1 W aayo, walaalayaalow, waxaad og tihiin imaatinkayagii aannu idiin nimid inuusan noqon mid aan waxtar lahayn.

For you yourselves know, brethren, that our coming among you was not useless and fruitless.

2 L aakiinse annagoo awil aad ugu xanuunsannay oo lanagu ceebeeyey Filiboy, sidaad og tihiin, waxaannu ku dhiirranaannay Ilaaheenna inaannu injiilka Ilaah idiin sheegno annagoo dhib badan ku jirna.

But though we had already suffered and been outrageously treated at Philippi, as you know, yet in our God we summoned courage to proclaim to you unfalteringly the good news (the Gospel) with earnest contention and much conflict and great opposition.

3 W aayo, waanadayadu kama iman qalad ama wasakh ama khiyaano,

For our appeal does not from delusion or error or impure purpose or motive, nor in fraud or deceit.

4 l aakiinse siduu Ilaah noogu bogay inuu nagu ammaaneeyo injiilka, sidaasaannu u hadalnaa, mana aha inaannu dadka ka farxinno, laakiinse inaannu ka farxinno Ilaaha qalbigayaga imtixaama.

But just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the glad tidings (the Gospel), so we speak not to please men but to please God, Who tests our hearts '> expecting them to be approved].

5 S idaad og tihiin, marnaba kuma aannu isticmaalin hadal sasabasho ah ama damacnimo qarsoon, oo taas Ilaah baa marag ka ah.

For as you well know, we never resorted either to words of flattery or to any cloak to conceal greedy motives or pretexts for gain, God is our witness.

6 D adka xaggiisana ammaan kama aannu doondoonin, ama xaggiinna ha noqoto, ama xagga dad kale, in kastoo aan culaab idinku noqon kari lahayn, annagoo ah rasuulladii Masiixa.

Nor did we seek to extract praise and honor and glory from men, either from you or from anyone else, though we might have asserted our authority as apostles (special missionaries) of Christ (the Messiah).

7 L aakiin dhexdiinna waxaannu idiinku roonayn sida mid carruurteeda nuujisa ay iyaga u dhaqaalayso.

But we behaved gently when we were among you, like a devoted mother nursing and cherishing her own children.

8 S idaas daraaddeed, annagoo aad idiin jecel, ayaannu ku faraxnay inaannu wax idin siinno, mana aha injiilka Ilaah oo keliya, laakiinse xataa naftayada, maxaa yeelay, waxaad noo noqoteen kuwo aan jecel nahay.

So, being thus tenderly and affectionately desirous of you, we continued to share with you not only God’s good news (the Gospel) but also our own lives as well, for you had become so very dear to us.

9 W aayo, waad xusuusan tihiin, walaalayaalow, sidaannu dhib iyo daal ugu shaqaynay habeen iyo maalinba, inaannan midkiinna culaysin, oo waxaannu idinku wacdinnay injiilka Ilaah.

For you recall our hard toil and struggles, brethren. We worked night and day in order not to be a burden to any of you while we proclaimed the glad tidings (the Gospel) of God to you.

10 I dinkuna markhaati baad ka tihiin, Ilaahna wuu ka yahay, sidaannu daahir iyo xaq iyo ceebla'aan kula macaamiloonnay kuwiinna rumaysan.

You are witnesses, and God, how unworldly and upright and blameless was our behavior toward you believers.

11 S idaad og tihiin waxaannu midkiin kastaba kula macaamiloonnay sida aabbe carruurtiisa ula macaamiloodo, annagoo idin waaninayna oo idin dhiirigelinayna oo idiin markhaati furayna,

For you know how, as a father his children, we used to exhort each of you personally, stimulating and encouraging and charging you

12 i naad u socotaan si istaahisha Ilaaha idiinku yeedhay boqortooyadiisa iyo ammaantiisa. Silec

To live lives worthy of God, Who calls you into His own kingdom and the glorious blessedness '> into which true believers will enter after Christ’s return].

13 O o sababtaas daraaddeed ayaannu joogsila'aan Ilaah ugu mahadnaqnaa in, markii aad naga hesheen ereygii Ilaah oo aad naga maqasheen, aydnaan u aqbalin sidii dad hadalkiis laakiin siduu run u yahay ereygii Ilaah oo haddana idinka dhex shaqeeya kuwiinna rumaysan.

And we also thank God continually for this, that when you received the message of God from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it truly is, the Word of God, which is effectually at work in you who believe '> exercising its superhuman power in those who adhere to and trust in and rely on it].

14 W aayo, walaalayaalow, waxaad noqoteen kuwo ku dayday dadka kiniisadaha Ilaah oo Yahuudiya jooga, kuwaas oo ah kuwa Ciise Masiix, maxaa yeelay, idinkuna waxaad dadkiinna ka hesheen dhibtaas oo kale, siday iyaguba uga heleen Yuhuudda,

For you, brethren, became imitators of the assemblies (churches) of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea, for you too have suffered the same kind of treatment from your own fellow countrymen as they did of the Jews,

15 o o ah kuwii dilay Rabbi Ciise iyo nebiyadiiba, oo annagana dibadda noo eryay, oo aan Ilaah ka farxin, dadka oo dhanna ka geesta ah.

Who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and harassed and drove us out, and continue to make themselves hateful and offensive to God and to show themselves foes of all men,

16 O o waxay noo diidaan inaannu dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn la hadalno inay badbaadaan. Sidaasay mar walba dembiyadooda u dhammaystiraan, laakiin ugu dambaysta cadhada waa ku dul degtay. Bawlos Wuxuu Doonayay Inuu Mar Kale Kiniisadda Soo Booqdo

Forbidding and hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles (the nations) that they may be saved. So as always they fill up their sins. But God’s wrath has come upon them at last!

17 L aakiin, walaalayaalow, annagoo wakhti yar lanaga kiin qaaday, xagga isla-joogidda ee ayan ahayn xagga qalbiga, aad iyo aad baannu ugu dadaalnay inaannu wejigiinna aragno, annagoo xiiso weyn u qabna;

But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a little while in person, not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great longing to see you face to face,

18 w aayo, waannu jeclaan lahayn inaannu idiin nimaadno, anigoo Bawlos ah mar iyo lababa waan jeclaa, laakiinse Shayddaan baa naga hor joogsaday.

Because it was our will to come to you. I, Paul, again and again, but Satan hindered and impeded us.

19 M axaa yeelay, waa ayo rajadayada iyo farxaddayada iyo taajka faanidda oo ahaan doona Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix hortiisa goortuu yimaado? Sow idinka ma aha?

For what is our hope or happiness or our victor’s wreath of exultant triumph when we stand in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming? Is it not you?

20 W aa idinka faankayaga iyo farxaddayaduba.

For you are our glory and our joy!
