Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle—not an apostle from men nor by human agency, 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 brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia:
une palikimo na vanyalukolo tukusilembela itembile sooni sa Vagalatia.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
uvumosi nu lutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu nu Mutwa Yesu Kilisite fivisaghe numue.
4 who gave himself for our sins so that he might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and 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 am amazed that you are turning away so quickly from him who called you by the grace of Christ. I am amazed that you are turning 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 This is not to say that there is another gospel, but there are some men who cause you trouble and want to change 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 proclaim to you a gospel other than the one we proclaimed to you, let him be cursed.
neke nambe ndeve twesue au uMhola kuhuma kukyanya apulisia kulyumue ilivangili ilingi lino tukapulisie kulyumue na aghunuaghe.
9 As we have said before, so now I say again, “If someone proclaims to you a gospel other than the one you received, let him be cursed.”
ndavule ino tukajovile muvutengulilo, lino nijova kange, “ndeve kuli nu muunhu ilikuvapulisia ilivangili ilingi lino namukupile na aghunuaghe,”
10 For am I now seeking the approval of men or God? Am I seeking to please men? If I am still trying to please men, I am not a 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 For I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I proclaimed is not man's gospel.
vanyalukolo ninoghua umue mukagule kuuti ilivangili lini nikapulisie nalihumila kuvaanhu.
12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it. Instead, it was by revelation of Jesus Christ to me.
nanikwupile kuhuma kwa muunhu, nambe nanikavulanisifue, looli lulyale lwe, vwa Yesu Kilisite kulyune.
13 You have heard about my former life in Judaism, how I was persecuting the church of God beyond measure and that I was trying to destroy it.
mukapulike uvwumi vango uvwa kunsana ku nyifunyo isa kiYahudi, silyale sikumhumhusia ku vukali mu tembile ja Nguluve kukila na kukum'buda.
14 I advanced in Judaism beyond many of those who were my own age, from out of my own people. That is how extremely zealous I was 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 God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb, and who called me through his grace,
neke uNguluve lukamunoghile kukunavua une kuhuma mulileme lwa mama ghwango. akang'emelile une kukilila uvumosi vwake.
16 was pleased to reveal his Son in me, so that I would proclaim him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood.
kukum'bonesia unswambe n'kate n'jango, neke kuuti nimpulisie u mwene ku vapanji. nanikalondile kuvungua na vaanhu.
17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to those who had become apostles before me. Instead, I went to Arabia and then returned 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 get to know Cephas and I stayed with him fifteen days.
amaka ghatatu pambele nikatogha kuluta kuYelusalemu kukumughendela uKefa, nikikalile nagho iighono kijigho ni fihano.
19 But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
neke nanikamwaghile unsung'ua ujunge neke ju Yakobo unyalukolo ghwa Mutwa.
20 In what I write to you, I assure you before God, that I am not lying.
loola! pavulongolo pa Ngulluve nanisyanga ku kila kino nilemba kulyumue.
21 Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
pe pano nikaluta ku fighavo fya Shamu na Kulikia.
22 I was still not personally known to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
nanika kagulike ku maaso gha tembile ja vaYahudi vano valyale mwa Kilisite,
23 They only heard it being said, “The man who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the faith he once tried to destroy.”
neke vakale vipulika lwene,” umwene juno akale ikutupumhusia lino ipulisia ulwitiko luno akale ikulunangania.”
24 So they glorified God because of me.
valyale vikumughinia uNguluve vwimila jango.
