Galasian 3
1 Nonu Galasian nyiposoyo vdwv! Yvvla nonua tago hilwknv? Jisu kristo gv dapolo sinam am nonu nyik kaagialo ribwngching rungbv mimbwk minlo jidu!
O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
2 Soogv aba baangv sum nga minji kaatoka: nonu Pwknvyarnv gv Darwknv Dow am Pvbv lo oguaingbv mimpvdw oogv rikulo paapv nvri vmalo gamlv tvvkulo okv oogv mvngjwng kolo paapv nvri?
I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
3 Nonu oguaingbv nyiposoyo bv rila ridu! Nonu Pwknvyarnv gv Dow lokv rirap tokuka; Nonu vjak atubogv jwkrw lokv ringam kunvpv mvngdure?
Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
4 Nonugv hingkwkakwnam mvnwng ngv ogubvka anyung kaaku madu ai? Jvjvbv vv anyung doonv gobv rirung pvnvpv!
Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
5 Pwknvyarnv gv Dowa jitola okv nonugv pingkolo lamrwpadubv kudungkua rimu namv ogulvgavbolo nonuno pvbv mvngkulo riku lokvre vmalo ogulvgavbolo gamlv am tvvto la okv mvngjwng kolore?
Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
6 Abrahamnyi mvngka tvka; Darwknv kitap vbv mindu, “Hv Pwknvyarnvnyi mvngjwngto, okv ogulvgavbolo ninyigv mvngjwng nam lokv Pwknvyarnv ninyia tarwkbak nvbv laarwk sitoku.”
So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7 No mvngdin rungdubv ridu, vbvrikunamv, yvvgv nyi vv mvngjwng la doodunv vv Abraham gv jvjvrungnv husi ngv.
Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
8 Pwknvyarnvnyi mvngjwng nam lokv Jentail vdwka tarwkbak bv ninyigv rikulo riming gvmure vla Darwknv kitap vv mincho jito. Okv vbvrikunamv Darwknv kitap vv Abrahamnyi alvnv yunying nga japgoto: “Pwknvyarnv noogv lokv nyi mvnwng nga boktalwkjire.”
The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
9 Abraham mvngjwng to okv boktalwkji toku; vkvlvgabv ninyia apiabv yvvdw mvngjwng dudw oogv mvnwng nga boktalwkji duku.
So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10 Oogv yvvdw Pvbv mingkulo tvvla mvngging la ridunv vv beenam aralo doodunv. Holvgabv Darwknv kitap vbv mindu, “yvvbunudw Pvbv kitap lo lvknam dvdv ngam tvvmabv ribv kidunv vv Pwknvyarnv gv beenam aralo doodu!”
All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
11 Vjakdv, Pvbwngvrwngbv mila dunv Pvbv mingkulo doojvdakjvka Pwknvyarnv gv ara lo yvvka tarwkbak bv dooladakla ma, ogulvgavbolo Darwknv kitap vbv mindu, “mvngjwng nam lokv nyi ngv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv turladakladu.”
Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12 Vbvritola mvngjwng nam si Pvbv lo ogugo risvkaya madu, vbvmayabv Darwknv kitap vbv mindu, “yvvdw Pvbv gv minam dvdv ngam tvvla ridudw vv turre vtoku.”
The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
13 Vbvritola ngonu lvgabv oogv Pvbv lokv laalwkla beenamgo aatv kunv nga Kristo oogv beenam lokv ngonua ringlin toku; Holvgabv Darwknv kitap vbv mindu, “yvvdw singnv lo pagin tvla hoksar sidudw vv Pwknvyarnv gv beenam lo doodunv.”
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
14 Kristo gv svbv rinamv Abraham gvlo Pwknvyarnv gv boktalwkji nvpv vla milvpvvnam am Jisu kristo gv lokv Jentail vdwaka jidubv vla rito, vkvlvgabv ngonu mvngjwng lokv Pwknvyarnv gv milvpvvnam Dow am laarwk siladunv.
He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
15 Ngoogv ajin vdwv, ngo aludwkibv mingging nvnam ako miring nvvtv dunv: Nyi anyigo kudungkua go omkvpakv vmisila okv umkvpakv vnam am mvrwmvu tokula, yvvka um mvyak nyola madubv vmajvka ogugo mvpwng laka rimadubv vtoku.
Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
16 Vjak, Pwknvyarnv ninyigv milvpvvnam am Abraham nyila okv ninyigv husi lo dosit sinv nga mvpvripv jitoku. Darwknv kitap lo “husi” vla minam v chinggo nyi am mima dunv, vbvritola “husi,” vnamv akin mvngchik am miming dunv, Aminv, Kristo.
The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
17 Ngo mintv gvdunv si Abraham gv lvkobv Pwknvyarnv gv mingkimiyak namgo mvtoku okv milvpvvmisila vvpvtoku. Pvbv jikunamv anying lvngpi gula chaom gobv riro koching bvku, oogv Pwknvyarnv gv mingkimiyakla okv milv pvvmisikunam um yvvka mvyakmvchak lamare okv kayu lanyuka mare.
What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
18 Ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv gv amin jinamv Pvbv lo doodubolo vbvrikubolo ninyigv milvkunam lo vdwloka duku mare. Vbvrijvka Pwknvyarnv oogv amina ninyigv milvkunam lokv Abrahamnyi jitoku.
For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
19 Vbvrikunamv, Pvbv doonam gv anyung ngv oguvdw? Rimur rikor am kaatam nvdubv um jitoku, okv Abraham gv husi oogv milvpvvkunamv aama lo gobv soogv Pvbv si doobvre. Pvbv nga nyidogindung vdwv nyitampingko gvlo laklwk toku.
Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
20 Vbvritola vdwlo nyidum akin mvngchikv ridungbv riredw hoka gindung gv rilwkdolwk jiku kaama, okv Pwknvyarnv akinnv risure.
A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
21 Svbv rinam si Pwknvyarnv gv milvpvvnam am nyiru minsu nambv riduai? Maa, vbvma! Holvgabv nyi vv turnam am jinv Pvbv nga laarwk sinv gubolo, vbvrikubolo nyi mvnwng ngv mingkubv vngku lokv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv dooladakla dunvpv.
Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
22 Vbvritola Darwknv kitap vbv mindu nyiamooku mvnwng gv nyi ngv rimur gv jwkrw arwng lo donyadaknyadu vla mindu; okv vkvlvgabv Pwknvyarnv gv milvpvvnam um yvvdw Jisu kristonyi mvngjwng la dooredw holvgabv jilwk jireku.
But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
23 Vbvritola kvvlo gv mvngtin namv dooma dvrilo, Pvbv ngv ngonua patwk arwnglo soogv aarinvgv mvngjwng nga kaatam rungla rema dvdvlo gobv tomla ritoku.
Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
24 Okv vbvrinamv Kristo gv aama daadw gobv Pvbv ngv ngonua kaayataya toku, vkvlvgavbolo mvngjwngnam lokv ngonu Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak dukubv vla.
So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 Vjak mvngjwng ngv ngonu lo dookunam lvgabv, Pvbv ngv ngonua rigv nyoku madu.
Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
26 Si mvngtin sila rikunam lokv nonu mvnwng ngv Jisu Kristo gv akin gobv rilaku Pwknvyarnv gv umvuu bv ridukunv.
You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27 Nonu vdwv Jisu Kristo gv akin gobv rinam lokv baptisma laato kubvdw, okv vjak no anwnv vji koonam aingbvku, Kristo ninyigv turnama nonuno vjibv koodu kunv.
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28 Vkvlvgabv hoka Jius vla Jentail ngv ogu angusinv yago kaama, okv nyira gvla ajarabi kunv nyi vdwgv pingko svngv lo okv nyilo gvla nyimv vdwgv pingko svngv lo ogu angusinv yago kaama dunv; nonu mvnwng ngv Jisu Kristo gvbv akin vkula.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 Nonu mvnwng ngv Kristo gvbv ridu kubolo, vbvrikunamv Abraham gv singsit vkula okv Pwknvyarnv gv ogugo milvpvvji kubvdw um laarwk siji kunv ngv.
And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
