< गलाती 5 >
1 स्वतन्त्रताको निम्ति ख्रीष्टले हामीलाई मुक्त गराउनुभएको हो । यसैकारण, स्थिर होओ र फेरि बन्धनको जुवामुनि नपर ।
Stand firm, therefore, in the freedom with which Christ has made us free, and be not held fast again in the yoke of bondage.
2 हेर! म पावल तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि तिमीहरूको खतना भए तापनि ख्रीष्टमा तिमीहरूलाई केही फाइदा हुनेछैन ।
Behold, I Paul say to you, that if you be circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 फेरि, खतना गरिएका सबै मानिसलाई म यो गवाही दिन्छु, कि सबै व्यवस्था पालन गर्न त्यो बाध्य हुन्छ ।
I testify indeed again to every man that is circumcised, that he is bound to do the whole law.
4 जो व्यवस्थाबाट धर्मी ठहराइएका छौ, तिमीहरू ख्रीष्टबाट अलग गरिएका छौ । तिमीहरू अनुग्रहबाट टाढा गएका छौ ।
You that are justified by law, have withdrawn from Christ: you have fallen from grace.
5 किनकि आत्माद्वारा विश्वासबाट हामीले धार्मिकताको आशाको प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका छौँ ।
For we, through the Spirit which we obtain by faith, wait for the hope of righteousness.
6 ख्रीष्ट येशूमा न खतना न बेखतना कुनै मूल्यको हुन्छ । केवल प्रेमद्वारा काम गर्ने विश्वासको मात्र मूल्य हुन्छ ।
For, in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision avails any thing, nor uncircumcision, but faith that works by love.
7 तिमीहरू असल रूपमा दौडिरहेका थियौ । सत्यताको पालन गर्न तिमीहरूलाई कसले रोक्यो?
You were running well; who kept you back from obedience to the truth?
8 यो काम गर्नको निम्ति आएको प्रोत्साहन तिमीहरूलाई बोलाउनुहुने बाटको होइन ।
This readiness to be persuaded is not from him that calls you.
9 थोरै खमिरले पुरै आटाको डल्लोलाई फुलाउँछ ।
A little leaven leavens the whole mass.
10 प्रभुमा म तिमीहरूमा भरोसा गर्दछु, कि तिमीहरूले अर्को तरिकाले विचार गर्दैनौ । तिमीहरूलाई अलमलमा पार्ने जोसुकै भए तापनि त्यसले आफ्नो दण्ड पाउनेछ ।
I have confidence in you through the Lord, that you will cultivate no other disposition: but he that troubles you, who ever he may be, shall bear his condemnation.
11 मेरा भाइहरू हो, यदि म अझै पनि खतनाको प्रचार गर्दछु भने, अझै पनि म किन सताइएको छु? त्यसो हो भनेता क्रुसको बाधा नष्ट हुने थियो ।
But, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? Then, the offense of the cross has ceased.
12 तिमीहरूलाई बहकाउनेहरूले त आफैँलाई नपुङ्सक तुल्याओस् ।
that those who trouble you would even cut themselves off!
13 किनकि मेरा भाइहरू हो, परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई स्वतन्त्रताको निम्ति बोलाउनुभएको छ । आफ्नो स्वतन्त्रतालाई शरीरको निम्ति अवसरको रूपमा मात्र प्रयोग नगर । बरु, प्रेमद्वारा एक अर्कालाई सेवा पुर्याओ ।
For you have been called to freedom, brethren: only use not your freedom as an occasion for the flesh, but become servants to one another, through love.
14 किनकि सारा व्यवस्था एउटै आज्ञामा पुरा हुन्छ, “तिमीहरूले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई आफैँलाई जस्तै प्रेम गर्नुपर्छ ।”
For all the law is fulfilled in one commandment, in this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
15 तर यदि तिमीहरूले एक अर्कालाई टोक्ने र निल्ने गर्छौ भने, ध्यान देओ, तिमीहरू आफैँ एक अर्काबाट नष्ट हुन नपरोस् ।
But if you bite and devour one another, take heed lest you be utterly destroyed by one another.
16 म भन्दछु, आत्माद्वारा हिँड, अनि तिमीहरूले शरीरका अभिलाषाहरूलाई पुरा गर्नेछैनौ ।
I say this: Walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the desires of the flesh.
17 किनकि शरीरका अभिलाषाहरू आत्माको विरुद्धमा हुन्छन्, र आत्माको इच्छा शरीरको विरुद्धमा हुन्छ । किनकि यी एक अर्काका विपरीत हुन्छन् । यसको परिणामचाहिँ यही हो, कि तिमीहरूले गर्न चाहेका कुराहरू तिमीहरूले गर्दैनौ ।
For the desire of the flesh is against the Spirit, and the desire of the Spirit is against flesh; and these are opposed, the one to the other, so that you can not do what you would.
18 तर यदि आत्माले तिमीहरूलाई अगुवाइ गर्नुहुन्छ भने तिमीहरू व्यवस्थाको अधीनमा हुँदैनौ ।
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.
19 शरीरका कामहरू प्रत्यक्ष देख्न सकिने हुन्छन् । ती कामुक अनैतिकता, अपवित्रता, कामवासना,
Now the works of the flesh are well known, and they are these―lewdness, uncleanness, wantonness,
20 मूर्तिपूजा, तन्त्रमन्त्र, दुश्मनी, झैँझगडा, ईर्ष्या, क्रोध, स्वार्थ, फुट, गुटबन्दी,
idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strifes, jealousies, anger, party-spirit, divisions, sects,
21 डाह, पियक्कडपन, मोजमज्जा र अरू यस्तै कुराहरू हुन् । मैले तिमीहरूलाई पहिले पनि चेतावनी दिएझैँ म फेरि चेतावनी दिन्छु, कि जसले यी कुराहरू गर्छन्, तिनीहरू परमेश्वरको राज्यका हकदार हुनेछैनन् ।
envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; with respect to which, I tell you now, as I also told you in times past, that those who practice such things shall riot inherit the kingdom of God.
22 तर पवित्र आत्माका फलचाहिँ प्रेम, आनन्द, शान्ति, धैर्य, दया, भलाइ, विश्वास,
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 नम्रता र संयम हुन् । यी कुराहरूका विरुद्धमा कुनै व्यवस्था छैन ।
meekness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
24 तिनीहरू जो ख्रीष्ट येशूका हुन् उनीहरूले आफ्ना शरीरलाई त्यसका लालसा र दुष्ट अभिलाषाहरूसहित क्रुसमा टाँगेका हुन्छन् ।
Now those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
25 यदि हामी आत्माद्वारा जिउँछौँ भने, हामी आत्माद्वारा नै हिँडौँ ।
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 हामी अहङ्कारी नबनौँ; एक अर्कालाई रिस नउठाऔँ; वा एक अर्काको ईर्ष्या नगरौँ ।
Let us not be vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
