¹PAVLEC eta Timotheoc Iesus Christen cerbitzariéc Iesus Christ Iaunean Philippesen diraden saindu guciey Ipizpicuequin batean eta Diacrequin,

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

²Gratia dela çuequin eta baquea Iainco Aitaganic, eta Iesus Christ Iaunaganic.

³I thank my God whenever I remember you,

³Esquerrac emaiten drauzquiot neure Iaincoari çueçazco orhoitzapen handirequin,

⁴always in every request of mine on behalf of you all making my requests with joy,

⁴(Bethiere neure oratione gucietan çuen guciongatic bozcariorequin othoitze eguiten dudala)

⁵for your partnership The word translated “partnership” (koinonia) also means “fellowship” and “sharing.” in furtherance of the Good News from the first day until now;

⁵Ceren Euangelioren communionera ethorri içan çareten, lehen egunetic oraindrano:

⁶being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

⁶Huneçaz seguratzen naicela, ecen obra ona çuetan hassi vkan duenac acabaturen duela Iesus Christen egunerano:

⁷It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.

⁷Nola raçoina baita nic haur estima deçadan çueçaz gucioz, ceren bihotzean baitzadutzatet, eta ene estecaduretan, eta defensionean eta Euangelioaren confirmationean çuec gucioc enequin baitzarete participant ene gratian.

⁸For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.

⁸Ecen Iaincoa dut testimonio cein cinez desiratzen çaituztedan çuec gucioc Iesus Christen affectione cordialez:

⁹This I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment;

⁹Eta hunez othoiztez nago, çuen charitatea oraino guehiago eta guehiago abunda dadin eçagutzerequin eta iugemendu gucirequin:

¹⁰so that you may approve the things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Christ;

¹⁰Gauça contrarioac discerni ditzaçuençát: pur eta trebucu gabe çaretençát Iesus Christen egunerano:

¹¹being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

¹¹Iesus Christez Iaincoaren gloriatan eta laudoriotan diraden fructuz betheac çaretelaric.

¹²Now I desire to have you know, brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News;

¹²Eta nahi dut daquiçuen, anayeác, ecen niri heldu çaizquidan gauçác Euangelioaren auançamendutarago ethorri içan diradela:

¹³so that it became evident to the whole palace or, praetorian guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Christ;

¹³Hambat non ene estecadurác famatu içan baitirade Christ Iaunean Pretorio gucian eta berce leku gucietan:

¹⁴and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.

¹⁴Eta anayetaric anhitz gure Iaunean ene estecaduréz asseguraturic, ausartquiago hitzaz minçatzera hauçu baitirade.

¹⁵Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.

¹⁵Eta batzuc behinçát inuidiaz eta contentionez, eta bercéc vorondate onez-ere Christ predicatzen duté:

¹⁶The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;

¹⁶Batzuc, diot, contentionez Christ denuntiatzen duté ez purqui, ene estecadurác afflictionez emendatu vstez:

¹⁷but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.

¹⁷Baina bercéc charitatez, daquitelaric ecen Euangelioaren defensionetan eçarri içan naicela.

¹⁸What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.

¹⁸Cer bada? nola-ere baita, bada fictionez, bada eguiaz, Christ predicatzen da: eta hunetan alegueratzen naiz, eta alegueraturen-ere.

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

¹⁹Ceren baitaquit, ecen haur ethorriren çaitadala saluamendutara çuen orationéz, eta Iesus Cristen Spirituaren aiutáz,

²⁰according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.

²⁰Ene iguriquite fermuaren eta sperançaren araura, ecen deusetan eznaicela confus içanen, aitzitic libertate gucirequin bethiere beçala, orain-ere magnificaturen dela Christ ene gorputzean, vicitzez bada hiltzez bada.

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

²¹Ecen niri Christ irabaizte çait vicitzera eta hiltzera.

²²But if I live on in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; yet I don’t know what I will choose.

²²Ala haraguian vicitzera probetchu dudanez, eta cer hauta deçaquedan, eztaquit.

²³But I am in a dilemma between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.

²³Ecen hertsen naiz alde bietaric, desir dudalaric partitzera eta Christequin içatera: ecen haur vnguiz hobeago dut:

²⁴Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

²⁴Baina haraguian egon nadin necessarioago da çuengatic.

²⁵Having this confidence, I know that I will remain, yes, and remain with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

²⁵Eta haur seguratuqui badaquit, ecen egonen naicela eta perseueraturen dudala çuequin gucioquin çuen auançamendutan, eta çuen fedearen bozcariotan.

²⁶that your rejoicing may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again.

²⁶Abunda dadinçát çuen gloriationea Iesus Christean niçaz, ene berriz çuetaraco ethorteaz.

²⁷Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

²⁷Solament Christen Euangelioari dagocan beçala conuersa eçaçue, bada ethor nadin eta ikus çaitzatedan, bada absent naicén, adi deçadan çuen eguitecoez, ecen perseueratzen duçuela spiritu batetan, gogo batez elkarrequin Euangelioaren fedeaz combatitzen çaretelaric, eta contrastez deusetan icitzen etzaretelaric:

²⁸and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

²⁸Cein baita hayén perditionetaco seignale, eta çuen saluamendutaco, eta haur Iaincoaganic.

²⁹Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,

²⁹Ecen çuey eman içan çaiçue Christgatic, ez solament hura baithan sinhestea, baina harengatic suffritzea-ere:

³⁰having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear is in me.

³⁰Nitan ikussi duçuen, eta orain ençuten duçuen combat bera duçuela.
