Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not tiresome, but for you it is safe.
Chamamanizo, mizwale musangalale mwa Simwine. Kwangu ime kumiñolela zintu ziswana kaku ni kazikatazi. Izi zintu muzi mibike mubuiketo.
2 Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.
Mulisileleze kubambwa. muliseleleze kuba vereki ba fosahele. mulisileleze kubanokola zilama zavukwame.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;
Kakuli. njeswe tunokola zilama zavukwame. Imi njeswe tulumbeka kaluhuho lwe Reeza. Imi njeswe tuhinda bwi kumuso mwa Keresite Jesu, hape tusena isepo mwinyama.
4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:
Niha kuba bulyo, Ime nimwine nivena isepo mwinyama. Haiva umwii uzeza kuva nisepo ye nyama, ni nivavi ni zingi.
5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;
Imi niba kosolwa inyama yabu kwame ninina mazuba akwana iyaza niyotatwe, nibantu bamwa Isilaele, ba mushobo wa Benjamine, Muheveru wa Maheveru; kuya chekute lya mulawo, ni Mufarisi.
6 concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
Nivena ichiseho yaku nyandisa ikereke. Kaku kuteka kuluka kwa mulao, kana nivena mulandu.
7 However, I consider those things that were gain to me as a loss for Christ.
Kono zinibali kuhupula kuti bufumu kwangu, niva ziboni kuti kusinyehelwa chebaka lya Jesu.
8 Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ
Chabuniti, hanu nibala zintu zose kusinyehelwa ibaka ylakupanga sinte kamano akwiziba zintu ka Keresite Jesu Simwine wangu. Kakwe nibalitobohi zintu zose Imi nizilola sina ikwe ilikuti niwane Keresite
9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith,
imi niwanike kwakwe. Kanina kuluka kwangu kuzwa mumulao. Kono nina kuluka kwe tumelo izwakwa Keresite, kakuli kuluka kuzwa kwe Reeza kulizingite he tumelo.
10 that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,
Cwale hanu nisaka kumwiziba ninguzu zaku buswa kwakwe ni chizwale cha masukuluka. Cwale hanu nisaka kuchichululwa kuva yoswana naye kuzwila mwifu lyakwe,
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
ilikuti name nikabe nikwiziba kwaku buka kubafu.
12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
Kahena initi kuti chini batambwile izi zintu, imi kakutalusi kuti chinakwanisa. Kono nitundamene kuti nika wonde china habusu bwangu ka Keresite Jesu.
13 Brothers, I do not regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do: forgetting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before,
Mizwale, kani hupuli kuti ime nimwine chini bachikwati. Konokwina choke chitu: ni zibala china kumasule imi nihwelela zina habusu.
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Nitilila heena chifunda nika wine mupuzo wakusupwa kuwolokete kwe Reeza mwa Keresite Jesu.
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.
Tubonse tulukite, tuhupule mweyi izila. Haiba uzeza ka kuchichina nizimwi zintu, Ireeza naye mwabonise zintu halukanda kwako.
16 Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let’s walk by the same rule. Let’s be of the same mind.
Niha kubabulyo, chose chintu chovasiki hachili, mukwatilile kuchili.
17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
Mulikanyise ime, mizwale. Hafuhi mulolelele kwabo bayenda chaku likanyisa miyendelo imwina nayo.
18 For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, as the enemies of the cross of Christ,
Bangi bayenda— kuamana nabo banibali kumi wambilanga, hanu nimi wambila kazi sonzi — siina zila zachi fapano cha Keresite.
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
Ma maninizo insi nyehelo. Kakuli bazimu babo nji mabumu abo, hape mungatuko wabo nji maswabi abo. Linu bahupula zintu zekanda.
20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
Kono munzi wentu tota wina kwiwulu, kuzwa uko naswe nitulindile muhazi, Iye Simwne Jesu Keresite.
21 who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.
Mwa kachiche mivili yetu ibola nikubika mivili yetu kuba sina muvili wakwe ubelenga, kupangwe kenguzu zamata akwe kubikila zintu zonse mwikonde lyakwe.
