1ܐܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܒܘܝܐܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܐܢ ܡܡܠܐ ܒܠܒܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܘܐܢ ܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܘܐܢ ܪܘܚܦܐ ܘܪܚܡܐ ܀
1If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,
2ܫܠܡܘ ܚܕܘܬܝ ܕܚܕ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܚܕ ܚܘܒܐ ܘܚܕܐ ܢܦܫ ܘܚܕܐ ܬܪܥܝܬܐ ܀
2make my joy full, by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
3ܘܡܕܡ ܒܚܪܝܢܐ ܐܘ ܒܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܤܪܝܩܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܥܒܕܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܒܡܟܝܟܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܠܚܒܪܗ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢܗ ܢܚܫܘܒ ܀
3doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;
4ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܕܢܦܫܗ ܢܐܨܦ ܐܠܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܐܦ ܕܚܒܪܗ ܀
4each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
5ܘܗܕܐ ܐܬܪܥܘ ܒܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܗܝ ܕܐܦ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀
5Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,
6ܗܘ ܕܟܕ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܚܛܘܦܝܐ ܚܫܒܗ ܗܕܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܦܚܡܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
6who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,
7ܐܠܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܤܪܩ ܘܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܥܒܕܐ ܢܤܒ ܘܗܘܐ ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܘܒܐܤܟܡܐ ܐܫܬܟܚ ܐܝܟ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܀
7but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.
8ܘܡܟܟ ܢܦܫܗ ܘܐܫܬܡܥ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܡܘܬܐ ܡܘܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܙܩܝܦܐ ܀
8And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross.
9ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܤܓܝ ܪܡܪܡܗ ܘܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܫܡܐ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܫܡܗܝܢ ܀
9Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name;
10ܕܒܫܡܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܟܠ ܒܪܘܟ ܬܟܘܦ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܒܐܪܥܐ ܘܕܠܬܚܬ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܀
10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,
11ܘܟܠ ܠܫܢ ܢܘܕܐ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܀
11and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12ܡܟܝܠ ܚܒܝܒܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܐܫܬܡܥܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܟܕ ܩܪܝܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܐܠܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܪܚܝܩ ܐܢܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܒܕܚܠܬܐ ܘܒܪܬܝܬܐ ܦܠܘܚܘ ܦܘܠܚܢܐ ܕܚܝܝܟܘܢ ܀
12So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܚܦܛ ܒܟܘܢ ܐܦ ܠܡܨܒܐ ܐܦ ܠܡܤܥܪ ܗܘ ܡܕܡ ܕܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
13For it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.
14ܟܠܡܕܡ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܪܛܢܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܦܘܠܓ ܀
14Do all things without murmurings and disputes,
15ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܬܡܝܡܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܡܘܡ ܐܝܟ ܒܢܝܐ ܕܟܝܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܡܪܝܢ ܒܕܪܐ ܥܤܩܐ ܘܡܥܩܡܐ ܘܐܬܚܙܘ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܢܗܝܪܐ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܀
15that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,
16ܕܐܝܬܝܟܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܒܕܘܟܬ ܚܝܐ ܠܫܘܒܗܪܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܒܝܘܡܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܩܐ ܪܗܛܬ ܘܠܐ ܤܪܝܩܐܝܬ ܥܡܠܬ ܀
16holding up the word of life; that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ, that I didn’t run in vain nor labor in vain.
17ܐܠܐ ܐܦܢ ܡܬܢܩܐ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܕܒܚܬܐ ܘܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܚܕܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܪܘܙ ܐܢܐ ܥܡ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܀
17Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.
18ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܕܘ ܘܪܘܙܘ ܥܡܝ ܀
18In the same way, you also rejoice, and rejoice with me.
19ܡܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܛܝܡܬܐܘܤ ܒܥܓܠ ܕܐܦ ܠܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܢܝܚܐ ܟܕ ܐܠܦ ܡܛܠܬܟܘܢ ܀
19But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.
20ܠܝܬ ܠܝ ܓܝܪ ܐܚܪܝܢ ܗܪܟܐ ܕܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܝ ܗܘ ܕܐܟܝܦܐܝܬ ܝܨܦ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܀
20For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.
21ܟܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܗܘ ܒܥܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀
21For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
22ܒܘܩܝܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܗܢܐ ܝܕܥܝܬܘܢ ܕܐܝܟ ܒܪܐ ܥܡ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܗܟܢܐ ܦܠܚ ܥܡܝ ܒܤܒܪܬܐ ܀
22But you know the proof of him, that, as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.
23ܠܗܢܐ ܡܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܒܥܓܠ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܡܐ ܕܠܘܬܝ ܀
23Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.
24ܘܬܟܝܠ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܡܪܝ ܕܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܒܥܓܠ ܐܬܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܀
24But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.
25ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܠܨܬܢܝ ܨܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܐܦܦܪܘܕܝܛܤ ܐܚܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܥܕܪܢܐ ܘܦܠܚܐ ܕܥܡܝ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܚܫܚܬܝ ܀
25But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need;
26ܡܛܠ ܕܤܘܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܠܟܠܟܘܢ ܘܡܥܩ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܕܥ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܕܐܬܟܪܗ ܀
26since he longed for you all, and was very troubled, because you had heard that he was sick.
27ܐܦ ܐܬܟܪܗ ܓܝܪ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܡܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܪܚܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܐܠܐ ܐܦ ܥܠܝ ܕܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܥܩܐ ܥܠ ܥܩܐ ܀
27For indeed he was sick, nearly to death, but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.
28ܚܦܝܛܐܝܬ ܗܟܝܠ ܫܕܪܬܗ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܟܕ ܬܚܙܘܢܝܗܝ ܬܘܒ ܬܚܕܘܢ ܘܠܝ ܩܠܝܠ ܢܗܘܐ ܢܦܐܫܐ ܀
28I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that, when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
29ܩܒܠܘܗܝ ܗܟܝܠ ܒܡܪܝܐ ܒܟܠ ܚܕܘܐ ܘܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܐܝܩܪܐ ܐܚܘܕܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܀
29Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honor,
30ܡܛܠ ܥܒܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܡܘܬܐ ܡܛܝ ܘܒܤܪ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܗ ܕܢܡܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܒܨܪܬܘܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܕܠܘܬܝ ܀
30because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.
