< Wagalatia 1 >
1 Nene na Paulo na n'tume. Nene na n'tume lepi kuhomela kwa bhanadamu, ila kup'etela Yesu Kristu ni K'yara Dadi yaamfufuili kuhomela KU wafu.
Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead; )
2 Pamonga ni bhalongo bhangu bhoa ni nene, nikabhayandikila makanisa gha Bhagalatia.
And all the brothers which are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 Neema iyelai kwa yhomo ni amani yayihomela kwa K'yara Dadi wayhoto ni Bwana Yesu Kristu.
Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Yajipisili yumuene kwajia thambi sayhoto ndabha abhuesyakutokombola mu magono agha ghauovu, kup'etela mapenzi ghaki K'yara wayhoto na ni Dadi. (aiōn )
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: (aiōn )
5 Kwa muene uyela utukufu milele na milele. (aiōn )
To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
6 Nishangala ndabha mwigeukila haraka mu injili yhenge. Nishangala kabhele mwigeukila patali kuhomela kwa muene yaabhakutili kwa neema said Kristu.
I marvel that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ to another gospel:
7 Iyelepi injili yhenge, ila bhayele baadhi ya bhanu bhabhilonda kubhasababishila muenga matatisu ni kulonda kubadilisya injili ya kristu.
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 Hata Kama kujobhela tete au malaika kuhomela kumbinguni alatangasya kwa muenga injili yayele tofauti ni yhela yatatangasyai kwa muenga, na alanibhuayi.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed.
9 Katya katajobhai kamuandi, ni henu mjobha kabhele,”Katya ayele munu alabhatangasila kwa muenga injili yaiyele tofauti na ya mwapokili, alanibhuayi”.
As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel to you than that you have received, let him be accursed.
10 Kwani henu nilonda uthibitisho wa bhanu au K'yara? nilonda kubhafulaisya muenga bhanadamu? Katya niyendelela kubhajalibu kubhafulaisya bhanadamu, nene na n'tumishi he wa Kristu.
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11 Ndongo, nilonda muenga mmanyai ya kuwa injili yanatangasili yitokana lepi ni bhanadamu.
But I certify you, brothers, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 Naipokili lepi kuhomela kwa bhanu, wala nafundisibhu lepi. Badala yaki, yayele kwa ufunuo wa Yesu Kristu kwa nene.
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 Mwalili kup'eleka juu ya maisha gha nene gha kunyuma kup'etela dini ya kiyahudi, kanayele kanatesyai kiukali li kanisa la k'yara zaidi ya kiphemu ni kuliteketesya.
For you have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
14 Kanayele niyendelili kup'etela dini ya kiyaudi kuzidi bhalongobhangu bhingi bhayaudi. Nayele ni bidii sana kup'etela mu tamaduni sa bha Dadi bhangu.
And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
15 Ila K'yara apendisibhu kunichagula nene kuhomela mulileme la mabhu. Anikutili nene kup'etela neema sa muene.
But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
16 Kumdhihirisha mwana munu mugati mwa nene, ili yandabha ni mtangasyai muene pamiongoni mwa bhanu bha mataifa. Wala nalondili lepi ushauli wa mbhele ni muasi
To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17 na nakwelili lepi kulota kuyerusalem kwa bhala bhabhayeli mitume kabula ya nene. Badala yake nalotili uarabuni ni kabhele kukelebhuka Damesiki.
Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
18 Kabhele badala ya miaka midatu nakwelili kulota Yerusalem kun'gendela kefa, natamili naku kwa mogono kumi na tano.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
19 Lakini nabhuee mitume bhangi labuda Yakobo, ndongho munu ni Bwana.
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s brother.
20 Langai, palongolo K'yara, nikofyalepi kwa eke kani yandika kwa muenga.
Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.
21 Kabhele nalotili kumikoa ya Shamu ni kilikia.
Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
22 Nama nyikanai lepi kwa mihu kwa makanisa gha uyaudi ghala ghaghayele kup'etela Kristu,
And was unknown by face to the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
23 Ila bhayele bhakipeleka to, “Muene ayele kututesya henu itangasya imani yaya haribuayi”.
But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preaches the faith which once he destroyed.
24 Bhayele kumtukuza K'yara kwajia nene.
And they glorified God in me.
