< Galesia 5 >
1 Hagi Kraisi'a kinafinti katufe tamente'neanki kina vahekna huta omanita, oti hanavetita nemanita, ete mago'ane kasegemofo kinafina omaniho.
It is in order that we might live without (being obliged [to/having to]) [obey all the Jewish rituals] that Christ freed us [from God condemning us because of our disobeying those rituals]. So, firmly [reject the false teaching that someone must circumcise you, and] do not [live like] slaves again [MET] [by letting others force you to obey those rules and rituals again].
2 Antahiho, Nagra Poli'na amanage hu'na neramasamue, tamagra tamavufgama atresage'za taga huramante'sazana, Kraisi'a tamaza osugahie.
Consider very carefully what I, Paul, [an apostle], now tell you: If, [to fulfill Jewish ritual laws], you are permitting yourself to be circumcised {someone to circumcise you}, what Christ [has done for you] will not benefit you at all.
3 Mago'ane anage nehue, maka zmufama taga hu'naza vahe'mota, maka kasegea amage'antegahaze.
Instead, I solemnly declare again to every man who is circumcised {has someone circumcise him} [in order for God to accept him], that you must [perfectly] obey all of the laws [that God gave Moses, in order for God to save you].
4 Tamagra Anumzamofo avurera kasegefintira fatgo vahera manigahune hutma nehaze. Kraisimpintira ko huramatre'neankita, tamagra Anumzamofo asunku'zampintira evurami'naze.
Those of you who are sure that God will erase the record of your sins because you obey the laws [that God gave to Moses], you have separated yourselves from Christ. You have abandoned/rejected [God’s true method of saving you, which was] by kindly erasing the record of your sins, in a way that you did not deserve.
5 Na'ankure tagra Avamumo taza higeta tamentinti nehuta, fatgo vahere huno hurantesigu amuhara nehune.
But we who have a relationship with Christ and who trust in Christ are eagerly waiting to receive what God’s Spirit assures us that we can expect. We can expect to receive it because God has erased the record of our sins.
6 Na'ankure tamavufa taga hu'nazo, tamavufa taga osunaza zana Kraisimpina amneza me'ne. Hianagi tamentinti nehunkeno anazamo tazeri otigeta, ovesinte avesinte nehuna avu'avazamo razana me'ne.
As for us who have a relationship with Christ Jesus, God is not concerned whether we are circumcised or not circumcised. Instead, God is concerned about whether we trust [in] Christ, with the result that we love [other people].
7 Kotera knare huta tamentintifina tamaga re'nazanagi, iza ru antahintahi tamamino asevazirmantegetma tamage kema amage'ma nentazazana netraze?
You were progressing well [spiritually] [MET]. You should not have let someone influence you so that [now you] are not believing the true [message about Christ] [RHQ]!
8 Hagi anama ru antahintahi tamamino asevazineramantenea vahera, tamagima hu'nea Anumzamo'a huonte'nea vahe'mo nehie.
[God], the one who chose you, is not the one who is persuading you to think like this!
9 Hanki osi'a zisimo'a, flauamofona heruntazageno'a maka azeri zonere.
[Remember that this false doctrine that someone is teaching you will affect all of you, just like] [MET] a little yeast causes all of the dough to swell up.
10 Hanki tamagra Ramofo vahe mani'nazankina, nagra antahi'noe. Nagrama huankea antahinenamitma amagera nentaze. Iza'o ana hazenkema erifore'ma nehia vahe'mo'a ra hazenkefi manigahie.
[Nevertheless], because of my relationship with the Lord, I am certain that you will think only as I do [about forcing people to obey rules and rituals]. Furthermore, [God] will punish anyone who is confusing you [by teaching this false message], even if he is an important person.
11 Hianagi nafuhete, nagrama tamavufgama taga hihogu'ma huamama nehanugeno'a, na'a hige'za nagrira nazeri haviza nehaze? Keka zafamofo kemo'a zmagigo zamitnafa hu havegna nehiazamo'a amanezankna hugahie.
But, my fellow believers, [although someone claims that I am proclaiming that men must be circumcised, I certainly am not still proclaiming that. Remember that the Jews are still] ([persecuting me/causing me to suffer]). If I were still proclaiming that men must be circumcised [in order for God to accept them], (the Jews would not be persecuting me./why would the Jews be persecuting me?) [RHQ] [They would] [RHQ] not be [persecuting me]/causing me to suffer [because] then [the Jews] would no longer be offended. [They] ([are offended/do not want to accept what I teach]) [because I proclaim that Christ, the Messiah, died on] the cross [MTY].
12 Nagri'ma navesiana e'ima hazenkema neramiza naga'mo'za, zamagra oku zamavufagama taga nehu'za, zamagonknazama harisazana knare hugahie.
I [would even] wish that those who are disturbing you [by insisting that men be circumcised] would also emasculate [EUP] themselves, [with the result that they would be expelled from your congregations]!
13 Tamagra nenafugata Anumzamo'ma tamagima hu'neana kinafintira katufeta manisazegegu kea hu'ne. Ru tamagra antahita hago kinafintira katufeta mani'none nehuta, korapa tamarimpamofo avu'ava hanagi, anara osugahaze. Tamagra ovesinte avesinte hu avu'ava zampinti oza aza hiho.
My fellow believers, [God] chose you in order that [you might live] without having to [obey rules and rituals]. But [do not assume that because] you are free [from having to obey rules and rituals], [God] permits you to [do whatever your] self-directed nature [desires]. Instead, constantly, as you love [each other], serve each other.
14 Na'ankure maka kasegemo'a magoke kasegefi eri knare hu'ne, anagemo'a anage hu'ne, Tavaonkare'ma mani'nesamokizmia, kagragu'ma kavesintanaza hunka zamavesintegahane hu'ne. (Lev-Pri 19:18)
Keep in mind that we can sum up all of the laws [that God has] given us in one law, which is: “You must love each person you come in contact with, just like [you love] yourself.”
15 Hianagi tamagra afi zagakafamo hiaza huta, ompri ampri hanutma tamagratami tamazeri haviza hutma fanane hugahazanki kva hiho.
Since you are attacking and injuring [MET] each other [by the things that you say] [MET], I warn you that [if you continue doing that], you will totally ruin each other [spiritually].
16 Hianagi anage hu'na neramasamue, Avamu'ene kama vanoma hanazana, tamavufgamofo avesi'zana amagera ontegahaze.
[So] I tell you this: Constantly let [God’s] Spirit direct you. [If you do that], you will certainly not do the things that your self-directed nature wants [you to do].
17 Na'ankure avufgamofo avesizamo'a, Avamumofo avesizanena ha'rentegeno, Avamumofo avesi'zamo'a avufgamofo avesi'zana ha'renenteankino, amu'nozanifina ha' orente arente'za me'neankita, nazano hunaku'ma hanaza zana osugahaze.
Your self-directed nature (opposes [God’s] Spirit/does not [want you to do what] God’s Spirit [wants you to do]), but also his Spirit opposes your self-directed nature. These two are always (fighting with/opposing) each other. The result is that you do not [constantly] do the [good] deeds that you truly desire [to do].
18 Hianagi tamagrama atresageno Avamumo'ma tamazeri fatgo huno vanigeta, tamagra kasegemofo agorga omanigahaze.
But when you are led by God’s Spirit {when God’s Spirit directs you}, you [can do what pleases God], now that you are no longer obligated [to obey all] the laws [that God gave Moses].
19 Hagi ama tavufgamofo avesi'zana amanahu'za me'negeta negone. Monko avu'avazane, agru osu avu'avazane, havi avu'avazane,
[You already know] how [people think and] act [PRS] because of their self-directed nature. These are [some of the things that they do: People] are sexually immoral. [People] commit unnatural sexual acts. [People] act indecently.
20 havi anumzante mono huntezane, avotga zane, ha' hu'zane, fravazi'zane, kanive re'zane, asi vazi'zane, vaheku agesa ontahi zane, veganokno hu'zane, vahe refko hu'zane,
[People] worship false gods [and] things [that] represent those gods. [People] perform (rituals in order that evil spirits might act for them/sorcery). [People] are hostile [to others. People] quarrel [with each other. People] are (jealous/resent other people’s status). [People] behave angrily. [People] try (to get others to think highly of them/to exalt themselves) and (do not consider what others want/act selfishly). People do not associate [with others. People] associate only with those who agree [with them].
21 rumofo zanku nofi ahe'zane, ti neneno negi ne'zane, atru hu'za ruga'a savri zamofo naneke hu'zane. E'inahukna tavutavazana eri fore nehie. Ko'ma tamasmi'noana meni mago'ene neramasmue. E'inahu zamavu'zmavama nehaza vahe'mo'za Anumzamofo kumapi omanigahaze.
[People] want what others have. [People] get drunk. [People] (revel/participate in wild parties). And [people do other] things like these. I warn you [now], just like I warned [you previously], that the ones [who constantly] act [and think] like that will not receive [what] God [has for his own people when he begins] to rule over us.
22 Hianagi Avamumofo avu'ava zana avesinte'zane muse'zane, rimpa fru'zane, akoheno mani'zane, vahe so'e hunte avu'ava zane, knare avu'ava hu'zane, ke amage'anteno avariri fatgohu avu'avazane,
But [God’s] Spirit causes [us to do these things]: We love [others]. We are joyful. We are peaceful. We are patient. We are kind. We are good. We are [ones whom] others can trust.
23 akoheno fru avu'ava hu'zane, agra'a avesiza kegava huzamofona mago kasegemo'a hara reontegahie.
We are gentle. We control our behavior. There is no law that says people should not [think and act in such ways].
24 Hagi Krais Jisasimpi mani'namo'za, zamufamofo avu'avazane, zmesi'zanena rugeka zafare ahe fri'naze.
Furthermore, we who belong to Christ Jesus have [stopped obeying] our self-directed nature and [stopped doing] all the evil things that we desire to do [MET]. [It is as though] [MET] we nailed them to the cross!
25 Tagrama Ruotge Avamu'enema mani'nesuta, atrenunkeno maka kama vano huzantifina Ruotge Avamu'mo kana taveri huno vanie.
Since [God’s] Spirit has caused us to [be spiritually] alive, we should [conduct our lives the way the] Spirit [directs us].
26 Hanki atrenketa tagra'a tavufga rana nosuta, vahera zamarimpa zamazeri otikea nosuta, kanive orente arente osanune.
We should not be saying how great we are. We should not be making ourselves more important than others. We should not envy each other.
