Filemon 1
1 Susura ia mia au, Paulus. Au nonoo ngga Timotius o haitua sodꞌa-moleꞌ boe. Sadꞌi aꞌa muhine, ara tao au sia bui rala ia, huu au dui-bꞌengga soꞌal Yesus Kristus neu atahori. Au suraꞌ susura ia fee neu nggo, Filemon, fo hai sueꞌ a, ma mana dadꞌi hai nonoo mana tao ues ma;
These things speak thou, and exhort, and inculcate, with all authority; and let no one despise thee.
2 fee aꞌa Apfia, fo hai tao e onaꞌ hai toronoom; fee Arkipus, mana ue-tao naꞌabꞌue no hai sia ue-tataos ia ra; boe ma fee jamaꞌat mana biasa hule-oꞌe raꞌabꞌue sia umem.
and to our beloved Apphia, and to Archippus a laborer with us, and to the church in thy house.
3 Au oꞌe Lamatualain no hita Lamatuan Yesus Kristus ratudꞌu Rala Malole nara neu nggi, fo ona bee na, misodꞌa no mole-dꞌame.
Grace be with you, and peace from God our father, and from our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
4 Filemon! Mete ma au hule-oꞌe fee nggo, au oꞌe makasi neu Lamatuaꞌ huu masodꞌam.
I thank my God always, and remember thee in my prayers,
5 Au rena naeꞌ, soꞌal nemeherem neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus, ma susuem neu atahori mamahereꞌ ra.
lo, from the time that I heard of thy faith, and of the love thou hast towards our Lord Jesus, and towards all the saints;
6 Huu nemeherem naa, ho bisa musodꞌa ralaꞌ esa mo atahori mamahereꞌ laen ra. Au hule-oꞌe fo mete ma hei mitudꞌu rala malole mara esa no esa, na, hei mihine lenaꞌ basa dꞌala maloleꞌ, fo hita bisa tao fee neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus.
that there may be a fellowship of thy faith, yielding fruits in works, and in the knowledge of all the good things ye possess in Jesus the Messiah.
7 Aꞌa! Huu susuem naa, ho tao rala ngga namahoꞌo ena, ma tao manggatee rala ngga. Ma susuem naa o, tao manggatee atahori mamahereꞌ hetar rala nara ena boe.
For we have great joy and consolation, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thy love.
8 Aꞌa ee! Au parlu taꞌo ia: au dadꞌi Kristus dedꞌenun. No taꞌo naa, au uꞌena hak fo parenda nggo tao dalaꞌ ia. Te au nda nau parenda-parendaꞌ sa, au ae oꞌe tulun ꞌa, onaꞌ atahori lasiꞌ ra roꞌe tulun. Au dadꞌi atahori bꞌui huu au tungga Yesus Kristus. Naa de au umburani oꞌe tulun nggo, huu uhine susuem neu atahori hetar.
Therefore I might have great freedom In the Messiah, to enjoin upon thee the things that are right.
But for love's sake, I earnestly beseech thee even I, Paul, who am aged, as thou knowest, and now also a prisoner for Jesus the Messiah.
10 Au oꞌe nggo mutudꞌu susuem neu ana ngga, Onesimus. Eni, onaꞌ ana bꞌonggi ngga, huu namahere Lamatuaꞌ Yesus mia ue-tatao ngga leleꞌ au mia bui ia rala.
I beseech thee for my son, whom I had begotten in my bonds for Onesimus;
11 Au bubꞌuluꞌ Onesimus naa, ho atem mana nela hela nggo. Au o bubꞌuluꞌ, feꞌesaꞌan ana nda ma ngguna saa fee nggo sa boe. Te aleꞌ ia, au umuhere ana naꞌena nggunaꞌ naen seli soaꞌ neu ruꞌa nggita.
from whom formerly thou hadst no profit, but now very profitable will he be both to thee and to me; and whom I have sent to thee.
12 Au sue ala e seli, te hela neu, au fee baliꞌ e nisiꞌ nggo.
And receive thou him, as one begotten by me.
13 Matetun, au ae hela e, fo nggati nggo, fo mete-seꞌu au sia ia. Huu au nda kaꞌe ala fo tao saa-saa sia ia sa boe. Au dadꞌi atahori bꞌui huu dui-bꞌengga Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Hara-lii Malolen neu atahori.
For I was desirous to retain him with me, that he might minister to me in thy stead, in these bonds for the gospel.
14 Akaꞌ au nda nau fo ho tungga-tunggaꞌ a sa, huu atahori akaꞌ raꞌasusuuꞌ nggo. Au hihii ngga na, ho tao maloleꞌ huu hihii-nanaum. Dadꞌi mete ma ho nda feꞌe nau sa, na au o nda nau tao saa-saa soꞌal Onesimus ia sa boe, huu naa ho hak ma.
But I would do nothing without consulting thee; lest thy benefit should be as if by compulsion, and not with thy pleasure.
15 Mbeima ho duꞌa taꞌo ia: Lamatuaꞌ hela Onesimus dinggoꞌ hela nggo nda dooꞌ sa, fo neti leo baliꞌ no nggo losa doon. (aiōnios g166)
And, perhaps, also, he therefore departed from thee for a season, that thou mightest retain him for ever; (aiōnios g166)
16 Leleꞌ ana nela, ana dadꞌiꞌ a ate ma. Te aleꞌ ia ana baliꞌ, ana dadꞌi odꞌi susuem ena. Au o sue ala e seli boe! Dadꞌi ia naa, nggunan bau namanae fee nggo. Huu ana nda dadꞌiꞌ a ate sa, te ana o dadꞌi odꞌim mana mimihere belaꞌ neu Kristus.
henceforth, not as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother dear to me, and much more to thee, both in the flesh and in our Lord?
17 Dadꞌi, taꞌo ia aꞌa. Mete ma ho mae au ia onaꞌ toronoo mana tao ues ma, na, au oꞌe fo ho simbo e onaꞌ ho simbo au boe.
If therefore thou art in fellowship with me, receive him as one of mine.
18 Te, itaꞌ mbeima hambu Onisimus tao nasalaꞌ nggo, do, feꞌe nahuta nggo, hela fo au tanggon ala.
And if he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee aught, place it to my account.
19 Meteꞌ a! susura hutaꞌ ia, au suraꞌ endiꞌ lima heheli ngga: Au, Paulus, dei fo au bꞌae ala Onisimus huta-bꞌukun mana sia Filemon. Dai ena, do? Ma au o nda parlu uꞌingga ho huta-bꞌukum naeꞌ lenaꞌ neu au sa. Naeni, ho dadꞌi muu Lamatuaꞌ atahorin, huu au.
I, Paul, have written it with my own hand, I will repay: not to say to thee, that to me thou owest thy ownself.
20 Tebꞌe, aꞌa! Hela neu fo aꞌa tulun au sia dalaꞌ ia, huu hita bobꞌonggiꞌ sia Lamatuaꞌ rala. Au tao rala ngga manggatee taꞌo naa, huu basa nggita dadꞌi Kristus enan ena.
Yes, my brother, let me be refreshed by thee in our Lord: refresh thou my bowels in the Messiah.
21 Aꞌa! Au suraꞌ susura ia fee nggo, huu au umuhere nggo nau rena malolole neu au. Au duꞌa ae, neꞌo tao mulenaꞌ saa fo au oꞌeꞌ a.
Being confident that thou wilt hearken to me, I have written to thee: and I know that thou wilt do more than I say.
22 Hambu dalaꞌ esa fai. Tulun sadꞌia fee au kama esa dei. Huu au umuhere Lamatuaꞌ rena hule-oꞌe mara, de dei fo Ana soi dalaꞌ fo au kalua mia bꞌui ia, fo baliꞌ eti ita nggi sia naa.
And herewith, prepare also a house for me to lodge in; for I hope that, by your prayers, I shall be given to you.
23 Eprafas sia ia. Ana o dadꞌi atahori bꞌui huu ana dui-bꞌengga soꞌal Yesus Kristus, onaꞌ au boe. Ana haitua hara sodꞌa-moleꞌ neu nggo boe
Epaphras, a fellow-captive with me in Jesus the Messiah, saluteth thee;
24 Markus, Aristarkus, Demas, no Lukas o sia ia boe. Ara tao ues raꞌabꞌue ro au boe. Ara o haitua hara sodꞌa-moleꞌ boe.
and Mark, and Aristarchus, and Demas, and Luke, my coadjutors.
25 Au oꞌe neu Hita Lamatuan Yesus Kristus fo natudꞌu rala malolen neu basa nggi. Baꞌuꞌ a naa ena! Sodꞌa-moleꞌ Paulus
The grace of our Lord Jesus the Messiah be with your spirit, my brethren. Amen.
