Wagalatia 3
1 Bhagalatia bhajinga, lihu leleku la uovu lalibhahalibu? Je Yesu Kristu alasibhu lepi katya msulubibwa palongolo pa mihu gha yhomo?
O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
2 Nene nilonda tu kumanya ele kuhomela kwa muenga. Je mwapokili Roho kwa matendo gha Sheria au ndo mwaamini kela kamwapeliki?
I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
3 Ko, muenga ni bhajinga kiasi ekhe? ko mwayandili mu Roho ili mmalai mu mbhele?
Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
4 Ko mwatesiki kwa mambo mingi mebhwa, katya kueli ghayele gha mebhwa?
Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
5 Ko muene yaipisya Roho kwa muenga ni kubhomba matendo gha nghofo kwa yhomo iketa kwa matendo gha sheria au kwa kup'etela pamonga ni imani?
Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
6 Abraham “Amwamini K'yara ahesabibhu kujo mwenye haki”.
So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7 Kwa namna yela yela muyelewahi ya ndabha, bhala bhabhiamini yakuwa ni bhana bha Abraham.
Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
8 Liyandiku latabilibhu yakuwa K'yara ngabhahesabili haki bhanu bha mataifa kwa njela ya imani. Injili yahubilibhu hosi kwa Abraham:”Kwa bhebhe mataifa ghoa ghibalikibhwa”.
The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
9 Ili kabhele bhabhayele niimani bhabalikibhuayi pamonga ni Abraham, yaayele ni imani.
So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10 Bhala bhoa bhabhitegemela matendo gha sheria bhayele pasi mu laana. Kwa ndabha iyandikibhu, “Alanibhu kila munu yaishikamanahee ni mambo ghoa ghaghayandikibhu mukitabu ka sheria, kughabhomba ghoa.”
All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
11 Henu ndo bhuasi yakuwa K'yara akamwesabilahee haki hata immonga musheria, kwa ndabha, “Yaayele ni haki alaishi ki imani”
Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12 Sheria yihomelahe ni imani, Badala yaki “Yaifwanyai mambo agha kup'etela sheria, alaishi kisheria”.
The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
13 istu atukombhuili tete kuhomela mu laana ya sheria yapayafwanyikai laana kwajia yhoto. Kwa ndabha iyandikibhu, “Alanibhuayi” kila munu yaibinai munani mulibehe.”
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
14 Lilengo layele ya ndabha, baraka ambasyo sasa yele kwa Ibrahimu ngasaidai kwa bhanu bhamataifa kup'etela Yesu Kristu, yakuwa tubhwesyai kuyhopa ahadi ya Roho kup'etela imani.
He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
15 Ndongo, nikabhajobhela na kibinadamu. Kabhele magono ambapo agano la kibinadamu palimalikai kubhekibhwa imara, ayelepi yaibhwesyai kupuuza au kuyongesela.
Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
16 Henu ahadi sajobhibhu kwa Ibrahimu ni kizazikya muene. Yijobhahee, “Kwa vizazi,” kumaanisya bhingi, badala yaki kwa mmonga yumuene, “Kwa kizazi kyako,” ambaye ndo Kristu.
The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
17 Henu nijobha nah, sheria ya yahidili miaka 430 badaye, yibhosya lepi agano la kunyuma lalibheki bhusima ni K'yara.
What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
18 Yandabha kujo ulisi ngawahidili ki njela ya sheria, ngaiyelepi kabhele kuhida kwa njela ya ahadi. Ndabha K'yara apisili mebhwa kwa Ibrahimu kwa njela ya ahadi.
For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
19 Kwandayakiki henu sheria yapisibhu? Yayongisibhu ndabha ya makosa, mpaka mzao wa Ibrahimu ulota kwa bhala ambabho kwa bhene amalili kuhaidibhwa. Sheria yabhekibhu ki shinikizo kup'etela malaika kwa kibhoko Kya kupatanisya.
Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
20 Henu mpatanishi imaanisya zaidi ya munu mmonga, ndo K'yara yumuene.
A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
21 Kwa ele ko sheria iyele kinyume ni ahadi sa K'yara? La hasha! kwa ndabha sheria yaiyele ipisibhu iyele ni ubhueso wa kuleta usima, haki ngaipatikene kwa sheria.
Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
22 Badala yaki, liyandiku lifungili mambo ghoa pasi mu thambi. K'yara aketili naa ili ya ndabha ahadi ya muene ya kutookola tete kwa imani kup'etela Yesu Kristu lbhuesyai kupatikana kwa bhala bhabhiamini.
But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
23 Kabula ya imani ya Kristu kuhida, twayele tufungibhu ni kuya pasi pa sheria hadi pawihidai ufunuo was imani.
Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
24 Kwa ele sheria yafwanyiki kwa kiongozi wa yhoto hadi Kristu pahaaidayi, ndabha tuhesabibhuayi mu haki ni mwimani.
So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 Henu yandabha imani ihidili, tuyelepi kabhele pasi pabha angalizi.
Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
26 Kwa ndabha muenga mwabhoa ndo bhana bha K'yara kup'etela imani ni Kristu Yesu.
You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27 Mwabhoa bhambatizibhu kup'etela Kristu mmjifwekili Kristu.
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28 Ayelepi Myaudi wala Myunani, n'tumwa wala huru, bhagosi wala bhadala, kwandabha muenga mwabhoa n'do bhamonga kup'etela Kristu Yesu.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 Kama muenga ndo bha Kristu, basi ndo uzao wa Ibrahimu, bharithi mu jibu wa ahadi.
And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
