Galatians 2

1 Then after fourteen years again I went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas (having taken with [me] *NK(o)*) also Titus;

Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, having taken along Titus also.

2 I went up now according to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I proclaim among the Gentiles — apart privately however to those esteemed — lest perhaps in vain I may be running or have run.

And I went up according to revelation, and I declared to them the good news that I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of repute, lest somehow I might be running or ran in vain.

3 But not even Titus who [was] with me myself, a Greek being, was compelled to be circumcised;

But not even Titus with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

4 because of even the brought in secretly false brothers, who came in by stealth to spy out the freedom of us which we have in Christ Jesus, that us (they will enslave, *N(k)O*)

But that issue was because of those false brothers smuggled in, who sneaked in to spy out our liberty that we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might enslave us,

5 to whom not even for an hour did we yield in subjection, so that the truth of the gospel may continue with you.

to whom we yielded in subjection not even for an hour, so that the truth of the good news might continue with you.

6 Of now those esteemed to be something — whatsoever formerly they were no [thing] to me makes a difference; [the] face (*no*) God of a man not does take [account of]; to me myself for the esteemed no [thing] added,

But from those who were reputed to be something (what kind they were formerly, it makes no difference to me, God does not accept a personage of man), for those who were of repute added nothing to me,

7 But on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision even as Peter [with that] of the circumcision

but to the contrary, when they saw that I was entrusted with the good news for men of uncircumcision, as Peter for men of circumcision

8 the [One] for having worked in Peter for apostleship of the circumcision did also in me myself toward the Gentiles —

(for he who was working in Peter for the apostleship for men of circumcision was also working in me for the Gentiles),

9 and having known the grace which having been given to me, James and Cephas and John, those esteemed pillars to be, [the] right hands gave to me myself and to Barnabas of fellowship, that we ourselves [should go] (indeed *o*) to the Gentiles, they however to the circumcision,

and James and Cephas and John, those who were reputed to be pillars, when they understood the grace that was given to me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship. So that we were for the Gentiles, and they for men of circumcision,

10 Only [they asked] the poor that we may remember; that also I was eager [the] same thing to do.

only that we should remember the poor, which this same thing I also was eager to do.

11 When however came (Peter *N(k)O*) to Antioch, to face his I opposed [him], because condemned he was standing.

But when Peter came to Antioch I opposed him to the face, because he was blameworthy.

12 Before for to come certain ones from James with the Gentiles he was eating; when however (they came, *NK(O)*) he was drawing back and he was separating himself being afraid of those of [the] circumcision;

For before certain men came from James he ate together with the Gentiles, but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing men of circumcision.

13 And acted hypocritically with him also the rest of [the] Jews so that even Barnabas was carried away of them by the hypocrisy.

And the other Jews also joined in hypocrisy with him, so that even Barnabas went along with their hypocrisy.

14 But when I saw that not they are walking uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said (to Peter *N(k)O*) before all; If you yourself a Jew being like a Gentile and (not *N(k)O*) like a Jew live, (why *N(k)O*) the Gentiles do you compel to Judaize?

But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly toward the truth of the good news, I said to Peter before all, If thou being a Jew, live as a Gentile and not as a Jew, why do thou compel the Gentiles to live as Jews?

15 We ourselves by birth Jews and not of [the] Gentiles sinners;

We are Jews by nature and not sinful men of the Gentiles,

16 knowing (then *no*) that not is justified a man by works of law only except through faith from Jesus Christ even we ourselves in Christ Jesus believed, that we may be justified by faith from Christ and not by works of the Law; (since *N(k)O*) by works of the Law not will be justified any flesh.

knowing that a man is not made righteous from works of law, instead through faith of Jesus Christ. And we believed in Christ Jesus, so that we might be made righteous from faith of Christ, and not from works of law, because no flesh will be made righteous from works of law.

17 If however seeking to be justified in Christ have been found also we ourselves sinners, surely not [is] Christ of sin a minister? Never would it be!

But if, while seeking to be made righteous in Christ, we ourselves were also found sinful, then is Christ an aide of sin? May it not happen!

18 If for that I had torn down, these things again I build, a transgressor myself I prove;

For if I build again these things that I tore down, I demonstrate myself a transgressor.

19 I myself for through [the] Law to [the] Law died, that to God I may live.

For I, through law, died to law, so that I might live to God.

20 to Christ I have been crucified with; I live now no longer no longer I myself, lives however in me myself Christ; that which then now I live in [the] flesh, through faith I live that from the Son of God (and Christ *O*) the [One who] having loved me and having given up Himself for me.

I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And what I now live in flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.

21 Not I do set aside the grace of God; if for through [the] Law righteousness [is], then Christ for naught died.

I do not disregard the grace of God, for if righteousness is through law, then Christ died in vain.
