< Galatians 2 >
1 Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.
Again, from fourteen years I went up to Urishlem with Bar Naba, and took with me Titos.
2 I went up by revelation, and I explained to them the Good News which I preach among those who are not Jewish, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.
But I went up by revelation; and I disclosed to them the gospel which I proclaim among the nations; and I showed it to those who were considered to be somewhat between myself and them, lest in vain I had run or should run.
3 But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.
Titos also who was with me, who was an Aramoya, was not constrained to be circumcised.
4 This was because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who stole in to spy out our liberty which we have in Messiah Yeshua, that they might bring us into bondage;
But on account of false brethren, who entered upon us that they might espy the liberty which we have in Jeshu Meshiha as that they might bring me into subjection;
5 to whom we gave no place in the way of subjection, not for an hour, that the truth of the Good News might continue with you.
yet not for the space of an hour did we cast ourselves down to be subject to them; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6 But from those who were reputed to be important (whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows no favoritism between people)—they, I say, who were respected imparted nothing to me,
But, they who were considered to be somewhat, ---but what they were I care not, for Aloha accepteth not men? s faces, ---they themselves added nothing unto me;
7 but to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcision, even as Peter with the Good News for the circumcision
but otherwise: for seeing that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Kipha was intrusted with the circumcision;
8 (for he who appointed Peter to be an emissary of the circumcision appointed me also to the non-Jews);
---for he who wrought effectually with Kipha for the apostleship of the circumcision, wrought effectually also with me for the apostleship of the Gentiles;
9 and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, Jacob and Kefa and John, they who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the non-Jews, and they to the circumcised.
---and knowing the grace which had been given to me, Jakub and Kipha and Juchanon, who were considered to be pillars, the right hand of fellowship gave to me and to Bar Naba, that we (should preach) among the Gentiles, and they among the circumcision:
10 They only asked us to remember the poor—which very thing I was also zealous to do.
only (requiring) that of the poor we should be mindful; and I have been solicitous to do this same thing.
11 But when Kefa came to Antioch, I resisted him to his face, because he stood condemned.
But when Kipha had come to Antiokia, I rebuked him to his face, because they were offended by him.
12 For before some people came from Jacob, he ate with those who were not Jewish. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
For until certain men came from Jakub, he had eaten with the Gentiles; but when they were come, he withdrew himself and separated, because he was afraid of those who were of the circumcision.
13 And the rest of the Jewish believers joined him in his hypocrisy; so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.
And the rest of the Jihudoyee also were thrown with him in this, so that Bar Naba also was led away by their partiality.
14 But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Kefa before them all, "If you, being a Jew, live as the non-Jews do, and not as the Jews do, how can you compel the non-Jews to live as the Jews do?
And when I saw that they were not walking rightly in the truth of the gospel, I said to Kipha in the presence of them all: If thou who art a Jihudoya live as an Aramoya and not Judaically, why forcest thou the Gentiles to live Judaically?
15 "We, being Jews by birth, and not non-Jewish sinners,
If we who by our nature are Jihudoyee, and are not of the Gentile sinners,
16 yet knowing that no one is justified by the works of the law but through faith in Yeshua the Messiah, even we believed in Messiah Yeshua, that we might be justified by faith in Messiah, and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.
because we know that man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jeshu Meshiha, also in him, in Jeshu Meshiha, have believed, that from the faith of the Meshiha we may be justified, and not from the works of the law; because from the works of the law shall no flesh be justified:
17 But if, while we sought to be justified in Messiah, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Messiah a servant of sin? Certainly not.
---If, while we seek to be justified through the Meshiha, we also ourselves are found sinners, is Jeshu Meshiha therefore the minister of sin? It cannot be.
18 For if I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove myself a law-breaker.
For, if those things which I destroyed I build again, I make it manifest of myself that I transgress the commandment.
19 For I, through the law, died to the law, that I might live to God.
For I by the law to the law am dead, that unto Aloha I may live:
20 I have been crucified with Messiah, and it is no longer I that live, but Messiah living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
and with the Meshiha am I crucified, and from henceforth I live not, but in me liveth Meshiha; and this that I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of Aloha, who loved me and gave himself for me.
21 I do not make void the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Messiah died for nothing."
I do not deny the grace of Aloha; for if righteousness is by the law, the Meshiha died in vain!
