< Galatians 2 >
1 Then after a lapse of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with [me];
Ikapiteje yaka likumi limo na nsheshe, gunyombweshe kabhili kwenda ku Yelushalemu gunongene na a Bhanabha na a Tito.
2 and I went up according to revelation, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preach among the nations, but privately to those conspicuous [among them], lest in any way I run or had run in vain;
Bhai njinkwenda kweneko pabha njinkupegwa nng'ibhulo na a Nnungu. Njinkupinjikwa kutandubha kwaabhalanjilanga ashikalongolele bha likanisha lya a Nnungu pa jika. Gunaatendilenje bhaimanyanje inalunguyaga kubhandu bha ilambo ina, nashinkutenda nneyo nkupinga liengo lyangu linatendile na lingutenda nnaino linabhe lya yoyo.
3 (but neither was Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, compelled to be circumcised; )
Na a Tito Bhagiliki bhalongene na nne bhangashishilishiwa kujaluka nkali bhaliji Bhagiliki.
4 and [it was] on account of the false brethren brought in surreptitiously, who came in surreptitiously to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage;
Ikabheje bhapalinji ashaapwetu bha kwiitembanga, bhailundilenje na uwe kwa nng'iyo, bhatumbililenje kwaataga unyago. Bhene bhandunjibho bhashinkwiijinjiyanga nkupinga kunushishiya bhamumanyanje shitukuti tama kwa ungwana tukalundaneje na a Yeshu Kilishitu, kupinga bhatubhikanje muutumwa.
5 to whom we yielded in subjection not even for an hour, that the truth of the glad tidings might remain with you.
Uwe twangapinga kulundana na bhene bhandunjibho wala kashoko, nkupinga Ngani ja Mmbone ja kweli jinkulupalilenje, jitame mmitima jenunji mobha gowe.
6 But from those who were conspicuous as being somewhat — whatsoever they were, it makes no difference to me: God does not accept man's person; for to me those who were conspicuous communicated nothing;
Bhai nkali bhebhala bhalugwilwenje kuti bhakulungwanji, nne ngwibhonela kuti bhangalinginji shindu, pabha ukumu ja a Nnungu jikalola gundu gwa palanga, kwa nneyo nne nguti nnei, bhaalumbililwangabho bhakanyenjesheya shindu.
7 but, on the contrary, seeing that the glad tidings of the uncircumcision were confided to me, even as to Peter that of the circumcision,
Ikabhe gubhamumanyinji kuti njipegwa Ngani ja Mmbone kubhandunji bhangajalukanga, malinga a Petili shibhapegwilwe Ngani ja Mmbone Kubhayaudi.
8 (for he that wrought in Peter for [the] apostleship of the circumcision wrought also in me towards the Gentiles, )
Pabha bhene bhaakombweye a Petili kwaalungushiyanga Bhayaudi, ni bhangombweye nkali nne kulunguya kubhandunji bha ilambo ina.
9 and recognising the grace given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were conspicuous as being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas [the] right hands of fellowship, that we [should go] to the nations, and they to the circumcision;
Bhai a Yakobho na a Kepa na a Yowana ashikalongolele bhakulu, bhakamumanyanjeje kuti a Nnungu bhashimba nema, gubhatupelenje nkono nne na a Bhanabha kulanguya kuti bhanakutupinjilanga liengo lya mmbone, nkupinga uwe tukalunguye kubhandunji bha ilambo ina na bhanganyabho ku Bhayaudi.
10 only that we should remember the poor, which same thing also I was diligent to do.
Ikabheje gubhatushondelesheyenje shindu shimo, kuti, tunaalibhalanje bhaalaga. Bhai shene shindusho nne nashinkutumbilila kushikamula kwa kaje.
11 But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to [the] face, because he was to be condemned:
Ikabheje a Kepa bhakaisheje ku Antiokia ja Kushilia nashinkwatauka palugwinjili pabha bhashinkuobha kaje.
12 for before that certain came from James, he ate with [those of] the nations; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those of [the] circumcision;
Pabha bhakanabhe ikangananga bhandunji bhalajilwenje na a Yakobho, a Petili bhatendaga lya na bhandunji bhalinginji ngabha Bhayaudi. Ikabheje bhakaikangananjeje, a Petili gubhaleshile kulya nabhonji nkujogopa Bhayaudi bhakoposhelenje kwa a Yakobho.
13 and the rest of the Jews also played the same dissembling part with him; so that even Barnabas was carried away too by their dissimulation.
Bhai nkali Bhayaudi bhananji bhala gubhailundilenje na a Petili, na nkali a Bhanabha na bhalabho gubhaijinjiye muugulumba gwabhonji.
14 But when I saw that they do not walk straightforwardly, according to the truth of the glad tidings, I said to Peter before all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as the nations and not as the Jews, how dost thou compel the nations to Judaize?
Nne ngabhoneje itendi yabhonji nngabha ya malinga shiikupinjikwa nkweli ya Ngani ja Mmbone, gunaabhalanjile a Kepa pa bhandu bhowe kuti, “Monaga mwe Mmayaudi nkutama mwiikubho ya bhandunji bhangajalukanga, na mbuti nngabha Nnyaudi, pakuti nnakwakwikwilishiyanga bhalinginji nngabha Bhayaudi kukagulila ikubho ya Shiyaudi?”
15 We, Jews by nature, and not sinners of [the] nations,
Uwe tuli Bhayaudi kwa bhelekwa, nngabha bhandu bha ilambo ina bhalebhilenje!
16 but knowing that a man is not justified on the principle of works of law [nor] but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also have believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified on the principle of [the] faith of Christ; and not of works of law; because on the principle of works of law no flesh shall be justified.
Akuno tulikumumanya kuti mundu akabhoneka akwete aki kwa a Nnungu, kwa itendi ya shalia ja a Musha, ikabhe kwa ligongo lya kwaakulupalila a Yeshu Kilishitu. Uwe tushikwakulupalila a Yeshu Kilishitu, nkupinga tukole aki kwa ligongo lya ngulupai ya a Kilishitu, na nngabha kwa itendi ya shalia ja a Musha, pabha kwa itendi ya shalia ja a Musha jwakwa mundu shakole aki.
17 Now if in seeking to be justified in Christ we also have been found sinners, then [is] Christ minister of sin? Far be the thought.
Monaga uwe twaashayene tunaloleya kupegwa aki kwa lundana na a Yeshu, inabhoneka tushilebha malinga bhandu bhananji bhatendanga yambi, bhuli, lyeneli linalangula kuti a Kilishitu bhashibha shiumilo sha yambi? Nng'oope!
18 For if the things I have thrown down, these I build again, I constitute myself a transgressor.
Pabha mujilaga kabhili gene gunagaengebhenye gala, bhai penepo ngunakwilanguya kuti namwene nankulebha.
19 For I, through law, have died to law, that I may live to God.
Pabha nne ibhaga kwa kagulila shalia ja a Musha, najiwilile nkupinga ndame kwa ligongo lya a Nnungu, njiwa pamo na a Kilishitu.
20 I am crucified with Christ, and no longer live, I, but Christ lives in me; but [in] that I now live in flesh, I live by faith, the [faith] of the Son of God, who has loved me and given himself for me.
Njikomelwa munshalabha pamo na a Yeshu Kilishitu, ikabheje najwankoto. Wala nngabha nne kabhili, ikabhe a Yeshu bhali mmunda jangu ni bhabhakoto na gumi gungwete nnaino guno, mumbatile nkwaakulupalila Bhanabhabho a Nnungu, bhambinjile, nikwiishoya mbepei kwa ligongo lyangu nne.
21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness [is] by law, then Christ has died for nothing.
Ngapetekuya nema ja a Nnungu, ibhaga aki jinapatikana kwa Shalia ja a Musha, bhai kuwa kwa a Yeshu Kilishitu kwa yoyo.
