Vagalatia 3
1 vagalatia vajaasu, lwe liso liki ilihosi lino livananginie? pe uKilisite nakavonike hwene mpumuke pa maaso ghinu?
O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified?
2 une ninoghua kukagula ili kuhuma ku lyumue. pe mukamwupile uMhepo kumaghendele gha ndaghilo au kwa kwitikila sila sinomukupile?
This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3 pe umue mulivajaasu ene ndiki? pe mukatengile nu Mhepo neka mumale nu m'bili?
Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh?
4 pe mukapumwike mu nyinga vuvule, ndeve lweli sikale sa vuvule?
Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.
5 pe umwene juno amwumusie uMhepo kulyumue nakuvomba isinya ngufu kulyumue ivomba ku sa ndaghilo au kupulika palikimo nu lwitiko?
He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
6 UAbulahamu “alyale mwitiki kwa Nguluve akavalilue kuuva nyakyang'haani”
Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.
7 mu lula lula mukagule kuuti, vala vano vikwitika ve vaanha va Abulahamu.
Know therefore that they which be of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.
8 ililembe likavonwile kuuti uNguluve ale ikuvavalila ikyang'haani avapanji kusila ja lwitiko. ilivangili likadalikilue kwa Abulahamu taasi: “kukilila uve iisi sooni sikaunyilue”.
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying], In thee shall all the nations be blessed.
9 neka pambele vala avanya lwitiko viise vafunyue palikimo nu Abulahamu, juno akale nu lwitiko.
So then they which be of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.
10 vala vano vihuvila amaghendele gha ndaghilo vali mu lughuno. ulwakuva jilembilue, aghunilue umuunhu ghweni juno naikolana ni sooni sino silembilue mu kilembe kya ndaghilo, kukusivomba sooni.
For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one which continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.
11 lino vwelu kuuti uNguluve naikum'balila ikyang'haani nambe jumo mu ndaghilo kwa kuva unya kyang'haani ikukala ku lwitiko”
Now that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;
12 indaghilo najihumilanila nu lwitiko, neke pe pano “juno ivomba isi mu ndaghilo ikukala mu ndaghilo.
and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.
13 uKilisite alyatupokile usue kuhuma ku lughuno lwa ndaghilo un'siki ghuno akavombikue kuuva lughuno vwimila jitu, ulwakuva jilembilue,” aghunilue umuunhu ghweni juno akovikue kukyanya ja mpiki.”
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
14 uvufumbue vulyale kuuti, ulufunyo luno lulyale kwa Abulahamu lwale lukwisa kuvapanji mwa Kilisite yeesu, neke kuuti twupile uluingo lwa Mhepo kukilila u lwitiko.
that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
15 vanyalukolo nijova mu lwa m'bili nambe pano ulwiting'ano lwa ki muunhu luvikilue kikangafu, nakwale juno iwesia kubenapula nambe kukwongelesia.
Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.
16 lino ulufingo lukajovilue kwa Abulahamu na kukisina kyake. najijova kuuti, “kufisina” kusona vinga looli jumo mwene, “ku kisina kyako” juno ghwe Kilisite.
Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
17 lino niti ndiki, indaghilo jino jikisie amaka 430 pambele, najivusia ulupuling'ahano lwa kunsana luno lukavikilue nu Nguluve.
Now this I say; A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.
18 kwa kuva uvwimilisi vwale vukwisa ku sila ja ndaghilo, navwale vukwisa kange ku sila ja lufingo. neke uNguluve akavuhumisie vuvule kwa Abulahamu ku sila ja lufingo.
For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.
19 kiki lino indaghilo jikahumisivue? jikongelesivue kuhumila mu vuhosi, kuhanga umuholua ghwa Abulahamu ise ku vala vano akafingilue, indaghilo jikavikilue ku kulila avanyMhola ku luvoko lwa juno isambania.
What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; [and it was] ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.
20 lino juno isambania ifumbua kukila umuunhu jumo, looli uNguluve ghwe jumo mwene.
Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one; but God is one.
21 pe lino indaghilo najijova isa mu lufingo lwa Nguluve? na kwekuuti! ulwakuva nave indaghilo jino jikamumisivue jilyale ni ngufu isa kuleta uvwumi, ikyang'ani jale jipatikana ku ndaghilo.
Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.
22 neke peepano ililembe lidindiile sooni mu muvuhosi. uNguluve alyavombile ndiki neke kuuti ulufungo lwake ulwa kutupoka usue ku lwitiko mwa Kilisite Yesu luwesie kupatikana ku vala vano vikumwitika.
Howbeit the scripture hath shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
23 neke ye lukyale kumema ulwitiko lwa Kilisite, tulyadindilue na kuva pasi pa ndaghilo kuhanga lwise ulusyetulilo lwa lwitiko.
But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24 pe lino indaghilo jilyale ghwe mulongosi ghwitu kuhanga uKilisite pano akisilse, neke kuuti, tuvalilue ikyang'ani ku lwitiko.
So that the law hath been our tutor [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 lino ulwakuva ulwitiko lwisile natuli mwa mulolelesi kange.
But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor.
26 ulwakuva umue mweni muli vaanha va Nguluve kukilila ulwitiko mwa Kilisite Yesu.
For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus.
27 mwevoni mwevano mukofughue mwa Kilisite munfwalile u Kilisite,
For as many of you as were baptized into Christ did put on Christ.
28 namkwale umuYahudi nambe umuYunani, umbombi nambe juno na m'bombi, umughosi nambe un'dala, ulwakuva mweni mulivamo mwa Kilisite Yesu.
There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female: for ye all are one [man] in Christ Jesus.
29 nave muli va Kilisite pe nuvuholuo lwa Abulamamu, vapelua kuvutavike vwa lufingo.
And if ye are Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, heirs according to promise.
