Ugalantiyawa 4
1 Ndin bellu nenge andi unan gadue gonari, na adi ugan nin kucin ba, andi amere unan nimone vat.
But I say, that the heir, so long as he is a child, differeth not from a servant, although he is lord of all;
2 Vat nani adi nacara na nan yenju nin na nan dortu ninghe uduru kubi kongo na ucife na ceo.
but he is under supervisors and stewards, until the time established by his father.
3 Arike wang nanere kubi kongo na tiwadi infitu, iwa min nari nan nya licin nadu in yï.
So also we, while we were children, were in subordination under the elements of the world.
4 Nani na kubi wa dak dert Kutellẹ tọ Gono me, unuzu kitin wanni, kumatt nan nyan duka.
But when the consummation of the time arrived, God sent forth his Son; and he was from a woman, and was under the law;
5 Anan se utucu nale na iwa di nan nyan duka, tinan se useru lisosin nafo nono.
that he might redeem them that were under the law; and that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 Bara na anung nonari, Kutellẹ na tü nin Ruhunin Gono me nan nya nibinayi bite, ule na udin yicu ''Abba Ucif.''
And, because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, who crieth, Father, our Father.
7 Bari nani, na udi kucin ba, uso gono, andi udi gono, uso fe unan gaduari unuzu Kutellẹ.
Wherefore, ye are no longer servants, but sons; and if sons, then heirs of God; through Jesus the Messiah.
8 A idutu, na iwadi isa yinno Kutellẹ ba, iwa din licin na lenge na iwa di atellẹ ba sam. Nene na iyinno Kutellẹ.
For then, when ye knew not God, ye served them who in their nature are not gods.
9 Nene na iyinno Kutellẹ, sa negene na Kutellẹ yiru minu, in yaghari nta idin kpilzunu tuyung kiti nimon ile na idi (anfaniba) ba? Idi nin su ikuru i kpilin licin tutungha?
But now, since ye have known God, or rather, have been known by God, ye turn yourselves again to the weak and beggarly elements, and wish again to be under them!
10 Idin dortu among ayiri na ina fere, iceo likot tipui tipese, kubi, nin nakus.
Ye observe days and moons, and set times, and years!
11 In din lanzu fiu nin ghinu, in din lanzu nfong fiu bara uwa da so nafo ndi su katuwa nan ghinu hem.
I am afraid, lest I have labored among you in vain.
12 Ndi minu kucukus linuana, yitan nafo meng, nafo nameng wang nso nafo anughe. Na ina tanni ba,
Be ye like me; because I have been like you.
13 iyiru bara udiru kayiri kidowo nwa su minu ulirun tucu nin kubie na nwa cizin.
My brethren, I beseech you. Ye have not injured me at all. For ye know, that under the infirmity of my flesh, I at first announced the gospel to you;
14 Ile imon nan ina so ujaraba kiti mine unuzu liti ning na ina yassu ba, ana ina niari ba, vat nin nani ina na serui nafo gono kadura Kutellẹ, sa nafo ima seru Kristi Yisa ku.
and the trial in my flesh, ye did not despise nor nauseate: but ye received me as an angel of God, and as Jesus the Messiah.
15 Ani, nene liburi libo mine din we? Bara meng bellin minu fo useri iwa kaluzu ijiji mine wang inayi.
Where then is your blessedness? For I testify of you, that if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes, and have given them to me.
16 Ani nene in ni so udon nivira mins bara na in bellin minu kidegengha?
Have I become an enemy to you, by preaching to you the truth?
17 Inughe na pizuru minu kang a na nimon icine ba. Idi nin su ikosu minu nan mi inan dofino nani.
They are zealous towards you, yet not for good; but they wish to shut you up, that ye may be zealous towards them.
18 Ucaun iyita nin nayi asheu nin likaea kiti nimon icine ko kome kubi na macas meng wa di kiti mine ba.
And it is a good thing to be zealous at all times in good things; and not merely when I am present with you.
19 Nono nin nibebene, ndin niu nin piu nin pazaza bara anughe tutung, sei Kristi nse lisosin nan nya mine!
Ye are my children, of whom I travail in birth again, till the Messiah be formed in you.
20 Ndi nin su nwa yitu ku ligowe nan ghinu kikane nene nkpilla liwui nighe, bara kibinayi nighe non ni ghinu ba.
And I could wish to be now with you, and to change the tone of my voice; because I am astonished at you.
21 Bellen ni anung na idin pizuru uyitu nan nya nduka, na ilanza imon ile na uduken belle ba?
Tell me, ye who desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
22 Nafo na iyerte di au Ibrahim wadi nin nono niba, kirum kitin wani katuwa ngame a kirum kitin wani nilugma.
For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the bondmaid, and one by the free woman.
23 Vat nin woro kin wani kata kilare iwa maru kinin nan nya kidowo, a kinin kin qani nilugme iwa maru kinin unuzu likawali.
But he that was by the bond maid, was born after the flesh; and he that was by the free woman, was by the promise.
24 Ullenge ulirue kuyeli nimon ibari na iwasa ipuno ining kanang. Awani alele abe masin uchiwu nliru ubari, kirum unuzu likup in Sinai. Ulele mara nono licin. ule na amere Hajaratu.
And these are allegorical of the two covenants; the one from mount Sinai, which bringeth forth for bondage, is Hagar.
25 Nengene Hajaratu likup in Sinai yari in Arabiya linnare so nafo Urshalime kitimone, adi nan nya licin nin nono me.
For Hagar is the mount Sinai in Arabia, and correspondeth with the present Jerusalem, and is serving in bondage, she and her children.
26 Nani uni Urshalima ulenge na udi kitene kani na udi licin ba, unnare una bite.
But the Jerusalem above, is the free woman, who is the mother of us.
27 Nafo na iyerte di, ''Ta ayi abo, fe uwani in sali kumat, fe ulenge na una maru ba; Suna kibinayi usanfi uti ntet nayi abo, fe ulenge na uyiru ukonu liburi kumat ba; Bara na nono nnan sali kumate din gbardang, ni katin nin le na adi nin less.
For it is written, Be joyful, thou barren, who bearest not: exult and shout, thou who hast not travailed: for more numerous are the children of the desolate than the children of the married woman.
28 Arik nene, nuwana, nafo Ishaku, nono likawaliari.
Now we, my brethren, like Isaac, are the children of the promise.
29 Nafo na uwadi, ulenge na iwa marughe nan nya kidowo din ti ulenge na ina marughe nan nya Ruhu Kutellẹ aneo, nanere udi wang nene.
And as then, he that was born after the flesh, persecuted him who was born of the Spirit; so also is it now.
30 Uliru Kutellẹ nworo iyaghari? Kọ uwani licine nin gono me. Bara na gono in wani licin bali ugadu ligowe nin wani nilugma ba.
But what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondmaid, and her son; because the son of the bondmaid shall not inherit with the son of the free woman.
31 Bara nani nuwana, na arik nono nwani licinari ba, nani arik na di nonon nwani nilugmari.
So then, my brethren, we are not sons of the bond-woman, but sons of the free woman.
