Galatiyawa 1
1 Bulus, indji u toh du toh du mu, ana rji ni ndji na, naki a rji ni Yesu Almasihu ni Irji Bachi wa a rju'u ni mi be -
Paul, an apostle (not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised him from the dead),
2 Ime ni mri vayi mu wa ba hei ni me ni wayi, misi han ni yu'u iklisiyoyi wa ba heini Galatiya.
and all the brothers with me, to the congregations of Galatia:
3 Zizi ye ni yu'u ni sun si rji ni Irji Bachi mbu ni Bachi mbu Yesu Almasihu.
Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ
4 Wa ano tuma nitu lahtre mbu, nda chu ta rju ni meme ngbungblu yi, ni mri Irji ni Bachi mbu. (aiōn g165)
who gave himself for our sins, so that he might rescue us, according to the will of our God and Father, out of the evil age that has come, (aiōn g165)
to whom is the glory into the ages of the ages. Truly. (aiōn g165)
6 Mi manji ma wokran kpukpome wa bi kma hu nkon ri gbagbla me hi ni itre ri kan naki mi manji ma wokran yada bi kabi ni wa ayo yi ni zizi u Almasihu.
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him who called you in the grace of Christ to another good news,
7 Itre ri na hei na naki, indji bari wa ba jin wa yu ni ye, ba son nda kpah tre Almasihu ti meme.
which is not another, except there are some who confuse you, and who want to pervert the good news of the Christ.
8 Naki kita ni u to ndu Irji rjini shu nda hla tre ri kan ni yu ni wa kita ki duba ni yu'u, ba hla ndi kima.
But even if we, or an agent from heaven, should preach a good news to you contrary to what we preached to you, let him be accursed.
9 Na yada ki hla ni yiwu ni mumla, zizan mi si hla ni yiwu, inde ndji ri a la dub itre ri kan ni wa bi kpa ba hla'u.
As we have said before, I now also say again, if any man preaches a good news to you contrary to what ye received, let him be accursed.
10 Zizan misi wa shaida ndi ko u Irji? misi wa du ndi duba kpa yeim ni me? inde zizan mi sima ndi dun ndji kpa nyeme nime, i mina gran Almasihu na.
For do I now trust men or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I were still pleasing men I would not be a bondman of Christ.
11 Mi son du yi toh fa mri yah, itre wa misi dub ni yiwu, ana hi u indji na.
For I make known to you, brothers, the good news that was preached by me, that it is not according to man.
12 Mina kpa ni ndji na, indrjori na tsro me na, nakima Yesu Almasihu'a hran ni mu.
For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it was through revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 Bi riga di wo na mina hei nimi Yahudawa, ndi ta ti iklisiya Irji yah kpukpome zan bari di kpa ba tie meme.
For ye heard of my former behavior in Judaism, that I persecuted the church of God to extraordinariness, and ravaged it.
14 Mi ta guchi ni Yahudawa ba zan bari fie me ni zren ba tti mbu u sen.
And I advanced in Judaism beyond many contemporaries among my race, being a more extreme zealot of my paternal traditions.
15 Naki ma Irji toh a bi du chu me ni ne yi mu rju nda yo me ni mi ndindima.
But when it pleased God who separated me from my mother's belly, and called me through his grace,
16 A tsro ta ivren ma, dume dub ni biwa bana toh Irji na. Gbagbla mi na suron mu ni nanma ni yi na.
to reveal his Son in me, so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not straightaway confer with flesh and blood,
17 Nakima mina hi ni Wurushelima na ni bi wa ba guchi hi toh ndu nimu na. Naki ma mi ka yi ni Arabiya, niki me ka k'ma ye ni Damasku.
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles before me, but I went into Arabia and returned again to Damascus.
18 Naki ma ise tra a kle, imi hi ni Wurushelima ndi mi toh Kefas, mi sun ni yiwu ivie wulon don ton.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit with Peter, and I remained with him fifteen days.
19 Niki mina toh ko indji ri na ni mi mbi ton du na, se Yakubu ni kagrji ma vayi Bachi mbu.
But I did not see another of the apostles except James the Lord's brother.
20 To ba ni k'bu Irji mina si ti ce ni tu ikpe wa mi han ni yiwu na.
Now what I write to you, behold before God, I do not lie.
21 Niki mika hi ni nklan Suriya ba Silisiya.
Later I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 Ni nton kima indrjo na toh me ni shishi ni iklisiyoyi Yahudawa wa ba he ni mi Almasihu na.
And I was unknown by face to the congregations of Judea in Christ,
23 Nakima baka woh ndi, ndji wa ta ti ta yah, zizan asi dub kponji tre wa ana son da kpa tie meme.
but they were only hearing that the man who once persecuted us now preaches the good news, the faith that he once ravaged.
24 Basi no Irji ninkon nitu mu.
And they glorified God in me.
