Agalatiya 5

1 Tuba wani intukuluho ku zwililila kwa Jesu kreste ya va tulukululi. Linu muve vakolete mi sanzi mu wondwa hape kwi joko lya vuvi.

Stand fast therefore in the libertie wherewith Christ hath made vs free, and be not intangled againe with the yoke of bondage.

2 Muvone, Ime, Paulusi niti kwenu haiva ni muya ku mupato, Kreste kese na mihe mupuzo munzila i mwi ne imwi.

Beholde, I Paul say vnto you, that if yee be circumcised, Christ shall profite you nothing.

3 Hape ni paka mukwame zumwi ni zumwi mukwame ya va yendi ku mupato linu uswanela kukuteka ni kwi chilila mulao wonse.

For I testifie againe to euery man, which is circumcised, that he is bound to keepe the whole Lawe.

4 Inwe mukauhenye ku “zwililila” kwa krest. muvonse mu va wani ku shemuviwa cha mulao. Muva wilile kule ni chisemo.

Ye are abolished from Christ: whosoeuer are iustified by the Law, ye are fallen from grace.

5 Kuzwililila ku Luhuho, che ntumelo, linu tulivelele che nsempo ni ku shiyama.

For we through the Spirit waite for the hope of righteousnes through faith.

6 Cha Jesu Kereste nanga cha mupato kapa cha kusaya ku mupato kutolokwa chintu chimwina. Kwande ntumelo iseveza che lato nji yiine tuso.

For in Iesus Christ neither circumcision auaileth any thing, neither vncircumcision, but faith which worketh by loue.

7 Zile mutiya hande. Njeni ya va mizimiki ku kuteka buniti?

Ye did runne well: who did let you, that ye did not obey the trueth?

8 Ku susuwezwa ku tenda vulyo, ka ku zwili kwali uzo ya va misumpi.

It is not the perswasion of him that calleth you.

9 Chi vilisa chi nini chi tende muñende kufunduluka.

A litle leauen doeth leauen the whole lumpe.

10 Ni na nsepo kwenu che Reeza kuti ke se muhupule kusanduka munzila imwi ne imwi. Uzo yo milyanganise u swanela inkatulo ya kwe, iye mwine.

I haue trust in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but hee that troubleth you, shall beare his condemnation, whosoeuer he be.

11 Va kwangu, heva ni ni si kutaza za mupato, chi nzi hani sinyandiswa? Che yo nzila chi sitataliso cha chifano ka chi shinyiwe.

And brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why doe I yet suffer persecution? Then is the slaunder of the crosse abolished.

12 Ni lakaleza avo va mi lyanganisa ka vali kawule avo vene.

Would to God they were euen cut off, which doe disquiet you.

13 Chokuti Ireeza ava misumpi, vakwangu, kwi ntukuluho. Sanzi mu sevelisi intukuluho yenu sina ha mu wanina ze nyama. Ni hakuvavulyo che lato mutusana ha mwina.

For brethren, ye haue bene called vnto libertie: onely vse not your libertie as an occasion vnto the flesh, but by loue serue one another.

14 Chokuti mulawo wonse wi zuzilikizwe cha mulawo wumwina, “Mu swanela kusaka va mu vambene navo sina mu mu lisakila inwe mu vene.”

For all the Lawe is fulfilled in one worde, which is this, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe.

15 Kono heva ni musumana ni kulisana ha mwina, mutokomele kuti ka mu liholofazi ha mwina.

If ye bite and deuoure one another, take heede least ye be consumed one of another.

16 Niti, muyende cha Luhuho, mi ke se mwi zuzilikize intakazo ze nyama.

Then I say, Walke in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lustes of the flesh.

17 Chokuti inyama ine ntakazo nkando yi lwisa Luhuho, mi Luhuho lwine ntakazo nkando kuhite nyama. Chokuti inzi zi lwisanisa izo ziine. Inkalabo yi chokuti ka muwoli kutenda chintu chi mulakaza kutenda.

For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary one to another, so that ye can not doe the same things that ye would.

18 Kono heva Luhuho lu miyendisa, ka musina mwi konde lya mulawo.

And if ye be led by the Spirit, ye are not vnder the Lawe.

19 Linu misevezi ye nyama i bwenekete. Vena vuvuki, vahule, vasa njolwele, ve takazo zihitilize,

Moreouer the workes of the flesh are manifest, which are adulterie, fornication, vncleannes, wantonnes,

20 ni kulapela vazimu, ni vulozi, ni kuli toya, ni kuli fwila muna, ni kuwamba cha kukalimela,

Idolatrie, witchcraft, hatred, debate, emulations, wrath, contentions, seditions, heresies,

21 ne fufa, ni muna ni vundakwa, ni vulyavi, ni zimwi zi fosahele. Ni mi kalimela, sina muni va mi kalimeleli ku tanzi, kuti avo va tundamena izo zintu ke se ni va yole muvuso we Reeza.

Enuie, murthers, drunkennesse, gluttonie, and such like, whereof I tell you before, as I also haue tolde you before, that they which doe such things, shall not inherite the kingdome of God.

22 Linu zichelantu za Luhuho i laato, yi ntavo, inkonzo, inkulo inde, chisemo, vulotu, ni tumelo,

But the fruite of the Spirit is loue, ioye, peace, long suffering, gentlenes, goodnes, fayth,

23 ni kulishuwa ni kuliyeleza. Linu kakwina mulawo ulwisa nisana nezo zintu.

Meekenesse, temperancie: against such there is no lawe.

24 Kwavo vena kwa Jesu Kereste vava kokotelwa ni takanzo ze nyama ni hamwina ni ntakazo zi fosahele.

For they that are Christes, haue crucified the flesh with the affections and the lustes.

25 Heva tu hala cha Luhuho, tu swanela lyaho ku yenda cha Luhuho.

If we liue in the Spirit, let vs also walke in the Spirit.

26 Sanzi tu saki ku vuvekwa ku sene ntuso, kuli shemayeta kapa kuli fwila muna.

Let vs not be desirous of vaine glorie, prouoking one another, enuying one another.
