Pāvila Vēstule Galatiešiem 2
1 Pēc tam, pēc četrpadsmit gadiem, es atkal nogāju uz Jeruzālemi ar Barnabu, arī Titu paņemdams līdz.
Then, fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and I took Titus also with me.
2 Bet es turp nogāju caur kādu parādīšanu un tiem to evaņģēliju, ko es sludināju starp pagāniem, liku priekšā un sevišķi tiem jo cienīgiem, lai es velti neteku vai nebūtu skrējis.
And I went up because of a revelation, and communicated to them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who are of reputation, lest, by any means, I should run or had run in vain.
3 Bet arī Titus, kas bija ar mani, Grieķis būdams, netapa spiests apgraizīties;
But not even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.
4 Bet to ielīdušo viltīgo brāļu dēļ, kas bija iezagušies, izlūkot mūsu brīvību, kas mums ir iekš Kristus Jēzus, ka tie mūs darītu par kalpiem, -
I acted thus indeed on account of false brethren, stealthily brought in, who stole in to spy out our freedom, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage,
5 Tiem mēs ne acumirkli neesam ceļu griezuši nedz paklausījuši, lai evaņģēlija patiesība pie jums paliktu.
to whom we yielded in submission, not even for an hour, in order that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.
6 Bet no tiem, kas bija jo cienīgi (kādi tie jebkad bijuši, tas man vienalga, Dievs neuzlūko cilvēka vaigu), šie jo cienīgie man neko nav uzlikuši klāt.
But from those who were supposed to be something; (what they were is a matter of no importance to me: God does not accept the person of man; ) they, indeed, who were supposed to be something, communicated no additional truth to me;
7 Bet turpretī, kad tie redzēja, ka evaņģēlijs man ir uzticēts pie tiem, kam ir priekšāda, tā kā Pēterim pie tiem, kas ir apgraizīti,
but; on the other hand, seeing that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter was with that of the circumcision,
8 (Jo Tas, kas ar Pēteri bijis spēcīgs apustuļu amatā pie apgraizītiem, Tas arī bijis spēcīgs ar mani pie pagāniem) -
(for he who gave efficiency to Peter, for the apostleship of the circumcision, gave efficiency to me also, as an apostle for the Gentiles, )
9 Un kad Jēkabs, Kefas un Jānis, ko turēja par pīlāriem, atzina to žēlastību, kas man bija dota; tad tie man un Barnabam roku deva uz biedrību, lai mēs mācītu pagānus un viņi (mācītu) apgraizītos;
and knowing the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, but they to the circumcision,
10 Tikai lai mēs nabagus pieminētu, - un es arī esmu rūpējies to izdarīt.
requesting only that we would remember the poor, which same thing I have been diligent in doing.
11 Un kad Pēteris bija nācis uz Antioķiju, tad es tam acīs stājos pretī, jo viņš bija apsūdzams.
But when Peter came to Antioch, I openly opposed him, because he had incurred blame.
12 Jo, pirms nekā no Jēkaba kādi bija atnākuši, viņš ēda kopā ar pagāniem; bet kad tie bija atnākuši, tad viņš atrāvās un nošķīrās, bīdamies tos no apgraizīšanas.
For, before certain persons came from James, he ate with the Gentiles: but, when they had come, he withdrew, and separated himself, because he feared those who were of the circumcision.
13 Un līdz ar viņu arī tie citi Jūdi apgrēkojās ar liekulību, tā ka arī Barnaba līdz tapa nogriezts caur viņu liekulību.
And the other Jews, also, acted hypocritically with him, so that even Barnabas was led away by their hypocrisy.
14 Bet kad es redzēju, ka tie nestaigā pareizi pēc evaņģēlija patiesības, tad es Pēterim sacīju visiem dzirdot: Ja tu Jūds būdams dzīvo ka pagāns un nekā Jūds, ko tu spiedi pagānus, lai tie dzīvo kā Jūdi?
But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter, before them all: If you, being a Jew, live after the manner of the Gentiles, and not after the manner of the Jews, why do you compel the Gen tiles to observe Jewish customs?
15 Mēs no dzimuma esam Jūdi un ne grēcinieki no pagāniem;
We, who are Jews by birth, and not Gentile sinners,
16 Bet zinādami, ka cilvēks netop taisnots caur bauslības darbiem, bet caur Jēzus Kristus ticību, arī mēs esam ticējuši uz Kristu Jēzu, lai topam taisnoti caur Kristus ticību un ne caur bauslības darbiem: tāpēc ka caur bauslības darbiem neviena miesa netaps taisnota.
knowing that a man is not justified by works of law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed on Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of law: because, by works of law no flesh shall be justified.
17 Bet ja mēs, kas meklējam tapt taisnoti iekš Kristus, arī paši topam atrasti grēcinieki, - vai tad Kristus ir grēka kalps? Nemaz ne!
But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are also found sinners, is Christ, therefore, the minister of sin? It can not be.
18 Jo ja es to, ko esmu nolauzis, atkal uztaisu, tad pats kļūstu par pārkāpēju.
For if I build again those things which I have destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
19 Jo es caur bauslību bauslībai esmu miris, lai dzīvotu Dievam.
For, through law, I have died to law, that I might live to God.
20 Es ar Kristu esmu krustā sists, bet es dzīvoju, tomēr vairs ne es, bet iekš manis dzīvo Kristus, un ko es tagad dzīvoju miesā, to dzīvoju ticībā uz To Dieva Dēlu, kas mani mīlējis un Pats par mani nodevies.
I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live; no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
21 Es nenicināju Dieva žēlastību; jo ja taisnība ir caur bauslību, tad Kristus velti miris.
I do not set aside the grace of God: for if righteousness be through law, then Christ has died in vain.
