Galatians 4
1 NOW I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
Gima awachonu ema: Ka jacham girkeni pod en nyathi, to oonge pogruok gi misumba, kata obedo ni mwandu duto mar wuon dala osedongʼne.
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
Ka pod otin, to chune ni nyaka otim gik ma joritne gi jorit mwandu wuon dwaro mondo otim, korito kinde mane wuon-gi ochano mondo jotijego oket mwandu duto e lwete.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
Kamano bende kane pod wan nyithindo, ne oketwa wasumbini mag timbe machon mag piny.
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
To ka kinde mane Nyasaye ochano nochopo, to nooronwa Wuode mane dhako onywolo, kendo mane onywol e bwo Chik,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
mondo ores joma Chik otweyo, eka mondo wadok nyithind Nyasaye machamo mwandune.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
To nikech un nyithind Nyasaye, Nyasaye oseoro bende Roho mar Wuode e chunywa. Roho maywakne Nyasaye niya, “Abba! Wuora.”
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Omiyo koro ok un wasumbini, to un nyithind ot, to nikech un nyithind ot, Nyasaye osemiyo wadoko jocham girkeni.
8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
Chon kane pod ukia Nyasaye, ne un wasumbini mag gik ma ok onego kwan kaka nyiseche.
9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
To ka koro usengʼeyo Nyasaye, kata kawacho e yo machielo maber moloyo ka koro Nyasaye osengʼeyou, to ere kaka uchako udok e timbe machon mag piny, mayom yom kendo maonge teko? Udwaro ni timbegi ochak oketu wasumbini kendo?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
Uketo chunyu mar rito odiechienge moyiedhi, kod dweche gi ndalo kod higni!
11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
Ulitna ahinya, kendo timbeu miyo aparo ni dipo nine ayalonu Injili kayiem nono.
12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
Jowetena, akwayou ni mondo uchal koda, mana kaka an asebedo machal kodu. Pok uchwanya e yo moro amora.
13 Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
Ungʼeyo ni e limbena mokwongo tuo mane atuogo ema nomiyo ayudo thuolo mar yalonu Injili.
14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
To kata obedo ni ne atuo kamano, to ne ok uchaya, kendo ne ok ujara. Kar timo kamano, to ne urwaka gi luor mana ka gima ne urwako malaika mar Nyasaye; chutho ne urwaka mana ka gima ne an Kristo Yesu owuon.
15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
To tinde ere mor mane un-go mokwongo? Anyalo wacho ni kane alimou mokwongo, to ne urwaka gi mor maduongʼ ma kata mana wengeu ne unyalo miya.
16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
Dipo ni asedoko jasiku nikech awachonu adiera?
17 They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
Jogo to ero temo ywayou korgi, to ngʼeuru ni gitimo kamano mana mar kethou. Gima gitemo timo en mana mondo gipogu kodwa, mondo gin ema umigi duongʼ moloyo wan.
18 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
To onge wach, chiwruok gi mor ber abera, makmana ni nyaka utim kamano kuom timo gima ber. To dine ber moloyo kutimo kamano kinde duto, kata antie kata aonge.
19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
Nyithinda mahero, awinjo rem mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo, ka agombo mondo Kristo onywol eiu.
20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
To dobedo maber ka an kodu sani mondo awuo kodu wangʼ gi wangʼ eka uwinj dwonda maber, nimar chunya chandore ahinya nikech un.
21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
Nyisaneuru un joma dwaro bedo e bwo chik, donge ungʼeyo gima chik wacho?
22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
Ungʼeyo ni nondiki ni Ibrahim ne nigi yawuowi ariyo, ma achiel kuomgi nonywol gi dhako ma misumba, to machielo to nonywol gi dhako ma thuolo.
23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
Wuod dhako ma misumbano nonywol kuom dwaro mar dhano, to wuod dhako ma thuolo nonywol kuom singruok.
24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
Tiend wechegi opondo, nikech mon ariyogi ochungʼ kar singruok ariyo. Singruok achiel oa Got Sinai, kendo onywolo nyithindo monego obed wasumbini: Ma en Hagar.
25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
Hagar ochungʼ kar Got Sinai mantie e piny jo-Arabu, kendo godno chalo gi dala maduongʼ mar Jerusalem nikech osiko e tich misumba gi nyithinde nyaka kawuono.
26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
To Jerusalem moger malo ni thuolo kendo en e minwa,
27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.
mana kaka ondiki ni: “Bed mamor, in dhako ma migumba, in ma ok inywol nyithindo; tingʼ dwondi malo ka igoyo koko gi ilo, in mane muoch ok okayi; nimar dhako ma migumba nobed gi nyithindo mangʼeny, moloyo dhako man-gi dichwo.”
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
Kuom mano un owetena, un koro un nyithind singruok mana kaka Isaka.
29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
To mana kaka e kindeno wuowi mane onywol kuom dwaro mar dhano nosando wuowi mane onywol gi teko mar Roho Maler, e kaka timore bende e kindeni.
30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
Muma to wacho angʼo kuom wachni? Owacho niya, “Riemb dhako ma misumbani kod wuode nimar wuod dhako ma misumbani ok nobed jacham girkeni kaachiel gi wuod dhako ma ni thuoloni.”
31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
Kuom mano owetena, ok wan nyithind dhako ma misumba, to wan koth dhako man thuolo.
