1 Mĩaka ikũmi na ĩna yathira nĩndambatire rĩngĩ Jerusalemu, na ihinda rĩĩrĩ tũgĩthiĩ hamwe na Baranaba o na tũgĩthiĩ na Tito.
Then after fourteen years again I went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas (having taken with [me] *NK(o)*) also Titus;
2 Ndathiire tondũ Ngai nĩanguũrĩirie thiĩ kuo, na nĩguo ngataarĩrie atũmwo Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega ũrĩa hunjagĩria andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ. No ndataarĩirie o arĩa monekaga marĩ atongoria hatarĩ andũ angĩ, nĩgeetha gũtigatuĩke atĩ ihenya rĩrĩa ndatengʼeraga, o na kana rĩrĩa ndatengʼerete, rĩarĩ rĩa tũhũ.
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.
3 No o na Tito, ũrĩa warĩ hamwe na niĩ, ndaringĩrĩirio kũrua, o na gũtuĩka aarĩ Mũyunani.
But not even Titus who [was] with me myself, a Greek being, was compelled to be circumcised;
4 Ũhoro ũyũ wa kũrua wagĩire ho tondũ nĩ kwarĩ na ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ a maheeni arĩa maatoonyete gatagatĩ gaitũ na hitho marĩ athigaani nĩguo matuĩrie ũhoro wa wĩyathi ũrĩa tũkoragwo naguo tũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ, makĩenda gũtũtua ngombo.
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*)
5 Tũtietĩkĩrire ũhoro wao o na hanini, nĩgeetha ma ya Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega ĩtũũre na inyuĩ.
to whom not even for an hour did we yield in subjection, so that the truth of the gospel may continue with you.
6 Nao andũ arĩa moonekaga taarĩ o anene-rĩ, (harĩ niĩ hatiarĩ na ũtiganu o ũrĩa mangĩakorirwo marĩ, nĩgũkorwo Ngai ndaroraga mũndũ ũrĩa ahaana) andũ acio gũtirĩ ũndũ moongereire harĩ ndũmĩrĩri yakwa.
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,
7 O na rĩrĩ, o nĩmoonire atĩ niĩ nĩndehokeirwo wĩra wa kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, o ta ũrĩa Petero eehokeirwo wĩra wa kũhunjĩria Ayahudi.
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
8 Nĩgũkorwo Ngai ũrĩa warutaga wĩra thĩinĩ wa ũtungata wa Petero arĩ mũtũmwo kũrĩ Ayahudi, nowe warutaga wĩra ũtungata-inĩ wakwa ndĩ mũtũmwo kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ.
the [One] for having worked in Peter for apostleship of the circumcision did also in me myself toward the Gentiles —
9 Ningĩ Jakubu, na Petero, na Johana, arĩa moonagwo marĩ itugĩ cia gũtiira kanitha-rĩ, nĩmatwamũkĩrire tũrĩ hamwe na Baranaba na guoko kwa ũrĩo kwa ngwatanĩro, rĩrĩa maamenyire wega wa Ngai ũrĩa ndaaheetwo. Nĩmetĩkĩrire atĩ ithuĩ tũthiĩ tũkahunjĩrie andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, nao mathiĩ kũrĩ Ayahudi.
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,
10 Ũndũ ũrĩa maatwĩrire twĩkage nĩ atĩ tũririkanage athĩĩni na noguo ũndũ ũrĩa niĩ mwene ndaarĩ na kĩyo gĩa gwĩka.
Only [they asked] the poor that we may remember; that also I was eager [the] same thing to do.
11 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Petero ookire Antiokia, nĩndamũkararirie mbere ya andũ tondũ nĩahĩtĩtie mũno.
When however came (Peter *N(k)O*) to Antioch, to face his I opposed [him], because condemned he was standing.
12 Andũ amwe moimĩte kũrĩ Jakubu matanakinya-rĩ, Petero nĩarĩĩanagĩra na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, no rĩrĩa maakinyire, akĩmeherera, na akĩĩamũrania na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ tondũ nĩetigagĩra andũ arĩa maarĩ a gĩkundi kĩa andũ arĩa maruaga.
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;
13 O na Ayahudi arĩa angĩ makĩnyiitanĩra na Petero ũhinga-inĩ wake, o nginya o na Baranaba akĩhĩtithio nĩ ũhinga ũcio wao.
And acted hypocritically with him also the rest of [the] Jews so that even Barnabas was carried away of them by the hypocrisy.
14 Rĩrĩa ndonire atĩ matiekaga kũringana na ma ya Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, ngĩĩra Petero atĩrĩ, andũ othe makĩiguaga, “Angĩkorwo wee ũrĩ Mũyahudi, ũtũũraga na mĩtugo ya andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ na ti ta Mũyahudi-rĩ, ũngĩkĩhota atĩa kũhatĩrĩria andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ atĩ nĩguo marũmĩrĩre mĩtugo ya Ayahudi?
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?
15 “Ithuĩ arĩa tũciarĩtwo tũrĩ Ayahudi na tũtarĩ ehia ta andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ-rĩ,
We ourselves by birth Jews and not of [the] Gentiles sinners;
16 nĩtũũĩ atĩ mũndũ ndatuĩkaga mũthingu nĩ ũndũ wa gwathĩkĩra watho, no atuĩkaga mũthingu nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia Jesũ Kristũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na ithuĩ twĩtĩkĩtie Kristũ Jesũ nĩguo tũtuuo athingu nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia Kristũ, no ti ũndũ wa gwathĩkĩra watho, tondũ gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgaatuuo mũthingu nĩ ũndũ wa gwathĩkĩra watho.
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.
17 “Angĩgĩkorwo rĩrĩa tũgũcaria gũtuuo athingu nĩ Kristũ kuonanagia atĩ ithuĩ ene tũrĩ ehia-rĩ, ũguo nĩ kuuga atĩ Kristũ atungatagĩra mehia? Hĩ! Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo!
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!
18 Angĩkorwo nĩ ngwaka rĩngĩ kĩrĩa ndaanangire-rĩ, nĩkuonania atĩ niĩ nĩnyunĩte watho.
If for that I had torn down, these things again I build, a transgressor myself I prove;
19 Nĩgũkorwo na ũndũ wa watho nĩndakuĩrĩire watho ũcio nĩguo ndũũre muoyo ndĩ wa Ngai.
I myself for through [the] Law to [the] Law died, that to God I may live.
20 Niĩ nĩndĩkĩtie kwambanĩrio hamwe na Kristũ, na rĩu ti niĩ ndũũraga muoyo, no Kristũ nĩwe ũtũũraga muoyo thĩinĩ wakwa. Muoyo ũrĩa ndũũraga mwĩrĩ-inĩ ũyũ ndũũraga na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia Mũrũ wa Ngai, ũrĩa wanyendire na akĩĩruta nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
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.
21 Ndingĩĩtĩkĩra gũtua wega wa Ngai kĩndũ gĩa tũhũ, tondũ kũngĩtuĩka atĩ ũthingu wonekaga nĩ ũndũ wa watho-rĩ, Kristũ aakuire tũhũ!”
Not I do set aside the grace of God; if for through [the] Law righteousness [is], then Christ for naught died.
