Ugalantiyawa 3
1 Anung anan Galantiyawa alalang, ghari na su minu tikanci? Anung na iwa bana Yisa Kristi ku niyizi mine kitene kucha, ikotinghe tikusa niyizi mine?
O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
2 Ilelere cas in di nin su iyininin kitimine. Ina seru uruhe nan nya dortu dukaria sa bara uyinnu nin nilemmon na ina lanzari?
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 Idi alala kan naniya? Ina cizin nan nya nruhu inani ma malzunu nan nya kidowa?
Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
4 Ina sono uniu nin nimon gbardang nani hemma, andi nanere hemmaria?
Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
5 Andi nanere ame ule na adin nizu minu uruhue, amini din su katuwa nakara nan nya mine, unuzun ndortun ndukaria sa unuzun in lanzu lirun yinnu sa uyenuari?
Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
6 Nafo na Ibrahim “wa yinnin nin Kutellẹ, inani wa batizaghe mun nafo fiu Kutellẹ.”
So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7 Nene nuwana, yinnon ale na iyinna nonon Ibrahimari.
Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
8 Ulirue di ina malu uyinnu Kutellẹ ma su anan salin dortume ushara nnuzu yinnu sa uyenu minere. Ina belli ulirun tuchun nnuzun Ibrahimme uworsu nenge, “Kitifere vat anan salin yiru Kutellẹ ima ti nani nmari.”
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 Nanere ale na ina yinnin sa uyenu idi nin mari nin Ibrahim, ana yinnin sa uyenu.
So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10 Ngbardang na lenge na idin su katuwa nshara nin kidowo imase ula'ana. Bara ina yertin “Unan la'anari unit ule na adi su vat nimon ile na ina nyertin nan nya niyerte nduka ba.”
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 Nene udi kanan na Kutellẹ ma ti umong se usurtu bara uduka ba, “Bara unit ulau mati ulai unuzun yinnu sa uyeneri.”
Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12 Na uduka di unuzun yinnu sa uyenuari ba, una di, “Ule na adin dortu uduke mati ulai nan nya duke.”
The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
13 Kristi na seru nari nan nya kitin lla'ana nduka na ame wa so ula'ana bara arik, na ina nyertin, “Vat in nit ule na ibanaghe kucha unan la'anari.”
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 finu nlire wadi alumai ban se nmari unuzun nan nya Kristi Yisa, bara tinan se userun likawali nruhu unuzun yinnu sa uyenu.
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 Linuana, idin liru nafo anit. Andi ma unitari na tti nsue, asa iwutu kimal nin na unan sakue dukuba a na unan kpinu ma duku ba.
Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
16 Nene usunu nnuwe iwa belli Ibrahim ku nin kuwunu me. Na iwa woro “awunuari ba” nafo adi gbardang, kunin kurumari cas, “nani udu kuwunu fe,” kristiari une di.
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 Nene in din bellu usunu nnuwe na Kutellẹ na malu wutu kimale na ana musuzu unin nin duka ule na uwa dak kimal nakus akalt anas nin nakut atat ba.
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 Andi ugadue wa dak unuzu kitin ndukari, uso na unuzu kitin nsunun nuwari ba. Bara Kutellẹ na ni unin tọp kitin Ibrahim unuzun nsunun nnu.
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 Bari iyaghari inani? Inan kpiku bara ukaluzun liru, se kuwunu kon go na ina sun kunin unuwe nda kiti nale na ina sun nani unuwe, iwa cizin katuwa nin duke kiti na nan kadura Kutellẹ kiti nacaran nnan piru kitik.
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 Nene na unan piru kitike unit urumari ba, Vat nani Kutellẹ kurumari.
A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
21 Nane uduka din serzu tikot nin sunu tinu Kutellẹ? Na nanere ba! Andi iwa ni uduka ule na uwasa una ulai, kidegen fiu Kutellẹ wa dak unuzun dukari une.
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 Vat nani uliru ulau in yatca imon vat nan nya kulapi. Nani usunun nnu Kutellẹ nworu a tucu nari nnuzu in yinnu sa uyenu nan nya Yisa Kristi iwa ni alẹ na iwa yinnin.
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 A uyinnu sa uyenu nin Kristi dutusa udak, iwa yachu i nyeshe nari nin duka udu kubin nutunu in yinnu sa uyenue.
Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
24 Uduke uni waso unan rissu nari udo mun kitin Kristi, tinan se usurtu unuzun yinnu sa uyenu.
So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 Nene na uyinnu sa uyenu na dak, nati du nworu irissu nari ba.
Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
26 Bara anung vat nono Kutellari unuzu in yinnu sa uyenu nan nya Kristi Yisa.
You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27 Vat ligan nalẹ na ina shintu minu nmyen nan nya Kristi, ina shon atimine nan nya Kristi.
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28 Na ku Yahudawa duku ba ana ku Helenawa ba, na kucin dukuba, a na usaun ba, na kilime sa kishono ba, vat mine arumer nan nya Kristi Yisa.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 Andi anung anit in Kristiari, iso kuwunun Ibrahimari une, anan lin gadu unuzun sunnun nü
And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
