my prayers making supplication for you all, with joy;
5 isin guyyaa jalqabaatii hamma ammaatti wangeela lallabuu keessatti hirmaattaniirtuutii;
For your communication in the gospel of Christ from the first day until now.
6 inni hojii gaarii isin keessatti jalqabe sun hamma guyyaa Kiristoos Yesuusitti akka raawwatu nan amana.
Being confident of this very thing, that he, who hath begun a good work in you, will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus.
7 Waan isin garaa koo keessa jirtaniif ani waaʼee hunda keessanii akkanatti yaaduun koo anaaf sirrii dha; hidhamuu koo keessattis taʼu yookaan wangeelaaf falmuu kootii fi akka wangeelli cimee dhaabatu gochuu koo keessatti hundi keessan na wajjin ayyaana Waaqaa keessatti hirmaatuutii.
As it is meet for me to think this for you all, for that I have you in my heart; and that in my bands, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my joy.
8 Akka ani jaalala Kiristoos Yesuusiin hammam hunda keessan yaadu Waaqayyo dhuga baatu koo ti.
For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
9 Kadhannaan koo kanaa dha: kunis akka jaalalli keessan beekumsaa fi hubannaa hundaan ittuma fufee baayʼatu,
And this I pray, that your charity may more and more abound in knowledge, and in all understanding:
10 akka isin isa waan hundumaa caalu addaan baaftanii beekuu dandeessanii fi akka isin hamma guyyaa Kiristoosittis qulqullootaa fi warra mudaa hin qabne taataniif,
That you may approve the better things, that you may be sincere and without offence unto the day of Christ,
11 akka ulfinaa fi galata Waaqaatiifis iji qajeelinaa kan karaa Yesuus Kiristoosiin argamuun guutamtaniif.
Filled with the fruit of justice, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
12 Yaa obboloota, wanti narra gaʼe kun dhugumaan wangeela babalʼisuuf gargaaruu isaa akka beektan nan barbaada.
Now, brethren, I desire you should know, that the things which have happened to me, have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel:
13 Kanaanis Kiristoosiif jedhee hidhamuun koo guutummaa masaraatii fi namoota kaan hunda biratti beekameera.
So that my bands are made manifest in Christ, in all the court, and in all other places;
14 Sababii ani hidhameefis obboloota keessaa garri caalaan Gooftaa amanatanii, dubbii Waaqaa sodaa malee dubbachuuf ija jabina guddaa argataniiru.
And many of the brethren in the Lord, growing confident by my bands, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.
15 Namoonni tokko tokko dhugumaan weennoo fi morkiidhaan Kiristoosin lallabu; warri kaan garuu yaada gaariidhaan lallabu.
Some indeed, even out of envy and contention; but some also for good will preach Christ.
16 Warri yaada gaariidhaan lallaban kunneen, akka ani wangeelaaf falmuuf jedhee as kaaʼame beekanii jaalalaan lallabu.
Some out of charity, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
17 Warri weennoo fi morkiidhaan lallaban immoo utuu garaa qulqulluun hin taʼin, mana hidhaa keessatti rakkina natti cimsuuf jedhanii fedhii ofittummaatiin Kiristoosin lallabu.
And some out of contention preach Christ not sincerely: supposing that they raise affliction to my bands.
18 Yoos wanni kun maal qaba ree? Wanni barbaachisaan fakkeessuunis taʼu yookaan dhugaan karaa kam iyyuu Kiristoos lallabamuu isaa ti. Sababii kanaaf ani akka malee nan gammada. Eeyyee ani ittuma fufee nan gammada;
But what then? So that by all means, whether by occasion, or by truth, Christ be preached: in this also I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
19 akka wanni narra gaʼe kun karaa kadhannaa keessaniitii fi karaa gargaarsa Hafuura Yesuus Kiristoosiin gara furamaatti naa geeddaramu nan beekaatii.
For I know that this shall fall out to me unto salvation, through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 Ani akkuma yeroo kaanii ammas jireenyaanis taʼu yookaan duʼaan ija jabinaan dubbachuun koo akka Kiristoos dhagna koo keessatti ulfina argatuuf malee karaa kamiin iyyuu akka hin qaanofneef baayʼisee nan hawwa; nan abdadhas.
According to my expectation and hope; that in nothing I shall be confounded, but with all confidence, as always, so now also shall Christ be magnified in my body, wither it be by life, or by death.
21 Anaaf jiraachuun Kiristoos; duʼuunis buʼaa dha.
For to me, to live is Christ; and to die is gain.
22 Ani yoo fooniin jiraadhe kun anaaf hojii buʼa qabeessa; garuu maalan filadha? Ani hin beeku!
And if to live in the flesh, this is to me the fruit of labour, and what I shall choose I know not.
23 Ani yaada kana lamaan gidduutti rarraʼeera; ani deemee Kiristoos wajjin jiraachuu nan hawwa; kun waan hunda caalaatii;
But I am straitened between two: having a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the better.
24 isiniif garuu fooniin turuun koo caalaa barbaachisaa dha.
But to abide still in the flesh, is needful for you.
25 Anis kana amanadhee akka isin amantiin guddattanii fi akka isin gammaddaniif hunda keessan bira akka turu, isin wajjinis akka jiraadhun beeka.
And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, and continue with you all, for your furtherance and joy of faith:
26 Kunis ani ammas isin biratti argamuu kootiin of jajuun isin Kiristoos Yesuusitti qabdan sababii kootiin akka baayʼatuuf.
That your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus for me, by my coming to you again.
27 Waan fedhe iyyuu taʼu akka wangeela Kiristoosiif malutti jiraadhaa. Yoos ani dhufee isin arguunis taʼu yookaan fagoo taaʼee waaʼee keessan dhagaʼuu qofaan, akka isin amantii wangeelaatiif jettanii akkuma nama tokkootti tattaaffachuun hafuura tokkoon jabaattanii dhaabattan nan beeka.
Only let your conversation be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you, or, being absent, may hear of you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind labouring together for the faith of the gospel.
28 Isin waanuma tokkoon illee mormitoota keessaniin hin raafaminaa. Kun isaaniif mallattoo badiisaa ti; isiniif immoo mallattoo fayyinaa ti; kunis hojii Waaqaa ti.
And in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this from God:
29 Isin akka Kiristoositti amantan qofa utuu hin taʼin akka isaaf jettanii dhiphattaniifis kun isaaf jechaa isinii kennameeraatii;
For unto you it is given for Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him.
30 kunis walʼaansoo ani keessa ture isa argitan sanaa fi isa ani amma iyyuu keessa jiru kan dhageessan kana keessa darbuutti waan jirtaniifii dha.
Having the same conflict as that which you have seen in me, and now have heard of me.
