VaFiripi 4
1 Naizvozvo, hama dzangu vadikanwi vanoshuviwa, mufaro wangu nekorona, saizvozvo mirai nesimba muna Ishe, vadikanwi.
Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2 Ndinokumbirisa Yuodhia, uye ndinokumbirisa Sindike, kuti vave nemurangariro umwe muna Ishe.
I appeal to Euodia and I appeal to Syntyche to agree in the Lord.
3 Uye ndinonyengerera iwewo, umwe wangu wechokwadi pabasa, batsira vanhukadzi vaya, vakabatirana neni paevhangeri, pamwe naKiremendi, nevamwe vakabata neni, mazita avo ari mubhuku reupenyu.
Yes, I ask you also, true companion, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Farai muna Ishe nguva dzese; ndinotizve: Farai.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Unyoro hwenyu ngahuzikanwe kuvanhu vese. Ishe ari pedo.
Let your gentleness be evident to all people. The Lord is near.
6 Musafunganya pamusoro pechinhu, asi pazvinhu zvese, nemunyengetero nemukumbiro nekuvonga, zvichemo zvenyu ngazvizikanwe kuna Mwari,
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 zvino rugare rwaMwari rwunopfuura kunzwisisa kwese, rwuchachengeta moyo yenyu nemifungo yenyu muna Kristu Jesu.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Pakupedzisira, hama, chese chechokwadi, chese chinokudzwa, chese chakarurama, chese chakachena, chese chinodikanwa, chese chinorumbidzwa, kana kunaka kupi nekupi, uye kana chingarumbidzwa chipi nechipi, fungai zvinhu izvi;
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.
9 nezvamakadzidza nekugamuchira nekunzwa nekuona mandiri, itai izvozvo; naMwari werugare achava nemwi.
And the things you learned and received and heard and saw in me, do these things. And the God of peace will be with you.
10 Asi ndakafara zvikuru muna Ishe, kuti ikozvino makatomutsiridzazve kundirangarira; kwamaindirangarirawo nako, asi makashaiwa mukana.
Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly that at last you have revived your concern for me; in which you were indeed concerned, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Kwete kuti ndinotaura izvi nekuda kwekushaiwa, nokuti ini ndadzidza kugutsikana nezvinhu zvandiri.
I'm not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.
12 Ndinoziva zvese kuzvidzwa, uye ndinoziva kuva nezvakawandisa; papi nepapi nepazvinhu zvese ndakadzidziswa zvese kuguta nekunzwa nzara, zvese kuva nezvizhinjisa nekushaiwa.
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret, whether full or hungry, whether having a lot or being in need.
13 Ndinogona kuita zvinhu zvese kubudikidza naKristu anondisimbisa.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 Kunyange zvakadaro makaita zvakanaka zvamakabatana neni pakutambudzika kwangu.
Still, you have done well to share my hardship.
15 Zvino munozivawo imwi VaFiripi, kuti pakutanga kweevhangeri, pandakabva kuMakedhonia, hapana kereke yakadyidzana neni pashoko rekupa nekugamuchira, asi imwi mega;
And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 nokuti kunyange paTesaronika makatumira kamwe nekupamha pakushaiwa kwangu.
For even in Thessalonica you sent me aid twice.
17 Kwete kuti ndinotsvaka chipo, asi ndinotsvaka chibereko chinowedzera kuchikwama chenyu.
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your account.
18 Zvino ndagamuchira zvese uye ndawanzirwa; ndaguta, ndagamuchira kuna Epafrodito zvinhu zvinobva kwamuri, hwema hwezvinonhuhwira, chibairo chinogamuchirwa, chinofadza Mwari.
But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 Asi Mwari wangu achazadzisa kushaiwa kwenyu kwese zvichienderana nefuma yake mukubwinya, muna Kristu Jesu.
And my God will supply all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Kwazisai mutsvene umwe neumwe muna Kristu Jesu. Hama dzineni dzinokukwazisai.
Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 Vatsvene vese vanokukwazisai, zvikuruwo avo veimba yaKesari.
All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
23 Nyasha dzaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu ngadzive nemwi mese. Amen.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
