< Filemon 1 >

1 Siak ni Pablo, maysa a balud ni Cristo Jesus, ken ni kabsattayo a Timoteo ket agsursuratkami kenni Felimon, nga ay-ayatenmi a gayyem ken katrabahoan,
Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,
2 ken ni Apia a kabsatmi a babai, ken ni Arkipo a padami a soldado, ken ti iglesia nga aggimong iti balaymo:
to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:
3 Parabur kadakayo ken kapia manipud iti Dios nga Amatayo ken ni Apo Jesu-Cristo.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Kankanayon nga agyamanak iti Diosko. Dakdakamatenka kadagiti karkararagko,
I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
5 Nangngegko iti ayat ken ti pammati nga adda kenka kenni Apo Jesus ken para kadagiti amin a namati.
hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
6 Ikararagko a nabunga koma iti pannakiramanmo iti pammati a maipaay iti pannakaammo iti tunggal nasayaat a banag nga adda kadatayo kenni Cristo.
that the fellowship of your faith may become effective in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.
7 Gapu ta naaddaanak iti kasta unay a rag-o ken liwliwa gapu iti ayatmo, agsipud ta pinaragsakmo dagiti puso dagiti namati, kabsat.
For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
8 Ngarud, uray pay no adda kaniak amin a kinatured gapu kenni Cristo tapno bilinenka iti rumbeng nga aramidem,
Therefore though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
9 ngem gapu iti ayat, dawdawatek ketdi kenka—Siak, ni Pablo, maysa a nataengan a tao, ken balud ita gapu kenni Cristo Jesus.
yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10 Agdawdawatak kenka iti maipapan kenni Onesimo nga anakko, a nagbalinak a pannakaamana iti pannakabaludko.
I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,
11 Gapu ta awan idi iti serserbina kenka, ngem napategen isuna ita kadata.
who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.
12 Pagsubliek isuna kenka—nga isu ti ay-ayatek unay.
I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,
13 Tarigagayko a pagtalinaedek pay koma isuna kaniak, tapno makatulong kaniak bayat iti kinaawanmo, bayat ti pannakaibaludko gapu iti ebanghelio.
whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
14 Ngem saanko a kayat ti agaramid iti aniaman a banag nga awan pammalubosmo. Inaramidko daytoy tapno saan a maaramid ti animan a naimbag gapu ta pinilitka, ngem gapu ta kayatmo nga aramiden daytoy.
But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
15 Nalabit a ti rason a naisina isuna kenka iti apagbiit, ket tapno agsubli kenka iti agnanayon, (aiōnios g166)
For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever, (aiōnios g166)
16 Tapno saan laengen isuna a kas tagabu, ngem nangatngato pay ngem tagabu, kas maysa nga ay-ayaten a kabsat— nangnangruna kaniak, ken ad-adda pay koma kenka, iti lasag ken iti Apo.
no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
17 No ibilangnak ngarud a kas kadua, awatem isuna a kas ti panangawatmo koma kaniak.
If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
18 Ngem no nagbasol isuna kenka, wenno nakautang kenka iti aniaman a banag, siakon ti agbayad iti dayta.
But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.
19 Siak, ni Pablo, isuratko daytoy babaen iti bukodko nga ima: Bayadankanto. Saankon nga ipalagip kenka a bulodmo kaniak ti biagmo.
I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).
20 Wen, kabsat, ipalubosmo nga agragsakak iti Apo; pabaroem ti pusok kenni Cristo.
Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.
21 Adda talgedko maipanggep iti panagtulnogmo, agsuratak kenka, nga ammok nga ad-adu pay ti aramidemto ngem ti dawatek.
Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
22 Maysa pay, mangisaganaka ti siled ti sangaili para kaniak, ta namnamaek a babaen kadagiti karkararagyo ket mapasyarkayonto iti mabiit.
Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
23 Kablaawannaka Ni Epafras a padak a balud kenni Cristo Jesus,
Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
24 ken kablaawandakayo met da Marcos, Aristarco, Demas, Lucas, a katrabahoak.
as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 Sapay koma ta ti parabur ni Apotayo a Jesu-Cristo ti makikaadda iti espirituyo. Amen.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
