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.
Pamonga na ago valongo vangu muhekelela mu kuwungana na Bambu. Nilonda lepi kuvayandikila gala genivayandikili. Ndava gakuvakitila ulonda musadika yinu.
2 Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.
Mujiyangalila na avo vevikita gahakau, genago mabwa, vandu vevijova kwa makala yiganikiwa kujidumula jandu, vevijova kusanguliwa yiganikiwa kudumula jandu.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;
Vandu vevadumwili jandu muuchakaka ndi tete, lepi vene, muni tete tikumgundamila Chapanga mukulongoswa na Mpungu Msopi, na kujimekela mukuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu. Tigahuvalila lepi mambu gegihengeka muhiga.
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:
Nene namwene nganihotwili kugahuvalila mambu gegihengeka muhiga. Ngati avi mundu mweihololela ihotola kugahuvalila mambu gegihengeka muhiga, ihotola lepi kunihotola nene,
5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;
Nadumwili jandu ligono la nane kuhuma kuvelekewa kwangu, nene namkolonjinji wa mulima wa Isilaeli likabila la Benjamini, kangi na mundu wa ku Ebulania wa chakaka. Ndava ya kulanda malagizu nene navi Mfalisayu,
6 concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
nakangamili neju kuvang'ahisa msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu. Kangi mukuhenga gegaganikiwi na Chapanga gegiletwa kwa kuyidakila malagizu nene navili lepi na mwana.
7 However, I consider those things that were gain to me as a loss for Christ.
Nambu ndava ya Kilisitu gala goha genagawene kadeni gabwina, hinu nikugawona gangali njombi.
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
Nambu, lepi genago gene, nambu niwona kila chindu chabwina lepi ndava ya lijambu labwina neju, la kummanya Kilisitu Yesu ndi Bambu wangu. Ndava yaki niyidakili kutagila kutali kila chindu, genago goha nigawene kuvya mahi muni nimpatayi Kilisitu,
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,
na kuwungana nayu hotohoto. Nene mbwitu kavili uganu kuhenga gegiganikiwa na Chapanga kwa kuyidakila malagizu. Hinu nihenga gala gegiyidakiliwa na Chapanga kwa kumsadika Kilisitu, kulolekana mbwina palongolo ya Chapanga mu njila ya sadika.
10 that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,
Chenigana ndi kummanya Kilisitu na kugawona makakala ga uyukisa waki, kuvya pamonga nayu mu mang'ahiso gaki na kufwa ndava yaki ngati cheafwili ndava yangu,
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
mukuhuvalila kuvya na nene mewa Chapanga yati akuniyukisa na kuvya muni.
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.
Nijova lepi nihikili amala nipungukiwi lepi chindu niyendelela kukangamala muni nihotola kupata njombi. Ndava yeniyi Kilisitu Yesu anipatili nivya waki.
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,
Chakaka, valongo vangu, nikangamala kuvya nipewili njombi, nambu lijambu limonga lenihenga, nikugakosiwa gala gegapitili na kukangamala kugakamula ga palongolo gala.
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Hinu nikangamala kuhamba kula kweniganikiwa kuhamba, muni nipewa njombi. Ndi magono goha gangali mwishu mkemelu mu njila ya Kilisitu Yesu.
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.
Tavoha tete vetikangili mukumsadika Yesu Kilisitu yikutigana tivya na maholo genago. Nambu ngati vangi viholalela chingi, hinu Chapanga yati akuvagubukulila lijambu lenilo.
16 Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let’s walk by the same rule. Let’s be of the same mind.
Nambu, tiyendelela kulongolo mu njila yiyoyo yetiyilandili mbaka hinu.
17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
Valongo vangu, muhenga ngati chenihenga nene. Tivalangisi kukita gegiganikiwa, na ndi muvayuwanila vala vevakutiyiga tete.
18 For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, as the enemies of the cross of Christ,
Nimali kuvajovela lijambu lenili pamahele, na hinu niwuyila kavili kwa maholi, vandu vamahele vitama ngati vamakoko va msalaba wa Kilisitu.
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
Ndi mwishu wavi kuyongomela, muni vigana kuyihekesa higa yavi vene ndi chimlungu wavi. Kavili vimekela ndava ya mambu gavi ga soni. Viholalela nga mambu ga pamulima.
20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
Nambu tete tavakolonjinji va kunani kwa Chapanga, na kuhuma kwenuko tilindila kwa mnogo Msangula witu abwela kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga, ndi Bambu Yesu Kilisitu.
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.
Mwene yati akuying'anamusa higa zitu zeziwola ziwanangana na higa yaki yevii yikulu neju, kwa makakala gala geihotola kuvika kila chindu muulongosi waki.
