Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
Kai, Pawl loe (kami khae hoi ih na ai, kami mah patoeh ih doeh na ai, anih duekhaih thung hoi pathawkkung, Jesu Kri hoi Ampa Sithaw mah patoeh ih kami) ni;
2 and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
kai hoi nawnto kaom nawkamyanawk boih mah, Kalati prae ih kricaabunawk khaeah:
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
Ampa Sithaw, aicae Angraeng Jesu Kri khae hoi ih tahmenhaih hoi monghaih to nangcae khaeah om nasoe, tiah ca kang tarik o,
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age (aiōn g165), according to the will of our God and Father—
aicae Ampa Sithaw koehhaih baktih, vaihi dung thuem ih kahoih ai hae long thung hoiah aicae pahlong thai hanah, Anih loe angmah hoi angmah to angpaek boeh, (aiōn g165)
Anih khaeah tahamhoihaih dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to om nasoe. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,
Kri tahmenhaih thungah kawkkung khae hoi kalah tamthanglok hoih bangah, karangah nang puen o ving pongah ka dawnrai.
7 but there is not another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
To kalah tamthanglok hoih loe, kahoih tamthanglok tangtang na ai ni; nangcae raihaih paek moe, kahoih Kri tamthanglok hoiah angqoisak ving han kakoeh thoemto kaminawk oh o.
8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
Toe nangcae khaeah kang thuih o ih tamthanglok hoih laep ah kalah tamthanglok hoih to kaicae mah maw, to tih ai boeh loe van kami maeto mah maw taphong nahaeloe, to tiah taphong kami to tangoenghaih tong nasoe.
9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
Kang thuih o tangcae baktih toengah, vaihi doeh kang thuih o let, mi kawbaktih mah doeh na talawk o tangcae kahoih tamthanglok laep ah kalah tamthanglok to taphong nahaeloe, to tiah taphong kami to tangoenghaih tong nasoe.
10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Kai mah vaihi kami koehhaih maw ka sak, to tih ai boeh loe Sithaw koeh haih? To tih ai boeh loe kaminawk palung anghoesak han ih maw ka sak? Kaminawk palung anghoesak han ih ka sak nahaeloe, Kri ih tamna ah ka om mak ai.
11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.
Nawkamyanawk, kai mah taphong ih kahoih tamthanglok loe kami mah sak rumram ih na ai ni, tiah panoeksak han ka koeh.
12 For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
Kami khae hoi ka hnu ai, amtuk ih doeh na ai ah, Jesu Kri amtuenghaih rang hoiah ni ka hnuk.
13 For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged it.
Canghni Judah phung ah ka oh nathuem ih kai khosakhaih dan hoi kawbangmaw Sithaw ih kricaabu to ka sak thaih thung ka pacaekthlaek moe, amro hanah ka pacaeng, tito na panoek o boeh:
14 I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
kai loe kam panawk ih khosakhaih atawk bangah poek angpaek hmoek kami ah ka oh, kaimacae acaeng thung ih kai hoi huih to kaminawk pongah doeh Judah bokhaih bangah ka cak kue.
15 But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace,
Toe Sithaw mah ang tahmen pongah, a tahmenhaih rang hoiah angmah hanah kam no ih zok thung hoiah ni kai ang kawk boeh.
16 to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk khaeah anih kawng to taphong moe, kai khaeah a Capa amtuengsak hanah, taksa ah athii kazoi kaminawk khaeah lok ka thui ai:
17 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.
ka hma ah kaom patoeh ih kaminawk hnuk hanah Jerusalem ah ka caeh ai; Arab prae ah ni ka caeh lat moe, Damaska ah kam laem let.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
Saning thumto pacoengah, Piter hnuk hanah Jerusalem ah ka caeh tahang, anih khaeah ni hatlai pangato ka cam.
19 But of the other apostles I saw no one except James, the Lord’s brother.
Toe Angraeng ih amnawk Jakob khue ai ah loe, patoeh ih kalah kaminawk maeto doeh ka hnu ai.
20 Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I am not lying.
Vaihi nangcae khaeah kang tarik ih hae loknawk loe lok amlaihaih roe om ai, tiah Sithaw hmaa ah ka thuih.
21 Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
To pacoengah Syria hoi Cilicia ah ka caeh;
22 I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,
kai loe Judea prae thung ih Kri ah kaom kricaabunawk hoi krang angmathaih ka tawn ai:
23 but they only heard, “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”
kaminawk mah canghni ah aicae pacaekthlaek kami loe, vaihi angmah phraek ih tanghaih kawng to taphong lat boeh, tiah thuih o ih lok khue ni nihcae mah thaih o.
24 So they glorified God in me.
To naah kai rang hoiah nihcae mah Sithaw to saphaw o.
