Galatians 2

1 After 14 years passed, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas. I took Titus also.

دوای چواردە ساڵ لەگەڵ بەرناباس گەڕامەوە ئۆرشەلیم و تیتۆسیشم لەگەڵ خۆم برد.

2 But [I tell you that] I went up there because of what God revealed to me. [It was not because someone there asked me to come]. I told people what was the good message that I was preaching in regions where non-Jews live. But I talked privately to those whom your new teachers highly respect. I did that in order that what I was doing and what I had done [MET] might not become useless [MET] [as a result of people rejecting my message because they thought that I was teaching something that was not true].

گەڕانەوەکەم بەگوێرەی ئاشکراکردنێک بوو و ئەو پەیامەی ئینجیل کە لەنێو نەتەوەکان جاڕی دەدەم، تەنها خستمە بەردەم گەورە پیاوانی کڵێسا، تاکو ئەوەی بۆی ڕادەکەم و ڕامکردووە بەفیڕۆ نەڕوات.

3 But [even though the leaders of the believers usually insisted that when non-Jews trusted in Christ someone must circumcise them], they did not even insist that Titus be circumcised, even though he was a Greek man who was with me.

بەڵام هەرچەندە تیتۆس کە لەگەڵم بوو یۆنانی بوو، زۆریان لێ نەکرد خەتەنە بکرێت.

4 [I talked to them privately] because some people [successfully] pretended that they were fellow believers and associated with the true believers. They did that in order that they might observe closely what we do because we are free [from having to obey all the Jewish laws and rituals] because of our close relationship with Christ Jesus [MET]. Those people wanted to make us [like] slaves [MET] [of those rituals by convincing us that we cannot trust Christ solely but that we must also obey all the Jewish rituals].

ئەم بابەتە لەوەوە سەری هەڵدا هەندێک برایانی درۆزن دزەیان کردبووە ناومان. هاتبوون بمانکەن بە کۆیلە لە ڕێگەی سیخوڕیکردن لەسەر ئەم ئازادییەی کە بەهۆی یەکبوونمان لەگەڵ عیسای مەسیح هەمانە.

5 But not even briefly did we [(exc)] do what they wanted [about circumcision. We(exc) resisted them] in order that the truth of the message about Christ might continue to [benefit] you.

بۆ کاتژمێرێکیش ملکەچیان نەبووین، تاکو ڕاستی ئینجیل لەگەڵتان بمێنێتەوە.

6 The [leaders in Jerusalem], whom your new teachers respect, did not add anything to what I preach. [And I would add that] what status those leaders had did not influence me, because God does not favor certain/important persons [IDM] more than others.

بەڵام ئەوانەی بە گەورە پیاو دادەنران، هەرچییەک بن، بەلای منەوە گرنگ نییە، چونکە خودا تەماشای ڕواڵەتی مرۆڤ ناکات، ئەوان هیچیان بۆ پەیامەکەم زیاد نەکرد.

7 Instead of those leaders adding to the message that I tell people, they understood that I had been given the good message {God had given the good message to me} so that I might proclaim it to the non-Jews [MTY], just like [God] had given the good message to Peter so that he might tell it to those who are Jews [MTY].

بەڵکو بە پێچەوانەوە، بینییان کە پەیامی ئینجیل بۆ ناجولەکەکان بە من سپێردراوە، هەروەک پەیامی ئینجیل بۆ جولەکەکان بە پەترۆس سپێردراوە،

8 That is, just like [God] had empowered/authorized Peter in order that he might be an apostle [to bring God’s message] to the Jews [MTY], he also had empowered/authorized me in order that I might be an apostle to [bring his message to] the non-Jews.

چونکە خودا بەهۆی پەترۆسەوە وەک نێردراو بۆ جولەکەکان کاری دەکرد، لە منیشدا بۆ ناجولەکەکان کاری دەکرد.

9 And [those leaders] knew that God had kindly given to me this special work. So James, Peter, and John, the ones whom your new teachers [respect because they are] leaders [MET] [of the believers], shook hands with us [IDM] [to show that they agreed that Barnabas and I are serving the Lord just like they are, and that we are preaching the same message that they are preaching]. They also agreed that we [(exc)] are the ones whom God was sending to [tell his message to] non-Jews, but that God is sending them to [tell his message to] Jews [MTY].

کاتێک یاقوب و پەترۆس و یۆحەنا کە بە کۆڵەکە دانرابوون، بەم نیعمەتەیان زانی کە بە من دراوە، ئەوسا ئەوان دەستی ڕاستی هاوبەشییان بۆ من و بەرناباس درێژکرد، تاکو ئێمە بۆ لای نەتەوەکان بچین و ئەوانیش بۆ لای جولەکەکان بچن.

10 They merely urged that we [(exc)] still remember to help the poor [fellow believers who live in Jerusalem]. That is exactly what I have been eager to do.

تەنها داوایان کرد هەژاران لەیاد نەکەین، ئەمەش شتێکە هەمیشە کۆششم بۆی کردووە.

11 But [later while I was at] Antioch [city], after Peter came there, I told him directly [SYN] that what he was doing was wrong.

بەڵام کاتێک پەترۆس هاتە ئەنتاکیا، ڕووبەڕوو بەربەرەکانێم کرد، لەبەر ئەوەی گلەیی لەسەر بوو،

12 [This is what happened]: [Peter went to Antioch and started eating regularly with non-Jewish believers there]. Later there were certain [Jewish believers who] came [to Antioch who claimed that] James, [the leader of the congregations in Jerusalem], had sent them. But when [those certain] men came, Peter gradually quit [eating] with the non-Jewish believers and would not associate with them. He was afraid that the Jewish [believers from Jerusalem would criticize him for associating with non-Jews].

چونکە پێش ئەوەی کەسانێک لەلای یاقوبەوە بێن، ئەو لەگەڵ ناجولەکەکان نانی دەخوارد، بەڵام کاتێک ئەوان هاتن، لە ترسی ئەو تاقمەی کە دەڵێن دەبێ باوەڕدار خەتەنە بکرێت، خۆی کێشایەوە.

13 Also, the other Jewish [believers who were in Antioch] [SYN] acted (insincerely/in a way that they knew was not right) along with [Peter]. The result was that they convinced even Barnabas to [stop associating with the non-Jewish believers]!

جولەکەکانی دیکەش لەگەڵیدا دەستیان بە دووڕوویی کرد، تەنانەت بەرناباسیش بە دووڕووییان چەواشە بوو.

14 But when I realized that they were not acting according to the truth of the message about Christ, [when] all [the fellow believers there] were present, I told Peter [the following]: “Although you [(sg)] are a Jew, [you often conduct yourself] like non-Jews [do by disregarding Jewish laws about food. When you are among non-Jews], you [(sg)] do not customarily conduct yourself at all like Jews [do]. So, (now it is wrong that you [(sg)] are causing non-Jews [to think that they must obey all] the Jewish rituals and customs!/why are you [(sg)] causing non-Jews [to think that they must obey all] the Jewish rituals and customs?) [RHQ]”

کاتێک بینیم بەگوێرەی ڕێگای ڕاستی پەیامی ئینجیل ناڕۆن، لەبەرچاوی هەمووان بە پەترۆسم گوت: «ئەگەر تۆ جولەکەی، وەک ناجولەکە دەژیت نەک وەکو جولەکە، ئیتر چۆن ناجولەکەکان ناچار دەکەیت نەریتی جولەکەکان پەیڕەو بکەن؟

15 Some of us [believers] were born as Jews. We [(exc)] were not born as non-Jews. [We Jews have always considered non-Jews to be] ‘sinners’ [because they do not obey the Jewish rituals and laws].

«ئێمە بە جولەکەیی لەدایک بووین و لە نەتەوە گوناهبارەکان نین،

16 But we [(exc)] now know that it is not because some person obeys the laws [that God gave to Moses] that [God] erases the record of that person’s sins. [God erases the record of a person’s sins only if that person trusts in what Jesus Christ has done]. Even we [(exc)] Jews trusted Christ Jesus. We [(exc)] did that in order that [God] would erase the record of our sins because of our trusting Christ, and not because of our obeying the laws [that God gave to Moses. God has said that] he will [never] erase the record of people’s sins just because of their obeying those laws.

دەزانین مرۆڤ بە کارکردن بە شەریعەت بێتاوان ناکرێ، بەڵکو بە باوەڕ بە عیسای مەسیح. جا ئێمە باوەڕمان بە عیسای مەسیح هێنا تاکو بە باوەڕ بە مەسیح بێتاوان بکرێین، ئەمەش نەک بە کارکردن بە شەریعەت، چونکە لە ڕێی کارکردن بە شەریعەت کەس بێتاوان ناکرێت.

17 Furthermore, because we [(exc) Jews] desired that [God] would erase the record of our sins because of our relationship with Christ, [it means that] we realized that we ourselves were sinners [like non-Jews, whom we called] sinners, [because we(exc) also were not obeying the Jewish rituals and laws]. [But] ([we(inc) certainly cannot conclude] that it is Christ who causes us to sin./[should we conclude] that it is Christ who causes us to sin?) [RHQ] [No, Christ] certainly does not [cause anyone to sin].

«بەڵام ئەگەر ئێمە لە هەوڵدانمان بۆ بێتاوانبوون بە مەسیح، خۆمان دۆزییەوە کە گوناهبارین، ئیتر ئایا مەسیح خزمەتکاری گوناهە؟ بێگومان نەخێر!

18 So if I should again believe [that God would erase the record of my sins because of my obeying the laws that he gave to Moses] [MET], [I would be like a man who] rebuilds an old building that he tore down. It would [soon] be clear that I am one who disobeys those same laws [that God gave to Moses].

ئەگەر من شتێک بنیاد بنێمەوە کە لەپێشدا تێکمدابێت، ئەوا دەیسەلمێنم سەرپێچیکارم.

19 When [I realized that I could not earn God’s favor] by [obeying] the laws [that he gave to Moses, I decided not] to [respond to what those laws demanded] [MET], [just like] a dead person [does not respond to anything]. Now I live to [honor/serve] God.

«چونکە لە ڕێگەی شەریعەت بۆ شەریعەت مردم، تاکو بۆ خودا بژیم.

20 [It is as though] I was with Christ when he was crucified {died on the cross} [MET] (OR, [It is as though] my [old way of life ended when] Christ died on the cross.) No longer am I [directing the way I behave as I did before I believed in Christ]. Now Christ [is directing how] I [behave. And whatever I do] now while I live, I do it trusting in God’s Son. He is the one who loved me and offered himself [as a sacrifice] for me.

من لەگەڵ مەسیح لە خاچ درام، ئیتر من نیم ئەوەی دەژیێت، بەڵکو مەسیحە لە مندا دەژیێت. ئێستاش کەوا بە جەستە دەژیم، ئەوا بە باوەڕ بە کوڕی خودا دەژیم، ئەوەی منی خۆشویست و خۆی کردە قوربانی بۆ من.

21 I am not rejecting [as useless] what God [did for me] ([kindly/that I did not deserve]), [as my opponents are doing. I fully accept that God saved me by acting kindly towards me]. If it is because people [obey the] laws [that God gave to Moses] that God erases the record of their sins, then Christ died (for nothing/needlessly).

من نیعمەتی خودا پووچەڵ ناکەمەوە، چونکە ئەگەر بێتاوانبوون بە شەریعەت بووایە، ئەوا مردنی مەسیح بێ سوود دەبوو.»
