Galatians 6
1 Brethren, if even a man be taken in some fault, ye who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering thyself lest thou also be tempted.
Bazalwane, nxa umuntu ethunjwe yisono esithile lina eliphila ngokoMoya kumele limbuyise kakuhle. Kodwa lizinanzelele ukuthi lani futhi lingalingwa.
2 Bear one another's burdens, and thus fulfil the law of the Christ.
Thwalani imithwalo yomunye lomunye, ngalokho lizagcwalisa umthetho kaKhristu.
3 For if any man reputes himself to be something, being nothing, he deceives himself;
Nxa umuntu ezitshaya ulutho yena engasilutho, uyazikhohlisa.
4 but let each prove his own work, and then he will have his boast in what belongs to himself alone, and not in what belongs to another.
Umuntu munye ngamunye kahlole izenzo zakhe. Ngalokho angaziqhenya, kungekho ukuziqathanisa lomunye,
5 For each shall bear his own burden.
ngoba lowo lalowo kumele athwale umthwalo wakhe.
6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things.
Loba ngubani othola ukufundiswa ngelizwi umele abelane zonke izinto ezinhle lalowo omfundisayo.
7 Be not deceived: God is not mocked; for whatever a man shall sow, that also shall he reap.
Lingakhohliswa: UNkulunkulu kahlekwa. Umuntu uvuna lokho akuhlanyelayo.
8 For he that sows to his own flesh, shall reap corruption from the flesh; but he that sows to the Spirit, from the Spirit shall reap eternal life: (aiōnios g166)
Lowo ohlanyela ukuthokozisa inyama yakhe, kuleyonyama uzavuna ukuchitheka; lowo ohlanyela ukuthokozisa uMoya, kuMoya uzavuna ukuphila okulaphakade. (aiōnios g166)
9 but let us not lose heart in doing good; for in due time, if we do not faint, we shall reap.
Kasingadinwa yikwenza okuhle ngoba ngesikhathi esifaneleyo sizavuna isivuno nxa singadeli.
10 So then, as we have occasion, let us do good towards all, and specially towards those of the household of faith.
Ngakho-ke, njengokuba silethuba kasenzeni okulungileyo ebantwini bonke ikakhulu kulabo abangabemuli yabakholwayo.
11 See how long a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
Khangelani ukuthi makhulu kanganani amabala engiwasebenzisayo lapho ngililobela ngesami isandla!
12 As many as desire to have a fair appearance in [the] flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted because of the cross of Christ.
Labo abafuna ukubukwa enyameni bazama ukulincindezela ukuba lisoke. Isizatho sokuba benze lokhu yikuba babalekele ukuhlukuluzelwa isiphambano sikaKhristu kuphela.
13 For neither do they that are circumcised themselves keep the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.
Lalabo abasokileyo kabawulaleli umthetho kodwa bafuna ukuba lisoke ukuze bazincome ngemizimba yenu.
14 But far be it from me to boast save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom [the] world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
Mina kangingazincomi lanini ngaphandle kwangesiphambano seNkosi yethu uJesu Khristu, umhlaba wonke owabethelwa ngaso kimi, lami njalo emhlabeni.
15 For [in Christ Jesus] neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision; but new creation.
Ukusoka loba ukungasoki akutsho lutho; okuqakathekileyo yikudalwa kutsha.
16 And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
Ukuthula lesihawu kubo bonke abalandela umthetho lo, kanye laku-Israyeli kaNkulunkulu.
17 For the rest let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.
Okokucina, akungabi lamuntu ongibangela uhlupho, ngoba emzimbeni wami ngilempawu zikaJesu.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
Umusa weNkosi yethu uJesu Khristu kawube lomoya wenu bazalwane. Ameni.
