1Ko ia, ko hoku kāinga ʻofeina ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ko e fiefiaʻanga mo ʻeku teunga, ʻae ʻofeina lahi, ke mou tuʻumaʻu ʻi he ʻEiki.
1Therefore, my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown; so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
2ʻOku ou kole kia ʻIuotia, pea u kole kia Siniteke, ke na loto taha pe ʻi he ʻEiki.
2I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one mind in the Lord.
3Pea ʻoku ou kole atu kiate koe foki, ko hoku hoa moʻoni, ke ke tokoniʻi ʻae kau fefine ko ia naʻe ngāue mo au ʻi he ongoongolelei, mo Kelemeni foki, pea mo hono toe ʻo ʻeku kaunga ngāue, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tohi ʻoe moʻui honau hingoa.
3And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.
4Fiefia maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻEiki: ʻoku ou toe pehē, Fiefia.
4Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
5Tuku ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē hoʻomou ʻulungāanga lelei. ʻOku ofi ʻae ʻEiki.
5Let your modesty be known to all men. The Lord is nigh.
6ʻOua naʻa tokanga mamahi ki ha meʻa ʻe taha; kae fakahā atu hoʻomou holi ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ki he ʻOtua, ʻi he lotu mo e lotu tāumaʻu mo e fakafetaʻi.
6Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
7Pea ko e melino ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku lahi hake ʻaupito ʻi he faʻa ʻiloa, te ne maluʻi homou laumālie mo homou loto ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.
7And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8E kāinga, ko hono fakaʻosi eni , ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku moʻoni, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku matamatalelei, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku totonu, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku māʻoniʻoni, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fakaʻofoʻofa, ke ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ongoongolelei; kapau ʻoku ai ha lelei, pe ha meʻa ke fakamālōʻia, tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ko ia.
8For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever modest, whatsoever just, whatsoever holy, whatsoever lovely, whatsoever of good fame, if there be any virtue, if any praise of discipline, think on these things.
9Ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia, naʻa mou akonekina ai, mo maʻu, mo ongoʻi, mo mamata ki ai, ʻiate au, fai ia: pea ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻOtua ʻoe melino.
9The things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these do ye, and the God of peace shall be with you.
10Ka naʻaku fiefia lahi ʻi he ʻEiki, koeʻuhi kuo toe ake ki mui ni hoʻomou tokanga kiate au; ʻaia naʻa mou tokanga ai foki, ka naʻa mou taʻehafaingamālie.
10Now I rejoice in the Lord exceedingly, that now at length your thought for me hath flourished again, as you did also think; but you were busied.
11Ka ʻoku ʻikai te u lea koeʻuhi ko ha masiva: he kuo akonekina au, ke u fiemālie ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē teu ʻi ai.
11I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.
12ʻOku ou ʻilo ke fai ʻi he masiva, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo ke fai ʻi he maʻu ʻo lahi: kuo akonekina au ʻi he potu kotoa pē mo e meʻa kotoa pē ke mākona pe fiekaia, ke u maʻu ʻo lahi pea ke kātaki ʻae masiva.
12I know both how to be brought low, and I know how to abound: (everywhere, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, and to be hungry; both to abound, and to suffer need.
13ʻOku ou faʻa fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi ʻoku ne fakamālohiʻi au.
13I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
14Ka neongo ia, kuo mou fai lelei ʻi hoʻomou kau ʻi heʻeku mamahi.
14Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.
15Pea ko eni, ʻae kau Filipai, ke mou ʻilo foki, ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe ongoongolelei, ʻi heʻeku ʻalu mei Masitōnia, naʻe ʻikai kau ha siasi ʻe taha kiate au ʻi he fefoakiʻaki, ka ko kimoutolu pe.
15And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only:
16Naʻa mo ʻeku ʻi Tesalonika naʻa mou tokoni ʻo liunga taha mo liunga ua ki heʻeku masiva.
16For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use.
17Kae ʻikai ʻi heʻeku holi ki ha foaki: ka ʻoku ou holi ki ha fua ʻe ʻaonga kiate kimoutolu.
17Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that may abound to your account.
18Ka kuo ʻiate au kotoa pē, pea lahi ʻaupito: ʻoku ou mahu, he kuo u maʻu ia Epafalotaito ʻae ngaahi meʻa meiate kimoutolu, ko e ngangatu ʻoe meʻa namu kakala, ko e feilaulau ʻaonga, pea lelei ki he ʻOtua.
18But I have all, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
19Ka ʻe taufetuku ʻe hoku ʻOtua ki hoʻomou masiva kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene koloa ʻi he nāunau ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.
19And may my God supply all your want, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20Pea ko eni, ke ʻi he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai ʻae nāunau ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni.
20Now to God and our Father be glory world without end. Amen.
21ʻOfa atu ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi Sisu. Ko e kāinga ʻoku ʻiate au ʻoku ʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu.
21Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus.
22ʻOku ʻofa atu ʻae kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu, kae lahi hake ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi he fale ʻo Sisa.
22The brethren who are with me, salute you. All the saints salute you; especially they that are of Caesar’s household.
23Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. ʻEmeni.
23The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
