Bagalatia 2
1 Mme erile morago ga dingwaga di le lesome le bone ka boela kwa Jerusalema gape, ka nako eo ke ne ke patilwe ke Barenabase; mme Tito le ene a tsamaya le rona.
Then fourteen years after I went again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with [me] also.
2 Ke ne ka ya teng ke tshotse ditaelo tse di tlhomameng di tswa kwa Modimong gore ke ye go gakololana le bakaulengwe teng koo kaga molaetsa o ke neng ke o rerela Badichaba. Ke ne ka buisanya le baeteledipele ba phuthego kwa thoko gore botlhe ba tlhaloganye se ke neng ke ntse ke se ruta, mme ke ne ka solofela gore ba tlaa dumela gore di siame.
And I went by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them who were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run in vain.
3 Mme ba ne ba dumela; ga ba ise ba ke ba rate le gore Tito yo o neng a mpatile a rupisiwe, ntswa e ne e le Modichaba.
But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
4 Le potso eo tota e ka bo e sa bodiwa fa e se ka ntlha ya bangwe ba go kabong gotwe ke “Bakeresete” teng koo, mme e le Bakeresete ba e seng bone—ba ba neng ba tletse go re tsaya dinopolo le go bona gore kgololesego e re neng re e e ja monate mo go Keresete Jesu e ne e le efe, jaaka gore a re ne re obamela melao ya Sejuta kgotsa nnyaa. Ba ne ba leka go re golegelela rotlhe mo melaong ya bone ya Sejuta, makgoba mo dikeetaneng.
And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
5 Mme ga re a ka ra reetsa le fa e le ka lobakanyana, gonne re ne re sa batle go lo tlhakanya ditlhogo ka go akanya gore poloko e ka bonwa ka go rupisiwa le ka go obamela melao ya Sejuta.
To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6 Mme baeteledipele ba bagolo ba phuthego ba ba neng ba le teng koo ba tlhoka se ba neng ba ka tlatsa ka sone se ke neng ke se rera. (Legale go nna baeteledipele ba bagolo ga bone go ne go sa reye sepe mo go nna, gonne rotlhe re tshwana fela mo Modimong).
But of these, who seemed to be somewhat, (whatever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person: ) for they who seemed [to be somewhat], in conference added nothing to me:
7 Tota erile Petoro le Jakobe le Johane, ba ba neng ba itsege e le dipinagare tsa phuthego, ba bona ka fa Modimo o ntirisitseng ka teng thata mo go gapeng Badichaba, fela jaaka Petoro a ne a segofaditswe thata mo go rereleng Bajuta, gonne Modimo o ne o neela mongwe le mongwe wa rona dineo tsa botlhokwa, ba ne ba re neela diatla, Barenabase le nna ba bo ba re kgothatsa gore re tswelele ka tlhamalalo mo go rereleng Badichaba fa bone ba tswelela ka thero ya bone mo Bajuteng.
But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed to me, as [the gospel] of the circumcision [was] to Peter;
(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me towards the Gentiles: )
And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] to the heathen, and they to the circumcision.
10 Kgakololo fela e ba neng ba e ntsha e ne e le ya gore re tshwanetse go gakologelwa go thusa bahumanegi ka malatsi otlhe, mme le nna ke ne ke tlhwaafaletse gone go dira jalo.
Only [they would] that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
11 Mme erile fa Petoro a tla mo Antioka ka tshwanelwa ke go mo ganetsa mo pontsheng, ke gatelela thata kgatlhanong le se a neng a se dira gonne se ne se sa siama gotlhelele.
But when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
12 Gonne erile fela lwa ntlha fa a goroga a bo a a ja le Bakeresete ba Badichaba (ba ba neng ba sa tshwenyege ka go rupa le melao e mengwe e mentsi ya Sejuta). Mme erile moraganyana fa ditsala dingwe tsa ga Jakobe tsa Sejuta di tla, a seka a tlhola a a ja le Badichaba gonne o ne a tshaba se badira melao ba ba Sejuta ba tlaa se buang, gonne ba ne ba sa khutlise go bua ba re, thupiso e botlhokwa mo polokong;
For before that certain came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles: but when they had come, he withdrew, and separated himself, fearing them who were of the circumcision.
13 mme Bakeresete botlhe ba Bajuta le Barenabase tota ba fetoga baitimokanyi, ba etsa Petoro, le fa tota ba ne ba tlhaloganya botoka.
And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; so that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
14 Erile fa ke bona se se diragalang le gore ba ne ba sa ikanyege kaga se tota ba neng ba se dumela, le gore ba ne ba sa sala morago boammaaruri jwa Mafoko a a Molemo, ka raya Petoro fa pele ga ba bangwe botlhe ka re, “Le fa wena o le Mojuta ka go tsalwa, ga o bolo go latlha melao ya Sejuta; jalo he, ke eng fa ka tshoganetso o leka gore badichaba ba, ba e obamela?
But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before [them] all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
15 Wena le nna re Bajuta ka go tsalwa, e seng Badichaba fela ba baleofi,
We [who are] Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
16 mme rona Bakeresete ba Bajuta re santse re itse sentle gore ga re kake ra nna tshiamo mo Modimong ka go tshegetsa melao ya rona ya Sejuta, fa e se ka tumelo mo go Jesu Keresete go tlosa maleo a rona. Mme jalo he le rona, re ikantse Jesu Keresete, gore re tle re amogelwe ke Modimo ka ntlha ya tumelo, eseng ka ntlha ya gore re obametse melao ya Sejuta. Gonne ga go ope yo o tlaa bolokwang ka ntlha ya go e obamela.”
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
17 Mme re tlaa reng fa re ikanya Keresete go re boloka mme re bo re iphitlhela re le molato, le gore ga re kake ra bolokwa kwa ntle ga go rupisiwa le go obamela melao e mengwe yotlhe ya Sejuta? A ga re na go tlhoka gore re re tumelo mo go Keresete e re ntshitse mo boammaruring e re koafaditse? Nnyaa, ga go a nna jalo, gonne Modimo ga o letlelele ope go nna pelokgale ka go akanya megopolo e e ntseng jalo kaga Morena wa rona.
But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, [is] therefore Christ the minister of sin? By no means.
18 Ka megopolo e e ntseng jalo, re baleofi fa re simolola gape go aga dilo tse dikgologolo tse ke ntseng ke di senya, tsa go leka go bolokwa ka go tshegetsa melao ya Sejuta,
For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
19 gonne ke ka ntlha ya go bala Dikwalo mo ke ileng ka lemoga gore go amogelwa ke Modimo go tla ka go dumela mo go Keresete.
For I through the law am dead to the law, that I may live to God.
20 Ke bapotswe le Keresete: mme jaanong ga ke sa tlhole ke tshela, mme Keresete o tshela mo go nna. Mme botshelo tota jo jaanong ke nang najo mo mmeleng o, ke ka ntlha ya go ikanya Morwa Modimo, yo o nthatileng a bo a iintshetsa setlhabelo.
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth 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 Ga ke mongwe wa ba ba tsayang loso lwa ga Keresete e le lefela. Gonne fa e le gore re ne re ka bolokwa ke go tshegetsa melao ya Sejuta, jalo go ne go sa tlhokafale gore Keresete a swe.
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness is [attainable] by the law, then Christ hath died in vain.
