< Filipai 4 >

1 Ko ia, ko hoku kāinga ʻofeina ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ko e fiefiaʻanga mo ʻeku teunga, ʻae ʻofeina lahi, ke mou tuʻumaʻu ʻi he ʻEiki.
So, then, my brethren, beloved and ardently desired, my joy and my crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my beloved.
2 ‌ʻOku ou kole kia ʻIuotia, pea u kole kia Siniteke, ke na loto taha pe ʻi he ʻEiki.
I beseech Euodia, and I beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.
3 Pea ʻoku ou kole atu kiate koe foki, ko [hoku ]hoa moʻoni, ke ke tokoniʻi ʻae kau fefine ko ia naʻe ngāue mo au ʻi he ongoongolelei, mo Kelemeni foki, pea mo hono toe ʻo ʻeku kaunga ngāue, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tohi ʻoe moʻui honau hingoa.
Now I beseech you also, true yoke-fellow, to assist those women who labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and my other fellow-laborers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Fiefia maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻEiki: ʻoku ou toe pehē, Fiefia.
Rejoice in the Lord always; and again I say, Rejoice.
5 Tuku ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē hoʻomou ʻulungāanga lelei. ʻOku ofi ʻae ʻEiki.
Let your gentleness be known to all men: the Lord is at hand.
6 ‌ʻOua naʻa tokanga mamahi ki ha meʻa ʻe taha; kae fakahā atu hoʻomou holi ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ki he ʻOtua, ʻi he lotu mo e lotu tāumaʻu mo e fakafetaʻi.
Be anxious about nothing, but in every thing, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God:
7 Pea ko e melino ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku lahi hake ʻaupito ʻi he faʻa ʻiloa, te ne maluʻi homou laumālie mo homou loto ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.
and the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 E kāinga, ko hono fakaʻosi [eni], ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku moʻoni, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku matamatalelei, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku totonu, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku māʻoniʻoni, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fakaʻofoʻofa, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ongoongolelei; kapau ʻoku ai ha lelei, pe ha meʻa ke fakamālōʻia, tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ko ia.
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue, or any praise, think of these things.
9 Ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia, naʻa mou akonekina ai, mo maʻu, mo ongoʻi, mo mamata ki ai, ʻiate au, fai ia: pea ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻOtua ʻoe melino.
Do those things which you have learned and received, and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
10 Ka naʻaku fiefia lahi ʻi he ʻEiki, koeʻuhi kuo toe ake ki mui ni hoʻomou tokanga kiate au; ʻaia naʻa mou tokanga ai foki, ka naʻa mou taʻehafaingamālie.
I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at length your care for me has revived again; in this, indeed, you had me in mind, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Ka ʻoku ʻikai te u lea koeʻuhi ko ha masiva: he kuo akonekina au, ke u fiemālie ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē teu ʻi ai.
I do not speak in respect to want: for I have learned, in whatever condition I am, to be content.
12 ‌ʻOku ou ʻilo ke fai ʻi he masiva, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo ke fai ʻi he maʻu ʻo lahi: kuo akonekina au ʻi he potu kotoa pē mo e meʻa kotoa pē ke mākona pe fiekaia, ke u maʻu ʻo lahi pea ke kātaki ʻae masiva.
I know what it is to be in want, and what it is to have abundance. Everywhere and in all things, I have been fully instructed in being full and in being hungry, in having abundance and in being in want.
13 ‌ʻOku ou faʻa fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi ʻoku ne fakamālohiʻi au.
I am able to do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
14 Ka neongo ia, kuo mou fai lelei ʻi hoʻomou kau ʻi heʻeku mamahi.
Yet you have done well in contributing to the relief of my affliction.
15 Pea ko eni, ʻae kau Filipai, ke mou ʻilo foki, ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe ongoongolelei, ʻi heʻeku ʻalu mei Masitōnia, naʻe ʻikai kau ha siasi ʻe taha kiate au ʻi he fefoakiʻaki, ka ko kimoutolu pe.
Now you Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church contributed to me so that I kept an account of giving and receiving, but you only.
16 Naʻa mo ʻeku ʻi Tesalonika naʻa mou tokoni ʻo liunga taha mo liunga ua ki heʻeku masiva.
For even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent once and again to aid me in my need.
17 Kae ʻikai ʻi heʻeku holi ki ha foaki: ka ʻoku ou holi ki ha fua ʻe ʻaonga kiate kimoutolu.
Not that I seek a gift; but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 Ka kuo ʻiate au kotoa pē, pea lahi ʻaupito: ʻoku ou mahu, he kuo u maʻu ia Epafalotaito ʻae ngaahi meʻa meiate kimoutolu, ko e ngangatu ʻoe meʻa namu kakala, ko e feilaulau ʻaonga, pea lelei ki he ʻOtua.
But I have all, and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus your gifts, a sweet odor, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God.
19 Ka ʻe taufetuku ʻe hoku ʻOtua ki hoʻomou masiva kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene koloa ʻi he nāunau ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.
But my God will supply all your need, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Pea ko eni, ke ʻi he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai ʻae nāunau ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni. (aiōn g165)
Now to God, even our Father, be glory from age to age. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 ‌ʻOfa atu ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi Sisu. Ko e kāinga ʻoku ʻiate au ʻoku ʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu.
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren that are with me salute you.
22 ‌ʻOku ʻofa atu ʻae kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu, kae lahi hake ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi he fale ʻo Sisa.
All the saints salute you, especially those who are of Caesar’s household.
23 Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. ʻEmeni.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
