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

¹ Ya Galatiya borey kaŋ sinda carmay, may no k'araŋ darandi, araŋ kaŋ araŋ moy jine no i cabe taray kwaaray mate kaŋ i na Yesu Almasihu kanji nd'a?

¹O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified?

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

² Woone hinne no ay ga ba ay ma bay araŋ gaa: hala araŋ na Biya* _Hanna|_ ta zama araŋ na asariya* gana se, wala zama se araŋ na sanno kaŋ araŋ maa cimandi?

²This only would I learn from you. Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

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

³ Day araŋ sinda carmay baa kayna no, hal araŋ kaŋ sintin Biya ra, sohõ araŋ goono ga ceeci araŋ ma koy jina ka toonandi araŋ boŋ gaabi ra no?

³Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh?

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

⁴ Wala araŋ na taabi boobo haŋ yaamo no? Da day daahir yaamo no!

⁴Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.

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?

⁵ Irikoy binde goono ga Biya _Hanna|_ no araŋ se, a goono ga dabari goyey te araŋ game ra mo. A goono ga woodin yaŋ te zama araŋ ga asariya gana se no, wala zama araŋ ga sanno kaŋ araŋ maa cimandi se no?

⁵He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

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

⁶ Araŋ ma fongu Ibrahim: «A na Irikoy cimandi, Irikoy mo na woodin lasaabu a se adilitaray.»

⁶Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.

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

⁷ Araŋ ma woone bay mo: borey kaŋ yaŋ ga cimandi, ngey no ga ti Ibrahim izey.

⁷Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

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

⁸ Tawreto Tira jin ka ci ka ne kaŋ Irikoy ga dumi cindey adilandi* _nga jine|_ cimbeeri do. Zama Irikoy na Baaru Hanna waazu Ibrahim se ka ne: «Ni do no ndunnya dumey kulu ga du albarka.»

⁸And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying,] In thee shall all the nations be blessed.

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

⁹ Yaadin gaa borey kaŋ goono ga cimandi, ngey no ga du albarka Ibrahim banda, nga kaŋ na Irikoy cimandi.

⁹So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.

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

¹⁰ Amma borey kulu kaŋ ga naanay asariya goyey gaa, laaliyaŋ kaŋ i boŋ, zama i hantum ka ne: «Laalante no boro kulu kaŋ si mo ye hay kulu kaŋ go hantumante asariya tira ra, ka n'i te mo.»

¹⁰For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.

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

¹¹ Zama woone, taray kwaaray no a go: asariya ganayaŋ si naŋ boro kulu ma ciya adilante Irikoy jine, zama «boro kaŋ ciya adilante _Irikoy jine|_, cimbeeri ra no a ga funa.»

¹¹Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;

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

¹² Amma asariya wo, manti cimbeeri ra no a bara bo. Amma Tawretu* Tira ne: «Boro kaŋ g'i gana, a ga nga baafuna te i ra.»

¹²and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.

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

¹³ Almasihu n'iri fansa asariya laaliyaŋo gaa, za kaŋ a ciya laalante iri sabbay se. Zama a go hantumante: «Laalante no boro kulu kaŋ i sarku bundu gaa.»

¹³Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

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

¹⁴ Woodin te mo hala albarka kaŋ Irikoy no Ibrahim se ma kaa dumi kulu gaa Yesu Almasihu do, hala mo iri ma du Biya _Hanno|_ cimbeeri ra, kaŋ Irikoy jin ka alkawli sambu ka ne nga ga no.

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

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.

¹⁵ Ay nya-izey, ay ga salaŋ araŋ se da haŋ kaŋ bora kulu ga bay: baa alkawli kaŋ ti boro wane, waati kaŋ i n'a daahirandi, boro kulu s'a kaa, boro kulu si tonton a gaa mo.

¹⁵Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man's covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.

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.

¹⁶ Ibrahim da nga banda bora se no Irikoy na alkawlo no. A mana ne: «banda se», danga day boro boobo, amma «ni banda bora», danga banda gaa boro fo no, kaŋ ga ti Almasihu.

¹⁶Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

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.

¹⁷ Woone ay goono ga ci: Irikoy jin ka alkawlo daahirandi. Asariya kaŋ furo jiiri zangu taaci nda waranza banda, a si alkawlo wo ganandi, hal a ma ciya yaamo.

¹⁷Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.

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

¹⁸ Zama nda tubo fun asariya do, a si fun alkawli do. Amma Irikoy n'a no Ibrahim se alkawlo boŋ nga gomno ra.

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

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.

¹⁹ Yaadin gaa, ifo no asariya ga hanse binde? To. Irikoy n'a tonton no hala borey ma faham da haŋ kaŋ ga ti nga miila daaruyaŋ. Asariya wo ma goro mo hala banda bora ma kaa kaŋ se i na alkawlo no. I na asariya samba mo malaykayaŋ banda, sasabandiko fo kambe ra.

¹⁹What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; [and it was] ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

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

²⁰ Sasabandikwa binde, manti boro folloŋ hinne se no a bara. Amma Irikoy ya nga hinne no.

²⁰Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one; but God is one.

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.

²¹ Wala asariya ga gaaba nda Irikoy alkawlo no? Abada! D'i na asariya no kaŋ ga hin ka fundi no, doŋ daahir no adilitaray _Irikoy jine|_ ga bara asariya din ra.

²¹Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.

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

²² Amma Irikoy Tira Hanney ne boro kulu go daabante no zunubi dabaro cire, hal i ma alkawlo no borey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga cimandi se. Alkawlo wo ga ti cimbeeri wane Yesu Almasihu ra.

²²But the scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

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

²³ Amma za cimbeeri mana kaa, iri ya asariya kas'izeyaŋ no. Iri go daabante no hala cimbeeri ga aniya ka bangay.

²³But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

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

²⁴ Yaadin gaa, asariya n'iri gaay danga ize gaayko kala Almasihu kaa, hal iri ma ciya adilante _Irikoy jine|_ cimbeeri ra.

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

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

²⁵ Amma sohõ kaŋ cimbeeri kaa, iri si ize gaaykwa din dabaro cire koyne.

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

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

²⁶ Zama araŋ kulu Irikoy izeyaŋ no, kaŋ to albeeriyaŋ, zama araŋ na Almasihu Yesu cimandi.

²⁶For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus.

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

²⁷ Zama araŋ kulu kaŋ se i na baptisma* te Almasihu ra, araŋ na Almasihu faka.

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

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.

²⁸ Sohõ fayanka si no: da Yahudance no, wala dumi cindey boro no, da bannya no wala burcini no, da alboro no wala wayboro no, zama araŋ kulu afolloŋ no Almasihu Yesu ra.

²⁸There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female; for ye all are one [man] in Christ Jesus.

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

²⁹ Amma d'araŋ ya Almasihu wane yaŋ no, kulu araŋ ya Ibrahim bandayaŋ no, da tubukoyaŋ mo, mate kaŋ alkawlo ci.

²⁹And if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, heirs according to promise.
