Philemon 1
1 Jisu Christtagi maramgidamak phadok oiriba Paul amadi eikhoigi ichil inao Timothy-na, eikhoigi achanba marup oiriba amasung eikhoiga thougal touminnariba philemon
To my beloved friend and coworker Philemon,
2 amadi nahakki yumda tinnaba singlupki mising amasung eikhoigi ichan Apphia aduga eikhoiga lanmi oiminnaba Archippus-ki maphamda:
to my sister Apphia, to my fellow soldier Archippus, and to the church which meets at Philemon’s house. From Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and brother Timothy.
3 Eikhoigi Ipa Ibungo Tengban Mapu amasung Mapu Ibungo Jisu Christtana nakhoida thoujal amadi ingthaba pibiba oirasanu.
Grace and peace be to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Nahakna Tengban Mapugi mi pumnamakpu nungsijaba amadi Mapu Ibungo Jisugi maphamda leijaba nahakki thajaba adugi wa adu eina tabada eigi haijaba khudingmakta nahakpu ningsingduna eigi Tengban Mapubu tattana thagatchei.
I am ever mentioning you in my prayers, and giving thanks to God,
because I am hearing of your love and of the faith which you hold, not only toward the Lord Jesus Christ, but toward all the saints.
6 Thajaba ama oina eikhoina nahakka tinnajaba asina Christta-ga loinajabana eikhoigi punsida phangba yaiphaba khudingmak adu henna ningthijana khangba adu pubiraknaba eina Tengban Mapugi maphamda haijei.
And I pray that your participation may become effectual, as you come to acknowledge every good thing which is in you to Christ.
7 Nahakki nungsibana eingonda yamna haraoba amadi yamna thougatpiba pubirak-i! Aduga Tengban Mapugi mi pumnamakki thamoida nahakna haraoba pubirakle.
For I have great joy and comfort in your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed.
8 Maram asina Christtada ichil inao ama oina eina thouna phana nangonda nahakna tougadaba adu tounanaba yathang pirambasu yabani,
And so, although I might be bold in Christ to dictate to you what is fitting,
9 adubu ahal oiraba aduga houjikna Christta Jisugidamak phadok amasu oiriba Paul eihakna nungsibagi maramna nangonda nonjabani.
yet for love’s sake, I rather beseech you, I, Paul, an old man, and now a prisoner for Christ Jesus!
10 Christtada ichanupa oiraba Onesimus-kidamak eina nangonda nolukna haijari: keisumsangda leina leina eihak mahakki thawaigi mapa oirakpani.
I beseech you for my son, Onesimus, whom I have begotten in these chains.
11 Matam amadadi mahak asi nangonda karisu kanadaba ama oirambani, adubu houjikti nahakkidamak amadi eigidamaksu kanaba oire.
Once you found him "unprofitable," but now he is "profitable" to you and to me.
12 Eigi thawaigumna khanjariba mahak asibu nangonda amuk halhankhibani.
I am sending him back to you, he himself, that is, my very heart!
13 Aphaba paogi maramgidamak eina phadok oiringei manung asida nahakki mahut sinduna eibu mateng pangbinaba mahakpu mapham asida eiga loinana thamba pambani.
I could wish to retain him at my side, so that he might minister to me in your stead, in my bonds for the gospel.
14 Adubu eina nahakki ayaba yaodana kari amata touba pamde, nahakki pangbiba adu tangaiphadana toubagum nattaduna, touningna touba adu eina pamjei.
But without your consent I was unwilling to do anything, so that your kindness to me might be of your own free will, and not of compulsion.
15 Matam khara mahak nangondagi khainaramba asi nahakna mahakpu matam pumbagi oina phangjaba yananaba oiramba yai. (aiōnios g166)
Perhaps for this reason you were separated from him for an hour, in order that you might have him back forever, (aiōnios g166)
16 Houjikti mahak a-reiba minaigumna nattaduna, madudagi yamna henba haibadi Christtada achanba ichil inao oire. Mahak asi eigidamak achanba ama oire adubu nahakkidamakti mioiba masel ama oina amadi Mapu Ibungogi maphamda ichil inao ama oina henna achanba ama oire!
no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a brother beloved; especially dear to me, but how much more to you, both as a man and a fellow Christian.
17 Maram aduna eibu nahakki napang ama oina singthabirabadi, eihak isamak lousinbagumna mahakpu lousinbiyu.
If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.
18 Mahakna nahakki maphamda lankhiba nattraga karigumba tonkhiba leirabadi eina singnanaba eigi ithakta thambiyu.
And if he has wronged you at all, or is owing you anything, charge that to me.
19 Masi Paul eihakna ikhutmakna ijabani: madu eina nangonda han-gani; adubu nahak nasamak eingonda laman oina tolli haibasi eina nangonda haidrabani.
I Paul am writing this in my own handwriting, "I will repay you." But I will not mention that you owe me, over and over, your very soul.
20 Maram aduna, ichil inao, Mapu Ibungogi maramgidamak chanbiba thabak asi eigidamak toubiyu; Christtada ichil inao ama oina eigi pukning nungaihanbiyu.
Come my brother, let me have joy in the Lord because of you! Refresh my heart in Christ!
21 Eina haiba nahakna in-gani haiba thajaduna nangonda chithi asi i-bani, eina haiba asidagi henna nahakna tougani haiba eina khang-i
Because I am thoroughly persuaded of your obedience, I have written you, knowing full well that you will do by me what I am asking.
22 Aduga amakhaksu haijari madudi nakhoigi haijabasing adugi paokhum phangduna eibu nakhoigi naphamda halhanbigani haibagi asa eingonda leibagi maramna eina thungnanaba ka ama thourang toubirammu.
Please also prepare for me a lodging, for I am hoping by your prayers to be restored to you again.
23 Epaphras, Christta Jisugi maramgidamak eiga phadok taminnariba mahakna nakhoibu khurumjabagi warol haijarakli.
Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greeting;
24 Aduga eiga thougal touminnariba Mark, Aristarchus, Demas amasung Luke-nasu nakhoibu khurumjabagi warol hajarakli.
so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 Mapu Ibungo Jisu Christtagi thoujal nakhoi pumnamakki maphamda leiba oirasanu.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
