Wagalatia 1
1 Nene Paulo umbanda sanili mbanda ukhuhuma kuvanu khange ukhugendela kwu munu, une ukhugendele mwa Yesu Klisite nu Nguluve Dada uvya chusi ncha kuhuma kuvufwe.
Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead—
2 Paninie na valokolo lwango voni, nikhugusimbila umpelela gwa Vagalatia.
and all the brothers with me, To the churches of Galatia:
3 Uluhungu luve khulyumwe nu lwidiko ulwihuma kwa Nguluve uDada vitu nuntwa u Yesu Klisite,
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
4 uvyaihumiche mwene khwu nongwa inchito ukhuta atupoke mu myaka igi igya vuvivi, ukhukongana nu lugano lwa Nguluve vetu nu Dada. (aiōn g165)
who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Ni dega ukhuva msyetuka khimbivi kwu livangili ilinge. Nidegi ukhuva msyetukhila kuvutali ukhuma khu mwene uviavilangile khuluhungu lwa Klisite.
I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—
7 Lesikuli ilivangili ilinge, lino kulivange avanu avikhuvalondela isida nukhunugwa ukhunche nyia ilivangili ililivunge nilyu twa va vulile kuhiumwe akhotoliwage.
which is not even a gospel. Evidently some people are troubling you and trying to distort the gospel of Christ.
8 Lakini hata kama ni sisi au malaika mbinguni atatangaza kwenu injili tofauti na ile tuliyoitangaza kwenu, na alaaniwe.
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a curse!
9 Nduvu tuchovile pavutengulilo, khange lino nichova, “Ingave kulimunu ikhuvavula ilivangili ili livunge nilyu mwupilile akhatoliwage.”
As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be under a curse!
10 Ulwa khuva lino nilonda uvwa yilweli vwa vanu au uNguluve? Nilonda ukhuvahovosya avanu? Ingave nikwendelela ukhugela ukhuvahovosya avanu, une sanili mbombi va Klisite.
Am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
11 Valokolo lwango ninogwa umwe mlomanye ukuta ilivangili ilyo ninchova salihoma ku munu.
For I certify to you, brothers, that the gospel I preached was not devised by man.
12 Sanaupilile khu munu khange sana manyesiwe. Lwale luvonekelo lwa Yesu Klisite kyulyune.
I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
13 Mmvile mmupulike imitamile gyango igya kusana udini ya vuyuta, ummuyikhavelile vunikhu ligatancha khuvukali itembile ya Nguluve pakyanya pagelelo nu kuliya ncha.
For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how severely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
14 Une nilikwendelela ni dini ya kiyuta avalokolo lwango vingi vayuta nikhele ne mmaka fincho mmvile gya dada vango.
I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 UNguluve anogolwe ukhung'ala une ukhuhuma mwitumbu mwe mama. Akhanyilanga une ukhugendele mu nduhungu lwa mwene.
But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased
16 Ukhumbonesya unswambe mgati ndyone une nintangasye umwene khuvanu ava panji, khange sanalonde avakunanga khimbili nu nkisa,
to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood,
17 nukutoga ukhuluta khwu Yelusalemu kwu vala uvuvale vavanda une vubadu. Une nikhaluta kyu valabu nu khukilivuka kwu Damesiki.
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles who came before me, but I went into Arabia and later returned to Damascus.
18 Vugilutile immyakha gidatu nikhatoga ukhuluta kwu Yelusalemu kwu ngendela uKefa, nikhatama nave ifigono kumi na tano
Only after three years did I go up to Jerusalem to confer with Cephas, and I stayed with him fifteen days.
19 ukwa sanavavone avavanda avange yumwene uYakobo, ulukololwe va nkolodeva.
But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord’s brother.
20 Lola khuvulongolo kwa Nguluve sanisyova ikyu nikwandika khuliumwe.
I assure you before God that what I am writing to you is no lie.
21 Pu nikhalufa ku mikoa gya Shamu na kwu Kilikia.
Later I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 Sanilikuma nyikhikha kumiho ga tembile iya vayuta ugugale mmumbu Klisite,
I was personally unknown, however, to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
23 valikupulikhe vuvule, “Umwene uvyalikhutu nyanya mikha lino ikhulunchuva ulwidiko lwulwa alikhulu nanga.”
They only heard the account: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”
24 Valikhugina uNguluve.
And they glorified God because of me.
