1 Inywe abʼe Galatiya abeebitya ooti bantu abasirusiru, Muli ooti bantu abaloge? Timwewukirya nga nabasonzoleire ni mubona nakusani lwaki oYesu Kurisito bamukomereire oku musalabba. 2 Aale kaamo munkobere kinu, inywe abakoba muti mumaite bingi, mwasunire oMwoyo oMweru lwa kutuukirirya biibyo aMateeka gʼekiyudaaya ebigalagira, ooba lwa kwikirirya Mawuliro aMasa agemwawuliire? 3 Mutaka kubba ooti mubula malabuki? Inywe abatandiikire obwomi bwʼokwikirirya nʼamaani ga Mwoyo oMweru, tete atyanu mutaka mumalirirye nga mwabira ku biseego bya bantu abo abataka mukomole? 4 Nʼokugadya okubabagadirye olwʼokwikirirya oYesu dala mutaka kubbe kwa bwereere? 5 Kaisi oKibbumba abawa oMwoyo oMweru era nakola nʼebyewunyo mwinywe, abikola lwa kubba kiti mutuukirirya biibyo aMateeka ebigalagira, ooba lwa kubba kiti mwawuliire ni mwikirirya aMawuliro aMasa?

6 Museege oku byatuukire oku zeiza waiswe omu kwikirirya, oIbbulaimu. EKiwandiike kikoba kiti, “OIbbulaimu yaikiririirye mwebyo oKibbumba ebiyamusuubizire, nʼolwʼekikole ekyo nʼamubala okubba atuukiriire.” 3:6 Nta 15:6; Lom 4:3 7 Kale mwekyo mumanye muti abantu abaikiririrya omu Kibbumba niibo abaana ba Ibbulaimu. 3:7 Lom 4:16 8 Cooka omu Biwandiike babbaire bamalire okulengera ebyaba okubbaawo omu maiso ni bawandiika bati oKibbumba yalitoolaku aBatali Bayudaaya omusango lwʼokwikirirya kwabwe. Kiri mu Kiwandiike ngʼoKibbumba akobera oIbbulaimu aMawuliro aMasa ati, “Naliwa amawanga gonagona enkabi nga mbita mu baizukulubo.” 3:8 Nta 12:3 9 Ekyo ni kiraga kiti bonabona abali nʼokwikirirya basunira aamo enkabi nʼoIbbulaimu eyabbaire nʼokwikirirya.

10 Waliwo eKiwandiike ekikoba kiti, “Buli atatuukiriryenge amateeka ganu gonagona ngʼowebagawandiikire, yaabbanga ansi wʼekiraami.” Neye tikyezyeka omuntu okutuukirirya amateeka natagotakuumu. Kale bonabona abagezyaku okusuna obutuukirirye nga babita mu kukwata mateeka gʼekiyudaaya babba ansi wʼekiraami. 3:10 Ama 27:26 11 Kiri lwatu kiti mpaawo muntu oKibbumba ogwasiima olwa kukwata biibyo aMateeka ebigalagira, olwakubba eKiwandiike ekindi kikoba kiti, “Omutuukirirye yaabbanga mwomi lwa kwikirirya.” 3:11 Kab 2:4 12 Neye aMateeka igo tigakolera ku kwikirirya. Aate, eKiwandiike ekindi kikoba kiti, “Buli atuukirirya ebyo aMateeka ebigalagira, yaabbanga mwomi mwigo.” 3:12 Lee 18:5 13 OKurisito yatununwire, nʼatutoola omu kiraami ekiiza lwʼaMateeka, oweyasuukire ekiraami okulwaiswe ngʼekyo yakikolere owebamukomereire oku musalabba olwakubba eKiwandiike kikoba kiti, “Buli ogubayanika angulu oku kisaale abba ansi wʼekiraami.” 3:13 Ama 21:23 14 OKurisito yatwaire ekiraami ekyo okulwaiswe kaisi enkabi oKibbumba egiyasuubizire oIbbulaimu giize eeri aBatali Bayudaaya olwa Kurisito oYesu, era kaisi olwʼokwikirirya, tusune oMwoyo oMweru ogubasuubizire.

15 Aboluganda, oleke mbawe ekyokuboneraku omu nkola eyʼabantu eya buliijo. Omuntu owaamala okukola ekiraamo nʼakikakasa, mpaawo muntu ogubaikirirya okukitoolawo ooba okukyongeramu ebintu ebiyaaka. Era wekiri nʼomu nsonga eginkoba. 16 OKibbumba yakolere ekisuubize eeri oIbbulaimu nʼeeri omwizukuluwe. EKiwandiike tikikoba kiti, “Era nʼeeri abaizukulube,” nga kitumula ku bantu abangi, neye kikoba kiti, “Nʼeeri omwizukuluwe,” nga kitumula ku muntu moiza, era niiye oKurisito. 3:16 Nta 12:7 17 Ekinkoba niikyo kinu nti oKibbumba yakolere ekisuubize era nʼakikakatya eeri oIbbulaimu ati yaliwa abantu bonabona enkabi ngʼabita mu mwizukulu wa Ibbulaimu. Amateeka agebongeirewo nga wabitirewo emyanka 430, tigeezya kudibya ekisuubize kidi kaisi igo ni gabba niigo omu babita okuwa abantu enkabi. 3:17 Kuz 12:40 18 Aale atyanu abba ngʼawa enkabi kubita mu Mateeka, kitegeeza kiti tabita mu kisuubize kidi; neye tiniiye owekiri kityo olwakubba oKibbumba yawaire oIbbulaimu enkabi ngʼabita mu kisuubize. 3:18 Lom 4:14

19 Omuntu ayezya okwebuulya ati, “Kaisi tete aMateeka gagasa niki?” Bagateekerewo nga ga kaseera-buseera, kubbeera abantu olwʼeibbengo eryabbaire omu bantu okubalungamya paka ngʼomwizukulu wa Ibbulaimu ogubakoleire ekisuubize aizire.

Era amateeka ago abamalaika niibo abagakwatisirye onaabbi oMusa, iye oMusa nakola ngʼomutabagania. 20 Tumaite ngʼomutabagania akola gwʼokubbeera mba ibiri okutuuka okukutegeeragana neye oKibbumba iye yakoleire oIbbulaimu ekisuubize ngʼabula lubba olwateesa nalwo neye nga moiza.

21 Ogondi ayezya okwebuulya ati, “Olwo aMateeka galwanisya ebyo oKibbumba ebiyasuubizire?” Kadi katyayi kati. Amateeka masa neye tigawa obwomi. Singa niigo ageezya okuleeta obwomi obutawaawo, abantu bankubbaire basuna obutuukirirye lwa kukwata mateeka. 22 Neye eKiwandiike kikoba kiti ekibbikibbi kifuga abantu omu kyalo kyonakyona, kaisi abasuna ekibasuubizire bakiwenge baabo abaikirirya, era nga bakibawa lwʼokwikirirya Yesu Kurisito.

23 Okwikirirya owekwabbaire kukaali kwiza, aMateeka gatukuumanga nga tuli babbowe paka okwikirirya owekwaizire. 24 Ekitegeeza kiti aMateeka gatukuumakuumireku paka oKurisito oweyaizire, kaisi tubbe batuuce lwʼokwikirirya. 25 Neye atyanu okwikirirya ngʼowekwaizire, titukaali tuli ansi wʼeifuge lyʼomukuumi.

26 Olwʼokwikirirya, nywenanywena muli baana ba Kibbumba okubita omu Kurisito oYesu, 27 olwakubba inywe nywenanywena abebabatizire omu liina lya Kurisito, mwazwaire oKurisito. 28 Tiwakaali waliwo enjabulo akati wʼoMuyudaaya nʼowʼeigwanga erindi, nʼakati wʼomugalama nʼomuteere, nʼakati wʼomusaiza nʼomukali. Nywenanywena muli kintu kimo omu Kurisito oYesu. 29 Aale ngʼowemuli aba Kurisito, muli baizukulu ba Ibbulaimu, era mwalisuna ekyo oKibbumba ekiyasuubizire. 3:29 Lom 4:13
