Bafilipi 2
1 A go na le sengwe se se tshwanang jaaka Bakeresete ba itumelelana? A lo nthata thata go batla go nthusa? A go raya sengwe mo go lona gore re bakaulengwe mo Moreneng, re tlhakanetse mowa o le mongwe fela? A tota dipelo tsa lona di bonolo le bopelotlhomogi?
If there be therfore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of loue, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any compassion and mercie,
2 Jalo he, dirang gore ke nne le boitumelo jo bogolo ka go ratana le go dumalana ka dipelo tsotlhe, lo dira mmogo ka pelo e le nngwe fela le mogopolo o le mongwe fela le ka maikaelelo a le mangwe fela.
Fulfill my ioye, that ye be like minded, hauing the same loue, being of one accorde, and of one iudgement,
3 Lo seka lwa nna pelotshetlha; lo seka lwa dira ditiro tse di molemo gore lo tlotlomadiwe. Ikokobetseng, lo tseye ba bangwe jaaka ekete ba botoka mo go lona.
That nothing be done through contention or vaine glory, but that in meekenesse of minde euery man esteeme other better then himselfe.
4 Se akanyeng fela kaga dilo tse e leng tsa lona mme nnang le kgatlhego le mo go ba bangwe, le mo go tse ba di dirang.
Looke not euery man on his owne things, but euery man also on the things of other men.
5 Maikutlo a lona a tshwanetse go nna a mofuta o re o supegeditsweng ke Jesu Keresete,
Let the same minde be in you that was euen in Christ Iesus,
6 yo o rileng le fa e ne e le Modimo, a se ka a batla ditshwanelo tsa gagwe jaaka Modimo.
Who being in ye forme of God, thought it no robberie to be equall with God:
7 Mme a baya fa thoko nonofo ya gagwe e kgolo le kgalalelo, a tsaya setshwano sa motlhanka mme a nna jaaka batho.
But he made himself of no reputation, and tooke on him ye forme of a seruant, and was made like vnto men, and was founde in shape as a man.
8 Mme o ne a ikokobetsa go feta foo, mo e leng gore o ne a bo a swa loso lo lo tshwanang le lwa senokwane mo mokgorong.
He humbled himselfe, and became obedient vnto the death, euen the death of the Crosse.
9 Le fa go ntse jalo e ne e le ka ntlha ya gone mo, mo Modimo o neng wa mo tsholeletsa kwa legodimong mme wa mo naya leina le le fetang maina otlhe,
Wherefore God hath also highly exalted him, and giuen him a Name aboue euery name,
10 gore ka leina la ga Jesu mangole otlhe a tlaa khubama mo legodimong le mo lefatshing le ka fa tlase ga lefatshe,
That at the Name of Iesus shoulde euery knee bowe, both of things in heauen, and things in earth, and things vnder the earth,
11 diteme tsotlhe di tlaa bolela fa Jesu Keresete e le Morena, go ya kgalalelong ya Modimo Rara.
And that euery tongue shoulde confesse that Iesus Christ is the Lord, vnto the glory of God the Father.
12 Ditsala tse di rategang, erile fa ke na le lona koo, le ne lo tlhokomela ka nako tsotlhe go latela ditaolo tsa me. Mme jaanong ka ke seyo lo tshwanetse go tlhokomela thata go dira dilo tse di siameng tse di felelelang mo polokong, lo ikobela Modimo ka tshisimogo e kgolo, lo ikgape mo go tsotlhe tse di ka tlhokang go o itumedisa.
Wherefore my beloued, as ye haue alwayes obeyed me, not as in my presence only, but now much more in mine absence, so make an end of your owne saluation with feare and trembling.
13 Gonne Modimo o a dira mo go lona, o lo thusa gore lo rate go o ikobela, ebile o lo thusa go dira se o se ratang.
For it is God which worketh in you, both the will and the deede, euen of his good pleasure.
14 Mo go sengwe le sengwe se lo se dirang, kgaoganang le go ngongorega le go ganetsanya,
Do all things without murmuring and reasonings,
15 gore ope a se ka a lo bona molato. Lo tshwanetse go tshela lo le phepa, matshelo a a phepa jaaka bana ba Modimo mo lefatshing le le lefifi le le tletseng batho ba ba kgopo le logwadi. Phatsimang mo go bone lo le masedi a lefatshe,
That ye may be blamelesse, and pure, and the sonnes of God without rebuke in the middes of a naughtie and crooked nation, among whom yee shine as lights in the world,
16 lo ba tsholetse Lefoko la Botshelo. Mme fa Keresete a boa, ke tlaa itumela jang gore tiro ya me mo go lona e ne e atlegile thata.
Holding forth the worde of life, that I may reioyce in the day of Christ, that I haue not runne in vaine, neither haue laboured in vaine.
17 Mme fa madi a me a botshelo, go bua jalo ke raya gore a tshwanetse go tshelwa mo tumelong ya lona e ke e neelang Modimo e le setlhabelo, mo go raya gore fa ke tshwanetse go swa ka ntlha ya lona, le gone ke tlaa nna ke itumela, mme ke tlaa tlhakanela boitumelo jwa me le mongwe le mongwe wa lona.
Yea, and though I bee offered vp vpon the sacrifice, and seruice of your faith, I am glad, and reioyce with you all.
18 Gonne lo tshwanetse go itumela le kaga se, mme lo ipeleng le nna ka ntlha ya go nna le tshwanelo ya go lo swela.
For the same cause also be ye glad, and reioyce with me.
19 Fa Modimo o rata, ke tlaa romela Timotheo go ya go lo bona ka bonako. Mme fa a bowa o ka intumedisa ka go mpolelela gotlhe kaga lona le gore lo dira jang;
And I trust in the Lord Iesus, to sende Timotheus shortly vnto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I knowe your state.
20 ga go ope yo o tshwanang le Timotheo yo o nang le kgatlhego e kgolo mo go lona;
For I haue no man like minded, who will faithfully care for your matters.
21 mongwe le mongwe o bonala a tshwenyega kaga dilo tse e leng tsa gagwe e seng tsa ga Jesu Keresete.
For all seeke their owne, and not that which is Iesus Christes.
22 Mme lo itse Timotheo. O ntse fela jaaka morwaake mo go nthuseng go rera Mafoko a a Molemo.
But yee knowe the proofe of him, that as a sonne with the father, hee hath serued with me in the Gospel.
23 Ke solofela gore ke tlaa mo romela kwa go lona ka bonako fa ke sena go bona gore ke tsile go diragalelwa ke eng kwano.
Him therefore I hope to send assoone as I knowe howe it will goe with me,
24 Ebile ke tshepa Morena gore ka bofefo nna ka sebele ke ka tla go lo bona.
And trust in the Lord, that I also my selfe shall come shortly.
25 Mme ka lobakanyana ka gopola gore ke tshwanetse go busetsa Epaforodito gape kwa go lona. Lo mo rometse go nthusa mo go tse ke di tlhokang; nna le ene re ntse re le bakaulengwe tota, re dira re bile re le batlhabani mmogo.
But I supposed it necessarie to sende my brother Epaphroditus vnto you, my companion in labour, and fellowe souldier, euen your messenger, and he that ministred vnto me such things as I wanted.
26 Jaanong ke mmusetsa gae gape, gonne o ntse a lo tlhwaafaletse lotlhe ebile a hutsahetse thata ka ntlha ya gore lo utlwile fa a lwala.
For he longed after all you, and was full of heauinesse, because yee had heard that hee had beene sicke.
27 Mme ka boammaaruri o ne a lwala; tota le gone o batlile go swa. Mme Modimo o ne wa mo tlhomogela pelo mmogo le nna, wa se ka wa letla gore ke nne le bohutsana jo, mo godimo ga dilo tsotlhe.
And no doubt he was sicke, very neere vnto death: but God had mercie on him, and not on him onely, but on me also, least I should haue sorowe vpon sorowe.
28 Jalo ke rata thata go mmusetsa gape kwa go lona, gonne ke itse ka fa lo tlaa itumelang ka gone go mmona, mme seo se tlaa intumedisa se bo se fokotsa mahutsana ame.
I sent him therefore the more diligently, that when yee shoulde see him againe, yee might reioyce, and I might be the lesse sorowfull.
29 Mo amogeleng mo Moreneng ka boitumelo jo bogolo, mme lo supe gore lo itumeletse go tla ga gagwe,
Receiue him therefore in the Lord with all gladnesse, and make much of such:
30 gonne o ne a tsenya botshelo jwa gagwe mo diphatseng ka ntlha ya tiro ya ga Keresete mme o batlile go swa fa a santse a leka go ntirela dilo tse lo sa kakeng lwa di dira ka go bo lo ne lo le kgakala le nna.
Because that for the woorke of Christ he was neere vnto death, and regarded not his life, to fulfill that seruice which was lacking on your part towarde me.
