Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle, not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead, —
une ne nsung'ua Paulo. une nanilinsung'ua kuhuma kuvaanhu nambe kukilila kuvaanhu, neke kukilila kwa Yesu kilisite nu Nguluve Nhaata juno alyansyuluile kuhuma kuvafue.
2 and all the brethren that are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
une palikimo na vanyalukolo tukusilembela itembile sooni sa Vagalatia.
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
uvumosi nu lutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu nu Mutwa Yesu Kilisite fivisaghe numue.
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from the present evil world, according to the will of God our Father; (aiōn g165)
jino akihumisie vwimila isambi situ neke kuuti atupoke mu fighono ifi fya vuhosi, kuhumilanila nu lughano lwa Nguluve ghwitu nu Nhaata. (aiōn g165)
kwa mwene vuve vwimike vuno navuli kusila na kusila (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that ye are so soon turning from him that called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel;
nidegha kuuti musyetukila ng'aning'ani mu livangili ilingi, nidegha kuuti musyetukile kutali kuhuma kwa juno alyavakemhelile ku vumosi vwa Kilisite.
7 which is not another; only there are certain persons who are troubling you, and seeking to change entirely the gospel of Christ.
kusila livangili ilingi, neke kwevale avaanhu vamonga vano vikuvasababikisia imhumhuko na kunoghua kusyetulania ilivangili lwa Kilisite.
8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel to you contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed!
neke nambe ndeve twesue au uMhola kuhuma kukyanya apulisia kulyumue ilivangili ilingi lino tukapulisie kulyumue na aghunuaghe.
9 As we have said before, so I now say again, If any one preach a gospel to you contrary to that which ye received, let him be accursed!
ndavule ino tukajovile muvutengulilo, lino nijova kange, “ndeve kuli nu muunhu ilikuvapulisia ilivangili ilingi lino namukupile na aghunuaghe,”
10 For do I now seek the favor of men, or of God? Or am I endeavoring to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
pe lino nilonda kuhakikisia ku vaanhu au uNguluve. nilonda kukuvahovosia avaanhu? ndeve nighendelela kughelasia kukuvahovosia avaanhu, une nanili nsung'ua ghwa Kilisite.
11 But I assure you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not after man;
vanyalukolo ninoghua umue mukagule kuuti ilivangili lini nikapulisie nalihumila kuvaanhu.
12 for I did not receive it from man nor was I taught it by any man, but it was revealed to me by Jesus Christ.
nanikwupile kuhuma kwa muunhu, nambe nanikavulanisifue, looli lulyale lwe, vwa Yesu Kilisite kulyune.
13 For ye have heard of my conduct formerly in Judaism; that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and was destroying it,
mukapulike uvwumi vango uvwa kunsana ku nyifunyo isa kiYahudi, silyale sikumhumhusia ku vukali mu tembile ja Nguluve kukila na kukum'buda.
14 and made progress in Judaism beyond many of the same age with me in my nation, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
nilyaghendelile mu tembile ja kiYahudi kukila avanyalukolo vango vinga avaYahudi. nilyalye nu lughimbo kyongo mu vutavike la vababa vango.
15 But when it pleased him who set me apart from my very birth, and called me through his grace,
neke uNguluve lukamunoghile kukunavua une kuhuma mulileme lwa mama ghwango. akang'emelile une kukilila uvumosi vwake.
16 to reveal his Son within me, that I might publish the glad tidings of him among the gentiles, immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood,
kukum'bonesia unswambe n'kate n'jango, neke kuuti nimpulisie u mwene ku vapanji. nanikalondile kuvungua na vaanhu.
17 neither did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
kange nanikatoghile ku Yelusalemu ku vala vano valyale vasung'ua ye nikyale une. pe pano nikaluta ku vualabuni na pambele kugomoka ku Damesiki.
18 Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and stayed with him fifteen days;
amaka ghatatu pambele nikatogha kuluta kuYelusalemu kukumughendela uKefa, nikikalile nagho iighono kijigho ni fihano.
19 but no other of the apostles did I see, save James the brother of the Lord.
neke nanikamwaghile unsung'ua ujunge neke ju Yakobo unyalukolo ghwa Mutwa.
20 Now as to what I am writing to you, behold, before God, I do not lie.
loola! pavulongolo pa Ngulluve nanisyanga ku kila kino nilemba kulyumue.
21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
pe pano nikaluta ku fighavo fya Shamu na Kulikia.
22 and I was unknown by face to the churches of Judaea which were in Christ;
nanika kagulike ku maaso gha tembile ja vaYahudi vano valyale mwa Kilisite,
23 but they were only hearing that “He who was once our persecutor is now preaching the faith which he was once destroying”;
neke vakale vipulika lwene,” umwene juno akale ikutupumhusia lino ipulisia ulwitiko luno akale ikulunangania.”
24 and they glorified God in me.
valyale vikumughinia uNguluve vwimila jango.
