Galatians 5
1 Nítorí náà, ẹ dúró ṣinṣin nínú òmìnira náà èyí tí Kristi fi sọ wá di òmìnira, kí ẹ má sì ṣe tún fi ọrùn bọ̀ àjàgà ẹrú mọ́.
Christ has set you free with freedom, Therefore stand, and be not again entangled with the yoke of bondage.
2 Kíyèsi i, èmi Paulu ni ó wí fún yín pé, bí a bá kọ yín nílà abẹ́, Kristi kì yóò lérè fún yín ní ohunkóhun.
Behold I Paul say unto you, that, if you may be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 Mo sì tún sọ fún olúkúlùkù ènìyàn tí a kọ ní ilà pé, ó di ajigbèsè láti pa gbogbo òfin mọ́.
And again I witness to every man who is circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law.
4 A ti yà yín kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Kristi, ẹ̀yin tí ń fẹ́ kí a dá yín láre nípa òfin; pé ẹ ti ṣubú kúrò nínú oore-ọ̀fẹ́.
You have been divorced from Christ, whosoever are justified by law: you have fallen from grace.
5 Nítorí nípa Ẹ̀mí àwa ń fi ìgbàgbọ́ dúró de ìrètí òdodo.
For we through the Spirit do await the hope of righteousness through faith.
6 Nítorí nínú Kristi Jesu, ìkọlà kò jẹ́ ohun kan, tàbí àìkọlà; ṣùgbọ́n ìgbàgbọ́ ti ń ṣiṣẹ́ nípa ìfẹ́.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision or uncircumcision avails anything; but faith working through divine love.
7 Ẹ̀yin ti ń sáré dáradára. Ta ni dí yin lọ́wọ́ láti ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí òtítọ́?
You were running well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth?
8 Ìyípadà yìí kò ti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó pè yín wá.
The persuasion is not of the one calling you.
9 Ìwúkàrà díẹ̀ ní í mú gbogbo ìyẹ̀fun wú.
A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
10 Mo ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé sí yín nínú Olúwa pé, ẹ̀yin kì yóò ní èrò ohun mìíràn; ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ń yọ yín lẹ́nu yóò ru ìdájọ́ tirẹ̀, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó wù kí ó jẹ́.
I have confidence in reference to you in the Lord, that you shall be none otherwise minded: but the one troubling you shall bear the judgment, whosoever he may be.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n, ará, bí èmi bá ń wàásù ìkọlà síbẹ̀, kín ni ìdí tí a fi ń ṣe inúnibíni sí mi síbẹ̀? Ǹjẹ́ ìkọ̀sẹ̀ àgbélébùú ti kúrò.
But I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? then the offence of the cross would be done away.
12 Èmi ìbá fẹ́ kí àwọn tí ń yọ yín lẹ́nu tilẹ̀ gé ẹ̀yà ara wọn kan kúrò.
I would that those troubling you shall indeed cut themselves off.
13 Nítorí a ti pè yín sí òmìnira, ará kìkì pé kí ẹ má ṣe lo òmìnira yín bí àǹfààní sípa ti ara, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ máa fi ìfẹ́ sin ọmọnìkejì yín.
For you were called unto liberty, brethren; only use not the liberty unto an occasion to the flesh, but through divine love serve one another.
14 Nítorí pé a kó gbogbo òfin já nínú èyí pé, “Ìwọ fẹ́ ọmọnìkejì rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ara rẹ.”
For the whole law has been fulfilled in one word, in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor with divine love as thyself.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹ̀yin bá ń bu ara yín ṣán, tí ẹ sì ń jẹ ara yín run, ẹ kíyèsára kí ẹ má ṣe pa ara yín run.
But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you may not be consumed one of another.
16 Ǹjẹ́ mo ní, ẹ máa rìn nípa ti Ẹ̀mí, ẹ̀yin kì yóò sì mú ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ti ara ṣẹ.
And I say, Walk about in the Spirit, and do not perfect the lust of carnality.
17 Nítorí ti ara ń ṣe ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ lòdì sí Ẹ̀mí, àti Ẹ̀mí lòdì sí ara, àwọn wọ̀nyí sì lòdì sí ara wọn; kí ẹ má ba à lè ṣe ohun tí ẹ̀yin ń fẹ́.
For carnality wars against the Spirit, and the Spirit against carnality; for these are antagonistical to one another; so that you may not do the things which you may wish.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n bí a bá ń ti ọwọ́ Ẹ̀mí ṣamọ̀nà yín, ẹ̀yin kò sí lábẹ́ òfin.
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.
19 Ǹjẹ́ àwọn iṣẹ́ tí ara farahàn, tí í ṣe wọ̀nyí; panṣágà, àgbèrè, ìwà èérí, wọ̀bìà,
But the works of carnality are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, debauchery,
20 Ìbọ̀rìṣà, oṣó, ìkórìíra, ìjà, ìlara, ìbínú, ìmọ-tara-ẹni nìkan, ìyapa, ẹ̀kọ́ òdì.
idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, animosities, selfseekings, divisions, heresies,
21 Àrankàn, ìpànìyàn, ìmutípara, ìréde òru, àti irú ìwọ̀nyí; àwọn ohun tí mo ń wí fún yín tẹ́lẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti wí fún yín tẹ́lẹ̀ rí pé, àwọn tí ń ṣe nǹkan báwọ̀nyí kì yóò jogún ìjọba Ọlọ́run.
envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and things like unto these: which I tell you beforehand, as I did previously say to you, that those doing such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n èso ti Ẹ̀mí ni ìfẹ́, ayọ̀, àlàáfíà, ìpamọ́ra, ìwà pẹ̀lẹ́, ìṣoore, ìgbàgbọ́,
But the fruit of the Spirit is divine love, joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,
23 ìwà tútù, àti ìkóra-ẹni níjanu, òfin kan kò lòdì sí irú wọ̀nyí,
meekness, holiness; against such things there is no law.
24 Àwọn tí í ṣe ti Kristi Jesu ti kan ara wọn mọ́ àgbélébùú pẹ̀lú ìfẹ́ àti ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀.
But those belonging to Christ Jesus have crucified carnality with the passions and lusts.
25 Bí àwa bá wà láààyè sípa ti Ẹ̀mí, ẹ jẹ́ kí a sì máa rìn nípa ti Ẹ̀mí.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí a máa ṣe ògo asán, kí a má mú ọmọnìkejì wa bínú, kí a má ṣe ìlara ọmọnìkejì wa.
Let us not be fond of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
