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,
Koa raha misy famporisihana ao amin’ i Kristy, raha misy fampiononana avy amin’ ny fitiavana, raha misy firaisana amin’ ny Fanahy, raha misy famindram-po sy fiantrana,
2 make my joy full by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
dia tanteraho ny fifaliako, mba hiraisanareo saina, miray fitiavana, miray fo, miray hevitra,
3 doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;
tsy manao na inona na inona amin’ ny fifampiandaniana, na mandrani-tena foana fa amin’ ny fanetren-tena dia aoka samy hanao ny namany ho mihoatra noho ny tenany.
4 each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
Aza samy mihevitra ny azy ihany, fa samy ny an’ ny namany koa.
5 Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,
Aoka ho ao aminareo izao saina izao, izay tao amin’ i Kristy Jesosy koa,
6 who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,
Izay, na dia nanana ny endrik’ Andriamanitra aza, dia tsy nataony ho zavatra hofikiriny mafy ny fitoviana amin’ Andriamanitra,
7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.
fa nofoanany ny tenany tamin’ ny nakany ny endriky ny mpanompo sy nahatongavany ho manam-pitoviana amin’ ny olona;
8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.
ary rehefa hita fa nanan-tarehy ho olona Izy, dia nanetry tena ka nanaiky hatramin’ ny fahafatesana, dia ilay fahafatesana tamin’ ny hazo fijaliana.
9 Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name,
Koa izany no nanandratan’ Andriamanitra Azy indrindra sy nanomezany Azy ny anarana izay ambony noho ny anarana rehetra,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,
mba ho amin’ ny anaran’ i Jesosy no handohalehan’ ny lohalika rehetra, na ny any an-danitra, na ny etỳ an-tany, na ny any ambanin’ ny tany,
11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
sy haneken’ ny lela rehetra fa Jesosy Kristy no Tompo ho voninahitr’ Andriamanitra Ray.
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.
Koa amin’ izany, ry malalako, tahaka ny nanekenareo mandrakariva, tsy fony teo aminareo ihany aho, fa ankehitriny dia bebe kokoa aza raha tsy eo aho, miasà amin’ ny tahotra ny ny hovitra hahatanteraka ny famonjena anareo.
13 For it is God who works in you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Fa Andriamanitra no miasa ao anatinareo na ny fikasana na ny fanaovana hahatanteraka ny sitrapony.
14 Do all things without complaining and arguing,
Ataovy ny zavatra rehetra amin’ ny tsi-fimonomononana sy ny tsi-fisalasalana,
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,
mba ho tsy manan-tsiny sady tsy misy fitaka ianareo, dia zanak’ Andriamanitra tsy manana adidy eo amin’ ny firenena meloka sy maditra, izay isehoanareo tahaka ny fanazavana eo amin’ izao tontolo izao,
16 holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ that I didn’t run in vain nor labor in vain.
mitana ny tenin’ ny fiainana, mba hisy ho reharehako amin’ ny andron’ i Kristy, ka tsy ho nihazakazaka foana aho na nisasatra foana.
17 Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.
Eny, na dia haidina ho fanatitra aidina eo amin’ ny fanatitra ny fisoronan’ ny finoanareo aza aho, dia faly ka miara-mifaly aminareo rehetra.
18 In the same way, you also should be glad and rejoice with me.
Ary aoka izany no hampifaly anareo koa, ary miaraha mifaly amiko.
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.
Nefa manantena ao amin’ i Jesosy Tompo aho fa haniraka an’ i Timoty faingana ho atỳ aminareo, mba hifaliako koa, rehefa fantatro ny toetrareo.
20 For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.
Fa tsy manana olona mitovy fanahy amiko aho na dia iray akory aza, izay hazoto hiahy anareo.
21 For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
Fa izy rehetra dia samy mitady ny azy avy, fa tsy ny an’ i Jesosy Kristy;
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.
izy kosa dia fantatrareo fa lehilahy voazaha toetra, fa efa niara-nanompo tamiko teo amin’ ny filazantsara, tahaka ny zanaka manompo ny rainy.
23 Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.
Ary izy no antenaiko hirahina faingana, rehefa hitako izay ho toetro.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.
Fa matoky ao amin’ ny Tompo aho fa ny tenako dia mbola ho avy faingana koa.
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,
Nefa nihevitra aho fa tokony hampandehaniko hankatỳ aminareo Epafrodito, rahalahiko sady mpiray asa amiko no miaramila namako ary irakareo sy mpanompo hanome izay nilaiko.
26 since he longed for you all, and was very troubled because you had heard that he was sick.
Fa manina anareo rehetra izy ka difotra alahelo, satria efa renareo fa narary izy.
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.
Eny, fa narary saiky maty tokoa izy; nefa Andriamanitra namindra fo taminy, ary tsy taminy ihany, fa tamiko koa, fandrao hanana alahelo mifanontona aho.
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.
Koa nazoto kokoa haniraka azy aho, mba hifalianareo, rehefa hitanareo indray izy, ary mba ho afaka alahelo kokoa aho.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such people in honor,
Koa raiso ao amin’ ny Tompo izy amin’ ny fifaliana indrindra, ary omeo voninahitra izay olona tahaka izany;
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.
fa saiky maty izy noho ny asan’ i Kristy sady nanao ny ainy tsy ho zavatra mba hanefa izay tsy vitanareo tamin’ ny fanompoana ahy.
