¹Kui nüüd on mingisugune julgustus Kristuses, kui mingisugune armastuse lohutus, kui mingisugune Vaimu osadus, kui mingisugune südamlikkus ja kaastunne,

¹If then [there be] any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any bowels and compassions,

²siis tehke mu rõõm täielikuks sellega, et te mõtlete ühtmoodi, et teil on sama armastus, et olete üksmeelsed ja ühtviisi mõtlejad

²fulfil my joy, that ye may think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking one thing;

³ega tee midagi kiusu ega auahnuse pärast, vaid peate alandlikkuses üksteist ülemaks kui iseennast,

³[let] nothing [be] in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the other as more excellent than themselves;

⁴nii et ükski ei pea silmas mitte ainult oma, vaid ka teiste kasu.

⁴regarding not each his own [qualities], but each those of others also.

⁵Mõtelge iseenestes sedasama, mida Kristuses Jeesuses:

⁵For let this mind be in you which [was] also in Christ Jesus;

⁶kes, olles Jumala kuju, ei arvanud osaks olla Jumalaga võrdne,

⁶who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God;

⁷vaid loobus iseenese olust, võttes orja kuju, saades inimese sarnaseks; ja ta leiti välimuselt inimesena.

⁷but emptied himself, taking a bondman's form, taking his place in [the] likeness of men;

⁸Ta alandas iseennast, saades kuulekaks surmani, pealegi ristisurmani.

⁸and having been found in figure as a man, humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and [that the] death of [the] cross.

⁹Seepärast on Jumal tõstnud ta kõrgemaks kõrgest ja annetanud talle selle nime, mis on üle iga nime,

⁹Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and granted him a name, that which is above every name,

¹⁰et Jeesuse nimes nõtkuks iga põlv nii taevas kui maa peal kui maa all,

¹⁰that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly and earthly and infernal [beings],

¹¹ja et iga keel tunnistaks: Jeesus Kristus on Issand - Jumala Isa kirkuseks.

¹¹and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord to God [the] Father's glory.

¹²Nõnda siis, mu armsad, otsekui te olete ikka olnud kuulekad, ärge olge seda ainult siis, kui ma olen kohal, vaid veel kindlamalt nüüd minu äraolekul; valmistage endile päästet kartuse ja värinaga!

¹²So that, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much rather in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,

¹³Sest Jumal on see, kes teis tegutseb, et te tahate ja toimite tema hea nõu kohaselt.

¹³for it is God who works in you both the willing and the working according to [his] good pleasure.

¹⁴Tehke kõik nurisemata ja vaidlemata,

¹⁴Do all things without murmurings and reasonings,

¹⁵et te oleksite laitmatud ja puhtad, veatud Jumala lapsed keset põikpäist ja rikutud sugupõlve, kelle seas te paistate nagu tähed maailmas,

¹⁵that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation; among whom ye appear as lights in [the] world,

¹⁶pidades kinni elusõnast. Nii saan kiidelda Kristuse päeval, et ma ei ole tühja jooksnud ega tühja vaeva näinud.

¹⁶holding forth [the] word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ's day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain.

¹⁷Ja kuigi minu veri peaks joogiohvrina valatama teie usu ohvri ja teenistuse peale, ma rõõmustan ja olen rõõmus koos teie kõikidega.

¹⁷But if also I am poured out as a libation on the sacrifice and ministration of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice in common with you all.

¹⁸Niisamuti siis rõõmustage ka teie ja olge rõõmsad koos minuga!

¹⁸In like manner do *ye* also rejoice, and rejoice with me.

¹⁹Ent ma loodan Issandas Jeesuses peatselt saata teie juurde Timoteose, et ka minu meel läheks kergeks, kui ma saan teada, kuidas teie käsi käib.

¹⁹But I hope in [the] Lord Jesus to send Timotheus to you shortly, that *I* also may be refreshed, knowing how ye get on.

²⁰Mul ei ole kedagi teist niisama tublit, kes tõeliselt teie eest muretseks.

²⁰For I have no one like-minded who will care with genuine feeling how ye get on.

²¹Kõik taotlevad ju enda oma, mitte Kristuse Jeesuse oma.

²¹For all seek their own things, not the things of Jesus Christ.

²²Aga tema ustavust te teate, sest nagu laps oma isaga, nõnda on tema koos minuga teeninud evangeeliumi.

²²But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child a father, he has served with me in the work of the glad tidings.

²³Teda ma loodangi nüüd saata, otsekohe kui ma näen, kuidas mu asjad arenevad.

²³Him therefore I hope to send immediately, as soon as I shall see how it goes with me:

²⁴Ma olen aga veendunud Issandas, et ma ka ise tulen peatselt.

²⁴but I trust in [the] Lord that I myself also shall soon come;

²⁵Ma olen pidanud vajalikuks saata teie juurde vend Epafroditose, oma kaastöölise ja kaasvõitleja, teie saadiku ja minu vajaduste eest hoolitseja,

²⁵but I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need,

²⁶sest ta igatses teie järele ja muretses, sest te olite kuulnud ta haige olevat.

²⁶since he had a longing desire after you all, and was distressed because ye had heard that he was sick;

²⁷Ta ju oligi suremas haige, kuid Jumal halastas tema peale, aga mitte üksnes tema, vaid ka minu peale, et mulle ei tuleks kurbust kurbusele lisaks.

²⁷for he was also sick close to death, but God had mercy on him, and not indeed on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

²⁸Nüüd ma siis saadan tema seda rutemini, et teie teda nähes jälle saaksite rõõmsaks ja mul oleks kurbust vähem.

²⁸I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that seeing him ye might again rejoice, and that *I* might be the less sorrowful.

²⁹Võtke ta siis vastu Issandas kogu rõõmuga ja pidage lugu niisugustest meestest,

²⁹Receive him therefore in [the] Lord with all joy, and hold such in honour;

³⁰sest ta oli Kristuse töö pärast surmasuus ega hoolinud oma elust, et täita teie aset minu eest hoolitsemisel.

³⁰because for the sake of the work he drew near even to death, venturing his life that he might fill up what lacked in your ministration toward me.
