Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
1Ngani jatai: Jeruntja ditji maratunka maninietja kupa nganai, nau milini jeribaka nganai, ja kantji warupotuja kapara nau nganai;
2But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed by the father:
2A‐ai, nau najinajibanietjani ja ngamalkanietjani ngamai, nunkangupini ditjielu, nina ngaperali kurana warai.
3So we also, when we were children, were serving under the elements of the world.
3Jeruja bakana ngaiani, ngaiani kupa ngananani, ngaiani jirijiribani jaurani dupudupu nganana wonti.
4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law:
4Ditji matja wokaranani, Godali Ngatamura nunkani jinpana wonti, Nauja widlandru dankana wonti, ja Nulia ninaia jirijiribani jauraia ngalpani kurana wonti,
5That he might redeem them who were under the law: that we might receive the adoption of sons.
5Nulia tanana, tana jirijiribani jaurani ngalpani ngamanani, dukarana burungankananto, ngaiani kupalali maninanto.
6And because you are sons, God hath sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying: Abba, Father.
6Ngangau jura ngatamura nganai, Godali Ngatamuraia Jaola ngaianini ngarani jinpana wonti, nulupini karkai: „Abba, Ngaperiai!“
7Therefore now he is not a servant, but a son. And if a son, an heir also through God.
7Jeruja jidni wata morla mili nganai, a‐ai, ngatamura. Jidni ngatamura ngananani, jeruja bakana Godaia maratunka maninietja Christungundru.
8But then indeed, not knowing God, you served them, who, by nature, are not gods.
8Jendranguta, jura Goda wata ngujamana wonti, jura tanangupini Godani wodatarana ngamana wonti, tana jenia wata kantji nganai;
9But now, after that you have known God, or rather are known by God: how turn you again to the weak and needy elements, which you desire to serve again?
9Karari, jura Goda matja ngujamana, morla talku, Godali jurana matja ngujamana, minandru jura nakaldra karitjiai jirijiribani jaura wangiwangini ja waltowaltuni, ja ngantjai tanangu nakaldra wodatarana ngamala?
10You observe days, and months, and times, and years.
10Jura ditji ja pira ja miljaru ja kilpawoldra ngundrai;
11I am afraid of you, lest perhaps I have laboured in vain among you.
11Ngani japali nganai jurangundru, ngato bakujeli jurangu matja ngankana warai kara.
12Be ye as I, because I also am as you: brethren, I beseech you: you have not injured me at all.
12Ngakangu jeribaka pantjianau, ngangau ngani jurangu jeribaka nganai, ngatata worajai, ngani jurangu ngantjai, jura ngana wata ngaurongauro ngankana warai;
13And you know, how through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you heretofore: and your temptation in my flesh,
13Jura milkila, ngato palkuja waltowaltundru jurangu ngopera ngantjani jaura kaukaubana wonti,
14You despised not, nor rejected: but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
14Ja jura ngana, wontjanilandru ngakangu, palkuni wata waka ngundrana wonti ja wata ngirkibana wonti, a‐ai, jura ngana Godaia angela jeribaka patana wonti, Christus Jesus jeribaka.
15Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness, that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and would have given them to me.
15Worderu murlali pirna jura jendranguta nganana wonti. Ngato jurangu morlalu kurai, jenia wata ngandandarinani, jura jendranguta jurani milki dukaraterinala ja ngakangu jinkinala.
16Am I then become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
16Ngani jendrangundruja talpala jurani pantjina warai, ngangau ngani jurangu morlaluta jatana wonti?
17They are zealous in your regard not well: but they would exclude you, that you might be zealous for them.
17Tanali jurangundru wata ngumu manabakapirna ngankai, a‐ai, tanali ngantjai jurana puntibala, jura tanangundru manabakapirna ngankananto.
18But be zealous for that which is good in a good thing always: and not only when I am present with you.
18Manabakapirna ngumu nganai, jenia ngumuni milingeru pantjinani, ja wata windri, ngani jurangu jela ngananani.
19My little children, of whom I am in labour again, until Christ be formed in you.
19Ngakani kupa worajai, tanangundru ngato nakaldra dankani ketjaketjana ketjaketjai, Christus jurangu mudlamalka pantjinantulu.
20And I would willingly be present with you now, and change my voice: because I am ashamed for you.
20Ngato ngantjai karari jurangu jela ngamala, ja ngakani ngaiala karitjimalkala; ngangau ngani wurpuru nganai jurangundru. (Dakani jaura Lätare ditjini.)
21Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law?
21Ngakangu jatanau, jura jirijiribani jauraia ngalpani jertapateriai ngamala, jura jirijiribani jaura wata ngarai?
22For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, and the other by a free woman.
22Ngangau dakanala parai: Abrahamali ngatamura mandru ngamalkana wonti; kulno widlala milila, ja kulno kurakanilali.
23But he who was of the bondwoman, was born according to the flesh: but he of the free woman, was by promise.
23Nau widlala milila palkujeli kantji patana wonti; ja nau kurakanilali talpadakani jaurali.
24Which things are said by an allegory. For these are the two testaments. The one from mount Sina, engendering unto bondage; which is Agar:
24Nulupini minakulno wondrai; ngangau jenia Testamenta mandru nganai. Kulno Sinai mardawonpandru, milieli dankanaia, naupini Hagar nganai.
25For Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which hath affinity to that Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
25Ngangau Arabiala Sinai mardawonpa Hagar dikai, ja jeribaka nganai nunkangupini Jerusalem karari, ngangau nau mili nganai nunkani kupanto.
26But that Jerusalem, which is above, is free: which is our mother.
26Jerusalem miri kurakanila nganai; ja naupini ngaiananaia pratjanaia ngandri nganai.
27For it is written: Rejoice, thou barren, that bearest not: break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for many are the children of the desolate, more than of her that hath a husband.
27Ngangau dakanala parai: Mankiau ngameriai, jundru wata dankai; jurakokau ja karkau, jundru wata mandrantju pantjiai. Ngangau ngameri morla kupa ngamalkai nankangu, nandru noa ngamalkanani.
28Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
28Jura, ngatata worajai, Isaakani nguja nganai; talpadakani jauraia kupa.
29But as then he, that was born according to the flesh, persecuted him that was after the spirit; so also it is now.
29Worderu jendranguta, nau palkujeli dankana wonti, nunkangu, nau jaolali dankana wonti, tirikaripaterina wonti; jeruja bakana karari.
30But what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.
30Mina Godaia jaura jatai? „Mili widla nankani ngatananto narrau, ngangau mili widlaia ngatanajeli wata maratunka maninanto kurakanilaia ngatanajeli jela.“
31So then, brethren, we are not the children of the bondwoman, but of the free: by the freedom wherewith Christ has made us free.
31Jeruja, ngatata worajai, ngaiana wata mili widlaia ngatani nganai, a‐ai, kurakanilaia.
