Galatians 5
1 Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Kristu akatisunungura kuti tive vakasununguka. Zvino, mirai nesimba, murege kuzviremedza zvakare nejoko routapwa.
2 Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.
Batai mashoko angu! Ini, Pauro, ndinokuudzai kuti kana muchidzingiswa, Kristu haachakosheswi kwamuri napaduku.
3 Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
Uyezve, ndinotaura kumunhu wose anoda kudzingiswa kuti anofanira kuteerera murayiro wose.
4 You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.
Imi munoedza kururamisirwa nomurayiro makaparadzaniswa naKristu; makabva panyasha.
5 For we through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.
Asi nokutenda tinoshinga kwazvo kumirira kururama, kunova ndiko kwatine tariro nako kubudikidza noMweya.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision amounts to anything, but faith working through love.
Nokuti muna Kristu Jesu kudzingiswa kana kusadzingiswa hazvina maturo. Chinhu chinokosha chete ndiko kutenda kunozviratidza kubudikidza norudo.
7 You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should not obey the truth?
Makanga muchimhanya nhangemutange yakanaka. Ndianiko akakudzivisai uye akakukonesai kuteerera chokwadi?
8 This persuasion is not from him who calls you.
Kugombedzera ikoko hakuna kubva kuna iye anokudanai.
9 A little yeast grows through the whole lump.
Mbiriso shoma inovirisa chikanyiwa chose chakakanyiwa.
10 I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will think no other way. But he who troubles you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.
Ndinovimba muna She kuti hamuchazogamuchiri dzimwe pfungwa. Iyeye anokunyonganisai achazviripira mhaka yake, angava ani zvake.
11 But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.
Hama dzangu, kana ndichiri kuparidza nezvokudzingiswa, ko, ndichiri kutambudzirwei hangu? Naizvozvo kugumbusa kwomuchinjikwa kwabviswa.
12 I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off.
Kana vari vaya vanokukuchidzirai, ndaida hangu kuti vazvigure zvinhu zvavo.
13 For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don’t use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.
Imi, hama dzangu, makadanwa kuti muve vakasununguka. Asi regai kushandisa rusununguko rwenyu munyama; asi shandiranai murudo.
14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
Murayiro wose unobatanidzwa mumurayiro mumwe chete unoti: “Ude wokwako sezvaunozvida iwe.”
15 But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another.
Kana muchiramba muchirumana uye nokudyana, chenjererai kuti murege kuparadzana mumwe nomumwe wenyu.
16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Saka ndinoti, raramai noMweya, uye hamungazofadzi nyama nokuchiva kwayo.
17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.
Nokuti nyama inoshuva zvinopesana noMweya, uye Mweya anopesanawo nezvinoshuviwa nenyama. Izvi zvinorwisana pachazvo, kuti murege kuita zvamunoda.
18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Asi kana muchitungamirirwa noMweya, hamusi pasi pomurayiro.
19 Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness,
Mabasa enyama ndiwo aya: upombwe, tsvina, utere;
20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies,
kunamata zvifananidzo, uroyi, ruvengo, gakava, godo, kutsamwa, kuzvikudza, kuparadzana, dzidziso dzakatsauka
21 envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.
nokugodorana; kudhakwa, kutamba kwakaipa, nezvimwe zvakadaro. Ndinokuyambirai, sezvandakamboita kare kuti avo vana mararamiro iwaya havangagari nhaka youmambo hwaMwari.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,
Asi chibereko choMweya ndirwo rudo, mufaro, rugare, mwoyo murefu, unyoro, kunaka, kutendeka,
23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
kupfava uye kuzvidzora. Hakuna murayiro unopesana nezvizvi.
24 Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.
Avo vari vaKristu Jesu vakaroverera pamuchinjikwa nyama nokuchiva kwayo uye nezvainoshuva.
25 If we live by the Spirit, let’s also walk by the Spirit.
Sezvo tichirarama noMweya, ngatifambei noMweya.
26 Let’s not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another.
Ngatiregei kuzvikudza, tichitsamwisana kana kuchiva zvevamwe.
