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 the apostle (not sent from men, nor by man, but by Jesus Christ, and our 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 brethren with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 Zizi ye ni yu'u ni sun si rji ni Irji Bachi mbu ni Bachi mbu Yesu Almasihu.
grace unto 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, that he might pluck us out of this present wicked world, according to the will of God and our Father: (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 quickly departed from him that called you, by the grace of Christ into another gospel
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; but there are certain persons who trouble you, and desire to pervert the gospel of 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 though even we, or an angel from heaven, preach unto you another gospel, different from that which we have preached to you, let him be an anathema.
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 before spoken, and I now repeat it again, If any man preach a gospel different from that ye have received, let him be anathema.
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 use persuasions from men, or from God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11 Mi son du yi toh fa mri yah, itre wa misi dub ni yiwu, ana hi u indji na.
But I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not a merely human ministry.
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 taught, but by immediate revelation from 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 have heard of my former manner of life, when I professed Judaism, that in the most outrageous manner I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
14 Mi ta guchi ni Yahudawa ba zan bari fie me ni zren ba tti mbu u sen.
and signalized myself in Judaism above many of those of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly a zealot for the traditions of my fathers.
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 selected me from my mother’s womb, and called me by 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, that I might preach the glad tidings of him to the nations, immediately I conferred not 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 went up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
18 Naki ma ise tra a kle, imi hi ni Wurushelima ndi mi toh Kefas, mi sun ni yiwu ivie wulon don ton.
Afterwards at the expiration of three years I went up unto Jerusalem to pay a visit to Peter, and I abode 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 saw no other 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 respecting the things which I write unto you, behold, in the presence of God, I lie not.
21 Niki mika hi ni nklan Suriya ba Silisiya.
Afterwards I went 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 personally unknown to the churches of Judea, which are 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.
only they had heard, that he who persecuted us in time past, now preaches the faith which he once laid waste.
24 Basi no Irji ninkon nitu mu.
And they glorified God on my behalf.
