Galatians 4
1 And I say, so long time as the heir is a babe, he differeth nothing from a servant — being lord of all,
Su ntakula vinu, muhala pakawera kankali mwana mdidini hapeni kaweri ntambu yingi na mumanda tembera ulunda woseri uwera wakuwi.
2 but is under tutors and stewards till the time appointed of the father,
Mweni kawera pasi pa walera wakuwi na yawalolera ulunda wakuwi mpaka shipindi sha kuhala shashitulitwi na tati gwakuwi.
3 so also we, when we were babes, under the elements of the world were in servitude,
Ntambu iraa ayi twenga patuweriti handa twankali wana wadidini tuweriti wamanda wa vintu vyaviwera na uwezu vyavikolamlima pasipanu.
4 and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,
Kumbiti shipindi shilii shashitulitwi pashisokiti, Mlungu kamtumiti mwana gwakuwi yakayiwukiti kwa mdala, yomberi kiwukiti pasi pa Malagaliru Mlungu gakamupananiti Musa,
5 that those under law he may redeem, that the adoption of sons we may receive;
kapati kuwalopoziya wantu woseri yawawera pasi pa Malagaliru, su tupati kutendwa wana wa Mlungu.
6 and because ye are sons, God did send forth the spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, 'Abba, Father!'
Toziya vinu mwenga mwawana wakuwi, Mlungu kamtumiti Rohu gwa Mwana gwakuwi mumyoyu mwenu, Rohu yakashema “Aba” mana yakuwi “Tati.”
7 so that thou art no more a servant, but a son, and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.
Su gwenga gwa mumanda ndiri kayi, kumbiti gwamwana na gwenga paguwera mwana, su haguwanki goseri Mlungu gakawatuliriti wana wakuwi.
8 But then, indeed, not having known God, ye were in servitude to those not by nature gods,
Makashu pamumumaniti ndiri Mlungu, muweriti wamanda wa vilii vyaviwera ndiri milungu nakaka.
9 and now, having known God — and rather being known by God — how turn ye again unto the weak and poor elements to which anew ye desire to be in servitude?
Kumbiti vinu mumumana Mlungu ama nongi mumanikana na Mlungu, iwera hashi mwankuviwuyira vintu legilegi na vyavihera shintu, vintu vilii vyavikolamlima pasipanu, kwa vintu avi mfira kuwera wamanda kayi?
10 days ye observe, and months, and times, and years!
Mwenga mwankali mwankugakola nentu mashaka na myezi na vipindi vya vinja na vinja!
11 I am afraid of you, lest in vain I did labour toward you.
Neni ntira kuusu mwenga, pamonga lihengu lyantenditi kwa mwenga lyagamira hera.
12 Become as I [am] — because I also [am] as ye brethren, I beseech you; to me ye did no hurt,
Walongu wangu, nuwahiga muweri gambira neni, toziya neni wera gambira mwenga. Muntendera ndiri shidoda shoseri.
13 and ye have known that through infirmity of the flesh I did proclaim good news to you at the first,
Mwenga muvimana kuwera toziya ya ulweli wangu, neni mpatiti lupenu lwa kuwera na mwenga na kuwabwelera Shisoweru Shiwagira kwa mala ya kwanja.
14 and my trial that [is] in my flesh ye did not despise nor reject, but as a messenger of God ye did receive me — as Christ Jesus;
Tembera ulweli wangu uwatuliti mumajeru, mwenga mumbeziyiti ndiri ama kumonera shinyakali. Kumbiti mwenga munankiti gambira neni ndo ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mlungu, gambira neni ndo Kristu Yesu mweni.
15 what then was your happiness? for I testify to you, that if possible, your eyes having plucked out, ye would have given to me;
Ntambu ya nemeleru yamuweriti nayu igenda koshi? Neni weza kupitawulira, shipindi shilii memuwezi kugakolopola masu genu na kumpanani neni.
16 so that your enemy have I become, being true to you?
Hashi, neni nwera mngondu gwenu kwa kuwagambira unakaka?
17 they are zealous for you — [yet] not well, but they wish to shut us out, that for them ye may be zealous;
Wantu walii yawagolokera kuwera mfati Malagaliru, walanguziya handa wankuwashera mwenga, kumbiti nfiru zyawu ziherepa ndiri. Shintu shawafira ndo kuwalekenaziya mwenga na twenga su mpati kuwera kwa womberi.
18 and [it is] good to be zealously regarded, in what is good, at all times, and not only in my being present with you;
Iherepa kuwera na bidii ya kutenda vitwatira viherepa kila shipindi. Neni pawera na mwenga, na shipindi shilii neni pawera ndiri pamuhera na mwenga.
19 my little children, of whom again I travail in birth, till Christ may be formed in you,
Wana wangu! Gambira utama wa kwiwura mwana, neni mpata kayi utama toziya ya mwenga mpaka pamuwera na ntambu ya Kristu mngati mwenu.
20 and I was wishing to be present with you now, and to change my voice, because I am in doubt about you.
Neni menfiri kuwera na mwenga shipindi shilaa ashi, pamonga meng'alambuli liziwu lyangu. Neni nkolwa na lyoga kuusu mwenga!
21 Tell me, ye who are willing to be under law, the law do ye not hear?
Mung'ambiri, mwenga yamufira kukolwamlima na Malagaliru Mlungu gakamupananiti Musa, hashi mwenga muvimana ndiri yagatakula Malagaliru?
22 for it hath been written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the maid-servant, and one by the free-woman,
Toziya ilembwa Mumalembu Mananagala kuwera Aburahamu kaweriti na wana wawili, mwana yumu kiwukiti kwa mawu mmanda na yumonga kiwukiti kwa mawu mlekeziwa.
23 but he who [is] of the maid-servant, according to flesh hath been, and he who [is] of the free-woman, through the promise;
Kumbiti mwana yakayiwukiti kwa mawu mmanda, kiwukiti kwa ntambu ya mafiliru ga muntu, kumbiti mwana ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mawu mlekeziwa, kiwukiti kulawirana na lagilu lya Mlungu.
24 which things are allegorized, for these are the two covenants: one, indeed, from mount Sinai, to servitude bringing forth, which is Hagar;
Vitwatira avi viweriti mfanu wa ujumbi tunga. Toziya wamawu wawili awa wawera ndo mfanu gwa malinganiru mawili. Hajiri, wana wakuwi wayiwukiti muntambu ya umanda. Agu ndo mfanu wa lipatanu lyalitendikiti kulugongu lwa Sinayi.
25 for this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and doth correspond to the Jerusalem that now [is], and is in servitude with her children,
Vinu Hajiri kankulinganiziwa na lugongu lwa Sinayi lwaluwera Arabiya na luwera mfanu gwa lushi lwa vinu lwa Yerusalemu yayiwera vinu muumanda pamuhera na wana wakuwi.
26 and the Jerusalem above is the free-woman, which is mother of us all,
Kumbiti Yerusalemu yayiwera kumpindi yagambira mdala mlekeziwa na yomberi ndo mawu gwetu.
27 for it hath been written, 'Rejoice, O barren, who art not bearing; break forth and cry, thou who art not travailing, because many [are] the children of the desolate — more than of her having the husband.'
Toziya Malembu Mananagala galembwa, “Gunemeleri gwenga yaguwera mpendi, gwenga yagwiwura ndiri! Gubotangi na gutagi lusheka gwenga yagumana ndiri utama wa kwiwura mwana. Toziya wana wa ulii yakalekitwi ndo wavuwa kuliku wana wa ulii yakaweriti na mpalu.”
28 And we, brethren, as Isaac, are children of promise,
Vinu mwenga walongu wangu muwera wana wa lagilu gambira Isaka.
29 but as then he who was born according to the flesh did persecute him according to the spirit, so also now;
Kumbiti handa yayiweriti mashaka galii ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mafiliru ga muntu kamtabisiyiti ulii yakayiwukiti kwa mafiliru ga Rohu wa Mlungu, ndo ntambu yayiwera ata vinu.
30 but what saith the Writing? 'Cast forth the maid-servant and her son, for the son of the maid-servant may not be heir with the son of the free-woman;'
Kumbiti Malembu Mananagala galonga hashi? Galonga, “Gumuwingi mawu mmanda pamuhera na mwana gwakuwi, toziya mwana gwa mmanda hapeni kahali pamuhera na mwana gwa mawu mlekeziwa.”
31 then, brethren, we are not a maid-servant's children, but the free-woman's.
Su walongu wangu, twenga twawana ndiri wa mawu mmanda kumbiti twawana wa mawu mlekeziwa.
