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 do not be burdened again with a yoke of slavery.
2 हेर! म पावल तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि तिमीहरूको खतना भए तापनि ख्रीष्‍टमा तिमीहरूलाई केही फाइदा हुनेछैन ।
Listen! I, Paul, say to you that if you get circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 फेरि, खतना गरिएका सबै मानिसलाई म यो गवाही दिन्छु, कि सबै व्यवस्था पालन गर्न त्यो बाध्य हुन्छ ।
Further, I testify again to every man who gets circumcised that he is obligated to keep the whole law.
4 जो व्यवस्थाबाट धर्मी ठहराइएका छौ, तिमीहरू ख्रीष्‍टबाट अलग गरिएका छौ । तिमीहरू अनुग्रहबाट टाढा गएका छौ ।
You who are ‘being justified’ by law have been alienated from the Christ; you have fallen away from the grace.
5 किनकि आत्माद्वारा विश्‍वासबाट हामीले धार्मिकताको आशाको प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका छौँ ।
For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 ख्रीष्‍ट येशूमा न खतना न बेखतना कुनै मूल्यको हुन्छ । केवल प्रेमद्वारा काम गर्ने विश्‍वासको मात्र मूल्य हुन्छ ।
Because in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.
7 तिमीहरू असल रूपमा दौडिरहेका थियौ । सत्यताको पालन गर्न तिमीहरूलाई कसले रोक्यो?
You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth?
8 यो काम गर्नको निम्ति आएको प्रोत्साहन तिमीहरूलाई बोलाउनुहुने बाटको होइन ।
This persuasion is not from Him who calls you.
9 थोरै खमिरले पुरै आटाको डल्लोलाई फुलाउँछ ।
A little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough.
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 toward you in the Lord that you will not think differently; but he who troubles you will bear the penalty, whoever he may be.
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 I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that event the offense of the cross would have been removed.
12 तिमीहरूलाई बहकाउनेहरूले त आफैँलाई नपुङ्सक तुल्याओस् ।
I do wish that those who are upsetting you would just remove themselves!
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 ।
Now you, brothers, have been called to freedom; only do not use that freedom as an opening for the flesh, but slave for one another through love.
14 किनकि सारा व्यवस्था एउटै आज्ञामा पुरा हुन्छ, “तिमीहरूले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई आफैँलाई जस्तै प्रेम गर्नुपर्छ ।”
For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, namely: “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 tear at each other, beware lest you be consumed by one another!
16 म भन्दछु, आत्माद्वारा हिँड, अनि तिमीहरूले शरीरका अभिलाषाहरूलाई पुरा गर्नेछैनौ ।
I say then: walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust 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 ।
Because the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh; they oppose each other; it follows that you may not do the things that you wish.
18 तर यदि आत्माले तिमीहरूलाई अगुवाइ गर्नुहुन्छ भने तिमीहरू व्यवस्थाको अधीनमा हुँदैनौ ।
However, 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 obvious, namely: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
20 मूर्तिपूजा, तन्‍त्रमन्‍त्र, दुश्मनी, झैँझगडा, ईर्ष्या, क्रोध, स्वार्थ, फुट, गुटबन्दी,
idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, fits of anger, selfish ambition, dissentions, factions,
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, drinking bouts, orgies, and the like; about which I am warning you beforehand, as, in fact, I did before, that those who practice such things will not 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, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 नम्रता र संयम हुन् । यी कुराहरूका विरुद्धमा कुनै व्यवस्था छैन ।
gentleness, self-control—against such things there is no law.
24 तिनीहरू जो ख्रीष्‍ट येशूका हुन् उनीहरूले आफ्ना शरीरलाई त्यसका लालसा र दुष्‍ट अभिलाषाहरूसहित क्रुसमा टाँगेका हुन्छन् ।
Further, those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
25 यदि हामी आत्माद्वारा जिउँछौँ भने, हामी आत्माद्वारा नै हिँडौँ ।
Since we live by the Spirit, let us also conform to the Spirit.
26 हामी अहङ्कारी नबनौँ; एक अर्कालाई रिस नउठाऔँ; वा एक अर्काको ईर्ष्या नगरौँ ।
Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
