Galatians 4
1 Now, I [will further] discuss [children and heirs]: [An heir is a person who will later] control all that his father has. But as long as that heir is a child, others [control] him, with the result that he is just like a slave [MET].
Andoor tietirwo haniye, naatetwo na'i marmat'o wotar b́ daatsewor dets jamosh doonzo b́wotiyalor guutsoniyere eegonor k'osheratse.
2 Until the [day that] his father [previously] determined, [other] persons supervise him and manage his father’s property.
Ernmó b́nih bísh b́gedts aawo b́borfetsosh ditsirwotsnat maanzirwots shirootse b́ wotiti.
3 Likewise, when we [(inc)] (OR, we [(exc) Jews]) were [like] young children [MET], we were controlled by the spiritual powers of this world. They controlled us like [masters control their slaves] [MET].
Mank'owere no shayiri keewon nana'i marmat'wotsk'o noteshor datsan niwoosh keewetswotsi wotat gutswotsiye noteshi.
4 But exactly at the time [MTY] [that God had previously determined], he sent [Jesus], who is (his Son/the man who is also God), into the world. Jesus was born to a [human] mother. He had to obey the laws [that God gave to Moses].
Ernmó eteets dúro b́bodtsok'on Ik'o b́naayi noosh b́woshi, bíwere nemi shirots wotat máátsatse b́shuweyi.
5 God sent Jesus in order that he might redeem us who had to obey [God’s] laws. God wanted us all to receive from [God] the status of being his children [MET].
Hano b́k'al Mesee nemi shirotse teshtswotsi aani kewdek'onat noonowere Ik' nana'úwotskok'o noon woshoshe.
6 Furthermore, we know that we are God’s children because God sent the Spirit, who is intimately related to Jesus, to live in our (inner beings/hearts). [The Spirit enables us to] pray fervently, “Daddy, Father!” [This shows that we are God’s children].
Ik' nana'úwotsi it wottsosh Ik'o «Nihono!» ett s'eegiru naayo shayiro no nibots b́woshi.
7 So, [because of what God has done], no longer is [each of] you [like] a slave. Instead, [each of you is] a child [of God]. Furthermore, since [each of you is God’s] child, God has also made you his heir, [one who will receive all that he has promised].
Mansh eshe haniyak na'a neena bako guuts neenaliye, na'a nwotiyalo Ik'atse tuutson naatetwots neene.
8 When you did not have a relationship with God [MET], you served gods that really did not exist [MET]. You were their slaves.
Haniye shin Ik'o it dartsatse tuutson bo doyon izar izewerotsi woterawwotssh guutso wotatni it kéweefoni.
9 But now you have come to know God. Perhaps [it would be better to say that] now God knows you. [So now you are acting foolishly]! (You are again believing [that by obeying] rules and rites [you will benefit spiritually]! [RHQ] [Those rules are] ineffective and inadequate! You are wanting to [obey them] again [MET] like slaves obey their masters. [RHQ]
Andmó Ik'o danrte, dabnwor Ik'o itn danre, bere, ekeewots maawtswotsnat k'awntsal datsanatsi nemwotsok awk'oniya it aani? Aawuk'oneya ún aani aanat bo guutswotsi wotosh itgeyiri?
10 You [non-Jews] are carefully practicing [Jewish rules and rituals about what you should do] (on [Sabbaths/on Jewish days of rest]) and [on the first day of each] month and on [special] seasons and years.
K'osh k'osh aawwotsnat shashwotsn woriwoti kaywotsitsnat natwotsitse it atso kotosh k'osh wotts mango it imiri.
11 I (worry/am concerned) about your [mistaken ideas. I do not want] to have [so] strenuously served you in vain.
It dagotse finon t maawts maaw jamo k'awntsalo oritwe etniye t shatiri.
12 My fellow believers, I strongly urge you that you do as I do. [Stop thinking that you have to obey (Jewish rules and rituals/ceremonial laws]). [When I was with you], I [did not obey all the Jewish rules and rituals], just like you [did not obey them]. [At that time] you treated me entirely as you should have [LIT].
T eshwotso! taa itkok'o t wottsosh itwere tikok'o wotoore etaatniye t k'oniri, it taan eegoru daderatste.
13 You know that the first time I preached to you, [I went to your area to regain my health, because I was physically weak].
Shini doo shishiyi aap'o itsh nabosh gowo t daats t shodtsatse tuutson b́wotok'o danfte.
14 [Although] you might have [despised me because] I was physically weak, you did not despise me or act contemptuously/disrespectfully toward me. Instead, you welcomed me like [you would welcome] an angel from God. [You welcomed me] like [you would welcome] Christ Jesus!
T shodo dab itsh fadee b́ wotiyaliru taan gac'eratste wee taan wic'atste, dab melakiyo it dek'iruwok'owe woshdek'at taan it dek'i, Krstos Iyesusi dek'iruwok'o woshat taan it dek'i.
15 (I am disappointed that you have forgotten [that then] you [declared that you were] pleased with [me]./Have you forgotten [that then] you [declared that you were] pleased with [me]?) [RHQ] I can testify that you [would have done anything to help me]. You would have gouged out your eyes [and] given them to me, [if that would have helped me]!
Haniyere shini it detsts geneú jamo aawoke b́fa'oni? B́ faleyal it ááwwotsi dab kishde'er it imetwok'o taa t tookon gaw wotitwe.
16 So I am very disappointed that you [now] act as though [RHQ] I have become hostile to you [because I have kept] speaking the true [message about Christ] to you.
Eshe, and ariko itsh t keewtsosheya it balangaro wotat t daatseyi?
17 Those [who are insisting on obeying Jewish rules] are eagerly [showing interest in] you, but [what they are doing is] not good. They even want you not to associate with [me and other true] believers, because they want you to eagerly show [interest in] them, [not in us].
K'osh ashuwots it jangosh kic'atniye boshiyaniri, ernmó han bok'alir sheengoshaliye, bo geyirwo it noatse it k'aletwok'owonat boosh kúp'ar it shiyanitwok'owe.
18 But [just like] it always feels good to have others show that they appreciate you, [I would like you] always [to appreciate me], and not only when I am with you.
Sheeng k'os'osh kúp'o jam gizewon shenge, ernmó it kúp'an taa itnton t beyor s'uzosh wotk'aye.
19 You [who are like] my children, [once] again I am very worried/concerned about you [MET], [and I will continue to] be worried/concerned until Christ’s [nature becomes developed] in you [completely and wholeheartedly] [MET] [as a child] becomes developed [in his mother’s womb].
T nana'otso! Krstos it atse sháánon b́ be'efetsosh aani it jangosh na'it'i shambatse t fa'oni.
20 But I do wish that I could be with you now and that I might talk [more gently with you], because I do not know [what to do about] you [while we are apart].
Itsh eeg k'alo taash b́ geyituwok'o itdartsotse dandeyatniye t kic'i, it dagotetsere datseyar k'osh k'osh noon keewon tkeewink'ere aawk'owe t shuni.
21 Some of you desire [to obey all the laws] that God gave Moses. [I say that] you [should] consider [RHQ] [the implications of what Moses wrote in] the Scriptures.
It nemosh keewetswotsi wotar beyo geyirwots aab taash keewwere, nemo bíetirwo shiyatsteya?
22 [He] wrote that Abraham became the father of two sons. His female slave, [Hagar], bore one son, and his [wife Sarah], who was not a slave, bore the other.
S'ayin mas'aafwotsitse «Abraham git nana'úwotsi detsfe b́teshi, iko b́shwee gonuwatse wotat k'oshonu b́shwee mááts gon woteraawwatsna b́teshi» ett guut'ere.
23 Also, [the sons differed. Ishmael], the [son born by] the female slave, was conceived naturally. But [Isaac], the [son born by] his wife who was not a slave, was conceived [miraculously] as a result of what [God] had promised [Abraham].
Gonu naay b́shuwe meets niwok'on b́wotefere gon woteraw naay b́shuwemó bísh jangit aap'etsok'one b́teshi.
24 [I am telling you this] as an illustration. These [two women] symbolize two agreements. [God made] the first [agreement, which involved obeying the laws that God gave to Moses] at Sinai Mountain. [Because that agreement forces those who accept it to keep obeying all its rules] [MET], [it is like a slave mother who] gives birth to slaves. [So] Hagar, [the female slave, symbolizes] that [agreement].
Shints taarets taaretsnwere Sin guratstsu b wotor gutsmosh wotit nana'o shuwiruniye, biwere Agariye.
25 Also, the [word] ‘Hagar’ is [associated with] Sinai Mountain, [which is] in Arabia [land. Hagar, the female slave, also] represents Jerusalem as it is today. Jerusalem is [like] [MET] a slave [mother, and those who live there] [PRS] [are like] her slave children [MET] [because they all must obey the laws that God gave to Moses].
Agaar Araawi datsatse fa'a Sin guro ariyetsuniye bteshi, mansh eshe andtsu Iyerusalemntoniye biariri, bi bnanaúwotsnton guutsmotse fa'úniye.
26 But there will be a [new] Jerusalem in heaven [MTY], and we [who will go there] are free [from having to obey Jewish laws]. We [who belong to that city consider it to be] our mother [MET] [city because we are God’s true children].
Dambe darotsik wottsu Iyerusalemmó goniyaliye, biye no indiye.
27 [Our new city will have more people than those who live in Jerusalem now. It will be just like] Isaiah foretold about [the people whom he expected would come back to Jerusalem from exile. He expected that they would be more numerous than those who] were taken into exile. He wrote: [You who live in Jerusalem, you will] rejoice! Now you have no children, like a barren [woman] who does not give birth to [children! But some day you will] shout [joyfully], (without restraint/as loudly as you can), [even though now you are few in number, like a woman who] cannot give birth [to children, and you] feel deserted. [You will be very happy] because [you will have many children who will come to you. Those children will be] more than [the children] any woman with a husband [could have borne].
«Nee nana'a shuraawne gene'úwowe! Nee shuwosh id'r danaawne ‹ílll› eree, Kenih detsts máátsuniyere K'azk'rets máátsu ay nana'o detsfane» ett guut'ere.
28 Now, [my] fellow believers, you have become children [of God as a result of believing God’s] promise to us, as Isaac [was born as a result of Abraham believing what God promised to him] [MET].
Tieshwotso! itwere Yisaak'kok'o jangiyets aap'i nana'úwots itne.
29 [Also, long ago Abraham’s son] Ishmael, the one who was conceived naturally, caused trouble for [Abraham’s son] Isaac, who [was conceived] supernaturally [MET]. Similarly, now [those who think that we must obey the laws that God gave Moses in order that God will save us are causing trouble for those who are trusting Abraham’s descendant, Christ].
Ernmó manoor meetson shuwetso Shayiron shuweetsman b́gishtsok'o hambetsoor mank'oyiye.
30 But these are [RHQ] the words in the Scriptures [PRS]: “The son of the [woman] who was not a slave will inherit [what his father has]. The female slave’s son will certainly not inherit those things. So send away from [this place] the female slave and her son [MET]!” [That means that you should certainly expel from your groups those who insist that we obey all the laws God gave Moses] [MET].
Ernmó S'ayin mas'aafo bíetirwo eebi? S'ayin mas'aafo «Mááts gonu bshuts na'o gon woteraw máátsu bshutsonton towaar b́naarawotse gonu bnaaynton okaan kishwe» etfe.
31 [My] fellow believers, [Hagar symbolizes the laws that God gave to Moses. But we are not those who must obey all the laws that God gave to Moses] [MET]. [So] we are not [the] female slave [Hagar’s spiritual] descendants [MET]. But [Sarah’s descendants are those who were born as a result of believing what God promised to Abraham. So we are] the [spiritual] descendants of [Sarah, the woman] who was not a slave [MET].
Mansh eshe tieeshwotso, noo s'ayinu nana'úwots noone bako gonu nanaúwots noonaliye.
