| [1]If there be thereforeG3767 anyG1536 consolationG3874 inG1722 ChristG5547, if anyG1536 comfortG3890 of loveG26, if anyG1536 fellowshipG2842 of the SpiritG4151, if anyG1536 bowelsG4698 andG2532 merciesG3628, |
[1]IF, therefore, you have consolation in the Meshiha, and if there be comfort in love,ⓘ and if communion of the Spirit, and if compassions and mercies, |
| [2]Fulfil yeG4137[G5657] myG3450 joyG5479, thatG2443 ye be likemindedG846[G5426][G5725], havingG2192[G5723] the sameG846 loveG26, being of one accordG4861, of oneG1520 mindG5426.[G5723] |
[2]Complete my gladness by having one sentiment and one love, and one soul and one mind. |
| [3]Let nothingG3367 be done throughG2596 strifeG2052 orG2228 vaingloryG2754; butG235 in lowliness of mindG5012 letG2233 eachG240 esteemG2233[G5740] otherG240 better thanG5242[G5723] themselvesG1438. |
[3]And do nothing in contention or vainglorying, but in meekness of mind let a man consider his neighbour as better than himself. |
| [4]LookG4648[G5720] notG3361 every manG1538 on his own thingsG1438, butG235 every manG1538 alsoG2532 on the thingsG3588 of othersG2087. |
[4]And let no one care for himself [only], but every one for his neighbour also. |
| [5][G1063]LetG5426 thisG5124 mind beG5426[G5744] inG1722 youG5213, whichG3739 was alsoG2532 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424: |
[5]And feelⓘ this in yourselves, which Jeshu the Meshiha [did] also: |
| [6]WhoG3739, beingG5225[G5723] inG1722 the formG3444 of GodG2316, thought itG2233[G5662] notG3756 robberyG725 to beG1511[G5750] equalG2470 with GodG2316: |
[6]Who, when he was in the form of Aloha, considered this not to be robbery, (this, namely,) that he was the co-equal of Aloha: |
| [7]ButG235 madeG2758 himselfG1438 of no reputationG2758[G5656], and took upon himG2983[G5631] the formG3444 of a servantG1401, and was madeG1096[G5637] inG1722 the likenessG3667 of menG444: |
[7]Yet emptied he himself, and took the form of a servant, and was made in the form of men; and in fashion was found as a man, |
| [8]AndG2532 being foundG2147[G5685] in fashionG4976 asG5613 a manG444, he humbledG5013[G5656] himselfG1438, and becameG1096[G5637] obedientG5255 untoG3360 deathG2288, evenG1161 the deathG2288 of the crossG4716. |
[8]And humbled himself, and was obedient unto death, but the death of the cross. |
| [9]WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 hath highly exaltedG5251[G5656] himG846, andG2532 givenG5483[G5662] himG846 a nameG3686 whichG3588 is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686: |
[9]Wherefore also Aloha greatly exalted him, and gave him a name that is more excellent than all names, |
| [10]ThatG2443 atG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 everyG3956 kneeG1119 should bowG2578[G5661], of things in heavenG2032, andG2532 things in earthG1919, andG2532 things under the earthG2709; |
[10]That at the name of Jeshu every knee should kneel, of those in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth; |
| [11]AndG2532 that everyG3956 tongueG1100 should confessG1843[G5672] thatG3754 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is LordG2962, toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962. |
[11]And that every tongue should confess that Jeshu the Meshiha is the Lord, to the glory of Aloha his Father. |
| [12]WhereforeG5620, myG3450 belovedG27, asG2531 ye haveG5219 alwaysG3842 obeyedG5219[G5656], notG3361 asG5613 inG1722 myG3450 presenceG3952 onlyG3440, butG235 nowG3568 muchG4183 moreG3123 inG1722 myG3450 absenceG666, work outG2716[G5737] your ownG1438 salvationG4991 withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156. |
[12]WHEREFORE, my beloved, as you have all time obeyed, not while I am near you only, but now that I am far from you, the more with fear and trembling work the work of your salvation; |
| [13]ForG1063 it isG2076[G5748] GodG2316 whichG3588 workethG1754[G5723] inG1722 youG5213 bothG2532 to willG2309[G5721] andG2532 to doG1754[G5721] ofG5228 his good pleasureG2107. |
[13]For Aloha himself effectuatesⓘ in you also to will, also to do, the thing which you will.ⓘ |
| [14]DoG4160[G5720] all thingsG3956 withoutG5565 murmuringsG1112 andG2532 disputingsG1261: |
[14]Do every thing without murmuring and without division; |
| [15]ThatG2443 ye may beG1096[G5638] blamelessG273 andG2532 harmlessG185, the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, without rebukeG298, inG1722 the midstG3319 of a crookedG4646 andG2532 perverseG1294[G5772] nationG1074, amongG1722 whomG3739 ye shineG5316[G5743] asG5613 lightsG5458 inG1722 the worldG2889; |
[15]That you may be perfect and without spot, as the pure children of Aloha, who dwell in a generation depraved and perverse; and be manifest among them as luminaries in the world, |
| [16]Holding forthG1907[G5723] the wordG3056 of lifeG2222; thatG1519 IG1698 may rejoiceG2745 inG1519 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547, thatG3754 I haveG5143 notG3756 runG5143[G5627] inG1519 vainG2756, neitherG3761 labouredG2872[G5656] inG1519 vainG2756. |
[16]To be unto them for a place of salvation, for my exultation in the day of the Meshiha, that I may not have run in vain, nor laboured to no purpose. |
| [17]YeaG235, and ifG1499 I be offeredG4689[G5743] uponG1909 the sacrificeG2378 andG2532 serviceG3009 of yourG5216 faithG4102, I joyG5463[G5719], andG2532 rejoice withG4796[G5719] youG5213 allG3956. |
[17]But, also,ⓘ offered on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad, and rejoice with you all; |
| [18]ForG1161 the same causeG846 alsoG2532 doG5463 yeG5210 joyG5463[G5720], andG2532 rejoice withG4796[G5720] meG3427. |
[18]So also you be glad and rejoice with me. |
| [19]ButG1161 I trustG1679[G5719] inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 to sendG3992[G5658] TimotheusG5095 shortlyG5030 unto youG5213, thatG2443 I alsoG2504 may be of good comfortG2174[G5725], when I knowG1097[G5631] yourG5216 stateG4012. |
[19]But I hope in our Lord Jeshu to send Timotheos to you soon, that I also may have quietness when I learn concerning you. |
| [20]ForG1063 I haveG2192[G5719] no manG3762 likemindedG2473, whoG3748 will naturallyG1104 careG3309[G5692] for yourG5216 stateG4012. |
[20]For I have no other who is so as my [own] soul, who will diligently take care for yours. |
| [21]ForG1063 allG3956 seekG2212[G5719] their ownG1438, notG3756 the things which areG3588 JesusG2424 Christ'sG5547. |
[21]For all are seeking what is theirs, and not what is of Jeshu Meshiha. |
| [22]ButG1161 ye knowG1097[G5719] the proofG1382 of himG846, thatG3754, asG5613 a sonG5043 with the fatherG3962, he hath servedG1398[G5656] withG4862 meG1698 inG1519 the gospelG2098. |
[22]But the proof of this [evangelist] you know, that as a son with his father, so hath he wrought with me in the gospel. Him, therefore, |
| [23]HimG3303[G5126] thereforeG3767 I hopeG1679[G5719] to sendG3992[G5658] presentlyG1824, so soon asG5613 IG302 shall seeG542[G5632] howG4012 it will go with meG1691. |
[23]I hope to send to you speedily, when I shall have seen what [will be done] with me. |
| [24]ButG1161 I trustG3982[G5754] inG1722 the LordG2962 thatG3754 IG2064 alsoG2532 myselfG846 shall comeG2064[G5695] shortlyG5030. |
[24]And I confide on my Lord, that I also speedily shall come unto you. |
| [25]YetG1161 I supposedG2233[G5662] it necessaryG316 to sendG3992[G5658] toG4314 youG5209 EpaphroditusG1891, myG3450 brotherG80, andG2532 companion in labourG4904, andG2532 fellowsoldierG4961, butG1161 yourG5216 messengerG652, andG2532 he that ministeredG3011 to myG3450 wantsG5532. |
[25]But now the matter hath pressed me to send to you the brother Epaphroditos, who is a helper and labourer with me, but your messenger and minister to my necessity; |
| [26]ForG1894 heG2258[G5713] longed afterG1971[G5723] youG5209 allG3956, andG2532 was full of heavinessG85[G5723], becauseG1360 that ye had heardG191[G5656] thatG3754 he had been sickG770.[G5656] |
[26]For he desired to see you all, and was anxious, because he knew that you had heard that he was sick. |
| [27]ForG1063 indeedG2532 he was sickG770[G5656] nighG3897 unto deathG2288: butG235 GodG2316 had mercyG1653[G5656] on himG846; andG1161 notG3756 on himG846 onlyG3440, butG235 on meG1691 alsoG2532, lestG3363 I should haveG2192[G5632] sorrowG3077 uponG1909 sorrowG3077. |
[27]Yes, he was sick, unto death; but Aloha had mercy upon him; but not upon him only, but upon me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow. |
| [28]I sentG3992[G5656] himG846 thereforeG3767 the more carefullyG4708, thatG2443, when ye seeG1492[G5631] himG846 againG3825, ye may rejoiceG5463[G5647], and that IG2504 may beG5600[G5753] the less sorrowfulG253. |
[28]Urgently, therefore, have I sent him to you, that when you have seen him again you may rejoice, and that I may have a little breathing. |
| [29]ReceiveG4327[G5737] himG846 thereforeG3767 inG1722 the LordG2962 withG3326 allG3956 gladnessG5479; andG2532 holdG2192[G5720] suchG5108 in reputationG1784: |
[29]Receive him, then, in the Lord with all joy; and those who are such, hold in estimation: |
| [30]BecauseG3754 forG1223 the workG2041 of ChristG5547 he was nighG1448[G5656] untoG3360 deathG2288, not regardingG3851[G5666] his lifeG5590, toG2443 supplyG378[G5661] yourG5216 lackG5303 of serviceG3009 towardG4314 meG3165. |
[30]Because for the work of the Meshiha he had come nigh unto death, and was disregardful of his life, that he might accomplish that which you had wanted in the service which concerned me. |
