¹ Kon nag yéen samay bokk, ñi ma bëgg te namm leen, di sama mbég ak sama kaalag ndam, jàppleen bu dëgër noonu ci Boroom bi, soppe yi!

¹So then, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand ye in the Lord, beloved.

² Ci lu jëm ci Ewodi ak Santis, maa ngi leen di ñaan, ñu bokk benn xalaat ci Boroom bi.

²Euodia I exhort, and Syntyche I exhort, to be of the same mind in the Lord;

³ Te yaw sama nawle bu wér, nanga dimbali jigéen ñooñu xeexoon ci sama wet ci tas xebaar bu baax bi, boole ci Këlemaŋ ak samay yeneeni nawle, ñoom ñi Yàlla bind seeni tur ci téereb dund ba.

³and I ask also thee, genuine yoke-fellow, be assisting those women who in the good news did strive along with me, with Clement also, and the others, my fellow-workers, whose names [are] in the book of life.

⁴ Deeleen bég ci Boroom bi; maa ngi koy waxati: bégleen!

⁴Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice;

⁵ Na seen lewet leer ñépp. Boroom bi jege na.

⁵let your forbearance be known to all men; the Lord [is] near;

⁶ Buleen jaaxle ci dara, waaye ci lépp wéetal-leen Yàlla, diis ko seeni soxla ci ñaan gu ànd ak cant.

⁶for nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God;

⁷ Noonu jàmmu Yàlla, ji xel mënta takk, dina aar seeni xol ak seeni xalaat ci darajay Kirist Yeesu.

⁷and the peace of God, that is surpassing all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

⁸ Léegi nag bokk yi, na seen xalaat jublu ci lii: lu dëggu, lu jekk, lu jub, lu sell, lu rafet ak lu faaydawu; su fi amee lu baax mbaa lu mat a naw, xalaatleen ko.

⁸As to the rest, brethren, as many things as are true, as many as [are] grave, as many as [are] righteous, as many as [are] pure, as many as [are] lovely, as many as [are] of good report, if any worthiness, and if any praise, these things think upon;

⁹ Li ngeen jànge ci man te nangu ko, li ngeen dégge ci man te gis ko, jëfeleen ko; kon Yàllay jàmm dina ànd ak yéen.

⁹the things that also ye did learn, and receive, and hear, and saw in me, those do, and the God of the peace shall be with you.

¹⁰ Sama xol sedd na guyy ci Boroom bi, ci ni ngeen yeesale seen ndimbal ci man. Xam naa ne, amoon ngeen yéene ji, waaye man gi moo fi nekkul woon.

¹⁰And I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye flourished again in caring for me, for which also ye were caring, and lacked opportunity;

¹¹ Ba tey soxla taxul ma waxe nii, ndaxte jàng naa doylu ci mbir mu ma man a dab.

¹¹not that in respect of want I say [it], for I did learn in the things in which I am — to be content;

¹² Miin naa ñàkk, man naa naataange. Ci fépp ak ci lépp, Yàlla def na ba sama xol toj ci suur ak xiif, barele ak néewle.

¹²I have known both to be abased, and I have known to abound; in everything and in all things I have been initiated, both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want.

¹³ Man naa lépp ci ndimbalu Aji Dooleel ji.

¹³For all things I have strength, in Christ`s strengthening me;

¹⁴ Waaye teewul taxawu, bi ngeen ma taxawu ci sama tiis, jëf ju rafet la.

¹⁴but ye did well, having communicated with my tribulation;

¹⁵ Yéen waa Filib xam ngeen ne, bi ngeen jëkkee xam xebaar bu baax bi, te ma jóge diiwaanu Maseduwan, benn mbooloo àndul woon ak man ci mbirum joqleente ndimbal, mu dul yéen doŋŋ.

¹⁵and ye have known, even ye Philippians, that in the beginning of the good news when I went forth from Macedonia, no assembly did communicate with me in regard to giving and receiving except ye only;

¹⁶ Ba ma nekkee dëkku Tesalonig sax, yónnee ngeen ay yooni yoon, ngir faj samay soxla.

¹⁶because also in Thessalonica, both once and again to my need ye sent;

¹⁷ Loolu tekkiwul ne, damay sàkku ay ndimbal ci yéen, waaye damaa bëgg rekk seen denc yokku fa Yàlla.

¹⁷not that I seek after the gift, but I seek after the fruit that is overflowing to your account;

¹⁸ Fi mu ne jot naa li ma aajowoo lépp, ba maa ngi ci naataange; li ngeen ma yónnee ci loxoy Epafrodit doy na sëkk; ni xetu latkoloñ la mel ci man, di sarax su neex Yàlla te mu nangu ko.

¹⁸and I have all things, and abound; I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things from you — an odour of a sweet smell — a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God:

¹⁹ Te Yàlla sama Boroom, mi denc ci Kirist Yeesu xéewal yu dul jeex, dina ci faj seeni soxla yépp.

¹⁹and my God shall supply all your need, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus;

²⁰ Na Yàlla sunu Baay yelloo ndam ba fàww. Amiin.

²⁰and to God, even our Father, [is] the glory — to the ages of the ages. Amen.

²¹ Nuyul-leen ma gaayi Kirist Yeesu yu sell yépp. Bokk yi ànd ak man, ñu ngi leen di nuyu.

²¹Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus; there salute you the brethren with me;

²² Te it gaayi Yàlla yu sell yépp ñu ngi leen di nuyu, rawatina nag ñi nekk kër buur bi Sesaar.

²²there salute you all the saints, and specially those of Caesar`s house;

²³ Na yiwu Boroom bi Yeesu Kirist ànd ak seen xel.

²³the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all. Amen.
