1ʻE Kāinga, kapau ʻe moʻua ha tangata ʻi ha kovi, ko kimoutolu ʻoku fakalaumālie, fakamoʻui ia ʻi he loto angavaivai; mo ke tokangaʻi koe, telia naʻa fakatauveleʻi ko e foki.
1Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.
2Mou fetoutou fefuaʻaki hoʻomou kavenga, pea fakamoʻoni ai ki he fono ʻa Kalaisi.
2Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3He kapau ʻoku mahalo ʻe ha taha ko ha meʻa ia, ka ʻoku ʻikai, ʻoku ne kākaaʻi ʻe ia ia.
3For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4Kae tuku ke ʻahiʻahi ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻene ngāue ʻaʻana, pea te ne toki maʻu ai ʻae fiefia ʻiate ia pe, kae ʻikai ʻi ha taha kehe.
4But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.
5Koeʻuhi ʻe taki taha fua ʻene kavenga ʻaʻana.
5For each man will bear his own burden.
6Ko ia kuo akonekina ʻi he folofola, ke ne foaki ʻae meʻa ʻaonga kotoa pē kiate ia ʻoku akonaki.
6But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.
7ʻOua naʻa kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu; ʻoku ʻikai faʻa kākaaʻi ʻae ʻOtua: he ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ʻe he tangata, ko ia te ne utu foki.
7Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8He ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ki hono kakano, te ne utu ʻi he kakano ʻae ʻauha; ka ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ki he Laumālie, te ne utu ʻi he Laumālie ʻae moʻui taʻengata.
8For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
9Pea ke ʻoua naʻa tau fiu ʻi he fai lelei: he te tau utu ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu totonu, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te tau vaivai.
9Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.
10Ko ia, pea ʻi heʻetau maʻu ha faingamālie, ke tau fai lelei ki he kakai kotoa pē, kae ʻāsili pe kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he fale ʻoe tui.
10So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
11ʻOku mou mamata ki he tohi lahi kuo u tohi atu kiate kimoutolu ʻaki hoku nima ʻoʻoku.
11See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.
12Ko kinautolu ʻoku holi ke matamatalelei fakakakano pe, ʻoku nau fakalotoʻi ʻakimoutolu ke mou kamu; telia naʻa fakatangaʻi ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko e ʻakau ʻo Kalaisi.
12As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
13He ko kinautolu kuo kamu, ʻoku ʻikai te nau fai ki he fono; ka ʻoku nau holi ke mou kamu, koeʻuhi ke nau polepole ai ʻi homou kakano.
13For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh.
14Kae mamaʻo mo au ʻae polepole, ka ʻi he ʻakau pe ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻaia kuo tutuki ai ke mate ʻa māmani kiate au, mo au ki māmani.
14But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15He ʻoku ʻikai ʻaonga siʻi ʻia Kalaisi Sisu ʻae kamu, pe ʻae taʻekamu, ka ko e fakafoʻou.
15For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
16Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻaʻeva ʻo taau mo e meʻa fua ni, ke ʻiate kinautolu ʻae monūʻia, mo e ʻaloʻofa, pea ki he ʻIsileli ʻoe ʻOtua.
16As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.
17Ke ngata mei heni, ke ʻoua naʻa fakamamahiʻi au ʻe ha taha: he ʻoku ou fua ʻi hoku sino ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.
17From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.
18ʻE kāinga, ke ʻi homou laumālie ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. ʻEmeni.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
