¹Oh mõistmatud galaatlased, kes on teid ära sõnunud, teid, kelle silme ette Jeesus Kristus oli joonistatud ristilööduna?

¹Foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you not to obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth among you as crucified?

²Ma tahan teie käest teada ainult seda, kas te saite Vaimu Seaduse tegude tõttu või ususõnumi kuulamise tõttu.

²I just want to learn this from you. Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

³Kas te olete nii mõistmatud? Te alustasite Vaimus, kas tahate nüüd lõpetada lihas?

³Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now completed in the flesh?

⁴Kas te olete ilmaasjata nii palju kogenud? Kui see iialgi võiks olla ilmaasjata!

⁴Did you suffer so many things in vain, if it is indeed in vain?

⁵See, kes nüüd annab teile Vaimu ja laseb imevägedel tegutseda teie sees, kas ta teeb seda Seaduse tegude või ususõnumi kuulamise tõttu?

⁵He therefore who supplies the Spirit to you, and works miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

⁶Nii nagu 'Aabraham uskus Jumalat ja see arvestati talle õiguseks',

⁶Even as Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.”

⁷nii mõistate teie, et need, kes on usust, on Aabrahami lapsed.

⁷Know therefore that those who are of faith, the same are children of Abraham.

⁸Kuna aga Pühakiri nägi ette, et Jumal teeb paganad õigeks usust, siis ta kuulutas ette Aabrahamile rõõmusõnumit: 'Sinus õnnistatakse kõiki paganaid.'

⁸The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Good News beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you all the nations will be blessed.” Genesis 12:3; 18:18; 22:18

⁹Nõnda siis õnnistatakse neid, kes on usust, koos uskliku Aabrahamiga.

⁹So then, those who are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.

¹⁰Kuid kõik need, kes rajavad end Seaduse tegudele, on needuse all, sest on kirjutatud: 'Neetud on igaüks, kes ei püsi kõiges, mis on kirjutatud Seaduse raamatusse, et ta seda täidaks.'

¹⁰For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who doesn’t continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.” Deuteronomy 27:26

¹¹Et aga Seaduse kaudu ei saa ükski õigeks Jumala ees, on ilmne, sest usust õige jääb elama.

¹¹Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, “The righteous will live by faith.” Habakkuk 2:4

¹²Aga Seadus ei ole usust, vaid 'kes seda täidab, jääb elama selle kaudu'.

¹²The law is not of faith, but, “The man who does them will live by them.” Leviticus 18:5

¹³Ent Kristus on meid Seaduse needusest lahti ostnud, kui ta sai needuse meie eest - sest on kirjutatud: 'Neetud on igaüks, kes puu küljes ripub' -,

¹³Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,” Deuteronomy 21:23

¹⁴selleks et Aabrahami õnnistus saaks paganatele osaks Kristuses Jeesuses ja et me tõotatud Vaimu saaksime usu kaudu.

¹⁴that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

¹⁵Vennad, ma toon inimliku näite. Teatavasti ei saa inimese tehtud testamenti keegi tühistada ega sellele midagi juurde lisada.

¹⁵Brothers, speaking of human terms, though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void, or adds to it.

¹⁶Aga tõotused on antud Aabrahamile ja tema soole. Ei öelda: 'Ja sinu sugudele', otsekui paljude kohta, vaid nagu ühe kohta: 'Ja sinu soole', kes on Kristus.

¹⁶Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He doesn’t say, “To seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “To your seed,” Genesis 12:7; 13:15; 24:7 which is Christ.

¹⁷Ma ütlen seda: Jumala poolt varem tehtud testamenti ei saa nelisada kolmkümmend aastat hiljem antud Seadus muuta kehtetuks, nii et see tühistaks tõotuse.

¹⁷Now I say this. A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

¹⁸Sest kui pärand tuleks Seaduse alusel, siis see ei tuleks enam tõotuse alusel; Jumal on aga Aabrahamile armu osutanud tõotusega.

¹⁸For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by promise.

¹⁹Milleks siis Seadus? See on üleastumiste pärast juurde lisatud, kuni tuleb sugu, kelle kohta oli antud tõotus, ja see on seatud inglite kaudu vahendaja käe läbi.

¹⁹What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the seed should come to whom the promise has been made. It was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

²⁰Üksainus ei vaja vahendajat, Jumal on ju üks.

²⁰Now a mediator is not between one, but God is one.

²¹Kas Seadus on siis Jumala tõotuse vastu? Ei mingil juhul! Sest vaid siis, kui oleks antud seadus, mis suudab teha elavaks, tuleks õigus tõepoolest seadusest.

²¹Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.

²²Kuid Pühakiri on kõik oleva allutanud patule, et tõotus antaks neile, kes usuvad, usust Jeesusesse Kristusesse.

²²But the Scriptures imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

²³Aga enne usu tulekut me olime Seaduse valve alla suletud kuni usu ilmumiseni tulevikus.

²³But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

²⁴Nõnda siis on Seadus olnud meie kasvatajaks Kristuse poole, et me saaksime õigeks usust.

²⁴So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

²⁵Aga et usk on tulnud, siis me ei ole enam kasvataja meelevalla all.

²⁵But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

²⁶Nüüd te olete kõik usu kaudu Jumala lapsed Kristuses Jeesuses,

²⁶For you are all children of God, through faith in Christ Jesus.

²⁷sest kõik, kes te olete Kristusesse ristitud, olete Kristusega rõivastatud.

²⁷For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

²⁸Ei ole siin juuti ega kreeklast, ei ole siin orja ega vaba, ei ole siin meest ega naist, sest te kõik olete üks Kristuses Jeesuses.

²⁸There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

²⁹Kui te olete aga Kristuse päralt, siis te olete järelikult Aabrahami sugu ja pärijad tõotuse järgi.

²⁹If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to promise.
