¹Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),

¹ Man Pool, ndawul Yeesu Kirist --nit falu ma ko, te jaarewul it ci nit, mi ngi jaare ci Yeesu Kirist ak Yàlla Baay, bi ko dekkal —

²and all the brethren that are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:

² man ak bokk yiy ànd ak man yépp, nu ngi leen di bind, yéen mboolooy ñi gëm te dëkk ci diiwaanu Galasi.

³Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

³ Na yiw ak jàmm féete ak yéen, jóge ci Yàlla sunu Baay ak Yeesu Kirist Boroom bi,

⁴who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father:

⁴ moom mi joxe bakkanam ngir dindi sunuy bàkkaar, te musal nu ci àddina su bon, si nu nekk, dëppook coobareg Yàlla sunu Baay,

⁵to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

⁵ bi yelloo ndam ba fàww. Amiin.

⁶I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from him that called you in the grace of Christ unto a different gospel;

⁶ Man de jaaxle naa! Yàlla woo na leen ci boppam jaarale ko ci yiw, wi nu Kirist defal, waaye yéena ngi koy gaawantoo bàyyi, ngir topp beneen xebaar,

⁷which is not another [gospel] only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

⁷ fekk du xebaar bu baax bi. Dafa am rekk ci seen biir ay nit ñiy nëxal xel yi, te bëgg a dandal xebaar bu baax bu Kirist.

⁸But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that which we preached unto you, let him be anathema.

⁸ Waaye su fekkee kenn ci nun ñëw, walla malaaka sax mu jóge asamaan, di yégle beneen xebaar bu mengoowul ak bi nu leen yégal, kooku Yal na alku!

⁹As we have said before, so say I now again, if any man preacheth unto you any gospel other than that which ye received, let him be anathema.

⁹ Wax nanu ko, maa ngi koy waxaat: bu leen kenn yégalee beneen xebaar bu dul bi ngeen nangu, kooku Yal na alku!

¹⁰For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? or am I striving to please men? if I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.

¹⁰ Ndax kon nit laay wut a gëmloo, am damay fexee yey Yàlla? Mbaa damay wut a neex nit ñi? Su ma doon wut a neex nit ñi ba tey, kon duma nekkati jaamu Kirist.

¹¹For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man.

¹¹ Bokk yi, maa ngi leen di xamal ne, xebaar bu baax bi ma yégle, jógewul ci nit.

¹²For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but [it came to me] through revelation of Jesus Christ.

¹² Jëlewuma ko ci nit, te kenn jàngalu ma ko, waaye Yeesu Kirist moo ma ko won.

¹³For ye have heard of my manner of life in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and made havoc of it:

¹³ Dégg ngeen ni ma doon jëfe, bi ma nekkee ci diiney Yawut yi, di fitnaal bu metti mbooloom Yàlla, di ko jéem a tas.

¹⁴and I advanced in the Jews' religion beyond many of mine own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

¹⁴ Bokkoon naa ci ñi gën a farlu ci diiney Yawut yi, te sawar it ci sàrti yoon, yi fi samay maam bàyyi, ba raw sama maas, gi ma bokkal askan.

¹⁵But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me, [even] from my mother's womb, and called me through his grace,

¹⁵ Waaye Yàlla mi ma tànn lu jiitu sama juddu te woo ma ci boppam ci kaw yiwam, bi mu ko soobee, xamal na ma kan mooy Doomam, ngir ma yégal ñi dul Yawut xebaar bu baax bi ci mbirum Kirist; booba nag diisoowuma ci ak kenn.

¹⁶to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; straightway I conferred not with flesh and blood:

¹⁷ Demuma sax Yerusalem seeti ñi ma jëkk a nekk ay ndawi Kirist, waaye réewu Arabi laa dem, te gannaaw loolu ma dellusiwaat Damas.

¹⁷neither went I up to Jerusalem to them that were apostles before me: but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned unto Damascus.

¹⁸ Ba ñu ca tegee ñetti at, ma sog a dem Yerusalem, ngir xamante ak Sefas, dal fa moom lu mat ñaari ayu-bés.

¹⁸Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and tarried with him fifteen days.

¹⁹ Waaye gisuma keneen ci ndaw yi ku dul Saag, doomu ndeyu Boroom bi.

¹⁹But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

²⁰ Lii ma leen di bind nag, Yàllaa may seede ci ne, du ay fen.

²⁰Now touching the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.

²¹ Bi loolu wéyee dem naa réewu Siri ak réewu Silisi.

²¹Then I came unto the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

²² Waaye ba tey mboolooy ñi gëm Kirist ci diiwaanu Yude xamuñu ma woon.

²²And I was still unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:

²³ Dañu déggoon ñu naan rekk ne: «Ki nu daan fitnaal bu jëkk te daan jéem a far yoonu ngëm wi, léegi mi ngi koy yégle!»

²³but they only heard say, He that once persecuted us now preacheth the faith of which he once made havoc;

²⁴ Te ñuy sant Yàlla ci man.

²⁴and they glorified God in me.
