Galatians 3

1 O thoughtless Galatians, who did bewitch you, not to obey the truth — before whose eyes Jesus Christ was described before among you crucified?

O deficient-minded Galatoyee, who bewildereth you? For, behold, as if depicted before your eyes, hath Jeshu the Meshiha been crucified.

2 this only do I wish to learn from you — by works of law the Spirit did ye receive, or by the hearing of faith?

This only would I know from you: Through the works of the law received you the Spirit, or through the hearing of faith?

3 so thoughtless are ye! having begun in the Spirit, now in the flesh do ye end?

Are you so foolish that having begun in the Spirit you are now finishing in the flesh?

4 so many things did ye suffer in vain! if, indeed, even in vain.

And all these have you borne in vain? But would it be in vain?

5 He, therefore, who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working mighty acts among you — by works of law or by the hearing of faith [is it]?

Then, he who imparted to you the Spirit, and wrought miracles among you, (did he so) through the works of the law, or through the hearing of faith?

6 according as Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him — to righteousness;

As Abraham believed Aloha, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness,

7 know ye, then, that those of faith — these are sons of Abraham,

know therefore that they who are of faith are the children of Abraham.

8 and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham —

For Aloha who knew before that he would justify the Gentiles through faith, evangelized before unto Abraham; as saith the holy scripture: In thee all the nations shall be blessed:

9 'Blessed in thee shall be all the nations;' so that those of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham,

therefore believers are blessed with Abraham the believer.

10 for as many as are of works of law are under a curse, for it hath been written, 'Cursed [is] every one who is not remaining in all things that have been written in the Book of the Law — to do them,'

For they who are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who doeth not all that is written in this law.

11 and that in law no one is declared righteous with God, is evident, because 'The righteous by faith shall live;'

But that man is not justified by the law before Aloha, this maketh manifest: because it is written, The just by faith shall live.

12 and the law is not by faith, but — 'The man who did them shall live in them.'

But the law is not of faith: but he who doeth those things that are written in it shall live by them.

13 Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, 'Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,'

But us hath the Meshiha bought from the curse of the law, and hath been made a curse instead of us: for it is written, Accursed is every one who is hanged on the wood:

14 that to the nations the blessing of Abraham may come in Christ Jesus, that the promise of the Spirit we may receive through the faith.

in order that upon the nations there might be the blessing of Abraham in Jeshu the Meshiha, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

15 Brethren, as a man I say [it], even of man a confirmed covenant no one doth make void or doth add to,

My brethren, I speak as among men: That a covenant of man because confirmed no one rejecteth, or changeth in any thing.

16 and to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed; He doth not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but as of one, 'And to thy seed,' which is Christ;

But to Abraham was promised the promise, and to his seed. And he did not say to him, Unto thy seeds, as of many; but, To thy seed, as of one, him, (namely, ) who is the Meshiha.

17 and this I say, A covenant confirmed before by God to Christ, the law, that came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not set aside, to make void the promise,

But I say this, that the covenant which was confirmed before by Aloha, in the Meshiha, the law which was after, four hundred and thirty years, cannot nullify, nor (can it) abolish the promise.

18 for if by law [be] the inheritance, [it is] no more by promise, but to Abraham through promise did God grant [it].

But if the inheritance was by the law, it could not have been by the promise; but Aloha gave it unto Abraham by promise.

19 Why, then, the law? on account of the transgressions it was added, till the seed might come to which the promise hath been made, having been set in order through messengers in the hand of a mediator —

Wherefore then was the law? It was added on account of transgression, until the Seed should come, he, of whom was the promise; and the law was given by angels into the hand of a Mediator.

20 and the mediator is not of one, and God is one —

But a Mediator is not of one; but Aloha is one.

21 the law, then, [is] against the promises of God? — let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness,

Is the law therefore against the promise of Aloha? Impossible: for if a law had been given which could make to live, certainly righteousness would have been by the law.

22 but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those believing.

But the scripture hath included all under sin, that the promise through faith of Jeshu Meshiha might be given to them who believe.

23 And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed,

But until (the dispensation of) faith came, the law kept us, as shut up unto the faith which was to be revealed.

24 so that the law became our child-conductor — to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous,

The law therefore was our conductor to the Meshiha, that we might be justified by faith.

25 and the faith having come, no more under a child-conductor are we,

But faith being come, we are not under the conductor.

26 for ye are all sons of God through the faith in Christ Jesus,

For you are all the children of Aloha through the faith of Jeshu the Meshiha.

27 for as many as to Christ were baptized did put on Christ;

For they who into the Meshiha are baptized have been clothed with the Meshiha.

28 there is not here Jew or Greek, there is not here servant nor freeman, there is not here male and female, for all ye are one in Christ Jesus;

Jihudoya or Aramoya is not; the slave or the free is not; male or female is not; for you are all one in Jeshu Meshiha.

29 and if ye [are] of Christ then of Abraham ye are seed, and according to promise — heirs.

And if you are of the Meshiha, therefore are you the seed of Abraham, and heirs by the promise.
