< Galatians 5 >
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith the Messiah hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Kristo ñani ti ti yonbdi nni, ke tin yali tibá i cain. Lan wan ii, ŋanbi ki ya kubi mani ke li paa, ki ji lebdi ki kuani yibá ti yonbdi nni.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, the Messiah shall profit you nothing.
Yin ŋanbi ki cengi min Pɔli n maadi yaala ne: I ya cedi ke bi kɔndi yi, Kristo n tieni yaala ji kan ya lbá yipo.
3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
N bua ŋanbi ki maadi yi bonyenla ki ledi: Yua cedi ke bi kɔndi o kuli, li tie mabli i li daano po, ke wan ya cɔlni yiko buali yaala kuli.
4 The Messiah is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from favour.
Yaaba n kpaani ke ban cɔlni yiko ki tua bi nimɔnba U Tienu nunga yeni, paadi leni Kristo, ki ñani U Tienu ŋalbalgo nni.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
Tinba wan dugi ke mi Foŋanma n ba cedi ti dudugdi po tin tua nimɔnba U Tienu nunga nni.
6 For in Yahushua the Messiah neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
Kelima Jesu Kristo nni, a kɔndi ii, ŋaa kɔndi ii, laa pugdi lbá. Ama ŋan ya pia ti dudugdi ki waani tini nni a buama.
7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
Yin bo tiini ke li ŋani: ŋma bo jia yi sanu, ki pani yi ke yin da cɔlni i mɔmɔni?
8 This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.
Yaala n pani yeni ki ñani yua n yini i kan kaa.
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
A dabina waama ne n yen fidi ki doni kpanu yoma.
10 I have confidence in you through YHWH, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
N pali paa yi po, ti Yonbdaano nni, ke yi maalma kan kpiadi. Ama yua n ba ŋmadi yi yama, ya tie bá yua, U Tienu ba dadi o tubli.
11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.
Ke mini ii, n kpiiba, li ya tie ke n gɔ muandi ke bi niba n kɔndi, be ya po i ke bi gɔ wang nni fala? Kristo kuuma li dapɔnpɔnli po ji kan ya ku yaalidgu!
12 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
Yaaba n cuoni leni li ŋmadli yi siiga, taani ki bua ban jia bi jatiadi kuli ki luni.
13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
N kpiiba, U Tienu yini yi ke yin yali yi bá i, li ki tie lan ya po yin ji ya ye ti gbannandi nni ka. Ama, ya tuuni man ki todi yi llieba lan waani ke i bua ba.
14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Kelima, yiko kuli taani ki ye ñɔmaayenma nni: Ya bua a lielo nani fini yeni.
15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
Ama, i ya jundi yi lieba, ki janbdi yi lieba, yin ya bani ke li caa ke yin biani yi lieba.
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
Lan wan ii, cedi man mi Foŋanma ń ya ŋmagdi yi yenyienu, yeni yi ji kan fidi ki ya tuuni yi gbannandi n niani yaala ke laa ŋani.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Kelima, o nufosaalo gbannandi n niani yaala ki tuo mi Foŋanma po. Mi Foŋanma mɔ n niani yaala ki tuo o nufosaalo gbannandi po. Lan bonliedla kɔni leni biyaba, ke yin da tuuni yi buama.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Mi Foŋanma ya ŋmagdi yi, yiko ji pia u nugu yipo.
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
O nulo gbannandi nianbiidi n kuandi o, mi conconma nni, jɔgndtuona nni, ti cagndi,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
a pada nni, li ñɔgdili, ti yibalindi, a kɔnkɔna, ki nanga, li pabienli, ku ñɔniagu, mi paadma, li ponponbiadli,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of YHWH.
li dañubiadli, ku jewuugu, leni laa bonbuoli kuli. n maadi yi nani min bo kpia ki maadi yi yeni, yua tuuni lani kan kua U Tienu Diema nni.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Ama, mi Foŋanma bonluankaala n tie, mi buama, li pamanli, mi yanduanma, li pañiili, mi todma, mi ŋanma tienma, mi tegnma, mi pasɔngma, mi yandingma;
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
U Tienu ñɔmaama ki yie laa bona.
24 And they that are the Messiah's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Yaaba n tie Jesu Kristo yaaba wan taa bi gbannandi buama leni ti nianbiidi ki kpaa li dapɔnpɔnli po i.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Mi Foŋanma ya ye leni ti, tin cedi man ya ŋmagdi ti yenyienu.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
Tin da dongi tibá fama, tin ŋaa man ku makpaangu leni ki nanga ti lieba po.
