Galatians 1
1 PAUL, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead; )
Pauro mupostori, asina kutumwa zvichibva kuvanhu kana kumunhu, asi naJesu Kristu naMwari Baba, iye akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa,
2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
nehama dzose dzineni, kukereke dziri muGaratia:
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
Nyasha norugare ngazvive nemi zvichibva kuna Mwari Baba vedu nokuna Ishe Jesu Kristu,
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: (aiōn g165)
akazvipa nokuda kwezvivi zvedu kuti atisunungure kubva munyika yakaipa yazvino, maererano nokuda kwaMwari Baba vedu, (aiōn g165)
ngaave nokubwinya nokusingaperi. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Ndinoshamiswa kuti munokurumidza kusiya uyo akakudanai nenyasha dzaKristu muchitsaukira kune rimwe vhangeri,
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
risati riri vhangeri chairo kana napaduku. Zviri pachena kuti vamwe vanhu vanoda kukukanganisai vachiedza kushandura vhangeri raKristu.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Asi kunyange isu kana mutumwa anobva kudenga akaparidza vhangeri risati riri ratakakuparidzirai, ngaatukwe nokusingaperi!
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Sezvatakamboreva, tinodarozve zvino tichiti: Kana kuno munhu upi zvake ari kuparidza kwamuri vhangeri kunze kweramakagamuchira, ngaave akatukwa nokusingaperi!
10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Ko, ndiri kuedza kuzviratidza kuvanhu here kana kuti kuna Mwari? Kana kuti ndiri kuedza kufadza vanhu here? Dai ndakanga ndichiri kuedza kufadza vanhu, ndingadai ndisiri muranda waKristu.
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Ndinoda kuti muzive, hama, kuti vhangeri randakaparidza harisi chimwe chinhu chakangomuka mumunhu.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Handina kurigamuchira kubva kumunhu upi zvake uye handina kuridzidziswa, asi ndakarigamuchira nokuzarurirwa kunobva kuna Jesu Kristu.
13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
Nokuti makanzwa zvamararamiro angu akare muchiJudha, kuti ndakatambudza zvikuru sei kereke yaMwari uye ndikaedza kuiparadza.
14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Ndakanga ndichishingaira kwazvo muchiJudha ndichipfuura vaJudha vazhinji vezera rangu uye ndakanga ndichishingairira tsika dzamadzibaba angu.
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
Asi Mwari akanditsaura kubva pakuzvarwa kwangu uye akandidana nenyasha dzake, paakafadzwa nazvo
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
kuti aratidze Mwanakomana wake mandiri kuti ndimuparidze pakati pavaHedheni, handina kutongobvunza munhu,
17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
uye handina kuenda kuJerusarema kuti ndinoona vaya vakanga vari vapostori vakanditangira, asi nokukurumidza ndakaenda kuArabhia ndikazodzokazve kuDhamasiko pashure.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
Ipapo shure kwamakore matatu, ndakakwira kuJerusarema kuti ndinozivana naPetro uye ndikandogara naye kwamazuva gumi namashanu.
19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s brother.
Handina kuona vamwe vavapostori, kunze kwaJakobho mununʼuna waShe.
20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
Ndinotaura chokwadi pamberi paMwari kuti zvandinokunyorerai izvi hadzisi nhema.
21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
Pashure ndakaenda kuSiria nokuSirisia.
22 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judæa which were in Christ:
Ndakanga ndisingazivikanwi pachiso kukereke dzeJudhea dziri muna Kristu.
23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
Vakangonzwa zvakaziviswa bedzi zvokuti, “Munhu uya aititambudza kare ava kuparidza zvino kutenda kuya kwaakanga achiedza kuparadza.”
24 And they glorified God in me.
Uye vakarumbidza Mwari nokuda kwangu.
