< Galatians 2 >

1 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.
Shure kweizvozvo kwapfuura makore gumi nemana ndakakwirazve kuJerusarema naBhanabhasi, ndikatorawo naTitosi.
2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
Zvino ndakakwira nekuzarurirwa, ndokuvarondedzera evhangeri yandinoparidza pakati pevahedheni, asi pachivande kune vakange vachikudzwa, zvimwe ndimhanyire kana ndakamhanyira pasina.
3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
Asi kunyange Titosi waiva neni, ari muGiriki, haana kurovererwa kuti adzingiswe;
4 And that because of false brothers unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
uye nekuda kwehama dzenhema, vakange vapinzwa pachivande, vakange vapinda nekunyangira kuzoshora kusununguka kwedu kwatinako muna Kristu Jesu, kuti vatiise muuranda;
5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
vatisina kutendera nekuzviisa pasi kunyange kweawa; kuti chokwadi cheevhangeri chirambe chigere nemwi.
6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatever they were, it makes no matter to me: God accepts no man’s person: ) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:
Asi kune vainzi chinhu (kunyange vaimbova chii hazvirevi chinhu kwandiri; Mwari haagamuchiri chimiro chemunhu), nokuti avo vaikudzwa havana kundiwedzera chinhu;
7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed to me, as the gospel of the circumcision was to Peter;
asi zvakadaro, vakati vaona kuti evhangeri yevasina kudzingiswa yakakumikidzwa kwandiri, saPetro yevasina kudzingiswa,
8 (For he that worked effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles: )
(nekuti iye wakaita nesimba kuna Petro kuvuapositori hwekudzingiswa, wakaita nesimba nekwandiri kuvahedheni);
9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go to the heathen, and they to the circumcision.
zvino vaziva nyasha dzandakapiwa, vanaJakobho naKefasi naJohwani, vaikudzwa kuva mbiru, vakapa ini naBhanabhasi ruoko rwerudyi rwekudyidzana, kuti isu tiende kuvahedheni, ivowo kune vakadzingiswa;
10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
chete kuti tirangarire varombo, ichocho chandakashingairirawo kuita.
11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
Zvino Petro wakati asvika Andiyokiya, ndakamupikisa pachiso, nokuti wakange ane mhosva.
12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
Nokuti vamwe vasati vasvika vaibva kuna Jakobho, waidya nevahedheni; asi kana vasvika waisuduruka, achizviraura, achitya vekudzingiswa.
13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; so that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
Nevamwewo VaJudha vakanyepedzera pamwe naye, zvekuti Bhanabhasiwo wakatorwa neunyepedzeri hwavo.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all, If you, being a Jew, live after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compel you the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
Asi ndakati ndaona kuti havafambi zvakarurama maererano nechokwadi cheevhangeri, ndakati kuna Petro pamberi pevese: Kana iwe uri muJudha, unorarama nemutoo wevahedheni, uye kwete sezvinoita VaJudha, unoroverera sei vahedheni kuti vararame seVaJudha?
15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
Isu tiri VaJudha pachisikirwo, uye kwete vatadzi vanobva kuvahedheni,
16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
tichiziva kuti munhu haanzi wakarurama nemabasa emurairo, asi nerutendo kuna Jesu Kristu, nesu takatenda kuna Kristu Jesu, kuti tinzi takarurama nerutendo kuna Kristu, uye kwete nemabasa emurairo; nokuti nemabasa emurairo hakuna nyama ichanzi yakarurama.
17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
Asi kana isu, tinotsvaka kunzi takarurama kuna Kristu, nesu tomene tiwanikwe tiri vatadzi, naizvozvo Kristu wava mushumiri wechivi here? Ngazvisadaro!
18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
Nokuti kana ndikavakazve izvi zvandakaputsa, ndinozviratidza kuva mudariki.
19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live to God.
Nokuti ini nemurairo ndakafa kumurairo, kuti ndirarame kuna Mwari.
20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Ndakarovererwa pamuchinjikwa pamwe naKristu; asi ndinorarama; handisisiri ini, asi Kristu anorarama mandiri; asi zvandinorarama ikozvino panyama, ndinorarama nerutendo rweMwanakomana waMwari, wakandida akazvipa nekuda kwangu.
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Handishaisi nyasha dzaMwari maturo; nokuti kana kunzi wakarurama kunowanikwa nemurairo, saka Kristu wakafira pasina.
