Galatians 4
1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a bondservant, though he is lord of all,
Su ntakula vinu, muhala pakawera kankali mwana mdidini hapeni kaweri ntambu yingi na mumanda tembera ulunda woseri uwera wakuwi.
2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed by the father.
Mweni kawera pasi pa walera wakuwi na yawalolera ulunda wakuwi mpaka shipindi sha kuhala shashitulitwi na tati gwakuwi.
3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.
Ntambu iraa ayi twenga patuweriti handa twankali wana wadidini tuweriti wamanda wa vintu vyaviwera na uwezu vyavikolamlima pasipanu.
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,
Kumbiti shipindi shilii shashitulitwi pashisokiti, Mlungu kamtumiti mwana gwakuwi yakayiwukiti kwa mdala, yomberi kiwukiti pasi pa Malagaliru Mlungu gakamupananiti Musa,
5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as children.
kapati kuwalopoziya wantu woseri yawawera pasi pa Malagaliru, su tupati kutendwa wana wa Mlungu.
6 And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”
Toziya vinu mwenga mwawana wakuwi, Mlungu kamtumiti Rohu gwa Mwana gwakuwi mumyoyu mwenu, Rohu yakashema “Aba” mana yakuwi “Tati.”
7 So you are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Su gwenga gwa mumanda ndiri kayi, kumbiti gwamwana na gwenga paguwera mwana, su haguwanki goseri Mlungu gakawatuliriti wana wakuwi.
8 However at that time, not knowing God, you were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods.
Makashu pamumumaniti ndiri Mlungu, muweriti wamanda wa vilii vyaviwera ndiri milungu nakaka.
9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be in bondage all over again?
Kumbiti vinu mumumana Mlungu ama nongi mumanikana na Mlungu, iwera hashi mwankuviwuyira vintu legilegi na vyavihera shintu, vintu vilii vyavikolamlima pasipanu, kwa vintu avi mfira kuwera wamanda kayi?
10 You observe days, months, seasons, and years.
Mwenga mwankali mwankugakola nentu mashaka na myezi na vipindi vya vinja na vinja!
11 I am afraid for you, that I might have wasted my labor for you.
Neni ntira kuusu mwenga, pamonga lihengu lyantenditi kwa mwenga lyagamira hera.
12 I beg you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong,
Walongu wangu, nuwahiga muweri gambira neni, toziya neni wera gambira mwenga. Muntendera ndiri shidoda shoseri.
13 but you know that because of weakness in the flesh I preached the Good News to you the first time.
Mwenga muvimana kuwera toziya ya ulweli wangu, neni mpatiti lupenu lwa kuwera na mwenga na kuwabwelera Shisoweru Shiwagira kwa mala ya kwanja.
14 That which was a temptation to you in my flesh, you did not despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
Tembera ulweli wangu uwatuliti mumajeru, mwenga mumbeziyiti ndiri ama kumonera shinyakali. Kumbiti mwenga munankiti gambira neni ndo ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mlungu, gambira neni ndo Kristu Yesu mweni.
15 What was the blessing you enjoyed? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.
Ntambu ya nemeleru yamuweriti nayu igenda koshi? Neni weza kupitawulira, shipindi shilii memuwezi kugakolopola masu genu na kumpanani neni.
16 So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
Hashi, neni nwera mngondu gwenu kwa kuwagambira unakaka?
17 They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.
Wantu walii yawagolokera kuwera mfati Malagaliru, walanguziya handa wankuwashera mwenga, kumbiti nfiru zyawu ziherepa ndiri. Shintu shawafira ndo kuwalekenaziya mwenga na twenga su mpati kuwera kwa womberi.
18 But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.
Iherepa kuwera na bidii ya kutenda vitwatira viherepa kila shipindi. Neni pawera na mwenga, na shipindi shilii neni pawera ndiri pamuhera na mwenga.
19 My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—
Wana wangu! Gambira utama wa kwiwura mwana, neni mpata kayi utama toziya ya mwenga mpaka pamuwera na ntambu ya Kristu mngati mwenu.
20 but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
Neni menfiri kuwera na mwenga shipindi shilaa ashi, pamonga meng'alambuli liziwu lyangu. Neni nkolwa na lyoga kuusu mwenga!
21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, do not you listen to the law?
Mung'ambiri, mwenga yamufira kukolwamlima na Malagaliru Mlungu gakamupananiti Musa, hashi mwenga muvimana ndiri yagatakula Malagaliru?
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant, and one by the free woman.
Toziya ilembwa Mumalembu Mananagala kuwera Aburahamu kaweriti na wana wawili, mwana yumu kiwukiti kwa mawu mmanda na yumonga kiwukiti kwa mawu mlekeziwa.
23 However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.
Kumbiti mwana yakayiwukiti kwa mawu mmanda, kiwukiti kwa ntambu ya mafiliru ga muntu, kumbiti mwana ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mawu mlekeziwa, kiwukiti kulawirana na lagilu lya Mlungu.
24 These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Hagar.
Vitwatira avi viweriti mfanu wa ujumbi tunga. Toziya wamawu wawili awa wawera ndo mfanu gwa malinganiru mawili. Hajiri, wana wakuwi wayiwukiti muntambu ya umanda. Agu ndo mfanu wa lipatanu lyalitendikiti kulugongu lwa Sinayi.
25 For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.
Vinu Hajiri kankulinganiziwa na lugongu lwa Sinayi lwaluwera Arabiya na luwera mfanu gwa lushi lwa vinu lwa Yerusalemu yayiwera vinu muumanda pamuhera na wana wakuwi.
26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
Kumbiti Yerusalemu yayiwera kumpindi yagambira mdala mlekeziwa na yomberi ndo mawu gwetu.
27 For it is written, “Rejoice, you barren who do not bear. Break out and shout, you who do not travail. For the desolate women have more children than her who has a husband.”
Toziya Malembu Mananagala galembwa, “Gunemeleri gwenga yaguwera mpendi, gwenga yagwiwura ndiri! Gubotangi na gutagi lusheka gwenga yagumana ndiri utama wa kwiwura mwana. Toziya wana wa ulii yakalekitwi ndo wavuwa kuliku wana wa ulii yakaweriti na mpalu.”
28 Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise.
Vinu mwenga walongu wangu muwera wana wa lagilu gambira Isaka.
29 But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.
Kumbiti handa yayiweriti mashaka galii ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mafiliru ga muntu kamtabisiyiti ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mafiliru ga Rohu wa Mlungu, ndo ntambu yayiwera ata vinu.
30 However, what does the Scripture say? “Throw out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant will not inherit with the son of the free woman.”
Kumbiti Malembu Mananagala galonga hashi? Galonga, “Gumuwingi mawu mmanda pamuhera na mwana gwakuwi, toziya mwana gwa mmanda hapeni kahali pamuhera na mwana gwa mawu mlekeziwa.”
31 So then, brothers, we are not children of a servant, but of the free woman.
Su walongu wangu, twenga twawana ndiri wa mawu mmanda kumbiti twawana wa mawu mlekeziwa.
