Pāvila Vēstule Galatiešiem 2
1 Pēc tam, pēc četrpadsmit gadiem, es atkal nogāju uz Jeruzālemi ar Barnabu, arī Titu paņemdams līdz.
Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking 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.
I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach amongst the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, 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, being 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, -
This was because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who stole in to spy out our liberty 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 gave no place in the way of subjection, not for an hour, that the truth of the Good News might continue 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 reputed to be important—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God doesn’t show partiality to man—they, I say, who were respected imparted nothing 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 to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcised, even as Peter with the Good News for the circumcised—
8 (Jo Tas, kas ar Pēteri bijis spēcīgs apustuļu amatā pie apgraizītiem, Tas arī bijis spēcīgs ar mani pie pagāniem) -
for he who worked through Peter in the apostleship with the circumcised also worked through me with 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 when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, those who were reputed to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision.
10 Tikai lai mēs nabagus pieminētu, - un es arī esmu rūpējies to izdarīt.
They only asked us to remember the poor—which very thing I was also zealous to do.
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 resisted him to his face, because he stood condemned.
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 some people came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing 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 rest of the Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away with 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 didn’t walk uprightly according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Peter before them all, “If you, being a Jew, live as the Gentiles do, and not as the Jews do, why do you compel the Gentiles to live as the Jews do?
15 Mēs no dzimuma esam Jūdi un ne grēcinieki no pagāniem;
“We, being Jews by nature 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.
yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.
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 sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!
18 Jo ja es to, ko esmu nolauzis, atkal uztaisu, tad pats kļūstu par pārkāpēju.
For if I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove myself a law-breaker.
19 Jo es caur bauslību bauslībai esmu miris, lai dzīvotu Dievam.
For I through the law died to the 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, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me.
21 Es nenicināju Dieva žēlastību; jo ja taisnība ir caur bauslību, tad Kristus velti miris.
I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”
