Philippians 1

1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and servants:

Filipa yaaba. Mini Polo leni Timote, Jesu Kilisiti naacenba, n diani yipo li tili, yinba yaaba n tie bi nigagihanba Jesu Kilisiti nni ki ye Filipa dogu nni leni yi nitaanli yudanba leni yi todikaaba kuli.

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Ti Baa U Tienu leni ti diedo Jesu Kilisiti n pa yi li hanbili leni mi yanduanma.

3 I thank my God whenever I remember you,

N tuondi U Tienu min tiadi yipo ya yogunu kuli.

4 always in every request of mine on behalf of you all, making my requests with joy,

Min jaandi yikuli po ya yogunu kuli, n jaandi leni li pamanli.

5 for your partnership in furtherance of the Good News from the first day until now;

Kelima yin taa leni nni ki todi nni o laabaalihamo wangima po maama, ki cili yin den gbadi o ya daali ki pundi hali moala.

6 being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

N daani ki go bani cain ke yua n cili laa tuonhanli yi niinni baa tuuni li hali lin gbeni Jesu Kilisiti guacuama daali.

7 It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.

Li pundi min ya tiadi yikuli po kelima n kubi yikuli n pali nni. Min ye kadi nni leni min maadi ki ga o laabaaliham

8 For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.

o ki teni ke o se ki pa, yikuli taani leni nni ki baadi min baadi ya hanbili U Tienu kani. U Tienu tie npo seedi ke n bua yikuli leni Jesu Kilisiti ya buamoanma.

9 This I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment,

Min miadi U Tienu yipo yaala n jaandi nni tie ke yi buama n yaa yabidi ki pugidi leni mi bandima leni mi yafuomoanma,

10 so that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Christ,

ke yin bandi ki gagidi ki gandi yaala n hani ki cie. Lani n baa teni yin ya hani cain ki naa pia ban baa fidi ki tabi yi leni yaala Kilisiti guacuama daali.

11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Yeni yi baa ya tuuni mi teginma tuona yaa ñni Jesu Kilisiti kani lan tua ti kpiagidi leni ti pagidi U Tinu po.

12 Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News,

N kpiiba, n bua yin bandi line, yaala n den cua npo teni ke o laabaalihamo wangima suagi liiga.

13 so that it became evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Christ,

Moamoani li doagidi yaa minteela n gu o bado diegu kuli leni nitoaba kuli po ke n lo li kadidieli nni kelima Kilisiti yaapo.

14 and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.

N kado teni ke ti kpiiba boacianla dugi o Diedo po ki cie, ki go paagi bi pala ki wangi U Tienu maama kaa go jie.

15 Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.

Li tie moamoani ke bi siiga tianba wangi Kilisiti laabaalihamo kelima bi pia n po li nunponli ki bua ki cie nni. Ama bi tianba mo li wangi o leni li yantiahanle.

16 The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;

Bine wangi o laabaalihamo kelima bi bua nni ki bani ke n ye ne kelima U Tienu gandi nni ke min maadi ki ga o laabaalihamo ki doagidi ke o tie moamoani.

17 but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.

Bine mo wangi o ki bua ki cie nni, bi yatiana naa hani, bi tema ke bi ya tieni yeni li baa pugini n fala li kadidieli nni.

18 What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.

Likuli tie npo yenma. Baa lan tie maama kuli, bi ya wangi o leni mi tuonanma bi ban wangi o leni li yantiamoanli, bi wangi Kilisiti laabaalihamo. N mangi n pali lipo ki go baa mangidi li ki pugidi.

19 For I know that this will turn out to my salvation through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

Kelima n bani ke likuli baa juodi ki tua n tindima yaapo kelima yin jaandi ki miadi npo maama leni Jesu Kilisiti Fuoma todima yaapo.

20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

Nani min bua ki go sugini maama tie ke n kan la i fe liba kuli po. Ama nani lan den kpa tie maama, li go tie yene moala. N sugini ke Kilisiti baa ba ti kpiagidi n miali yema nni kuli, li ya tie ke n baa kpe leni n ya baa ye kuli.

21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Kelima mini yaapo Kilisiti tie n miali, mi kuuma mo tie npo ñuadi.

22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; yet I don’t know what I will choose.

Ama, li yaa tie ke li hani min tuuni ya tuonli yaapo ke min yaa ye n gbannandi nni mii bani min baa gandi yaala.

23 But I am hard pressed between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.

Laa bonliedila miabi nni. N bua ki gedi ki ban yaa ye leni Kilisiti, lani n cie npo hali boncianla.

24 Yet to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

Ama yi mo ya todima po, min ya ye ki fo cie.

25 Having this confidence, I know that I will remain, yes, and remain with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,

N daani ki go bani ke n baa fo ki ye leni yikuli, ke yin fidi ki ya suagi liiga ki go pia li pamanli li dandanli nni.

26 that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again.

Yeni, n guacuama yikani go baa teni yin baa yaa pamanli n yaba Jesu Kilisiti nni.

27 Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

Lanwani bonyenla tugi li yuli, lani n tie yi tagi n yaa da leni Kilisiti ya laabaalihamo. N ya fidi ki cua yikani ki laa yi, leni n yaa fidi ki cua, min ya gba ke yi se bonhanla ki pia yantiayenli, ki moa o laabaalihamo n cuani ya dandanli ya muali.

28 and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

Yin da cedi yi koaginkaaba n jieni yi baa waamu. Lani n tie bipo seedi ke bi baa bodi, ama li tie yinba yaapo seedi yi tindima yaapo. Laa bonla ñani U Tienu ya kani.

29 Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,

Kelima U Tienu n tieni yipo yaa hanbili yeni, laa tie ke yi daani Kilisiti bebe ka, ama yin go ya laadi opo fala moko.

30 having the same conflict which you saw in me and now hear is in me.

Yi moko taa leni nni ki moa yin den laa ke n moa ya muali ki go gbadi moala ke n baa moa.
