Galatians 2

1 Fourteen years later I returned to Jerusalem with Barnabas. I took Titus along with me.

2 I went because of what God had shown me. I met with the recognized church leaders there in private and explained to them the good news I was sharing with the foreigners. I didn't want the course I had followed, and what I was working so hard for, to come to nothing.

3 But as it turned out, nobody even insisted that Titus who was with me should be circumcised, though he was Greek.

tato mama sahacarastiito yadyapi yuunaaniiya aasiit tathaapi tasya tvakchedo. apyaava"syako na babhuuva|

4 (That issue only arose because some false Christians slipped in to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus, trying to make us slaves.

yata"schalenaagataa asmaan daasaan karttum icchava. h katipayaa bhaaktabhraatara. h khrii. s.tena yii"sunaasmabhya. m datta. m svaatantryam anusandhaatu. m caaraa iva samaaja. m praavi"san|

5 We never gave into them, not even for a moment. We wanted to make sure to keep the truth of the good news unchanged for you.)

6 But those considered to be important didn't add anything to what I said. (It doesn't concern me what kind of leaders they were, because God doesn't judge people the way we do.)

parantu ye lokaa maanyaaste ye kecid bhaveyustaanaha. m na ga. nayaami yata ii"svara. h kasyaapi maanavasya pak. sapaata. m na karoti, ye ca maanyaaste maa. m kimapi naviina. m naaj naapayan|

7 On the contrary, once they realized that I'd been given responsibility to share the good news with the foreigners just as Peter had been given the responsibility to share the good news with the Jews,

kintu chinnatvacaa. m madhye susa. mvaadapracaara. nasya bhaara. h pitari yathaa samarpitastathaivaacchinnatvacaa. m madhye susa. mvaadapracaara. nasya bhaaro mayi samarpita iti tai rbubudhe|

8 (for the same God who worked through Peter as apostle to the Jews also worked through me as apostle to the foreigners),

yata"schinnatvacaa. m madhye preritatvakarmma. ne yasya yaa "sakti. h pitaramaa"sritavatii tasyaiva saa "sakti rbhinnajaatiiyaanaa. m madhye tasmai karmma. ne maamapyaa"sritavatii|

9 and once they recognized the grace that had been given to me, then James, Peter, and John, who bore the responsibility of church leadership, shook Barnabas and me by the hand as their fellow-workers.

10 We were to work for the foreigners, while they would work for the Jews. Their only instruction was to remember to look after the poor, something I was already very committed to.

11 However, when Peter came to Antioch I did have to confront him directly, because he was clearly wrong in what he did.

12 Before some of James' friends arrived, Peter used to eat with the foreigners. But when these people came he stopped doing this and stayed away from the foreigners. He was afraid of being criticized by those who insisted that men had to be circumcised.

yata. h sa puurvvam anyajaatiiyai. h saarddham aahaaramakarot tata. h para. m yaakuuba. h samiipaat katipayajane. svaagate. su sa chinnatva"nmanu. syebhyo bhayena niv. rtya p. rthag abhavat|

13 As well as Peter, other Jewish Christians became hypocritical too, to the extent that even Barnabas was persuaded to follow their hypocrisy.

tato. apare sarvve yihuudino. api tena saarddha. m kapa. taacaaram akurvvan bar. nabbaa api te. saa. m kaapa. tyena vipathagaamyabhavat|

14 When I realized that they weren't taking a firm stand for the truth of the good news, I said to Peter in front of everyone, “If you're a Jew yet live like the foreigners and not like Jews, why are you forcing the foreigners to live like Jews?

tataste prak. rtasusa. mvaadaruupe saralapathe na carantiiti d. r.s. tvaaha. m sarvve. saa. m saak. saat pitaram uktavaan tva. m yihuudii san yadi yihuudimata. m vihaaya bhinnajaatiiya ivaacarasi tarhi yihuudimataacara. naaya bhinnajaatiiyaan kuta. h pravarttayasi?

15 We may be Jews by birth, and not ‘sinners’ like the foreigners,

aavaa. m janmanaa yihuudinau bhavaavo bhinnajaatiiyau paapinau na bhavaava. h

16 but we know that nobody is made right by doing what the law demands—it is only through trusting in Jesus Christ. We have trusted in Christ Jesus so that we could be made right by placing our confidence in Christ, and not through doing what the law says—because nobody is made right by observing the requirements of the law.”

kintu vyavasthaapaalanena manu. sya. h sapu. nyo na bhavati kevala. m yii"sau khrii. s.te yo vi"svaasastenaiva sapu. nyo bhavatiiti buddhvaavaamapi vyavasthaapaalana. m vinaa kevala. m khrii. s.te vi"svaasena pu. nyapraaptaye khrii. s.te yii"sau vya"svasiva yato vyavasthaapaalanena ko. api maanava. h pu. nya. m praaptu. m na "saknoti|

17 For if, as we look to be made right in Christ, we ourselves prove to be sinners, does that then mean that Christ is in the service of sin? Of course not!

parantu yii"sunaa pu. nyapraaptaye yatamaanaavapyaavaa. m yadi paapinau bhavaavastarhi ki. m vaktavya. m? khrii. s.ta. h paapasya paricaaraka iti? tanna bhavatu|

18 For if I were to rebuild what I've destroyed, then I only demonstrate I'm a law-breaker.

mayaa yad bhagna. m tad yadi mayaa punarnirmmiiyate tarhi mayaivaatmado. sa. h prakaa"syate|

19 For through the law I died to the law in order that I could live for God.

aha. m yad ii"svaraaya jiivaami tadartha. m vyavasthayaa vyavasthaayai amriye|

20 I've been crucified with Christ— so it's no longer I who lives, but it is Christ living in me. The life I now live in this body, I live by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me, and who gave himself for me.

khrii. s.tena saarddha. m kru"se hato. asmi tathaapi jiivaami kintvaha. m jiivaamiiti nahi khrii. s.ta eva madanta rjiivati| saamprata. m sa"sariire. na mayaa yajjiivita. m dhaaryyate tat mama dayaakaari. ni madartha. m sviiyapraa. natyaagini ce"svaraputre vi"svasataa mayaa dhaaryyate|

21 How could I dismiss God's grace? For if we could be made right through keeping the law then Christ died a pointless death!
