Galatians 5

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Na te Karaiti i wewete te here i a tatou: na reira kia u te tu, kei mau hoki ki roto ki te ioka pononga.

Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

Nana, tenei ahau, a Paora te mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te kotia koutou, e kore koutou e whai pai i a te Karaiti.

For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

He whakaatu tuarua tenei naku ki nga tangata katoa e kotia ana, kua mau ratou i te ture kia mahia katoatia.

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Kua wehea atu koutou i a te Karaiti, e te hunga e whakatikaia ana e te ture, kua taka iho koutou i runga i te aroha noa.

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

Ko tatou hoki, na te Wairua ta tatou tatari ki te tika e tumanakohia atu nei, e ahu mai nei i te whakapono:

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

I roto hoki i a Karaiti Ihu kahore o te kotinga wahi, kahore o te kotingakore; engari ko te whakapono e mahi ana i runga i te aroha.

Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?

I pai ta koutou oma; na wai koutou i whakaware, i kore ai koutou e rongo ki te pono?

This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.

Ehara tenei whakaaro i te mea na te kaikaranga i a koutou.

A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

He iti te rewena, rewenatia ake te puranga katoa.

I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.

E whakapono ana ahau ki a koutou i roto i te Ariki, e kore e rere ke o koutou whakaaro: ko te kaiwhakararu ia i a koutou, ahakoa ko wai, mana ano tona whakawakanga e pikau.

And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.

Me ahau ano, e oku teina, ki te mea he kauwhau tonu nei taku i te kotinga, he aha ahau ka whakatoia tonutia ai? penei kua kore to te ripeka tutukitanga waewae.

I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

Pai kau ki ahau me i motuhia atu te hunga e whakararu na i a koutou.

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

Kua karangatia nei hoki koutou, e oku teina, ki te tikanga herekore; kaua ia ta koutou tikanga herekore e waiho hei whakaoho i te kikokiko, engari me mahi koutou tetahi ki tetahi i runga i te aroha.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

E takoto topu ana hoki te ture katoa i roto i te kupu kotahi, ara, Kia aroha koe ki tou hoa tata, ano ko koe.

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

Ki te ngau ia koutou, ki te kai tetahi i tetahi, kia tupato kei pareho tetahi i tetahi.

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

Ko taku kupu ia tenei, Haere i roto i te Wairua, a e kore e whakaritea e koutou te hiahia o te kikokiko.

For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

E hiahia ana hoki te kikokiko tika ke i te Wairua, me te Wairua tika ke i te kikokiko: e whawhai ana hoki enei tetahi ki tetahi: te taea nga mea i hiahia ai koutou.

But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Ki te arahina ia koutou e te Wairua, kahore koutou i raro i te ture.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

Na e kitea ana nga mahi a te kikokiko, ara he moe tahae, he poke, he hiahia taikaha,

Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

He karakia whakapakoko, he makutu, he pakanga, he totohe, he hae, he riri, he wawahi, he wehewehe, he titore,

Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

He hao, he haurangi, he kakai, me nga mea e rite ana ki enei: me korero wawe e ahau enei mea ki a koutou, me pera me taku i korero ai i mua, ko te hunga e mahi ana i nga mea penei, e kore e whiwhi ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Ko te hua ia o te Wairua, he aroha, he hari, he rangimarie, he manawanui, he ngawari, he ngakau pai, he whakapono,

Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

He ngakau mahaki, he ngakau kua taea te pehi: kahore he ture e riria ai enei mea.

And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

Ko te hunga ia o te Karaiti, kua ripekatia e ratou te kikokiko, me ona hihiritanga, me ona hiahia.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

Ki te mea e ora ana tatou i roto i te Wairua, kia haere ano tatou i roto i te Wairua.

Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Kei whaia e tatou te kororia huakore, te whakapataritari tetahi ki tetahi, te hae tetahi ki tetahi.
