¹Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

¹Sura toi ngkai aku' Paulus pai' Timotius, batua Kristus Yesus, kipakatu tilou hi koi' ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa' -kai hi rala Kristus Yesus to hi ngata Filipi, duu' -na hi pangkeni-ni pai' tauna to mpokamu pobago Pue' hi laintongo' -ni.

²Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

²Wori' tabe: mekakae-kai hi Alata'ala Tuama-ta pai' hi Pue' Yesus Kristus bona nagane' -koi ngkai kabula rala-na pai' nawai' -koi kalompea' tuwu'.

³I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

³Butu ngkani-na kukiwoi-koi ompi', ku'uli' oa' tarima kasi hi Pue' -ku, Pue' Alata'ala.

⁴Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

⁴Pai' butu ngkani posampaya-ku, goe' oa' nono-ku mposampayai-koi omea.

⁵For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

⁵Ku'uli' tarima kasi hi Pue' Alata'ala, apa' ngkai lomo' -na duu' tempo toi-e nitulungi ncuu-a hi rala bago-ku mpopalele Kareba Lompe'.

⁶Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

⁶Alata'ala moto-mi to mobago hi rala nono-ni mpobago bago to lompe', pai' kuparasaya pobago to natepu'u-mi tetu napokaliliu duu' -na hudu hi eo karata-na nculii' Kristus Yesus.

⁷Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

⁷Toto-na lia-a mpoinono-koi omea hewa toe-e ompi', apa' kupoka'ahi' -koi, apa' hampobagoa-ku omea-koi hi rala pobago to nawai' -ka Alata'ala toi. Nitulungi ncuu-a, lompe' bula-ku rala tarungku' toi-e, lompe' nto'u-ku mpo'uli' noa' -ku pai' mpakanoto kamakono-na Kareba Lompe'.

⁸For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

⁸Alata'ala mposabii' kamakono-na lolita-ku tohe'i. Lentora mpu'u-a ngkalentorai-koi omea, pai' kalentora-ku toi, hewa ahi' -na Kristus Yesus moto.

⁹And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

⁹Jadi', toi-mi pomperapia' -ku hi Alata'ala, bona ahi' -ni katedoo-donihia karoho-na, pai' tedonihii wo'o kamonoto nono-ni pai' pe'inca-ni mpo'inca napa to natao nibabehi.

¹⁰That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.

¹⁰Ane hewa toe-mokoi ompi', ni'inca mpu'u-mi mpelihi napa to meliu kalompe' -na. Mosampaya-a bona moroli' katuwu' -ni hante uma ria kasalaia' -na hi eo karata-na nculii' Kristus.

¹¹Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

¹¹Mosampaya-a bona monoa' oa' po'ingku-ni sabana pobago Yesus Kristus hi rala tuwu' -ni, alaa-na wori' tauna mpo'une' pai' mpomobohe Alata'ala.

¹²But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

¹²Jadi', bona ni'inca ompi', nau' ratarungku' -a tohe'i-e, goe' moto-a, apa' ngkai karatarungku' -ku toi, kawoo-woria' lau-mi tauna to mpo'epe Kareba Lompe'.

¹³So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

¹³Tantara to mpodoo tomi magau' pai' hawe'ea tauna hi rehe'i mpo'inca karatarungku' -ku toi apa' batua Kristus-a.

¹⁴And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

¹⁴Wae wo'o, wori' -mi ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta to hi rehe'i terohoi pepangala' -ra, apa' rahilo napa to jadi' hi aku' bula-ku ratarungku', alaa-na uma-rapa me'eka', kabii-biaa' lau-ramo mpopalele Lolita Alata'ala.

¹⁵Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

¹⁵Ria wo'o-ra hantongo' to ngkeni Kareba Kristus apa' mohingi' -ra pai' doko' mpo'ewa-a. Aga ria moto wo'o-ra hantongo' to mpokeni Kareba Kristus hante karoli' nono-ra.

¹⁶The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

¹⁶Hira' mpopalele Kareba Kristus apa' nakeni ahi' -ra, apa' ra'inca ka'aku' -na to na'ongko' Alata'ala jadi' suro-na to mpakanoto Kareba Lompe' hi hawe'ea tauna.

¹⁷But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

¹⁷Tapi' tauna to mohingi' toera we'i, mpopalele Kareba Kristus hante patuju to dada'a, apa' doko' mpomobohe hanga' -ra moto-wadi. Ra'uli' -ranale, babehia-ra toe mpodonihii kasusaa' -ku hi rala tarungku'.

¹⁸What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

¹⁸Aga nau' wae, uma kutapari. Apa' nau' ba beiwa, lompe' hante patuju to sala' ba hante patuju to makono, Kareba Kristus bate rapalele! Toe-mi to mpakagoe' nono-kue. Pai' bate goe' oa' -a,

¹⁹For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

¹⁹apa' nau' ba napa mpai' to jadi' hi aku', ku'inca hante posampaya-ni ompi', pai' hante petulungi Inoha' Tomoroli' to ngkai Yesus Kristus, bate mporata-a mpai' to lompe'.

²⁰According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

²⁰Konoa-ku pai' to kusarumaka lia, bona neo' -a mporata ea' hi pobago-ku toi. Kusarumaka bate bia' ncuu-a mpo'uli' posabi' -ku-- peliu-liu-nami tempo toi-e-- bona ba tuwu' ba mate-a, hanga' Kristus rapomobohe hi rala woto-ku.

²¹For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

²¹Apa' ane aku' tuwu', Kristus-mile to tuwu' hi rala tuwu' -kue. Pai' nau' ba mate-a, kurasi' lia.

²²But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

²²Aga ane tuwu' -a-pada hi dunia' toi, ma'ala-a-pidi mpokamu bago to mokalaua. Jadi', uma ku'incai to'uma-i to kupelihi.

²³For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

²³To ronyala toe mpomediii' nono-ku. Doko' lia-a mpalahii dunia' toi pai' hilou tida dohe Kristus, apa' toe to meliu kalompe' -na.

²⁴Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

²⁴Aga ane tuwu' -a-pada hi dunia' toi, bohe-pi kalaua-na hi koi' ompi', apa' niparaluu-a-pidi.

²⁵And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

²⁵Toe monoto lia hi rala nono-ku. Toe pai' ku'uli', bate tuwu' -a-pada mpai', pai' kupoka'ala-pidi tilou mpencuai' -koi, mpotulungi-koi bona tampai karoho pepangala' -ni hi Pue' Yesus pai' tampai kagoe' -ni mepangala' hi Hi'a.

²⁶That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

²⁶Jadi', ane ria-apa mpai' nculii' dohe-ni pai' nihilo-ama, karoo-rohoa-mi nono-ni mpo'une' Kristus Yesus.

²⁷Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

²⁷Jadi', nau' ba napa to jadi' hi aku', po'ingku-ni kana to masipato' hi tauna to mpotuku' Kareba Lompe' Kristus. Ba kupohirua' -pidi-kokoi mpai' ompi' ba uma-pi, kusarumaka ku'epe moto mpai' kareba to mpo'uli' katida pokore-ni, hanono pai' hintuwu' -koi mobago bona wori' tauna mepangala' hi Kareba Lompe'.

²⁸And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

²⁸Nau' ba napa-napa to jadi', neo' mpu'u-koi me'eka' hi tauna to mpo'ewa-koi. Apa' toe mpakanoto kanahuku' -ra mpai' Alata'ala, pai' koi' ompi' tebahaka ngkai huku', apa' Alata'ala mpobahaka-koi ngkai huku' jeko' -ni.

²⁹For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

²⁹Neo' -koi me'eka', apa' Alata'ala mpelihi-koi uma muntu' mepangala' hi Kristus, tapi' napelihi wo'o-koi bona mporata kaparia bona hanga' Kristus rapomobohe.

³⁰Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

³⁰Jadi' hewa toe lau, mporata kaparia mpu'u-mokoi, hibalia hante kaparia to kurata aku' toi-e, lompe' kaparia to nihilo moto-mi bula-ku ria-pidi dohe-ni wengi, lompe' kaparia to kurata hi rehe'i-e, hewa to ni'epe moto-mi.
