Galatians 3
1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
Haiwa VaGaratia matununu, ndiani wakakuroyai kuti murege kuteerera chokwadi, imwi makaratidzwa Jesu Kristu pachena pamberi pemeso, akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa pakati penyu?
2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Ndichochi chete chandinoda kudzidza kwamuri chekuti: Makagamuchira Mweya nemabasa emurairo here, kana nekunzwa kwerutendo?
3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
Ko muri matununu akadai? Makatanga muMweya, zvino mopedzisa munyama here?
4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if [it be] yet in vain.
Makatambudzika zvikuru zvakadai pasina here? Zvakadaro pasinawo!
5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Naizvozvo iye anokupai Mweya neanoita mabasa esimba pakati penyu, anozviita nemabasa emurairo here, kana nekunzwa kwerutendo?
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Abhurahama sezvaakatenda Mwari, zvikaverengwawo kwaari kuti kururama.
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
Naizvozvo munoziva kuti avo verutendo, ndivo vana vaAbhurahama.
8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, [saying], In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Nerugwaro, rwaona zviri mberi kuti Mwari anoti vahedheni vakarurama kubudikidza nerutendo, rwakagara rwaparidza evhangeri kuna Abhurahama, ruchiti: Mauri marudzi ese acharopafadzwa.
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
Naizvozvo verutendo vanoropafadzwa pamwe naAbhurahama wakatenda.
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
Nokuti vese vemabasa emurairo vari pasi pekutukwa; nokuti kwakanyorwa, kuchinzi: Wakatukwa wese asingarambiri pazvese zvakanyorwa mubuku yemurairo kuti azviite.
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, [it is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
Asi zviri pachena kuti hakuna munhu anonzi wakarurama nemurairo pamberi paMwari, nokuti kunonzi: Wakarurama achararama nerutendo.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
Zvino murairo haubvi parutendo, asi zvinonzi: Munhu anoita zvinhu izvi achararama mazviri.
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that hangeth on a tree:
Kristu wakatidzikunura pachakatukwa chemurairo, aitirwa chakatukwa isu, nokuti kwakanyorwa, kuchinzi: Wakatukwa wese wakaremberera pamuti;
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
kuti ropafadzo yaAbhurahama isvike kuvahedheni muna Kristu Jesu, kuti tigamuchire nerutendo chivimbiso cheMweya.
15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though [it be] but a man’s covenant, yet [if it be] confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
Hama, ndinotaura nemutoo wevanhu; kunyange sungano yevanhu yasimbiswa, hakuna munhu anoikonesa kana kuwedzera kwairi.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Zvino zvivimbiso zvakataurwa kuna Abhurahama nekumbeu yake. Haarevi achiti: Nekumbeu dzako, sevanenge vazhinji, asi saanenge ari mumwe, anoti: Nekumbeu yako; inova Kristu.
17 And this I say, [that] the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
Ndinoreva ichiwo: Sungano yakagara yasimbiswa naMwari muna Kristu, murairo ukazouya makore mazana mana nemakumi matatu apfuura haungaishaisi maturo, kuti uite chivimbiso chive chisina maturo.
18 For if the inheritance [be] of the law, [it is] no more of promise: but God gave [it] to Abraham by promise.
Nokuti kana nhaka ichibva kumurairo, haichabvi kuchivimbiso; asi Mwari wakapa pachena Abhurahama nechivimbiso.
19 Wherefore then [serveth] the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; [and it was] ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
Ko murairo chii? Wakawedzerwa nekuda kwekudarika, kusvikira mbeu yasvika yakaitirwa chivimbiso; wakagadzwa nevatumwa muruoko rwemurevereri.
20 Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God is one.
Asi murevereri haasi weumwe, asi Mwari ndeumwe.
21 [Is] the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
Ko murairo unopesana nezvivimbiso zvaMwari here? Ngazvisadaro! Nokuti dai pakange pane murairo wakapiwa unogona kuraramisa, zvirokwazvo kururama kungadai kuchibva kumurairo.
22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
Asi rugwaro rwakapfigira zvese pasi pechivi, kuti chivimbiso chinobva parutendo rwaJesu Kristu chipiwe kune vanotenda.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Asi kusati kwasvika rutendo, taichengetwa pasi pemurairo, takapfigirwa kusvikira kurutendo rwaizozarurwa shure.
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Saizvozvo murairo wakange uri murairidzi wedu kuna Kristu, kuti tinzi takarurama nerutendo.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
Asi rutendo rwakati rwasvika, hatisisiri pasi pemurairidzi.
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Nokuti mese muri vana vaMwari nerutendo muna Kristu Jesu.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Nokuti mese makabhabhatidzwa muna Kristu, makapfeka Kristu.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Hakuna muJudha kana muGiriki, hakuna wakasungwa kana wakasununguka, hakuna munhurume nemunhukadzi; nokuti imwi mese muri vamwe muna Kristu Jesu.
29 And if ye [be] Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Zvino kana imwi muri vanhu vaKristu, saka muri mbeu yaAbhurahama, uye vadyi venhaka maererano nechivimbiso.
