< Galatians 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle, (not from men, nor by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead, )
Kai Pawl hoi kai koe kaawm e hmaunawngha abuemlah ni, Galati ram kaawm e kawhmounnaw ca na patawn awh.
2 and all the brethren that are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
Kai teh guncei lah ka o nahanlah tami ni na patoun e hoi tha e hai nahoeh. Jisuh Khrih duenae koehoi kathawsakkung Cathut ni na kaw e lah doeh ka o.
3 grace be to you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
Maimae Pa Cathut hoi Bawipa Jisuh Khrih koe e lungmanae hoi roumnae teh nangmouh koe awm lawiseh.
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
Atu e se kathout thung hoi maimouh teh hlout sak hanelah maimae Cathut hoi na Pa ni a ngai e patetlah ama teh maimae yon kecu a kâhmoun. (aiōn g165)
5 to whom be glory from age to age. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Cathut teh pout laipalah a yungyoe bawilennae awm lawiseh! Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 I am astonished that you are so soon turning away from him that called you into the grace of Christ, to another gospel:
Nangmouh teh, Khrih e lungmanae dawk hoi na kakawkung Bawipa e kamthang kahawi hloilah, alouke kamthang lawk koe tang na kamlang awh dawkvah ka ka ngai lah a ru.
7 which is nothing else than that there are some who trouble you, and are determined to pervert the gospel of the Christ.
Hote kamthang lawk teh kamthang kahawi nahoeh. Nangmanaw tarawk hane hoi Khrih e kamthang kahawi hah bungling hanelah a ngai a dawk doeh.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach to you any other gospel than that which we have preached, let him be accursed.
Hatei, kaimouh thung dawk hoi nakunghai, kalvan hoi ka tho e kalvantami nakunghai, kaimouh ni ka dei awh e kamthang kahawi patetlah ka dei hoeh e teh thoebo e lah awmseh.
9 As we said before, so even now I say again, if any one preaches to you any other gospel than that which you have received, let him be accursed.
Ahmaloe, kaimouh ni ka dei awh tangcoung e patetlah atu hai bout ka dei e teh, apipatet ni hai nangmouh ni na dâw tangcoung e kamthang kahawi hoi kâvan laipalah, ka pâpho e tami teh thoebo lah awmseh.
10 For, do I now seek the favor of men, or of God? or do I strive to please men? If, indeed, I would still please men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, atuvah kai heh tami e minhmai kahawi hmu hanelah ka kâyawm e na ou. Cathut koe e minhmai kahawi hmu hanelah kâyawm e na ou. Nahoeh pawiteh, tami ngainae dawk kâyawm e na ou. Tami ngainae lahoi kâyawm pawiteh Khrih san lah kaawm e nahoeh.
11 But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which is preached by me, is not according to man:
Hmaunawnghanaw kai ni ka dei e kamthang kahawi heh tami koe lahoi ka coe e nahoeh tie teh koung na panue thai nahan na ngaikhai awh.
12 for neither did I receive it from man, nor was it taught me, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, hot hateh tami koehoi kai ni ka coe e nahoeh. Cangnae dawk hai nahoeh. Jisuh Khrih e a kâpâphonae dawk hoi kai ni ka coe e doeh.
13 For you have heard of my former mode of life in Judaism, that I greatly persecuted the church of God, and laid it waste;
Judah phunglah kahring navah Cathut e kawhmoun hah ka rektap teh raphoe hanelah ka kâyawm.
14 and I surpassed in Judaism many of my own age and nation, being more exceedingly zealous for the tradition of my fathers.
Mintoenaw e cangkhainae dawk ka lung atang teh, ka huikonaw hlak Judah phung hoe ka tarawi e hah na panue awh.
15 But when God, who chose me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace, was pleased
Hatei anu vawn thung ka o na patenghai yah, Capa e kamthang kahawi pâpho hanelah, amae lungmanae lahoi kai hah na ka rawi niteh, na kakaw e Cathut niyah,
16 to reveal his Sou in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I at once declined all conference with flesh and blood:
hote Capa hah kai koe pâpho hanelah a ngainae ao navah, Capa e kong Jentelnaw koe pâpho hanlah, kai teh ka takthai hoi ka kapan hoeh.
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem, to those who were apostles before me; but I went away into Arabia, and then returned to Damascus.
Ahmaloe e gunceinaw aonae koe Jerusalem hai ka cet laipalah, Arabia ram lah hmatara ka cei teh Damaskas kho bout ka ban.
18 Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem, in order to become personally acquainted with Peter; and I remained with him fifteen days:
Hahoi kum thum touh a kuep hnukkhu Cephas (Cephas teh Piter tinae) hoi kâhmo hanlah ka ngai dawkvah, Jerusalem lah ka cei teh ahni koe hnin hlaipanga touh ka o.
19 but of the apostles I saw no other, but James the brother of the Lord.
Ahni hoi Bawipa Jisuh e a nawngha Jem laipalah alouke guncei buet touh hai ka hmawt hoeh.
20 With respect to the things which I now write to you, behold, before God I lie not.
Ka thut e heh laithoe awmhoeh, atangcalah ao e heh Cathut ni a panue.
21 Then, I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia:
Hathnukkhu vah, Siria ram hoi Cilicia ram lah vah ka cei.
22 but I was not known, in person, to the churches of Judea which are in Christ.
Khrih thung kaawm ni teh Judah ram e kawhmounnaw ni kai na panuek awh hoeh rah.
23 They had heard only that he who formerly persecuted us was now preaching the faith which he once destroyed.
Ahmaloe vah, maimouh na ka rektap e tami ni raphoe hanlah ouk a kâyawm e yuemnae hah atu teh a kampangkhai toe tie dueng hah thai lah ao toung dawkvah,
24 And they glorified God in me.
ahnimouh ni kai kecu dawk Cathut bawilennae teh a pholen awh.
