< Filipian 4 >
1 Przetoż, bracia moi mili i pożądani! radości i korono moja! tak stójcie w Panu, najmilsi moi!
My fellow believers, I love you, and I long for you. You make me happy [MTY], and I am (proud of/pleased with) you. Dear friends, on the basis [of all that I have told you], continue to believe firmly in the Lord doing what I have just taught you.
2 Ewodyi proszę i Syntychy proszę, aby jednegoż rozumienia były w Panu.
I urge [you(sg)], Euodia, and I urge [you(sg)], Syntyche, to again have a peaceful relationship with each other, [because you both have a relationship with] the Lord.
3 Proszę też i cię, towarzyszu wierny! bądź tym na pomoc, które w Ewangielii wespół ze mną pracowały, i z Klemensem i z innymi pomocnikami moimi, których imiona są w księgach żywota.
And, my faithful comrade/partner, I request that you [(sg)] help them [to again have a peaceful relationship with each other], because they have [faithfully proclaimed] the message [about Christ] together with me, [even though many people] have opposed us [(exc)]. They have faithfully proclaimed that message together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names [are] in the book [in which God has written the names of all those people who will] live [forever].
4 Radujcie się zawsze w Panu; znowu mówię, radujcie się.
[Because you have a relationship with] the Lord, always rejoice! I’m saying it again, rejoice!
5 Skromność wasza niech będzie wiadoma wszystkim ludziom; Pan blisko jest.
[Act in such a way that] everyone can know that you are gentle. The Lord is coming soon.
6 Nie troszczcie się o żadną rzecz, ale we wszystkiem przez modlitwę i prośbę z dziękowaniem żądności wasze niech będą znajome u Boga.
Do not worry about anything. Instead, in every situation, pray [to God], tell him what you need, and ask him [to help you] [DOU]. Also thank [him for what he does for you].
7 A pokój Boży, który przewyższa wszelki rozum, będzie strzegł serc waszych i myśli waszych w Chrystusie Jezusie.
As a result, God will enable you not to worry [about anything] [MTY] (OR, God will protect your minds [in every way]) [PRS]. [That is], he will cause you to have [inner] peace [because you have a relationship with] Christ Jesus. You will not be able to understand [PRS] [how you can be so peaceful in such difficult circumstances!]!
8 A dalej mówiąc, bracia, cokolwiek jest prawdziwego, cokolwiek poczciwego, cokolwiek sprawiedliwego, cokolwiek czystego, cokolwiek przyjemnego, cokolwiek chwalebnego, jeźli która cnota i jeźli która chwała, o tem przemyślajcie.
My fellow believers, there is one more thing I [want you to do]. Whatever is true, whatever is worthy of respect, whatever is right, whatever is morally pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is admirable, whatever is good, whatever [deserves] praise, those are the things that you should continually think about.
9 Czegoście się też nauczyli i coście przyjęli, i słyszeli, i widzieli przy mnie, to czyńcie, a Bóg pokoju będzie z wami.
Those things that I have taught you and that you have learned from me, those things that you have heard me [say] and that you have seen me [do], those are the things that you yourselves should continually do. As a result [of your doing those things], God, the one who [causes us to] have [inner] peace, will (be with/bless) you.
10 A uradowałem się wielce w Panu, żeście się już wżdy znowu zazielenili w swojem staraniu o mię, jakoż i staraliście się o to, lecz wam na sposobnym czasie schodziło.
I rejoice greatly [and thank] the Lord because now, after some time, [by sending money to me] you have once again shown that you are concerned about me [EUP]. Indeed, you were concerned about me [all the time], but you had no opportunity [to show that you were concerned about me].
11 Nie żebym to mówił dla niedostatku; bomci się ja nauczył, na tem przestawać, co mam.
I am saying this not because I [am concerned that I] lack things [that I need]. In fact, I have learned to be content in whatever [situation] I am.
12 Umiem i uniżać się, umiem i obfitować; wszędy i we wszystkich rzeczach jestem wyćwiczony i nasyconym być, i łaknąć, i obfitować, i niedostatek cierpieć;
[Specifically], I know how [to be content when] I do not have what I need, and I know how [to be content when] I have plenty. I have learned how [to be content] in any and every [situation] [DOU]. [Specifically], I have learned how [to be content when] I have enough to eat, and I have learned how [to be content when] I do not have enough to eat. I have learned how [to be content when] I have plenty [DOU] [of what I need], and I have learned [how to be content when] I lack [things].
13 Wszystko mogę w Chrystusie, który mię posila.
I am able (to cope with/to handle) every situation because [Christ] gives me the strength to do that.
14 Wszakże dobrzeście uczynili, żeście społecznie dogodzili uciskowi mojemu.
Nevertheless, you did very well by [helping me] (OR, [giving me money]) [EUP] while I have been suffering hardship.
15 A wiecie i wy Filipensowie, iż na początku Ewangielii, gdym wyszedł z Macedonii, żaden mi zbór nie udzielił na rachunek dawania i brania, tylko wy sami;
[My friends there at Philippi], you yourselves know that when I first [proclaimed] the message about Christ [to you], and then left there to go to Macedonia [province], you were the only group of believers [LIT] who [sent me] gifts [EUP] in order that I might [proclaim that message] to others just like I did for you.
16 Ponieważ i do Tesaloniki raz i drugi, czego potrzeba było, posłaliście mi,
Even [when I was] in Thessalonica [city], you sent [money] [EUP] to me two different times [IDM] in order to [supply] what I needed.
17 Nie przeto, żebym datku szukał; ale szukam pożytku, który by obfitował na rachunku waszym.
I say this, not because I desire that you give me money now. Instead, I desire that [God] will abundantly bless [MET] you as a result of [your helping me].
18 Gdyżem odebrał wszystko i mam dostatek, pełenem, wziąwszy od Epafrodyta, co posłano od was, wonność dobrego zapachu, ofiarę przyjemną i Bogu się podobającą.
But I have received a very generous [gift] [EUP] [from you], and [as a result], I have plenty. I have an abundant supply [of what I need because] I have received from Epaphroditus the money [EUP] that you [sent to me]. God considers that your gift is very acceptable, and he is very pleased with it. [Your gift is like] a nice-smelling sacrifice [MET].
19 A Bóg mój napełni wszelką potrzebę waszę według bogactwa swego, chwalebnie, w Chrystusie Jezusie.
[Moreover], God, [whom] I [serve], has an unlimited supply [of everything that we(inc) need]. And as a result, because of your relationship with Christ Jesus, he will completely supply everything that you need.
20 A Bogu i Ojcu naszemu niech będzie chwała na wieki wieków. Amen. (aiōn )
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn )
21 Pozdrówcie wszystkich świętych w Chrystusie Jezusie. Pozdrawiają was bracia, którzy są ze mną.
Greet [for me/us(exc)] all of God’s people [there, that is, all those who have a relationship with] Christ Jesus. The fellow believers who [serve God together] with me here send their greetings to you (OR, say they are thinking fondly of you).
22 Pozdrawiają was wszyscy święci; ale osobliwie, którzy są z cesarskiego domu.
All of God’s people [here] send their greetings to you. Especially the [fellow believers who work] in the palace of the emperor send their greetings to you.
23 Łaska Pana naszego Jezusa Chrystusa niech będzie z wami wszystkimi. Amen.
My desire is [that our] Lord Jesus Christ [will continue to] act kindly toward you all [SYN].
