Galatians 4
1 Now I say, As long as the heir is a child, he differs nothing from a bondman, though he be lord of all;
Kuligitya kina kunsoko umusali inge ng'wana, mugila ikilo nu mutugwa, anga itule ga nu mukola hiu nua nsao yihi.
2 but he is under guardians and stewards until the period fixed by the father.
Badala akwe, ukoli pihi a mugozeli nu mukuiili kupikiila itungo nai liikilwe n Tata nu akwe.
3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the principles of the world;
Ga ni iti ga nu sese, nai katulaa kiang'inya, ai kuambiiwe mu utung'wa nua malagiilyo na ng'wandyo na unkumbigulu.
4 but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, come of woman, come under law,
Kuiti itungo ni lizipie nai lipikile, Itunda ai umutumile ung'wana akwe, mutugwa nu a musungu, mutugwa pihi ilagiilyo.
5 that he might redeem those under law, that we might receive sonship.
Ai witumile izi iti kuaguna awo nai akoli pihi ilagiilyo, iti kina kusingiilya i hali akutula anga ana.
6 But because ye are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Kunsoko unyenye inge mi ana, Itunda ai umulagiiye ung'wau ng'welu nua ng'wana nu akwe mukati a nkolo yitu. Ng'wau ng'welu nuitangaa, ''Abba, Baba''.
7 So thou art no longer bondman, but son; but if son, heir also through God.
Kunsoko iyiy uewe shanga wi mutugwa hangi ila ng'wana. Anga ize inge ng'wana, uu gwa uewe inge wi musali kkiila Itunda.
8 But then indeed, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods;
Ze ikili ga, itungo shanga ai mumulingile Itunda, ai mutuile mi atungwa ku awo niiza ku upuumoo shanga alungu nangaluu.
9 but now, knowing God, but rather being known by God, how do ye turn again to the weak and beggarly principles to which ye desire to be again anew in bondage?
Ku iti ingili kina mumulingile Itunda, ang'wi kina mulingikile ni Itunda, kuniki mukusuka hangi mumalaagiilyo ni manementaalu ni ng'wandyo ni magila anga kinya uwai? Iti muloilwe kutula atung'wa hangi?
10 Ye observe days and months and times and years.
Muambile ku ukendegeeli lihiku ni menso lukulu, upumili nua mieli, matungo, ni miaka. Nikenda itumba kunsoko anyu.
11 I am afraid of you, lest indeed I have laboured in vain as to you.
Nikenda itumba kina ku kinya kituunga ni agilye nankanda.
12 Be as I [am], for I also [am] as ye, brethren, I beseech you: ye have not at all wronged me.
Kumupepeelya, aluna, mutule anga ni nili, kunsoko ga natuilee anga ni mili. Shanga ai muntumuie.
13 But ye know that in weakness of the flesh I announced the glad tidings to you at the first;
Ila mulingile kina, ai itulikile inge kunsoko a ulwae nua muili kina ai ntanantilye nkani ninza kitalanyu ku nkua a ng'wandyo.
14 and my temptation, which [was] in my flesh, ye did not slight nor reject with contempt; but ye received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.
Ga ni iti i hali ane a muili ai imukile mu ugeng'wa, Shanga ai mumeile ng'wi kuni hita. Badala akwe ai munsingiiye anga u malaika nunang'wi Itunda, anga ai matulaa Kristo Yesu mukola.
15 What then [was] your blessedness? for I bear you witness that, if possible, plucking out your own eyes ye would have given [them] to me.
Ku lulo, ukoli pii itungili uulowa nu anyu? Kunsoko kukiila kitalanyu kina, anga ihumikile, ai muzee komola imiho anyu nu kumpa unene.
16 So I have become your enemy in speaking the truth to you?
Iti itungili, itii natulaa ni mulugu wanyu kunsoko kumuila itai?
17 They are not rightly zealous after you, but desire to shut you out [from us], that ye may be zealous after them.
Akuduma ku nsula, inge shanga ku ukende, aloilwe kumutemanula unyenye nu nene iti muatyate.
18 But [it is] right to be zealous at all times in what is right, and not only when I am present with you —
Inge iziza ikali kutula ni nsula kunsoko ni yili nziza, hangi shanga udu matungo ni nize nkoli palung'wi nu nyenye.
19 my children, of whom I again travail in birth until Christ shall have been formed in you:
Ana ane aniino, kulwala uwai kunsoko anyu hangi kupikiila Kristo wiumbe mukati anyu.
20 and I should wish to be present with you now, and change my voice, for I am perplexed as to you.
Aza nzee lowa aza ize nkoli pang'wanso palung'wi nu nyenye itungili nu kupiula ululi nu lane. Kunsoko nkete witumbi migulya anyu.
21 Tell me, ye who are desirous of being under law, do ye not listen to the law?
Ntambuili unyenye naza mukete isula kutula pihi ilagiilyo, shanga migulye ilagiilyo nili ligitilye?
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons; one of the maid servant, and one of the free woman.
Kunsoko ikilisigwe kina Abrahamu ai ukete ana akigoha abiili, ung'wi ku musungu uyo nu mutugwaa nu muya nu musungu ni mulyuuku.
23 But he [that was] of the maid servant was born according to flesh, and he [that was] of the free woman through the promise.
Ga ni iti, uyo nua mutugwa ai utugilwe ku muili udu, ila uyo nua musungu nu mulyuuku ku wigombya.
24 Which things have an allegorical sense; for these are two covenants: one from mount Sinai, gendering to bondage, which is Hagar.
Makani aya ahumile kuganulwa kutumila mpyani, kunsoko asungu awa impyani ni malago abiili, Ung'wi ao kupuma kulugulu nula Sinai. Witugaa ana ni atugwa. Uyu inge Hajiri.
25 For Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which [is] now, for she is in bondage with her children;
Itungili u Hajiri inge lugulu nu la Sinai ukoli ku Arabuni. Wimpuanigwa ni Yerusalemu ni itungili, kunsoko inge mutugwa palung'wi ni ana akwe.
26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is our mother.
Ila Yerusalemu niiza ikoli migulya inge ndyuuku, hangi iyi yiyo nyinya nu itu.
27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break out and cry, thou that travailest not; because the children of the desolate are more numerous than [those] of her that has a husband.
Kunsoko ikilisigwe, ''Lowa uewe musungu nuili wimugumba, uewe ni shanga witugaa. Nyansula ululi hangi ukue iyogo ku ulowa uewe niiza wimugila u wizeeli nua kutuga kundogoelyo idu inge ana ang'wa nu aileemugumba, kukulinkiila ni awo ni ang'wa uyo niiza ukete mugoha''.
28 But ye, brethren, after the pattern of Isaac, are children of promise.
Itungili aluna, anga u Isaka, unyenye inge ana a wigombya.
29 But as then he that was born according to flesh persecuted him [that was born] according to Spirit, so also [it is] now.
Ku itungo nilanso naza u muntu naiza ai atugilwe ku ngulu nia muili ai umagilye uyo nai utugilwe ku ngulu nia ng'wau ng'welu, ku itungili inge lulo luuloo.
30 But what says the scripture? Cast out the maid servant and her son; for the son of the maid servant shall not inherit with the son of the free woman.
Ukilisigwa wiligitya uli, ''Muheje umusungu mutugwa palung'wi nu ng'wana nu akwe nua kigoha, kunsoko ung'wana nu a musungu nu mutugwa shanga ukusala palung'wi nu ng'wana nua musungu nu mulyuuku''.
31 So then, brethren, we are not maid servant's children, but [children] of the free woman.
Ku lulo, aluna, Usese shanga ana nua musungu nu mutugwa, ila inge nua musungu nu mulyuuku.
