< Galatians 2 >

1 Fourteen years later I went up to Jerusalem again, with Barnabas, and took Titus also with me
Nyingring gola nyingpi nvgv koching bvku Barnabas gv lvkobv Jerusalem bv taitus nyika laala ila ngo vngkur minggv toku.
2 (I went up at that time in obedience to a revelation). And I laid before them the gospel which I am wont to preach among the Gentiles. I did this privately before those in authority, lest by any means I should be running, or should already have run, in vain.
Pwknvyarnv ngam kaatam kolo ngo vngrung dubv ridukunyi mvngla vngtoku. Jentail nyi vdwgvlo ngo gamlv doin minggo jinam am rigvnv vdwgv doopam lo minbwk jitoku. Ngo ngoogv kudungkua rironam vmalo rigv dunam sum riram pakmu nwngmadu.
3 But although Titus, my companion, was a Greek, they did not compel even him to be circumcised.
Ngam vngming gvnv Taitus, hv greek nyigo, vbvrijvka um ayakmvu lakv vla raitungtung nyomadu,
4 Yet there were false brethren who had crept in to spy out the freedom we enjoy in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us again.
Vbvrijvka Kvvgonv um ridubv mvngto. Mvngjwngnv aingbv gwnglwkla, so nyi vdwvv ngonugv apumara lo rulwkmvlwk la, ngonugv Jisu kristo gvlo akingobv sasoryaung bv rimindooming nam lvkwng lo makimai dubv ridu. Bunu ngonua pakbu mvdubv mvngto.
5 To them we did not yield submission even for an hour, in order that the truth of the gospel might abide unshaken among you.
Vbvritola gamlv jvjv nga bununo lvgabv achingamu jila rito, ngonu bunua achok goka vbvrimu mato.
6 But those in authority - what they once were makes no difference to me; God is no respecter of persons - those I say who were in authority had no additions to make my message.
Vbvritola oogv rigvdogvnv aingbv kaanam vdwa—ngo mindu ogulvgavbolo ngoogv lvgabv ogu angu sinvgo kaama: bunu ogu ngvdw Pwknvyarnv ao nga jwngkadaka madunv—rigvnv vdwa mindunv, nga ogu anwnv tamsar jinamgo kaama.
7 On the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel for the uncircumcised, just as Peter has with the gospel for the circumcised
Vbvrimayabv, Jius vdwgvlo Pitarnyi gamlv japgo kardubv Pwknvyarnv gv ninyia kudungkua ridubv jinam aingchingbv, ngam Pwknvyarnv Jentail vdwgvlo gamlv japdubv nga kudungkua jito vla bunu kaatoku.
8 (for he who has equipped Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised, equipped me also for the apostleship to the Gentiles),
Holvgabv Pwknvyarnv gv jwkrw lokv Pitarnyi jius vdwgv ara lokv apostol akobv mvnam aingbv, Jentail vdwgv ara lokv nga apostol akobv mvtoku.
9 and when they recognized the grace which had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, then thought to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and to me the right hand of fellowship. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the Jews.
Jems, Pitar, okv jon bunu oogv rigvdogvnv kaanam vdwv, Pwknvyarnv nga so kudungkua sum ridubv jipv vla bunuka kaachin nyatoku; vkvlvgabv bunu Barnabas ngonyia laak am gakrwk minsuto, vbvrinamv ngonu mvnwng ngv richum akinnv vla kaachin kunam gobv rito. Barnabas okv ngo Jentail vdwgv aralo kudungkua ridubv okv bunu jius vdwgv aralo ridubv vla ngonu vbv turwk minsu toku.
10 They stipulated only that we should remember the poor, which very thing indeed I was quite eager to do.
Bunu mvnwng gv minam si ngonu bunugv aralo nyimaopin vdwa aya mvngpa jilakv vto okv vkvnv kudungkua rinwng namv ngo gvlo dodunv.
11 But when Cephas came to Antioch I resisted him to his face, because he stood self-condemned.
Vbvritola Pitar vdwlo Antiok aalwk kubvdw, ngo nyi mvnwng gv tvvkulo yamtoku, ogulvgavbolo hv daadwvrw bv rimur rungtoku.
12 For until certain men came from James he used to eat with the Gentile Christians, but when they came, he began to draw back and to separate himself, because he was afraid of the circumcision party.
Jems gv vngmunam nyi vdwgv aalwk madvbv, Pitar hoka Jentail mvngjwngnv vdwgv lvkobv dvnamtvngnam dvdungtvngdung minggvto. Vbvritola oogv nyi vdwgv aachi ronam kochingbv, hv lingkur toku okv Jentail vdwgv lvkobv dvbamtvngbam kuma toku, ogulvgavbolo hv bunua ayakmvu rirungdubv ripv vla minv vdwa busu nyala ritoku.
13 And the rest of the Jewish Christians also dissimulated with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.
Kvvbi Jius mvngjwngnv vdwka Pitar gv busu gvku lokv riming gvrap toku; okv Barnabas ka vbvching akingobv bunugv rinam aingbv riminggvto.
14 But when I saw that they were not walking a straight path, in the presence of the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all. "If you, although you are a Jew, live like the Gentiles and not like the Jews, why do you try to compel the Gentiles to become Jews?
Vdwlo ngo kaakunamv bunu yvvka jvjv rungnv Gamlv nga sorsimai lamtv lo vnggv madu, ngo Pitarnyi mvnwng gv tvvkulo minto, “no Jius ako, vjak no Jentail nyi aingbv ridu laka, Jius nyi aingbv rimadu. Vbvrinamv, ogubv, no Jentail nyi vdwa Jius nyi aingbv rililala gvvtv donvla?”
15 "We are Jews by birth, and not ‘Gentile sinners’;
Rinamgvbv, ngonu Jius lokv kuu bvngnamv okv “Jentail nyi rimur nvngvma,” ngonugv bunua minam aingbv.
16 "yet because we know that no man is justified by the works of the Law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we ourselves also have put our faith 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."
Vjak ngonu Jisu kristonyi mvngjwng mvngchiknam lokv nyigonv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak doodunv vla ngonu chindu, Pvbv mingkur lo oguv vdudw vdwloka rimadu. Ngonuka, Kristo Jisunyi mvngjwng sidunv oogv kristo gvlo mvngjwng nam lokv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv rila dunv, okv Pvbv rikur ngv oguvdw ngonu ho rimadu. Vkvlvgabv pvbv rikur ngv oguvvdw vbvrila yvvka Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak madunv.
17 But if while seeking to be justified in Christ we ourselves also have been found to be sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? Far from it!
Vv kubolo ngonu kristo gvlo akin gobv ridula Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak bv ridubv gwngkwrikwdu, vbvrinam vvka Jentail nyi “rimurnv” vnam aingbv ngonuka kaakunamv rimur himpa sidu, svbv rinam si kristo rimur lvgabv kudungkua ripvnvri? Vv vdwloka vbv rinyumare.
18 For if I am rebuilding the very things which I destroyed, I am proving myself a transgressor.
Ngo Pvbv mvyak kunam sum ngo lvkodv mvtin rapkubolo, vv nyigonvgv pvbv mvyak kunam aingbv bv ngo awv kaatam sidu.
19 For it is through law I died to law, in order to live to God.
Vbvrijvka, Pvbv gv ara lokv mimbolo, ngo sitoku—Pvbv lokv mvki supvkunv—ngo Pwknvyarnv gv lvgabv turpvku lage. Kristo gv lvkobv ngooka dapolo sitak lwkming gvpvkunv.
20 I have been crucified with Christ, so it is no longer I who am living, but it is Christ who is living in me; and the life I am now living in the flesh, I am living in faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.
Vkvlvgabv, ngo soogv turdunam si ngo awv tursuma, vbvritola si kristo ngoogv arwng lo turdunv. Ho ngo vjak turladakla singduridunv si, ngo Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngam mvngjwng nam lokv turdunv, oogv ngam paknv okv vv ngo lvgabv ninyigv singdung ngam jilwk sunv ngv.
21 I do not annul the grace of God; for if righteousness comes by way of the Law, then indeed Christ died Christ for nothing.
Ngo Pwknvyarnv gv anyuaya nga darpak simare. Vbvritola nyinyidam gunv pvbv lokv Pwknvyarnv gvlo tarwkbak doodubolo, vv kristo gv siji namv oguguka anyung kamadu!
