Galatians 5
1 It is in order that we might live without (being obliged [to/having to]) [obey all the Jewish rituals] that Christ freed us [from God condemning us because of our disobeying those rituals]. So, firmly [reject the false teaching that someone must circumcise you, and] do not [live like] slaves again [MET] [by letting others force you to obey those rules and rituals again].
Krstos nas'o noon b́kish nas'on nobeyishe. Mansh eshe kup'arr need'ore, aaninwere guutsmi k'ambariyots tipek'ayere.
2 Consider very carefully what I, Paul, [an apostle], now tell you: If, [to fulfill Jewish ritual laws], you are permitting yourself to be circumcised {someone to circumcise you}, what Christ [has done for you] will not benefit you at all.
Hambe! taa P'awlos itsh tietetwo haniye, gofo it amal Krstos itsh eegor k'alratse,
3 Instead, I solemnly declare again to every man who is circumcised {has someone circumcise him} [in order for God to accept him], that you must [perfectly] obey all of the laws [that God gave Moses, in order for God to save you].
Gof ametu jamo «Nem jam s'eentso bín geyife» err aani bísh keewitwe,
4 Those of you who are sure that God will erase the record of your sins because you obey the laws [that God gave to Moses], you have separated yourselves from Christ. You have abandoned/rejected [God’s true method of saving you, which was] by kindly erasing the record of your sins, in a way that you did not deserve.
It nem koton kááw wotosh geyiru jamwots Krstosatse k'alewtserte, b́ s'aatotsnowere keshrtee.
5 But we who have a relationship with Christ and who trust in Christ are eagerly waiting to receive what God’s Spirit assures us that we can expect. We can expect to receive it because God has erased the record of our sins.
Noomó Ik' shayiron kááwi wotosh jángiyetso imnetiyone nokotiri.
6 As for us who have a relationship with Christ Jesus, God is not concerned whether we are circumcised or not circumcised. Instead, God is concerned about whether we trust [in] Christ, with the result that we love [other people].
Iyesus Krstosn beetwosh shunon finitwo imnetiya boko gof amaa wee amk'azo eegoru oot'o imatse.
7 You were progressing well [spiritually] [MET]. You should not have let someone influence you so that [now you] are not believing the true [message about Christ] [RHQ]!
It sha'a sha'o sheenge b́ teshi, eshe and arkeewosh it alerawok'o itn bazitso kone?
8 [God], the one who chose you, is not the one who is persuading you to think like this!
Hank'o izan itn s'eegts Ik'oke waakaliye.
9 [Remember that this false doctrine that someone is teaching you will affect all of you, just like] [MET] a little yeast causes all of the dough to swell up.
Manwere boot' shash muk'ú boot' jamo b shashitwoshe.
10 [Nevertheless], because of my relationship with the Lord, I am certain that you will think only as I do [about forcing people to obey rules and rituals]. Furthermore, [God] will punish anyone who is confusing you [by teaching this false message], even if he is an important person.
Ernmó haniyere k'osho it gawirwo it deshawok'osh arikon wotde'er doonzats amanittwe, konworu it took s'adiitwo b́ beyal angsho dek'etwe.
11 But, my fellow believers, [although someone claims that I am proclaiming that men must be circumcised, I certainly am not still proclaiming that. Remember that the Jews are still] ([persecuting me/causing me to suffer]). If I were still proclaiming that men must be circumcised [in order for God to accept them], (the Jews would not be persecuting me./why would the Jews be persecuting me?) [RHQ] [They would] [RHQ] not be [persecuting me]/causing me to suffer [because] then [the Jews] would no longer be offended. [They] ([are offended/do not want to accept what I teach]) [because I proclaim that Christ, the Messiah, died on] the cross [MTY].
Tí eshwotso! taa andish b́ borfetsosh t nabirwo, «Kashosh gof amo geyife» etirwe wotiyal andish b́ borfetsosh eegishe t gisheyiri? Hank'o b́ wotitka wotiyal Krstos mask'aliyo ashuwotssh t'ug woterawnk'e b́ teshi.
12 I [would even] wish that those who are disturbing you [by insisting that men be circumcised] would also emasculate [EUP] themselves, [with the result that they would be expelled from your congregations]!
Eshe hanots iti dandiru ashaanots bogeyiyal gof amo s'uzi b́ woterawo boatso gato bowoshink'ere shúnfe.
13 My fellow believers, [God] chose you in order that [you might live] without having to [obey rules and rituals]. But [do not assume that because] you are free [from having to obey rules and rituals], [God] permits you to [do whatever your] self-directed nature [desires]. Instead, constantly, as you love [each other], serve each other.
Tí eshwotso! it nas'o keshtswotsi it wotish s'egerte, ernmó iko k'oshosh shunon finowa bako nas'o it keshaan meets tewno s'eentsosh wotk'aye.
14 Keep in mind that we can sum up all of the laws [that God has] given us in one law, which is: “You must love each person you come in contact with, just like [you love] yourself.”
Nem jamo «K'osh asho n tokok'o woshde'er shune» eteets aap' ikon s'eenetwe.
15 Since you are attacking and injuring [MET] each other [by the things that you say] [MET], I warn you that [if you continue doing that], you will totally ruin each other [spiritually].
Ernmó it atsatseyo shac'eyatni it meeyeyiri wotiyal it atsatseyo it s'uweerawok'oo it atso korde'ere.
16 [So] I tell you this: Constantly let [God’s] Spirit direct you. [If you do that], you will certainly not do the things that your self-directed nature wants [you to do].
Eshe haniyak shayiron jisheyar it betka wotiyal, meets tewno s'eentsk'ayere.
17 Your self-directed nature (opposes [God’s] Spirit/does not [want you to do what] God’s Spirit [wants you to do]), but also his Spirit opposes your self-directed nature. These two are always (fighting with/opposing) each other. The result is that you do not [constantly] do the [good] deeds that you truly desire [to do].
Meets tewno shayiri tewnontotoniye b́ wed'eyiri, shayiri tewnonu meets tewnontoniye b́wed'eyri, mansh meetsonat shayiron boats atsewo bo wed'eyiri, eshe it geyirwo k'alo falratste.
18 But when you are led by God’s Spirit {when God’s Spirit directs you}, you [can do what pleases God], now that you are no longer obligated [to obey all] the laws [that God gave Moses].
Shayirona it jiisheyiri wotink'eremó nemosh keweyirwotsi woterawnk'te.
19 [You already know] how [people think and] act [PRS] because of their self-directed nature. These are [some of the things that they do: People] are sexually immoral. [People] commit unnatural sexual acts. [People] act indecently.
Meetsi finwots daneknee, boowere wido, kiimwoto, shiraats jintsi woto,
20 [People] worship false gods [and] things [that] represent those gods. [People] perform (rituals in order that evil spirits might act for them/sorcery). [People] are hostile [to others. People] quarrel [with each other. People] are (jealous/resent other people’s status). [People] behave angrily. [People] try (to get others to think highly of them/to exalt themselves) and (do not consider what others want/act selfishly). People do not associate [with others. People] associate only with those who agree [with them].
Woteraw ik'wotsi ik'iyo, atetsi woto, balangar woto, mooshewo, fayo, okooro, b́took shuno, k'aleyo, weeri gondo,
21 [People] want what others have. [People] get drunk. [People] (revel/participate in wild parties). And [people do other] things like these. I warn you [now], just like I warned [you previously], that the ones [who constantly] act [and think] like that will not receive [what] God [has for his own people when he begins] to rule over us.
ash een shit'o, másho, weral t'oola, hanotsi artswotsiye, haniyere shin itatso korde'ere tiettsok'on andoor aaniyi it atso korde'ere etirwe, hanotsk'o wotts keewwotsi finit ashuwots Ik'i mengtstu naaratsne.
22 But [God’s] Spirit causes [us to do these things]: We love [others]. We are joyful. We are peaceful. We are patient. We are kind. We are good. We are [ones whom] others can trust.
S'ayin shayiri shuwonmó shuno, geneúwo, jeeno, k'amo, sheengo, doowo, amanetso woto,
23 We are gentle. We control our behavior. There is no law that says people should not [think and act in such ways].
Dingato woto, b́took keewoniye. Hanotsk'o keewwotsi k'efit nemo aaliye,
24 Furthermore, we who belong to Christ Jesus have [stopped obeying] our self-directed nature and [stopped doing] all the evil things that we desire to do [MET]. [It is as though] [MET] we nailed them to the cross!
Krstos Iyesusk wotts ashuwots meetso b́gusiyontonat b́tewnonton mesk'eliyats jitk'rerne.
25 Since [God’s] Spirit has caused us to [be spiritually] alive, we should [conduct our lives the way the] Spirit [directs us].
Shayirona nobeeyiri wotiyal shayiron jishewone.
26 We should not be saying how great we are. We should not be making ourselves more important than others. We should not envy each other.
Iko k'osho gondosh tuuzr noatsatsewo okoorefetsr datsmec'ro it'k'ayone.
