Filibiya 3
1 Umalzunu vat linuana, sun liburi libo nanyan Cikilari. Kitininghe nkurun yerten minu ile imone na imon nkonnu litiari ba. Ilenge imone ma ciu minu gegeme.
For the rest, my brethren—rejoice in the Lord. To be writing, the same things, unto you, to me, is not irksome, while, for you, is safe: —
2 Yenjen bara ninau. Yenjen anan katwa kananzanga. Yenjen anan molsu nanit.
Beware of the dogs, beware of mischievous workers, beware of the mutilation;
3 Bara arikari ukalzu nacuru mine. Arikere anan sujada nin Ruhu Kutelle. Arikere anan fo nigiri nin Yesu Kristi, alenge na idi nin nayi akone nin katwa kidowo.
For, we, are the circumcision, who in the Spirit of God, are doing divine service, and are boasting in Christ Jesus, and, not in flesh, having confidence, —
4 Nanya nane, meng wang wadi nin nayi akone nin katwa kidowo. Nwa dimun wang gbardang.
Although, indeed, I, might have confidence even in flesh. If any other thinketh to have confidence in flesh, I, more: —
5 Iwa kalai kucuru liri lin kutir. Iwa marui nanya kuwunun Israila, nanya likuran Bayamin, Kuyahudawa kidegen nanya na Yahudawa. Kusarin dortun duka, iwa marui ku Farisawa.
Circumcised, the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews, —regarding law, a Pharisee,
6 Meng wadin lanzun mang ntizu kilari Kutelle uniu kang. Bara katwa kacine nduka, na nwa dinin tanu ba.
Regarding zeal, persecuting the assembly, regarding the righteousness that is in law, having become blameless.
7 Ama vat nani inyaghari wadi ukpinu ninghe, nmini na yaun inin imon ihem vat bara Kristi.
But, whatever things, unto me, were gain, the same, have I accounted, for the Christ’s sake, loss;
8 Kidegene, nene ndin batuzu imone vat udiuwari bara katwa kacine in yirun Kristi Yesu Cikilari ninghe. Bara ame nna filing imon vat. Nna yiru inin vat katwa kanangzanghari bara nnan se Kristi ku,
Yea, doubtless! and I account all things to be, loss, because of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for the sake of whom, the loss, of all things, have I suffered, and do account them refuse, in order that, Christ, I may win,
9 inan seyi nanya me tutung. Na nna se katwa kacine litining bara udortu nduka ba. Nna nase katwa kacine kanga na na kadi nanyan yinnu sa uyenu nin Kristi, katwa kacine ka na kadi kiti Kutelle unuzun yinnu sa uyenu.
And be found in him—not having a righteousness of my own, that which is by law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is, of God, upon my faith, —
10 Nengene ndi nin su inyininghe nin likaran fitu me nanya kul a ligowe nanyan niu me. Ndi nin suu nse ukpiliu nanya lissosin ninghe bara ukul me.
To get to know him, and the power of his resurrection and fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death, —
11 nnani men ciro ufitu nnuzu na nan kul.
If by any means I may advance to the earlier resurrection, which is from among the dead:
12 Na kidegenere nna malu useru ilenge imone ba, sa meng mal se ukulu nimone ba. Ama ndin sho liti nnan kifo ileli imone na mma kifu kitin Kristi Yesu.
Not that I have, already, received, or have, already, reached perfection, but I am pressing on—if I may even lay hold of that for which I have also been laid hold of by Christ [Jesus]: —
13 Linuana, na ndin yenju nafo meng liti ninghe nmal kifu imon ba. Ama imon irum duku meng fillo imon ile na imal katu nmini ceo ayi nimon ile na idin bunnning nanya Kristi Yesu.
Brethren! I, as to myself, reckon that I have, not yet, laid hold; one thing, however, —the things behind, forgetting, and, unto the things before, eagerly reaching out,
14 Ndin sho liti udi duru kiti kanga na ndi ninsu nduru nnan se uduk in yicu Kutelle nanyan Kristi Yesu.
With the goal in view, I press on for the prize of the upward calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Vat bite na timal kunju, na ti kpiliza nani. Andi udin kpilizu ugan nbelen nimon imong, Kutelle wang ma dursu fi ining.
As many, therefore, as are full-grown, let, this, be our resolve; and, if, somewhat differently, ye are resolved, this, also, shall, God, unto you reveal.
16 Vat nani, vat nimon ile na timal duru ining, na timiin inin nin likara.
Nevertheless, whereunto we have advanced, in the same rank, stepping along.
17 Piziran iyita nafo meng, linuana, shonon iyizi iyenje gegeme alenge na idin cinju imusun cin ule na anung nase kiti bite.
Imitators together of me, become ye, brethren, and keep an eye on them who, thus, are walking, —even as ye have, us, for, an ensample.
18 Anit gbardng din cinu nanya nalenge na ndin bellu minu ubelen mine kokome kubi, nene tutung ndin belu minu nin mizin, among din cinu masin nafo idi nivira nin kucan kotunung Kristari.
For, many, are walking—of whom I have often been telling you, and, now, even weeping, am telling, —the enemies of the cross of the Christ;
19 Imalin mine ukulari. Bara Kutelle mine aburi minere, a tikunan nati mine di nanya ncing mine. Inung din kpilizu ubelen nimon nyii ari.
Whose, end, is destruction, whose, God, is the belly, and [whose], glory, is in their shame, who, upon the earthly things, are resolved.
20 Kipin bite di kitene kaneri, kiti kanga na tidin ca nnan tucu ku, Cikilari Yesu Kristi.
For, our citizenship, in the heavens, hath its rise; wherefore, a Saviour also, do we ardently await, —The Lord Jesus Christ, —
21 Ame ma kpiliu nidowo kutyen bite niso nidowo nanga na ana kye nafo kidowon gongong me, kanga na ina kye nin likara lidyya me anan wunno imon vat udak litime.
Who will transfigure our humbled body, into conformity with his glorified body, according to the energy wherewith he is able even to subdue, unto himself, all things.
