1 Kirist a nu daggal sunu buumi njaam, ngir goreel nu. Kon dëgërleen ci seen ngor te bañ a delluwaat ci njaam.
1Christ has set us free in freedom; stand fast therefore, and be not held again in a yoke of bondage.
2 Dégluleen! Man Pool maa leen koy wax: bu ngeen itteelee xaraf, kon Kirist dootu leen jariñ dara.
2Behold, I, Paul, say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 Te maa ngi dellu di waxaat ne, képp kuy farataal xaraf, fàww nga sàmm lépp lu yoon wi santaane.
3And I witness again to every man [who is] circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law.
4 Yéen ñiy fexee jub fa kanam Yàlla ci kaw sàmm yoon, tàggalikoo ngeen ak Kirist; dëddu ngeen yiwu Yàlla.
4Ye are deprived of all profit from the Christ as separated [from him], as many as are justified by law; ye have fallen from grace.
5 Waaye njub, gi nu Yàlla dencal ëllëg, nu ngi koy séentu ci kaw ngëm ak ci ndimbalu Xelum Yàlla.
5For we, by [the] Spirit, on the principle of faith, await the hope of righteousness.
6 Ndaxte bu nu bokkee ci Kirist Yeesu, xaraf ak bañ a xaraf, dara amu ci solo; li am solo mooy ngëm, giy jëf ci mbëggeel.
6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any force, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.
7 Ni ngeen jógtee woon de baax na! Waaw ku leen dog, ba ngeen bañ a déggal dëgg?
7Ye ran well; who has stopped you that ye should not obey the truth?
8 Li ñu leen xiir jógewul ci Yàlla, mi leen woo.
8The persuasibleness [is] not of him that calls you.
9 Dees na ne: «Tuuti lawiir day tax tooyalu fariñ bépp funki.»
9A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
10 Waaye teewul Boroom bi jox na ma kóolute ci yéen. Biral na ma ne, dingeen bokk ak man xalaat. Léegi nag, kiy nëxal seen xel, ku mu man a doon, Yàlla dina ko mbugal.
10*I* have confidence as to you in [the] Lord, that ye will have no other mind; and he that is troubling you shall bear the guilt [of it], whosoever he may be.
11 Man nag bokk yi, bu ma doon faaydaal xaraf ci sama waare, kon duñu ma fitnaale nii; te it li may yégle ci deewu Kirist ca bant ba dootul naqari kenn.
11But *I*, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? Then the scandal of the cross has been done away.
12 Ñi farataal xaraf te di leen dëpp, nañu gën a sore ci seen réer: bu yaboo sax ñu dagg seen ngóora, ba dara du ci des!
12I would that they would even cut themselves off who throw you into confusion.
13 Yéen nag bokk yi, Yàlla woo na leen, ngeen nekk i gor. Waaye nag buleen ci sukkandiku, bay topp seen nafsu, waaye dimbaleenteleen ci kaw mbëggeel.
13For *ye* have been called to liberty, brethren; only [do] not [turn] liberty into an opportunity to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
14 Ndaxte yoon wépp, ndigal lii a ko tënk: «Nanga bëgg sa moroom, ni nga bëgge sa bopp.»
14For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;
15 Waaye moytuleen! Bu ngeen dee màttante ak a lekkante, dingeen yàqante.
15but if ye bite and devour one another, see that ye are not consumed one of another.
16 Li ma leen di wax mooy lii: dundleen ci Xelum Yàlla, kon dungeen topp seen nafsu.
16But I say, Walk in [the] Spirit, and ye shall no way fulfil flesh's lust.
17 Ndaxte sunu nafsu am na ay bëgg-bëgg yu mengoowul ak yu Xelum Yàlla. Te Xelum Yàlla itam am na ay bëgg-bëgg yu mengoowul ak yu sunu nafsu. Ñoom ñaar dañoo juuyoo ci bépp fànn, ba tax lépp lu ngeen bëggoon a def, dungeen ko man.
17For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are opposed one to the other, that ye should not do those things which ye desire;
18 Waaye bu ngeen toppee Xelum Yàlla, nekkatuleen ci kilifteefu yoon wi.
18but if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under law.
19 Kuy topp sa nafsu, nii ngay jëfe: njaaloo, xalaat yu bon, def i ñaawteef ak say cér,
19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
20 xërëm, luxus, noonoo ak xuloo, ñeetaane, xadar, diiroo mbagg, féewaloo ak xaajaloo,
20idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strifes, jealousies, angers, contentions, disputes, schools of opinion,
21 kiñaan, màndite ak xawaare ak yeneen yu ni mel. Léegi nag maa ngi leen di artu, ni ma ko defe woon: ñiy jëfe noonu duñu am cér ci nguuru Yàlla.
21envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revels, and things like these; as to which I tell you beforehand, even as I also have said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit God's kingdom.
22 Waaye li Xelu Yàlla mi di meññ mooy: mbëggeel, mbég, jàmm, muñ, laabiir, mbaax, kóllëre,
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,
23 lewetaay ak maandute. Yoon wi terewul yu ni mel.
23meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law.
24 Léegi ñi bokk nag ci Yeesu Kirist, daaj nañu seen nafsu ca bant ba, wacc ko fa, moom ak ay xemmemam ak ay bëgg-bëggam.
24But they that [are] of the Christ have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts.
25 Gannaaw nag nu ngi dund léegi ci Xelum Yàlla, kon nanu ko topp.
25If we live by the Spirit, let us walk also by the Spirit.
26 Bu nu tiitaru di dëkkante, di iñaanante.
26Let us not become vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
