Ŵagalatia 1
1 Une che Paolo, jundi nduna ngaŵa kwa kusagulikwa ni ŵandu atamuno ngaŵa kwa ukombole wa ŵandu, nambo sagulikwe ni Che Yesu Kilisito ni Akunnungu Atati, ŵaŵansyusisye Che Yesu,
Paul, an apostle (not from humans, nor through humans, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
2 ni achapwetu wose ŵaali pamo ni une tukunkomasya mwanya mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito jajili ku chilambo cha ku Galatia.
and all the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 Tukummendela upile ni chitendewele kutyochela kwa Akunnungu Atati ŵetu ni kwa Ambuje Che Yesu Kilisito.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Kilisito ŵalityosisye asyene kuŵa mbopesi kwa ligongo lya sambi syetu kuti atukulupusye pachilambo changalumbana cha sambano chi, kwa usache wa Akunnungu ŵetu ni Atati. (aiōn g165)
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father— (aiōn g165)
to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Nkusimosya inkuti pakwaleka chitemape Akunnungu ŵammilasile kwa upile wa Kilisito ni nkujikuya ngani jambone jine jine.
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you by the grace of Christ to a different Good News;
7 Isyene ngapagwa Ngani Jambone jine. Nambo apali ŵandu ŵakuntindanya ŵanyamwe, ŵandu ŵakusaka kujigalausya Ngani Jambone ja Kilisito.
and there is not another Good News. Only there are some who trouble you, and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
8 Nambo, iŵaga jumo jwetu pane achikatumetume ŵa kwinani, channalichile ngani jine jine jangajikulandana ni ajila jitwannalichile uweji, alwesechekwe ni Akunnungu!
But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a Good News other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
9 Twamasile kuŵecheta, ni sambano nguujila nguŵecheta, iŵaga chachinnalichila mundu jwine Ngani Jambone jine, jangajikulandana ni jejila jimwamasile kupochela, alwesechekwe ni Akunnungu!
As we have said before, so I now say again: if anyone preaches to you a Good News other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
10 Sambano ngusaka nanonyelesye ŵaani! Nanonyelesye ŵandu, pane Akunnungu? Ngasachile kwanonyelesya ŵandu, ngangaŵe kose jwakutumichila jwa Kilisito.
For am I now seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? For if I were still pleasing people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
11 Achalongo achinjangu, ngusaka mmanyilile kuti Ngani Jambone jinanlalichile jila nganijiŵa ngani ja kutyochela kwa mundu.
But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not of human origin.
12 Nipele une nganinajipochela kutyochela kwa mundu jwalijose atamuno nganapagwa mundu juŵanyigenye. Che Yesu Kilisito asyene ni jwamunukulile une.
For neither did I receive it from a human, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 Usyene mwamasile kupilikana indite pakutama kalakala kwa kulikuya litala lya Chiyahudi lya kwapopelela Akunnungu ni indite pakwalagasya kwa nnope mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni kusaka kwajonanga pangali chanasa.
For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how I severely persecuted the church of God, and tried to destroy it.
14 Elo, une naapundile Ŵayahudi achinjangu achajinji ŵa lisusa limo ni une kwa kulikuya litala lya Chiyahudi lya kwapopelela Akunnungu, ni nachalile kuchikamulisya chisyoŵelo cha achambuje ŵetu.
I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 Nambo Akunnungu, kwa upile wao ŵasagwile une namose ngunaŵe kupagwa, ŵamilasile naatumichile.
But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb and called me through his grace, was pleased
16 Paŵasachile kuumunukulila Mwanagwe munkati mwangu kuti nalichile Ngani Jambone nkati Che Yesu Kilisito kwa ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, nganinyaula kukwausya ŵandu ŵane yakuti kuganisya,
to reveal his Son to me, that I might preach him among those who are not Jewish, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
17 namose nganinyaula ku Yelusalemu kukuwonegana ni aŵala ŵaŵaliji achinduna kabula nganime nduna nambo najawile kaje ku Alabia, nipele nausile sooni ku Damesiki.
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
18 Payapite yaka itatu pe, nipele nakwesile kwaula ku Yelusalemu kukuwonegana ni che Kefa jwakumanyika kwa liina lya che Petulo, nalonjele nawo kwa moŵa likumi ni nsano.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas and get information from him, and stayed with him fifteen days.
19 Nambo nganinaawona achinduna ŵane ikaŵe che Yakobo, apwao Ambuje.
But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's brother.
20 Gelega gingunnembela gali ga isyene, Akunnungu akumanyilila kuti nganguŵecheta ya unami.
Now about the things which I write to you, look, before God, I'm not lying.
21 Kanyuma najawile ku chilambo cha Silia ni Kilikia.
Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 Nambo katema ko, mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkukulupilila Kilisito ŵa chilambo cha ku Yudea ŵaliji nganamone une.
I was still unknown by face to the churches of Judea which were in Christ,
23 Chiŵachimanyaga ni chechila pe chiŵachipilikene, “Jwejula mundu juŵatusawisye uwe kalakala, sambano akulalichila chikulupi chilachila cha Ngani Jambone chiŵalingaga kuchijonanga kalakala chila.”
but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy."
24 Nipele, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu kwa ligongo lyangu une.
And they glorified God because of me.
