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—
Paoly Apostoly ― tsy avy tamin’ olona, na tamin’ ny alalan’ olona, fa tamin’ ny alalan’ i Jesosy Kristy sy Andriamanitra Ray, Izay nanangana Azy tamin’ ny maty ―
2 and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia:
mbamin’ ny rahalahy rehetra izay ato amiko, mamangy ny fiangonana atỳ Galatia:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin’ Andriamanitra Ray sy Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika,
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)
Izay nanolotra ny tenany noho ny fahotantsika, hanafahany antsika amin’ izao miara-belona ratsy fanahy izao, araka ny sitrapon’ Andriamanitra Raintsika; (aiōn g165)
ho Azy anie ny voninahitra mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. (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.
Gaga aho, raha mifindra faingana toy izao ianareo hiala amin’ izay efa niantso anareo tamin’ ny fahasoavan’ i Kristy ho amin’ ny filazantsara hafa,
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.
izay tsy filazantsara akory, fa saingy misy ny sasany mampitabataba anareo ka ta-hamadika ny filazantsaran’ i Kristy.
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.
Fa na izahay, na anjely avy any an-danitra aza, no mitory filazantsara hafa aminareo afa-tsy izay efa notorinay taminareo, aoka ho voaozona izy.
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.”
Araka ny voalazanay fahiny no lazaiko indray ankehitriny: Raha misy olona mitory filazantsara hafa aminareo, afa-tsy izay efa noraisinareo, aoka ho voaozona izy,
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.
Ary ankehitriny, olona va no ilako fitia, sa Andriamanitra? Sa mila sitraka amin’ olona aho? Raha mbola mila sitraka amin’ olona aho, dia tsy mpanompon’ i Kristy.
11 For I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I proclaimed is not man's gospel.
Fa ampahafantariko anareo, ry rahalahy, ny amin’ ny filazantsara izay notoriko, fa tsy araka ny fanaon’ ny olona izany.
12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it. Instead, it was by revelation of Jesus Christ to me.
Fa izaho tsy nandray azy tamin’ olona, ary tsy mba nampianarina aho, fa tamin’ ny fanambaran’ i Jesosy Kristy ihany.
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.
Fa efa renareo ny toetro fahiny tamin’ ny fivavahan’ ny Jiosy, fa nanenjika ny fiangonan’ Andriamanitra efa izay tsy izy aho ka nandrava azy;
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.
ary nandroso tamin’ ny fivavahan’ ny Jiosy mihoatra noho ny maro izay indray mihira amiko eo amin’ ny fireneko aho ka fatra-pitana ny fampianarana voatolotry ny razako indrindra.
15 But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb, and who called me through his grace,
Fa raha sitrak’ Andriamanitra, Izay nanokana ahy hatrany an-kibon’ ineny ny niantso ahy tamin’ ny fahasoavany,
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.
ny nampiseho ny Zanany tato anatiko, mba hitoriako Azy any amin’ ny jentilisa, niaraka tamin’ izay dia tsy naka saina tamin’ ny nofo aman-drà aho,
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.
ary tsy niakatra tany Jerosalema ho any amin’ izay Apostoly talohako aho, fa lasa nankany Arabia, dia niverina ho any Damaskosy indray.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to get to know Cephas and I stayed with him fifteen days.
Ary rehefa afaka telo taona, dia niakatra tany Jerosalema hamangy an’ i Kefasy aho ka nitoetra tao aminy dimy ambin’ ny folo andro.
19 But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
Nefa ny Apostoly sasany dia tsy nisy hitako afa-tsy Jakoba, rahalahin’ ny Tompo.
20 In what I write to you, I assure you before God, that I am not lying.
Ary izay zavatra soratako aminareo, indro, eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra fa tsy mandainga aho.
21 Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
Rehefa afaka izany, dia tonga tany amin’ ny tany Syria sy Kilikia aho;
22 I was still not personally known to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
ary tsy mbola fantatry ny fiangonana any Jodia, izay ao amin’ i Kristy, ny tarehiko.
23 They only heard it being said, “The man who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the faith he once tried to destroy.”
Fa nandre ihany izy hoe: Ilay mpanenjika antsika fahiny, indro izy ankehitriny mitory ny finoana izay noravany fahiny.
24 So they glorified God because of me.
Ary dia nankalazany an’ Andriamanitra aho.
