Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle, ( not from men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead; )
Nze Pawulo omutume, ataatumibwa bantu wadde omuntu, wabula eyatumibwa Yesu Kristo ne Katonda Kitaffe, eyamuzuukiza mu bafu,
2 And all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
awamu n’abooluganda bonna abali nange tuwandiikira ekkanisa ez’e Ggalatiya,
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
nga tugamba nti ekisa n’emirembe ebiva eri Katonda Kitaffe n’eri Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo bibeerenga nammwe;
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: (aiōn g165)
Kristo oyo eyeewaayo ku lw’ebibi byaffe, alyoke atununule mu mulembe guno omubi ng’okwagala kwa Katonda, era Kitaffe bwe kuli, (aiōn g165)
aweebwe ekitiibwa emirembe n’emirembe. Amiina. (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that ye are so soon turning from him that called you into the grace of Christ to another gospel:
Naye mbeewuunya kubanga mukyuka mangu okuva ku oyo, eyabayita olw’ekisa kya Kristo, naye ne mukyuka mangu okugoberera Enjiri endala.
7 Which is not another; but there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Kubanga tewali njiri ndala, wabula mwawubisibwa abaagala okunyoola n’okukyusa Enjiri ya Kristo.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed.
Omuntu yenna, ne bwe tuba ffe, wadde malayika ava mu ggulu, bw’abuuliranga Enjiri okuggyako gye twababuulira, akolimirwenga.
9 As we said before, so I say now again, If any man preacheth any other gospel to you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Nga bwe twasooka okwogera, bwe ntyo nziramu okukyogera nti, omuntu yenna bw’ababuulira Enjiri eteri eyo ggye mwakkiriza akolimirwenga.
10 For do I now seek the favour of men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Kale kaakano nkolerera kumatiza bantu oba kusiimibwa Katonda? Oba ngezaako kusanyusa bantu? Singa nnali nkyagezaako okusanyusa abantu, sandibadde muddu wa Kristo.
11 But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.
Kubanga abooluganda, mbategeeza nti, Enjiri gye nababuulira teyeesigamizibwa ku muntu,
12 For I neither received it from man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
era nange saagiweebwa muntu wadde okusomesebwa omuntu wabula Yesu Kristo ye yagimbikkulira.
13 For ye have heard of my former manner of life in time past in the Jews’ religion, that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
Mumanyi nga bwe nnali nfaanana nga nkyagoberera eddiini y’Ekiyudaaya, nga bwe nayigganyanga ennyo Ekkanisa ya Katonda okugizikiza,
14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
era nga nnali omu ku bannaddiini abaakulaakulana mu ggwanga lyange, ne nsukkuluma ku Bayudaaya bannange be nakula nabo, era nagezaako nnyo nga bwe nasobola okugoberera empisa zonna ez’edda ez’amateeka g’eddiini yange.
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
Naye Katonda bwe yasiima, eyanjawula okuva mu lubuto lwa mmange, n’ampita olw’ekisa kye,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
n’ambikkulira Omwana we ndyoke ŋŋende eri Abaamawanga mbabuulire Enjiri era sseebuuza ku muntu n’omu,
17 Neither did I go to Jerusalem to them who were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
newaakubadde okwambuka e Yerusaalemi okwebuuza ku batume, naye nagenda mu Buwalabu era oluvannyuma ne nkomawo e Damasiko.
18 Then after three years I went to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
Awo bwe waayitawo emyaka esatu ne ŋŋenda e Yerusaalemi okulaba Keefa ne mmala naye ennaku kkumi na ttaano.
19 But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the Lord’s brother.
Naye ssaalaba mutume mulala wabula Yakobo muganda wa Mukama waffe.
20 Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.
Noolwekyo bye mbawandiikira, si bya bulimba mu maaso ga Katonda.
21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
Bwe navaayo ne ndaga mu bitundu eby’e Siriya n’eby’e Kirukiya.
22 And was unknown by face to the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
Era ekkanisa za Kristo mu Buyudaaya zaali tezinnategeera bwe nfaanana.
23 But they had heard only, That he who persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
Naye nga bamanyi nti, “Eyatuyigganyanga, kaakano abuulira okukkiriza kwe yagezaako okuzikiriza.”
24 And they glorified God in me.
Era ne bagulumiza Katonda ku lwange.
