Philippians 2
1 If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,
Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na e nwere nkasiobi ọbụla dịrị anyị nʼihi njikọta e jikọtara anyị na Kraịst, ọ bụrụkwa na e nwere inyeaka ọbụla site nʼịhụnanya ya, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ dị nnwekọ ọbụla anyị na Mmụọ na-enwekọ, ọ bụrụ na unu nwere obi nro na ọmịiko,
2 make my joy full by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
meenụ ka ọṅụ m zuo oke, site nʼinwe nkwekọta nʼihe ọbụla, site nʼịhụrịta onwe unu nʼanya, sitekwa nʼinwekọ otu mmụọ, na otu uche.
3 doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;
Emela ihe ọbụla nʼihi naanị ọdịmma nke gị, maọbụ bie ndụ nʼụzọ ịdọtara onwe gị otuto efu. Kama bụrụ onye wedara onwe ya ala, onye na-ahụ ndị ọzọ dị ka ndị ka ya mma.
4 each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
Echela echiche banyere naanị ihe metụtara gị, kama, na-eleba anya nʼihe banyere ndị ọzọ.
5 Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,
Na mmekọrịta unu na ibe unu, nweenụ ụdị uche ahụ nke dị nʼime Jisọs Kraịst:
6 who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,
Onye ọ bụ ezie na o nwere ụdịdị Chineke site na mmalite ma ọ gụghị ụdịdị ya dị ka Chineke dị ka ihe ọ ga-ejidesi aka ike.
7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.
Kama, ọ gụrụ onwe ya dị ka ihe efu, site na ịnara ụdịdị nke onye bụ ohu, onye nke a mụrụ dị ka mmadụ.
8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.
Ebe ahụrụ ya ka ọ dịka mmadụ nʼoyiyi, o wedakwara onwe ya ala, site nʼirube isi ruo ọnwụ, bụ ọnwụ nke obe.
9 Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name,
Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka Chineke ji bulie ya elu nʼebe kachasị elu, nyekwa ya aha kachasị aha niile elu.
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,
Ka ọ ga-abụ mgbe ọbụla a kpọrọ aha Jisọs ka ikpere niile ọbụla gbuo nʼala, ihe niile dị nʼeluigwe, ndị niile bi nʼụwa, na ndị bi nʼokpuru ụwa.
11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Ka ire niile ọbụla kwupụta na Jisọs Kraịst bụ Onyenwe anyị, maka inye Chineke bụ Nna, otuto.
12 So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Ya mere, ezi ndị enyi m, dị ka unu na-erube isi mgbe niile, ọ bụghị naanị mgbe m nọ, ma karịsịa ugbu a m na-anọghị unu nso, gaanụ nʼihu ịrụpụta nzọpụta unu site nʼịtụ egwu na ịma jijiji.
13 For it is God who works in you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Nʼihi na ọ bụ Chineke nʼonwe ya na-arụ ọrụ nʼime unu, inyere unu aka ịchọ ime ihe ọ chọrọ ka unu mee, na inyere unu aka ime ihe ahụ ọ chọrọ.
14 Do all things without complaining and arguing,
Nʼihe ọbụla unu na-eme, wezuganụ ntamu na ịrụ ụka nʼetiti unu.
15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,
Bienụ ndụ unu dị ka ụmụ Chineke, ndị a na-apụghị ịta ụta, ndị dị ọcha na ndị a na-apụghị ibo ebubo nʼime ụwa ọjọọ a, nʼetiti ọgbọ gbagọrọ agbagọ, na nʼetiti ndị nwere obi nʼazụ. Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-enwupụta nʼetiti ha dị ka kpakpando nʼime ụwa!
16 holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ that I did not run in vain nor labor in vain.
Na-echekwanụ nʼihu ha okwu ahụ na-enye ndụ. Ka ọ bụrụ na mgbe Kraịst bịara ọzọ, aga m aṅụrị ọṅụ, nʼihi na ọrụ m rụrụ nʼetiti unu abụghị ihe efu.
17 Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.
Nʼezie, ọ bụrụ na-awụpụ m dị ka aja ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼelu aja nʼife ofufe nke sitere na Chineke nʼihi okwukwe unu. E, a si na e gbuo m nʼihi unu, aga m aṅụrị ọṅụ na-esorokwa unu niile nwe obi ụtọ
18 In the same way, you also should be glad and rejoice with me.
otu aka ahụ, unu onwe unu kwesiri inwe obi ụtọ ma sorokwa m ṅụrịa ọṅụ.
19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.
Enwere m olileanya nʼime Onyenwe anyị Jisọs na m ga-ezitere unu Timoti nʼoge na-adịghị anya site ugbu a, ka m site nʼozi ọ ga-anata banyere unu nwee obi ụtọ.
20 For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.
Enweghị m onye ọzọ dị ka ya, onye ga-eche ezi echiche maka ọdịmma unu.
21 For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
Nʼihi na ndị ọzọ na-echegbu onwe ha maka ọdịmma nke ha, ma ọ bụghị maka ọdịmma Jisọs Kraịst.
22 But you know that he has proved himself. As a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.
Ma unu niile maara otu Timoti si dị oke mkpa. Ọ dị nnọọ dị ka nwa m, site nʼinyeaka ọ na-enyere m nʼọrụ izisa oziọma.
23 Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.
Enwere m olileanya nʼezie izitere unu ya. M ga-emekwa nke a ma ọ bụrụ na m chọpụta ihe ọnọdụ m nʼebe a ga-abụ.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.
Nʼezie, enwere m olileanya na site nʼinyeaka Onyenwe anyị, mụ onwe m ga-abịakwutekwa unu na mgbe na-adịghị anya.
25 But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need,
Otu ọ dị, echere m na ọ dị mkpa ugbu a izighachiri unu Epafroditọs, nwanna m na onye mụ na ya na-arụkọ ọrụ, onye mụ na ya na-ebukọ agha, onyeozi nke unu zitere ka ọ bịa nyere m aka nʼọnọdụ mkpa m.
26 since he longed for you all, and was very troubled because you had heard that he was sick.
Ugbu a, ana m eziteghachiri unu ya, nʼihi na ọ na-agụsị ya agụụ ike ịhụ unu anya. O wutekwara ya nke ukwuu, na e mere ka unu mara na ọ dara ọrịa nʼoge gara aga.
27 For indeed he was sick nearly to death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.
Nʼezie, ọ fọdụrụ nnọọ ntakịrị ka o site nʼọrịa ahụ daa nʼụra ọnwụ. Ma Chineke meere ya ebere. Ọ bụghị naanị ya, kama o mekwaara m ebere, nʼihi na o kweghị ka a tụkwasịrị m ihe mwute nʼelu ihe mwute.
28 I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Nʼihi nke a, ọ na-anụ m ọkụ nʼobi izite ya nʼebe unu nọ. Nʼihi na amaara m na ọbịbịa ọ ga-abịakwute unu ga-eme ka unu ṅụrịa ọṅụ. Ọ ga-emekwa ka ọnọdụ nchegbu m dị mfe.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such people in honor,
Ya mere, arịọ m unu, werenụ ọṅụ nabata ya nke ọma nʼime Onyenwe anyị, na-asọpụkwaranụ ndị dị ka ya.
30 because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.
Nʼihi na ọ fọdụrụ nwantịị ka o nwụọ, nʼihi ọrụ nke Kraịst, tinye ndụ ya nʼihe egwu iji mezuo ọrụ unu nʼebe m nọ.
