Filphisiyuusa 1
1 Kiristtoos Yesuusara issifida gisho, Xoossabaa gidida, Filphisiyuusa kataman de7iya woosa keethaa cimatasinne daaqoneta ubbaas. Yesuus Kiristtoosa aylle gidida, Phawuloosappenne Ximotiyoosappe kiitettida kiitaa.
Paul and Timothy, slaves of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons:
2 Nu Aawa Xoossaafenne Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosappe aadho keehatethaynne sarotethay hinttew gido.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
3 Taani hinttena qoppiya wode ubban, ta Xoossaa galatays.
I thank my God every time I remember you;
4 Taani hintte ubbaas Xoossaa woossiya wode ufayssan woossays.
in all my prayers for all of you I always pray with joy,
5 Hintte koyro gallasappe ha77i gakkanaw, Wonggelaa markkatteyssan taara issife gididi, tana maaddida gisho, Xoossaa galatays.
because of your partnership in the Gospel from the first day until now,
6 Hintte giddon lo77o ooso doomida Xoossay, Kiristtoos Yesuusi simmiya gallasay gakkanaw, polanayssa erays.
being certain of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will complete it until the Day of Jesus Christ;
7 Hintte ubba wode ta wozanan de7eeta. Taani ubba wodekka hessada qoppanaw bessees. Ha77i taani qashon de7ashenne qashettanaappe sinthe Wonggelaa naagoninne Wonggelaa mintha eson Xoossay taw qaadida qaadaa hintteka taara shaakettideta.
just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the Gospel you all are partakers with me of the Grace.
8 Taani hinttena ubbaa Kiristtoos Yesuusa siiquwan ay mela laamotiyakko Xoossay taw markka.
God is my witness how I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.
9 Hintte siiqoy tuma eratetharanne akeekara issife gujji gujji diccana mela Xoossaa woossays.
This is what I pray: that your love may abound yet more and more in real knowledge and full discernment,
10 Hessan hintte lo77obaa shaakkidi, dooreyssata, Kiristtoosi simmiya gallasan geeshshatanne borettonnayssata gidana.
for you to identify the things that really matter; that you may be sincere and blameless until the Day of Christ,
11 Hintte de7oy Xoossaa bonchchuwasinne galatas Yesuus Kiristtoosa baggara benttiya xillotethaa ayfiyaan kumidi ayfana.
having been filled with the fruits of righteousness that are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
12 Ta ishato, tana gakkida ubbay Wonggelay dalggana mela tuma maaddidayssa hintte erana mela koyays.
Now I want you to know, brothers, that the events against me have actually turned out for the advancement of the Gospel:
13 Taani Kiristtoosa gisho qashettidayssa, kawo keethaa naageyssatinne hayssan de7iya harati ubbay eroosona.
as a result, it has become evident to the whole imperial guard, and to everyone else, that I am in chains for Christ;
14 Ta qashuwa gaason nu ishatappe daroti Godan keehi ammanettidosona. Hessa gisho, Xoossaa qaala yashshi baynna kaseyssafe aadhdhi minnidi odana mela minotethi demmidosona.
also, most of the brothers in Sovereign have been influenced by my chains to be much bolder, to speak the Word fearlessly.
15 Gidoshin, issoti issoti qanaateninne palaman Kiristtoosabaa odoosona, shin harati suure wozanappe odoosona.
To be sure, some are even preaching Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of good will;
16 Suure wozanappe odeyssati, Xoossay taw Wonggelaa naago ooso immidayssa eriya gisho, siiqon odoosona.
the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking to add to my affliction while in chains,
17 Shin tana qanaateyssati ta qashuwa bolla hara meto ehanabaa enttaw daanin banttana dosidi Kiristtoosabaa odoosonappe attin tuma wozanappe odokkona.
but the latter out of love, knowing that I am set here for the defense of the Gospel.
18 Hessi aykkoka metenna. Tuma ogen gidin woykko worddo ogen gidin he ubban Kiristtoosi sabbakettees. Tana hessi ufayssees. Qassi harabay tana ufayssiyabay,
No problem: in every way, be it in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in this I rejoice—yes, and will rejoice.
19 taani hintte woosaninne Yesuus Kiristtoosa Ayyaana maaduwan attanayssa eriya gisho tana ufayssees.
You see, I know that this will turn out for my deliverance (through your supplication and the support of the Spirit of Jesus Christ)
20 Ta gita amoynne ufayssan naagiya naagoy ta yeellatonna attanayssa. Shin ubba wode ootheyssada, ha77ika taani paxa de7in woykko hayqqin yayyonna ta kumetha asatethan Kiristtoosi bonchchettana gada minotethan odays.
according to my earnest expectation and hope that I will not be put to shame in anything but be truly bold, so that now as always Christ will be glorified in my person, whether by life or by death
21 Ta de7ikkoka Kiristtoosa xalaalas de7ays; qassi ta hayqqikokka taw aadhdhida wodhe.
—to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
22 Shin ta paxa de7ikko ayfey de7iya ooso oothana. Shin paxa de7eyssafenne hayqoppe awussa dooranekko taw erettenna.
Now if I am to live on in the flesh it will mean fruitful labor for me, so I do not know what to choose.
23 Taani ha nam77atappe awussa dooranekko un77ettas. Ha de7uwappe shaakettada Kiristtoosara issife daanaw amottays; Kiristtoosara issife de7eyssi ubbaafe aadhdhida lo77o.
I am torn between the two: I have the desire to depart and be with Christ (far better),
24 Shin taani hintte gisho paxa de7eyssi hinttew daro koshshiyabaa.
but to remain in the flesh is more necessary, because of you.
25 Hessa taani geeshshada erays; taani, hintte ammanon diccanaadanne ufayttanaada hinttera paxa daana.
So having been persuaded of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,
26 Hessa gisho, taani hintteko simmada yaa wode, Kiristtoos Yesuusara hintte de7iya de7uwan tanan de7iya ceeqetethay hinttew darana.
so that your rejoicing over me may be more abundant in Christ Jesus, through my coming to you again.
27 Ubbaafe aathidi, hintte Kiristtoosa Wonggelaas bonchcho ehiya de7o de7ite. Ta hinttena be7in woykko be7onna ixxin hintte issi qofan minnidi eqqidi, harati Wonggelaan ammana mela issi wozanan gididi issife baaxeteyssa si7ana.
Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the Gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you, or am absent, I may hear about you that you stand firm in one spirit, striving together for the faith of the Gospel with one soul,
28 Hintte morkketas yayyofite. Entti hinttera eqettiyaba gidikko hessi hinttew atotethaas, enttaw dhayos Xoossaafe gidida malla.
and not being intimidated in any way by your opponents: to them this is an indicator of ruin, but to you of deliverance, and that from God.
29 Kiristtoosas oothiya qaaday hinttew imettiday, hintte iya ammanana mela xalaala gidonnashin hintte iya gisho meto ekkana melassa.
For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe into Him, but also to suffer for His sake,
30 Hessa gisho, hintte ta waayiya kase be7ideta; ha77ika ta waayetteyssa si7eeta. Hintteka ta waayiya mela waayetteta.
having the same struggle that you saw in me and now hear to be in me.
