Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him out of the dead—
Hlang lamkah pawt tih, hlang rhangnen pawt tih, Jesuh Khrih neh duek lamkah anih aka thoh a pa Pathen rhangneh caeltueih Paul neh,
2 and all the brothers with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
ka taengkah manuca boeih loh Galati hlangboel rhoek taengah kan yaak sak.
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
Mamih a pa Pathen neh Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah lungvatnah neh ngaimongnah nangmih taengah om saeh.
4 who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us out of the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
Mamih kah tholhnah kongah amah aka hnawn uh te. Te daengah ni ta kumhal kah aka pai boethae khui lamloh a pa neh Pathen kah kongaih bangla mamih n'hlawt eh. (aiōn g165)
Thangpomnah tah a taengah kumhal kah kumhal ah om pai saeh. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 I wonder that you are so quickly removed from Him who called you in the grace of Christ to another good news—
Khrih kah lungvatnah dongah nangmih aka khue taeng lamloh a tloe olthangthen la ki na buung uh te ka ngaihmang van.
7 not that there is another, except there are certain who are troubling you, and wishing to pervert the good news of the Christ;
Te te a tloe la a om moenih. Te pawt akhaw nangmih aka hinghuen tih Khrih kah olthangthen palet ham aka ngaih te hlangvang na om uh.
8 but even if we or a messenger out of Heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we proclaimed to you—let him be accursed!
Tedae kaimih neh vaan lamkah puencawn long pataeng nangmih taengah ka phong uh te nangmih ham voelh a phong atah kosi yook saeh.
9 As we have said before, and now say again: if anyone may proclaim to you good news different from what you received—let him be accursed!
Thui tangtae vanbangla tahae akhaw koep ka thui. Pakhat mai loh na doe uh tangtae te nangmih taengah voelh a phong atah kosi yook saeh.
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 Christ’s servant.
Hlang nim, Pathen nim ka ngaitang coeng he. Hlang kolo nim ka toem. Hlang taengkah kolo ka toem pueng atah Khrih kah sal la ka om eh ka ti moenih.
11 And I make known to you, brothers, the good news that was proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man,
Te dongah manuca rhoek nangmih taengah ka phoe coeng. Kai loh ka phong olthangthen he hlang dongah a kungsut moenih.
12 for neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught [it], but through a revelation of Jesus Christ,
Kai tah hlang lamloh ka doe pawt tih n'thuituen bal moenih. Tedae Jesuh Khrih kah pumphoenah rhangnen ni.
13 for you heard of my behavior once in Judaism, that I was exceedingly persecuting the Assembly of God, and destroying it,
Hnukbuet kah Judah sing neh ka omih te na yaak uh coeng. A puehkan aih la Pathen kah hlangboel te ka hnaemtaek tih ka thup.
14 and I was advancing in Judaism above many equals in age in my own race, being more abundantly zealous of my fathers’ deliverances,
Judah sing dongah ka namtu lakli kah thawnpuei rhoek lakah ka lamhma. Kamah patuel rhoek kah singyoe aka om dongah khaw muep ka hmae.
15 and when God was well pleased—having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called [me] through His grace—
Tedae a nu bung lamloh kai aka hoep tih a lungvatnah neh aka khue Pathen loh, a capa te ka pum dongah pumphoe sak ham a lungtlun.
16 to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim Him as good news among the nations, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
Amah te ni namtom taengah ka thui eh. Thii neh saa neh koeloe ka thaem moenih.
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus;
Kai hlankah caeltueih rhoek taengah Jerusalem lam khaw ka cet pawh. Tedae Arabia la ka cet tih Damasku la koep ka bal.
18 then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to inquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days,
Te lamkah a kum thum phoeiah Jerusalem la ka cet tih Kephas te ka ming. Te vaengah anih taengah hnin hlainga ka om.
19 and I did not see [any] other of the apostles, except James, the brother of the LORD.
Tedae Boeipa kah a mana James pawt atah a tloe caeltueih rhoek te ka hmu pawh.
20 And the things that I write to you, behold, before God—I do not lie;
Te dongah Pathen hmuhah ka laithae moenih tila nangmih ham ka daek he ne.
21 then I came into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,
Te phoeiah Syria neh Kilikia pingpang la ka pawk.
22 and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that [are] in Christ,
Tedae ka om vaengkah Khrih ah Judea kah hlangboel maelhmai te khaw ka mangvawt coeng.
23 and they were only hearing that “he who is persecuting us then, now proclaims good news—the faith that he was then destroying”;
Tedae, “Hnukbuet kah mamih aka hnaemtaek loh hnukbuet kah a phae tangnah te a phong coeng,” tila a yaak uh dawk nen ni a om uh.
24 and they were glorifying God in me.
Te vaengah kai dong lamloh Pathen te a thangpom uh.
