Bagalatia 6
1 Bandeko na ngai, soki bokuti moto azali kosala mabe songolo, bino oyo bozali kotambola kolanda Molimo ya Nzambe bozongisa ye na nzela, na boboto nyonso. Kasi sala keba ete yo mpe omekama te.
Brothers, if someone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.
2 Bomemisana mikumba bino na bino; ezali na nzela wana nde bokokokisa mobeko ya Klisto.
Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
3 Soki moto songolo akanisi ete azali moto monene, nzokande azali kaka moto pamba, azali komikosa ye moko.
If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4 Tika ete moko na moko atala malamu misala na ye! Soki akoki komikumisa mpo na yango, akomikumisa mpo na ye moko kaka, kasi mpo na bato mosusu te;
Each one should test his own work. Then he will have reason to boast in himself alone, and not in someone else.
5 pamba te moto na moto akosamba mpo na misala na ye moko.
For each one should carry his own load.
6 Tika ete moto oyo bazali koteya Liloba apesa ndambo ya biloko na ye nyonso epai ya moteyi na ye.
Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word must share in all good things with his instructor.
7 Bomikosa te: Nzambe amitikaka te ete batiola Ye. Oyo moto alonaka, yango nde abukaka.
Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.
8 Moto oyo alonaka mpo na kosepelisa baposa ya bomoto na ye akobuka libebi, moto oyo alonaka mpo na kosepelisa Molimo akobuka bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
9 Tosalaka bolamu; tolembisa nzoto na biso te mpo na yango, pamba te tokobuka mbuma na tango oyo esengeli soki toyiki mpiko.
Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
10 Boye, lokola tozali nanu na tango, tosalaka bolamu mpo na bato nyonso, mpe mingi-mingi mpo na libota ya bandimi.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to the family of faith.
11 Botala ndenge nakomeli bino na makomi ya minene! Nasaleli loboko na ngai moko mpo na kokoma yango.
See what large letters I am using to write to you with my own hand!
12 Bato oyo balingaka koyebana na miso ya bato batindaka bino na makasi kokatisa ngenga, mpo ete banyokola bango te mpo na ekulusu ya Klisto.
Those who want to make a good impression outwardly are trying to compel you to be circumcised. They only do this to avoid persecution for the cross of Christ.
13 Pamba te bango moko bato oyo bakatisaka ngenga batosaka Mobeko te, kasi balingi kaka ete bokatisa ngenga mpo ete bamikumisa na tina na bomoto na bino.
For the circumcised do not even keep the law themselves, yet they want you to be circumcised that they may boast in your flesh.
14 Mpo na ngai, nakomikumisa na eloko mosusu te, longola kaka na ekulusu ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, pamba te ezali na nzela ya ekulusu yango nde mokili ebakamaki mpo na ngai, mpe ngai nabakamaki mpo na mokili.
But as for me, may I never boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15 Ezali te kokatama ngenga to kokatama ngenga te nde ezali na tina; likambo ya tina ezali: kokoma ekelamu ya sika.
For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What counts is a new creation.
16 Tika ete kimia mpe mawa ya Nzambe epesamela bato nyonso oyo bakobanda kotambola kolanda mobeko oyo, mpe epesamela Isalaele ya Nzambe!
Peace and mercy to all who walk by this rule, even to the Israel of God.
17 Kobanda lelo, tika ete moto moko te apesa ngai lisusu pasi na motema, pamba te nazali komema bilembo ya bapota ya Yesu kati na nzoto na ngai.
From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.
18 Bandeko na ngai, tika ete ngolu ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, ezala elongo na molimo na bino! Amen!
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
