Galatians 2
1 Fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem, accompanied by Barnabas. I took Titus along also.
Are xikꞌow kajlajuj junabꞌ, xinpaqiꞌ chik junmul pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, wachiꞌl ri Bernabé, xuqujeꞌ ri Tito.
2 I went in response to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I spoke privately to those recognized as leaders, for fear that I was running or had already run in vain.
Xineꞌ pa Jerusalén rumal ri xinnimaj ri jun qꞌalajisanik ri xkꞌut chinuwach. Xqamulij kꞌu qibꞌ kukꞌ ri qas e kꞌamal taq bꞌe, xintzijoj kꞌut chike ri utz laj tzij ri tajin kintzijoj chike ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj, rech kinto jas kakibꞌij, rech jeriꞌ man xaq ta tzaqel ri nubꞌanom.
3 Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek.
Ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe kꞌut, man xkitaqchiꞌj ta ne ri Tito ri bꞌenaq wukꞌ, chukojik ri retal ri chꞌekom tzij pa ri utyoꞌjal, pune ketaꞌm chi man aj Israel taj.
4 This issue arose because some false brothers had come in under false pretenses to spy on our freedom in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.
Pune e kꞌo jujun chilaꞌ ri xaq esal taq kiwach alaxik, xaq xwi keꞌkilaꞌ jas ri kujkwinik kaqabꞌano pa Cristo, rech jeriꞌ kujkitaqchiꞌj chubꞌanik ri kubꞌij ri taqanik rech ri Moisés.
5 We did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you.
Xa ta kꞌu ne jubꞌiqꞌ xeꞌqanimaj, rech jeriꞌ ri qas tzij rech ri utz laj tzij kajeqiꞌk piꞌwanimaꞌ.
6 But as for the highly esteemed—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show favoritism —those leaders added nothing to me.
Are kꞌu ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe, pune man kꞌo ta kutayij chwe ri kuꞌxik, jeriꞌ rumal cher ri Dios man kuqꞌat ta tzij pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq rumal ri kebꞌantajik, man kꞌo ta chi jun kꞌakꞌ jastaq ri xkibꞌij loq chwe.
7 On the contrary, they saw that I had been entrusted to preach the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised.
Xane qas xkilo chi qas xchilibꞌex wi chwe utzijoxik ri utz laj tzij chike ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj jetaq ri xbꞌan che ri Pedro xchilibꞌex che kutzijoj ri utz laj tzij chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel.
8 For the One who was at work in Peter’s apostleship to the circumcised was also at work in my apostleship to the Gentiles.
Ri Dios ri xuya bꞌe che ri Pedro rech xux taqoꞌn kukꞌ ri winaq aꞌj Israel, xuya xuqujeꞌ bꞌe chwe xinux taqoꞌn kukꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
9 And recognizing the grace that I had been given, James, Cephas, and John—those reputed to be pillars—gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.
Qas tzij ri Jacobo, ri Pedro xuqujeꞌ ri Juan, ri qas kabꞌan ke, xkilo chi qas xinkꞌamawaꞌj wi ri toqꞌobꞌ, xkichap ri qaqꞌabꞌ ri in xuqujeꞌ ri Bernabé chukꞌutik chi uj kachiꞌl chik, rech jeriꞌ kujeꞌ uj kukꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj, are kꞌu ri areꞌ kebꞌe kukꞌ ri winaq aꞌj Israel.
10 They only asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
Xwi xkichilibꞌej ubꞌixik chaqe chi kel qakꞌuꞌx chike ri e mebꞌaibꞌ, are kꞌut wa qilim loq ubꞌanik.
11 When Cephas came to Antioch, however, I opposed him to his face, because he stood to be condemned.
Are xulik ri Pedro pa ri tinimit Antioquía, xinbꞌij chupalaj ri kanoꞌjinik, jeriꞌ rumal cher man utz ta ri tajin kubꞌano.
12 For before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself, for fear of those in the circumcision group.
Jeriꞌ rumal are majaꞌ kuꞌlik ri uꞌtaqoꞌn ri Jacobo, ri Pedro kawaꞌ kukꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj; are xuꞌlik we winaq riꞌ, xuchapleꞌj uqꞌatik ribꞌ chike ri e winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj jeriꞌ rumal xuxiꞌj ribꞌ chike ri winaq ri e kojtal ketal.
13 The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray.
Are xkil ri nikꞌaj winaq aꞌj Israel ri xubꞌan ri Pedro, xkikoj kibꞌ rukꞌ pa ri ukawachil, ri Bernabé xuqujeꞌ xutereneꞌj ri kawach laj noꞌjibꞌal riꞌ.
14 When I saw that they were not walking in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all, “If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?”
Are xinwilo chi man sukꞌ ta ri tajin kenoꞌjinik jetaq ri kubꞌij ri usukꞌal ri utz laj tzij, xinbꞌij che ri Pedro chikiwach konojel: We at at aj Israel, man je ta katnoꞌjinik jetaq jun aj Israel, ¿jas kꞌu che kaꞌtaqchiꞌj ri man aꞌj Israel taj rech kakibꞌan ri kakibꞌij ri winaq aꞌj Israel?
15 We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile “sinners”
Ri uj uj aꞌj Israel wi pa qakꞌojiꞌkal, man uj aꞌjmakibꞌ taj jetaq ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
16 know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
Qetaꞌm kꞌut chi man kꞌo ta jun kabꞌantaj sukꞌ che rumal ri chak ri kuta ri taqanik xane xaq xwi kabꞌantaj sukꞌ che jun rumal ri kojobꞌal pa Jesucristo, jeriꞌ rumal man kꞌo ta jun kabꞌantaj sukꞌ che rumal ri taqanik.
17 But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are found to be sinners, does that make Christ a minister of sin? Certainly not!
We kꞌu kaqaj kabꞌantaj sukꞌ chaqe rumal ri Cristo, riꞌ kel kubꞌij chi qas uj aꞌjmakibꞌ wi. ¿La kel kꞌu kubꞌij wa chi ri Cristo patanil rech ri makaj? Man je ta riꞌ.
18 If I rebuild what I have already torn down, I prove myself to be a lawbreaker.
We kꞌo jun kuwok chi jun jastaq ri xtukitajik, riꞌ kux chi ajmak junmul.
19 For through the law I died to the law so that I might live to God.
Ri in kꞌut in kaminaq chik pa ri taqanik rech ri Moisés, rech jeriꞌ in kꞌaslik chuyaꞌik uqꞌij ri Dios.
20 I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
Xinriptaj rukꞌ ri Cristo, rumal riꞌ man in kꞌas ta chik xaq pa we wi, are ri Cristo kꞌas chwe. Ri tajin kinriq chanim pa ri nutyoꞌjal, kiriqo pa ri nukojobꞌal che ri Ukꞌojol ri Dios, Areꞌ xinloqꞌanik xuqujeꞌ xujach ribꞌ rumal we.
21 I do not set aside the grace of God. For if righteousness comes through the law, Christ died for nothing.
Man kinwetzelaj ta ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios. Jeriꞌ rumal we ta rumal ri taqanik xpe ri sukꞌal, man kꞌo ta bꞌa kutayij riꞌ ri ukamikal ri Cristo.
