Galatians 3
1 O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
Maw Galati mi mawmaw te, thinglamte tung a ki khai Jesus Christ sia note mai ah a kilangtak in hong kilak zo a, thuman zui ngawl tu in akua in hong bum ziam?
2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
Note in thukham na zui na uh tungtawn in Thaa na sang uh ziam, a hibale nazak uh thu na upna uh tungtawn in a hi ziam? hi thu bek note tung pan ka he nuam hi.
3 Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
Mawmaw lalawm nu ziam? Thaa taw na kipan zo uh a, tu in note in cilesa taw tawpsak tu nu ziam?
4 Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
Hi thu tu dong in a luithathong in a om lai le, na tampi sia a luithathong in thuak na hi uh ziam?
5 Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
Tua ahikom note tung ah na a seam Thaa in note sung ah nalamdang te a vawtna sia thukham zui na tungtawn a hi ziam, a hibale na zak uh thu upna tungtawn ziam?
6 So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
Abraham in Pathian um a, tua a upna sia thutang suana in ceptesak hi.
7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
Tua ahikom upna a nei peuma sia Abraham tate a hihi, ci sia note in he ta tun.
8 The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
Laithiangtho in, upna tungtawn in Gentile mite sia Pathian in thutang suaksak tu hi, ci a lak khol hu in, nangma tungtawn in minam theampo in thupha sang tu hi, ci in Abraham tung ah lungdamna thupha son zo hi, ci hi.
9 So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
Tua ahikom upna a nei peuma sia a muantak Abraham taw thupha sang hi.
10 All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
Banghangziam cile thukham zuina a suang theampo sia hamsiatna nuai ah om hi: banghangziam cile, thukham laibu sung ah a ki at theampo a ban a ban in a zui suak ngawl peuma hamsiatna thuak hi, ci in ki at hi.
11 Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
Ahihang Pathian mai ah kuama thukham tungtawn in thutang suasak na nga ngawl hi, ci thu thiangtak in kilang hi: banghangziam cile a thutang mihing sia upna tungtawn in nungta tu hi.
12 The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
Taciang thukham sia upna taw kisai ngawl hi: ahihang, thukham a zui peuma thukham sung ah nungta tu hi.
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
Christ sia eite atu in hamsiatna thuak a, thukham hamsiatna sung pan in hong tan zo hi: banghangziam cile thing tung ah a ki khai peuma hamsiatna thuak a hihi, ci in ki at hi:
14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
Taciang Jesus Christ tungtawn in Abraham thupha sia Gentile mite tung ah a thet thei natu le, eite in upna tungtawn in Thaa kamciam i nga thei natu a hihi.
15 Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
Suapui te awng, mihing ngeina bang in kong son hi; mihing kamciam ahihang, a kipsak sa ahile, kuama in vawkthong ngawl hi, zong belap thua ngawl hi.
16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
Tu in Abraham le a suanlepal te tung ah kamciam te vawt hi, Mi tampi bang in, suanlepal te, ci ngawl hi; ahihang khat bang in, na suan, ci hi, tua thu sia Christ a hihi.
17 What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
Hi thu kong son hi, Pathian in Christ sung ah a kipsak kamciam sia kum zali le sawm thum zawkciang zong thukham in vawk thei ngawl hi, tabang in kamciam sia a mannung ngawl suaksak thei ngawl hi.
18 For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
Banghangziam cile ngamh sia thukham taw kisai ahile, kamciam taw kisai hong suak hi: ahihang hi ngamh sia Pathian in Abraham tung ah kamciam tungtawn in a piak a hihi.
19 Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
Tabang ahile banghang in thukham pia ziam? Hi thu sia kamciam a piak Abraham i suan a thet mateng thukham paltan te hu in a ki belap a hihi; taciang hi thu sia palai seam pa i khutsung ah vantungmi te i a piak nasep a hihi.
20 A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
Tu in palai sia mihing khat atu hi ngawl hi, ahihang Pathian sia khat a hihi.
21 Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
Tabang ahile thukham in Pathian kamciam te langpan a hi ziam? Langpan ngawl hi: banghangziam cile nuntakna a pia thei thukham om hile, thutang suana sia thukham tungtawn vateak in hongpai tu hi.
22 But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
Ahihang a um peuma sia Jesus Christ upna tungtawn in kamciam piak tu in laithiangtho in mi theampo sia mawna nuai ah khum siat hi.
23 Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
Ahihang upna hong thet mateng, hong ki lang pheang tu upna sung ah hong khum a thukham nuai ah hong keam a hihi.
24 So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Tua ahikom in upna tungtawn in thutang suana i nga thei natu in, Christ kung ah hong paipui tu in eite hong keamcing sia thukham a hihi.
25 Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
Ahihang tua upna a thet zawkciang in, eite hong keamcing sia i nuai ah i om nawn bua hi.
26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
Banghangziam cile note theampo sia Christ Jesus upna tungtawn in Pathian tate na hi uh hi.
27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
Banghangziam cile Christ sung ah tuiphumna a sang peuma in Christ sil zo na hi uh hi.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Judah le Greek ci om ngawl, sal le a suakta ci zong om ngawl hi, numei le pa ci zong om ngawl hi: banghangziam cile note theampo Christ Jesus sung ah khat na hi uh hi.
29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
Taciang Christ i neisa na hi uh le, Abraham i suanlepal na hi uh hi, taciang kamciam bang in ngamh lua te na hi uh hi.
