Galatians 2
1 After that, fourteen years later, I, again, went up unto Jerusalem, with Barnabas, taking with me Titus also;
Kumi mimvu mi nya bu mivioka, ndiyenda ku Yelusalemi va kimosi ayi Balinabasi. Ndinata Tite.
2 And I went up by revelation, and laid before them the glad-message which I proclaim among the nations; privately, however, to them of repute, —lest, by any means, in vain, I should be running, or had run.
Ndiyenda ku Yelusalemi mu tumukina tsongolo yi Nzambi. Ndiba sudikisa Nsamu Wumboti wowo ndieti longa kuidi Bapakanu. Ndivanga buawu mu kinsueki kuidi batu bobo baba monikanga banga mintuadisi bila ndisia zola ko ti kisalu kiama kithama ayi ki buabu kimonika kiphamba.
3 But, not even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised; —
Vayi ka diambu ko Tite, wuba diata yama, niandi wuba muisi Ngelese, kasia kuiku ko mu zengisa nituꞌandi yi kibakala.
4 But, [this was] because of the false brethren secretly introduced, —who, indeed, came in secretly to spy out our freedom, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: —
Momo mavangimina mu diambu di bakhomba zi luvunu zifielumuka kota va tuba muingi zizaba boso buididi kiphuanza kieto kitutambula kuidi Yesu Klisto; mayindu mawu maba mu kutukitula bavika.
5 Unto whom, not even for an hour, gave we place by the [required] submission, —in order that, the truth of the glad-message, might still abide with you.
Vayi tumanga kueto kuba tumukina, ka diambu ko mu thangu yimosi muingi kiedika ki Nsamu Wumboti kizingila mu beno.
6 Moreover, from them who were reputed to be something, —whatsoever at one time, they were, maketh no difference to me, God accepteth not a man’s person, —unto me, in fact, they who were of repute added nothing further;
Vayi mu diambu di batu bobo beti kukibanzila ti badi mintuadisi, ka diambu ko buevi babela; diodi disi kuthala ko, bila Nzambi katalanga zizi ko. Batu bobo basia buela kadi diambu dimosi ko mu malongi mama.
7 But, on the contrary, —when they saw that I had been entrusted with the glad-message to the uncircumcision, even as, Peter, [with that] to the circumcision,
Muaki bamona ti Nzambi wuthuma mu longa Nsamu Wumboti kuidi Bapakanu banga Piela bu katumunu kuidi Bayuda.
8 For, he that energised in Peter, into an apostleship to the circumcision, energised also in me, for the nations, —
Bila mutu wowo wusadila Piela muba mvuala kuidi Bayuda; niandi wusala mu minu muba mvuala kuidi Bapakanu.
9 And when they perceived the favour which had been given unto me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave, the right hand of fellowship, unto me and Barnabas, in order that, we, [should go] unto the nations, and, they, unto the circumcision: —
Diawu Zaki, Piela ayi Yowani, bobo badi banga makunzi ma dibundu, bu bamona nlemvo wowo nditambula, bayiza kutuvana, Balinabasi ayi minu, mboti yoyo yimmonisa ti tueka mu kithuadi kimosi. Batukindisa mu kuenda kuidi Bapakanu bosi bawu benda kuidi Bayuda.
10 Only that we should remember, the destitute, —as to which I had given diligence, this very thing, to do.
Batukamba tutebukilanga minsukami moyo. Buawu ndieta vanga.
11 But, when Cephas came unto Antioch, to the face, [even], him, I resisted, because he stood condemned;
Vayi Piela bu kayiza ku Antioshe; ndimanga kunkikinina va meso ma batu bila mu nzimbala kaba.
12 For, before that certain came from James, with them of the nations, used he to eat; whereas, when they came, he used to withdraw, and keep himself separate, fearing them of the circumcision;
Bila tuamina batu bobo baba kuidi Zaki biza, Piela wuba dianga va kimosi ayi Bapakanu. Vayi batu bobo baba kuidi Zaki bu bayiza, Piela wukivengumuna va ndambu ayi wuvambana yawu bila boma kamona Bayuda.
13 And the rest of the Jews [also] used hypocrisy with him, so that, even Barnabas, was carried away by their hypocrisy.
Bayuda bankaka bavukumuka mu mayuya ayi Balinabasi mamvandi wuvukumuka mu mayuya mawu.
14 But, when I saw that they were not walking with straightforwardness as regardeth the truth of the glad-message, I said unto Cephas, before all: If, thou, although, a Jew, like them of the nations, and not like the Jews, dost live, how dost thou compel, them of the nations, to live like Jews?
Vayi bu ndimona ti bakadi buela diata mu bukiedika, boso buididi Nsamu Wumboti, buna nditubidila Piela va meso ma batu boso ti: “Enati ngeyo Nyuda, wunzingila banga bu nzingilanga Bapakanu vayi bika banga Bayuda, buna buevi wulembo kuikila Bapakanu bazingila banga bueta zingila Bayuda e?”
15 We, by nature Jews, and not sinners from among the nations,
Beto tuidi Bayuda tona mu mbutukuluꞌeto vayi tuisi bankua masumu ko va khatitsika Bapakanu.
16 Knowing, however, that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, [nor at all] save through faith in Christ Jesus; even we, on Christ Jesus, believed, that we might be declared righteous—by faith in Christ, and not by works of law; because, by works of law, shall no flesh be declared righteous.
Muaki tuzebi bumboti ti mutu kalendi kituka ko wusonga mu kinzikanga mavanga ma mina, vayi mu minu kaka mu Yesu Klisto. Diawu beto mamveto tuwilukila Yesu Klisto muingi tukitulu batu basonga mu minu Klisto vayi bika mu mavanga ma mina; bila kuisi ko mutu wela kitulu wusonga mu diambu di kinzikanga mavanga ma mina.
17 Now, if in seeking to be declared righteous in Christ we, ourselves also, were found sinners, —is Christ, therefore, a minister, of sin? Far be it!
Vayi bu tulembo tombi monika batu basonga mu Klisto, diodi dimmonisa ti beto mamveto tuidi bankua masumu. Diodi dinsundula ti Klisto widi mvangi wu masumu e? Nana.
18 For, if, the things that I pulled down, these, again, I build, a transgressor, I prove, myself, to be.
Bila enati mambu momo nditiolumuna minu veka, ndikikitudi buela kumatunga diaka, buna ndieka mbundudi wu mina.
19 For, I, through means of law, unto law, died, that, unto God, I might live: —
Bila mu diambu di mina, minu ndifua muingi ndizinga mu Nzambi;
20 With Christ, have I been crucified; and, living no longer, am, I, but, living in me, is, Christ, —while, so far as I now do live in flesh, by faith, I live—The faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up in my behalf.
Minu ndibandu va dikulusi va kimosi ayi Klisto. Kadi sia ti minu ndinzinga vayi Klisto niandi wunzinga mu minu. Ayi luzingu ndilembo zingi mu nsuni, mu minu ndilembo luzingila; minu kioki kidi yama mu Muana wu Nzambi, mutu wowo wunzola ayi wukiyekula niandi veka mu diambu diama.
21 I do not set aside the favour of God; for, if, through law, is righteousness, then, Christ, without cause, died.
Ndikadi vunza nlemvo wu Nzambi, bila enati mu Mina mutu kalenda kitukila wusonga buna mu phamba kuandi Klisto kafuila.
