AZKEN AHOLKUAK, ESKER ONA ETA AGURRA (4,2-23)

Jaunarengan poztuz

3 Zuri, lagunt zintzo horri, emakume horiei laguntzeko eskatzen dizut, nirekin batera borrokatu baitziren berri onaren aldet, Klemente eta gainerako nire lankideekin batera; hauen izenak biziaren liburuan idatzirik daude.
4 Poz zaitezte Jaunarengan beti! Berriro diotsuet, poz zaiteztet! 5 Ikus dezala jende guztiak zein bihozbera zareten. Hurbil da Jaunat! 6 Ez eduki ezeren kezkarikt, baizik eta, gorabehera guztietan, agertu Jainkoari zeuen eskabideak, otoitz eta erregu eginez eta eskerrak emanez.

7 Eta guk pentsa dezakeguna baino handiago den Jainkoaren bakeakt zainduko ditu zuen gogo-bihotzak Kristo Jesusen bidez.
8 Gainerakoan, senideok, hartzazue aintzat egiazko, gizabidetsu, zuzen, garbi, maitagarri eta goresgarri, bertutetsu eta onargarri den guztia.

9 Egizue niregandik ikasi, hartu eta entzun zenutena eta niregan ikusia. Eta bakea ematen digun Jainkoat zeuekin izanen duzue.

Filipoarrei eskerrak emanez

14 Hala ere, ederki egin zenuten nire atsekabean zeuen solidaritatea agertzean.
15 Badakizue gainera zuek, filipoarrok, berri ona zabaltzen hasi berrian Mazedoniatik atera nintzenean, eliz elkarte bat ere ez zela nire gastuen kargu egint, zuek izan ezik;t 16 Tesalonikant nintzelarik ere bidali zenidaten behin eta birritan nire premietarako behar nuena. 17 Ez uste izan neuretzako mesede bila nabilenik; zuen aldeko kontua handitzea nahi dut.

18 Hartu dut, bada, dena, eta sobera daukat; oso ongi hornitua nago, Epafroditoren eskuz bidali didazuena hartu ondoren. Jainkoak atseginez onartzen duen opariat da zuen emaitza.
19 Nire Jainkoak, bere aldetik, bere aberastasun harrigarriaren arabera erantzungo dizue zeuen premia guztietan, Kristo Jesusen bitartez.

20 Aintza Jainkot gure Aitari menderen mendetan! Amen.

Azken agurra

Philippians 4

Christian Practices

1 So then, my brothers and sisters,t dear friends whom I long to see, my joy and crown, stand in the Lord in this way, my dear friends!
2 I appeal to Euodia and to Syntyche to agree in the Lord.3 Yes, I say also to you, true companion,t help them. They have struggled together in the gospel ministryt along with me and Clement and my other coworkers, whose names are in the book of life.4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, rejoice!5 Let everyone see your gentleness.t The Lord is near!6 Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God.

7 And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and mindst in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters,t whatever is true, whatever is worthy of respect, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if something is excellent or praiseworthy, think about these things.

9 And what you learned and received and heard and saw in me, do these things. And the God of peace will be with you.

Appreciation for Support

10 I have great joy in the Lord because now at last you have again expressed your concern for me. (Now I know you were concerned before but had no opportunity to do anything.)t11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.12 I have experienced times of need and times of abundance. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of contentment,t whether I go satisfied or hungry, have plenty or nothing.13 I am able to do all thingst through the ones who strengthens me.

14 Nevertheless, you did well to share with me in my trouble.
15 And as you Philippians know, at the beginning of my gospel ministry, when I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in this matter of giving and receiving except you alone.16 For even in Thessalonicas on more than one occasiont you sent something for my need.17 I do not say this because I am seeking a gift.t Rather, I seek the credit that abounds to your account.18 For I have received everything, and I have plenty. I have all I need because I received from Epaphroditus what you sent – a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, very pleasing to God.19 And my God will supply your every need according to his glorious richest in Christ Jesus.

20 May glory be given to God our Father forever and ever. Amen.

Final Greetings

21 Give greetings to all the saints in Christ Jesus. The brotherst with me here send greetings.22 All the saints greet you, especially those who belong to Caesar’s household.

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.s
