1 Na akus likure nin na nas nnin kata, nkuru in ghana u Urushalima nin Barnabas, in yira Titus ku ti gya ligowe.
Next, after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem, taking with me Barnabas and Titus.
2 Nwa ghana ndo bara na Kutellẹ wa dursoi ndo. Nwa durso nani kanang uliru tucu ulenge na ndin bellu kitik nalumai. ( Nwa su ulirẹ likot nan nadidya mine). Bara katwa ninghe na imalsu, nin ka na nma kuru nsu wa so hem.
And I went up according to revelation, and I debated with them about the Gospel that I am preaching among the Gentiles, but away from those who were pretending to be something, lest perhaps I might run, or have run, in vain.
3 Ko ame Titus na awadi ninmi, na awadi ku Hilinawa, iwa tighe akala kucuhru gbas. Nani wa se nani,
But even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Gentile, was not compelled to be circumcised,
4 Bari nuana kinu na iwa dak likire ida idayen lissosin limang bit na tiwa dimun nan nya Kristi Yisa. Iwa dinin su iti nari tiso acin kiti nduka.
but only because of false brothers, who were brought in unknowingly. They entered secretly to spy on our liberty, which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might reduce us to servitude.
5 Na arik nani ati kitimine ba ko nin kubiri båt, bara kidegen nlirun tuchu nan so kitimine sa ukpillu.
We did not yield to them in subjection, even for an hour, in order that the truth of the Gospel would remain with you,
6 Inung alenge na among na woro inughere anan bune na ina su imonmonba. Sa iwa di iyaghari kiti nin na imonmonari ba. Na Kutellẹ din sesu imon ile na idin su kibinayi nnit usurne ba.
and away from those who were pretending to be something. (Whatever they might have been once, it means nothing to me. God does not accept the reputation of a man.) And those who were claiming to be something had nothing to offer me.
7 Bara nani wang mere ina ni ulirun tuchue udu kiti na nan nacuru, nafo Bitrus na iwa nigne ucindu kiti na nan kalzu nacuru.
But it was to the contrary, since they had seen that the Gospel to the uncircumcised was entrusted to me, just as the Gospel to the circumcised was entrusted to Peter.
8 Bara Kutellẹ, na anasu kata nan nya Bitrus gono kadura kiti nalenge na ina kalza acuru nanere wang ana su katwa nan nya ning udu kiti nalumai.
For he who was working the Apostleship to the circumcised in Peter, was also working in me among the Gentiles.
9 Na iwa yinnin ubollẹ na Kutellẹ nasui, Yakub, Kefas, nin Yuhana, alenge na iwa yiru nani adidya liyissin wa Barnabas ku nin mi ucara ncine lidondong. Bara arik nan do kiti nalumai inung do kiti na nan kalzu nacuru.
And so, when they had acknowledged the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed like pillars, gave to me and to Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we would go to the Gentiles, while they went to the circumcised,
10 Tutung iwa di ninsu ti lizinin nin nikimon, imon ilenge na meng wang wadi nisu nsure ine kang.
asking only that we should be mindful of the poor, which was the very thing that I also was solicitous to do.
11 Kubi ko na Kefas wa dak Antakiya, Nwa yisin nmuro me nbellinghe uliru bara na awa tån.
But when Cephas had arrived at Antioch, I stood against him to his face, because he was blameworthy.
12 Kefas wa din lizu nimonli nin nalumai, a among anit unuzu kitin Yakub dutu sa udak. Na anit ane nda, a wunno kidowo anin tasa ligome nin na Lumaiye, bara fiu nanit ale na inamalu kalzu nacuru mine.
For before certain ones arrived from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they had arrived, he drew apart and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
13 Nanere wang ngisin na Yahudawẹ wa dofin Kefase ku nan nya nrusuzu nati. Nanere Barnabas wang litime wa dofin nani nan nya kani karusuze.
And the other Jews consented to his pretense, so that even Barnabas was led by them into that falseness.
14 Na nwa nin yene nwo na idin dortu kidegen nliru tucuba, Nbelle Kefase ku nbun mine vat, ''Andi fe na udi ku Yahudawa umini sosin nafo kilumai na nafo ku Yahudawa ba, iyizari udin tizzu Alumai iso nafo a Yahudawa?''
But when I had seen that they were not walking correctly, by the truth of the Gospel, I said to Cephas in front of everyone: “If you, while you are a Jew, are living like the Gentiles and not the Jews, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to keep the customs of the Jews?”
15 Arike na tidi a Yahudawa unuzu kumat a na ''Alumai yari anan nalapi ba.''
By nature, we are Jews, and not of the Gentiles, sinners.
16 Yinnon nenge na umong unit duku na ama sortu nacara nkul bara katwa nin dortun duka ba se nin yinnu sa uyenu nan nya Yisa Kristi. Tina dak nan nya in yinnu sa uyenu in Kristi Yisa bara tina se usurtu unuzun in yinnu sa uyenu nan nya Kristi na nin nitwa nduka ba, bara kusari nduka na unan lai urum ba surtuba.
And we know that man is not justified by the works of the law, but only by the faith of Jesus Christ. And so we believe in Christ Jesus, in order that we may be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law. For no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.
17 Vat nani andi konene tiba pizuru Kutellẹ tinan se usurtu nan nya asa tise atibite anan nalapi, Kriste nso unan katwa kulapï? Na nanere ba!
But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are also found to be sinners, would then Christ be the minister of sin? Let it not be so!
18 Bara andi meng ba kuru in wutu kimal ln yinnu nin duka tutung, uyinnu ule na ina nari, meng so unan patulu nduka.
For if I rebuild the things that I have destroyed, I establish myself as a prevaricator.
19 Bara nan nya nduka, meng na ku kulin duka, nnan so nin lai kiti Kutellẹ.
For through the law, I have become dead to the law, so that I may live for God. I have been nailed to the cross with Christ.
20 Iwa kottini kitene kucca ligowe nin Kristi. Na mere nene ming litininghe ba, unin ulai ulenge na in dumun nan nya kidowo, nsosin nan nya in yinnu sa uyenu in Gono Kutellẹ, ule na ana ti usu ning anä litime bara meng.
I live; yet now, it is not I, but truly Christ, who lives in me. And though I live now in the flesh, I live in the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and who delivered himself for me.
21 Na meng nati nin bollu Kutellẹ hem ba, bara adi uyiti nlau din nuzu ndukari, ukul in Kristi nso hem.
I do not reject the grace of God. For if justice is through the law, then Christ died in vain.
