< Galatians 1 >

1 Paul, an Apostle, not from men, neither by man; but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father who raised him from the dead;
Nze Pawulo omutume, ataatumibwa bantu wadde omuntu, wabula eyatumibwa Yesu Kristo ne Katonda Kitaffe, eyamuzuukiza mu bafu,
2 and all the brethren who are with me, to the congregations of Galatia:
awamu n’abooluganda bonna abali nange tuwandiikira ekkanisa ez’e Ggalatiya,
3 Favor to you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
nga tugamba nti ekisa n’emirembe ebiva eri Katonda Kitaffe n’eri Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo bibeerenga nammwe;
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
Kristo oyo eyeewaayo ku lw’ebibi byaffe, alyoke atununule mu mulembe guno omubi ng’okwagala kwa Katonda, era Kitaffe bwe kuli, (aiōn g165)
5 to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
aweebwe ekitiibwa emirembe n’emirembe. Amiina. (aiōn g165)
6 I wonder that you are so soon removed from him who called you into the favor of Christ, to another gospel;
Naye mbeewuunya kubanga mukyuka mangu okuva ku oyo, eyabayita olw’ekisa kya Kristo, naye ne mukyuka mangu okugoberera Enjiri endala.
7 which is not another: but there are some who trouble you, and wish to pervert the gospel of Christ.
Kubanga tewali njiri ndala, wabula mwawubisibwa abaagala okunyoola n’okukyusa Enjiri ya Kristo.
8 But if even we, or an angel from heaven, declare a gospel to you, different from what we have declared to you, let him be accursed.
Omuntu yenna, ne bwe tuba ffe, wadde malayika ava mu ggulu, bw’abuuliranga Enjiri okuggyako gye twababuulira, akolimirwenga.
9 As we said before, so now I say again, if any one declare a gospel to you, different from what you have received, let him be accursed.
Nga bwe twasooka okwogera, bwe ntyo nziramu okukyogera nti, omuntu yenna bw’ababuulira Enjiri eteri eyo ggye mwakkiriza akolimirwenga.
10 For do I now conciliate men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Kale kaakano nkolerera kumatiza bantu oba kusiimibwa Katonda? Oba ngezaako kusanyusa bantu? Singa nnali nkyagezaako okusanyusa abantu, sandibadde muddu wa Kristo.
11 Now I certify you, brethren, concerning the gospel which was declared by me, that it is not according to men.
Kubanga abooluganda, mbategeeza nti, Enjiri gye nababuulira teyeesigamizibwa ku muntu,
12 For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, except by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
era nange saagiweebwa muntu wadde okusomesebwa omuntu wabula Yesu Kristo ye yagimbikkulira.
13 You have certainly heard of my behavior formerly in Judaism; that I exceedingly persecuted the congregation of God, and laid it waste;
Mumanyi nga bwe nnali nfaanana nga nkyagoberera eddiini y’Ekiyudaaya, nga bwe nayigganyanga ennyo Ekkanisa ya Katonda okugizikiza,
14 and made progress in Judaism above many of the same age with myself, in my own nation, being more exceedingly jealous of the traditions of my fathers.
era nga nnali omu ku bannaddiini abaakulaakulana mu ggwanga lyange, ne nsukkuluma ku Bayudaaya bannange be nakula nabo, era nagezaako nnyo nga bwe nasobola okugoberera empisa zonna ez’edda ez’amateeka g’eddiini yange.
15 But when God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his favor, was pleased
Naye Katonda bwe yasiima, eyanjawula okuva mu lubuto lwa mmange, n’ampita olw’ekisa kye,
16 to reveal his Son to me, that I might declare the good news concerning him to the Gentiles; immediately I did not consult flesh and blood:
n’ambikkulira Omwana we ndyoke ŋŋende eri Abaamawanga mbabuulire Enjiri era sseebuuza ku muntu n’omu,
17 neither did I go up to Jerusalem, to them who were Apostles before me; but I went away in Arabia, and again returned to Damascus.
newaakubadde okwambuka e Yerusaalemi okwebuuza ku batume, naye nagenda mu Buwalabu era oluvannyuma ne nkomawo e Damasiko.
18 Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem, to become acquainted with Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
Awo bwe waayitawo emyaka esatu ne ŋŋenda e Yerusaalemi okulaba Keefa ne mmala naye ennaku kkumi na ttaano.
19 But I saw no other of the Apostles, except James, the Lord's brother.
Naye ssaalaba mutume mulala wabula Yakobo muganda wa Mukama waffe.
20 Now as to the things which I write to you, behold, God is my witness that I do not falsely affirm.
Noolwekyo bye mbawandiikira, si bya bulimba mu maaso ga Katonda.
21 After that, I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
Bwe navaayo ne ndaga mu bitundu eby’e Siriya n’eby’e Kirukiya.
22 and I was personally unknown to the congregations of Judea which are in Christ.
Era ekkanisa za Kristo mu Buyudaaya zaali tezinnategeera bwe nfaanana.
23 They had only heard that--he who formerly persecuted us, now announces, as glad tidings, the faith which he formerly destroyed.
Naye nga bamanyi nti, “Eyatuyigganyanga, kaakano abuulira okukkiriza kwe yagezaako okuzikiriza.”
24 And they glorified God on my account.
Era ne bagulumiza Katonda ku lwange.
