Galatians 6
1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in any fault, do ye, who are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, least thou also shouldst be tempted.
Ndugu, kama mkimwona mtu fulani amekosea, basi, ninyi mnaoongozwa na Roho mwonyeni mtu huyo ajirekebishe; lakini fanyeni hivyo kwa upole, mkiwa na tahadhari msije nanyi wenyewe mkajaribiwa.
2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Saidianeni kubeba mizigo yenu na hivyo mtatimiza sheria ya Kristo.
3 For if any one thinketh that he is something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
Mtu akijiona kuwa ni kitu, na kumbe si kitu, huyo anajidanganya mwenyewe.
4 But let every one try his own work, and then he will have matter of glorying in himself alone, and not in another.
Lakini kila mmoja na aupime vizuri mwenendo wake mwenyewe. Ukiwa mwema, basi, anaweza kuona fahari juu ya alichofanya bila kuwa na sababu ya kujilinganisha na mtu mwingine.
5 For every one shall bear his own burthen.
Maana kila mmoja anao mzigo wake mwenyewe wa kubeba.
6 And let him, that is instructed in the word, communicate in all good things to him that instructeth.
Mwenye kufundishwa neno la Mungu na amshirikishe mwalimu wake riziki zake.
7 Be not deceived, God is not to be mocked: for whatever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Msidanganyike; Mungu hafanyiwi dhihaka. Alichopanda mtu ndicho atakachovuna.
8 He then, who soweth to his flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he, that soweth to the Spirit, shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
Apandaye katika tamaa za kidunia, atavuna humo uharibifu; lakini akipanda katika Roho, atavuna kutoka kwa Roho uzima wa milele. (aiōnios g166)
9 And let us not be weary in doing good: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Basi, tusichoke kutenda mema; maana tusipolegea tutavuna mavuno kwa wakati wake.
10 And therefore as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, but especially to those who are of the houshold of faith.
Kwa hiyo, tukiwa bado na wakati, tuwatendee watu wote mema, na hasa ndugu wa imani yetu.
11 Ye see in how large letters I have written to you with my own hand.
Tazameni jinsi nilivyoandika kwa herufi kubwa, kwa mkono wangu mwenyewe.
12 They, who want to make a fair appearance in the flesh, would constrain you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
Wale wanaotaka kuonekana wazuri kwa mambo ya mwili ndio wanaotaka kuwalazimisha ninyi mtahiriwe. Wanafanya hivyo kwa sababu moja tu: kusudi wao wenyewe wasije wakadhulumiwa kwa sababu ya msalaba wa Kristo.
13 For they, who are circumcised, do not themselves keep the law: but they would have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
Maana, hao wenyewe waliotahiriwa hawaishiki Sheria; huwataka ninyi mtahiriwe wapate kujivunia alama hiyo mwilini mwenu.
14 But God forbid that I should glory, unless in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
Lakini mimi sitajivunia kamwe chochote isipokuwa msalaba wa Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo; maana kwa njia ya msalaba huo ulimwengu umesulubiwa kwangu, nami nimesulubiwa kwa ulimwengu.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but being created anew.
Kutahiriwa au kutotahiriwa si kitu; cha maana ni kuwa kiumbe kipya.
16 And as many as shall walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be on them, even upon all the Israel of God.
Wanaoufuata mwongozo huo nawatakia amani na huruma; amani na huruma kwa Israeli—Wateule wa Mungu.
17 For the future, let no one give me uneasiness: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
Basi, sasa mtu yeyote asinisumbue tena, maana alama nilizo nazo mwilini mwangu ni zile za Yesu.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, my brethren. Amen.
Ndugu, nawatakieni ninyi nyote neema ya Bwana wetu Kristo. Amina.
