Galatians 2

1 Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.

その後 十四年を歴て、バルナバと共にテトスをも連れて、復エルサレムに上れり。

2 I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.

我が上りしは默示に因りてなり。かくて異邦人の中に宣ぶる福音を彼らに告げ、また名ある者どもに私に告げたり、これは我が走ること、又すでに走りしことの空しからざらん爲なり。

3 But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

而して我と偕なるギリシヤ人テトスすら割禮を強ひられざりき。

4 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,

これ私に入りたる僞 兄弟あるに因りてなり。彼らの忍び入りたるは、我らがキリスト・イエスに在りて有てる自由を窺ひ、且われらを奴隷とせん爲なり。

5 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.

然れど福音の眞理の汝らの中に留らんために、我ら一 時も彼らに讓り從はざりき。

6 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,

然るに、かの名ある者どもより――彼らは如何なる人なるにもせよ、我には關係なし、神は人の外面を取り給はず――實にかの名ある者どもは我に何をも加へず、

7 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—

反つてペテロが割禮ある者に對する福音を委ねられたる如く、我が割禮なき者に對する福音を委ねられたるを認め、

8 for he who worked through Peter in the apostleship with the circumcised also worked through me with the Gentiles—

（ペテロに能力を與へて割禮ある者の使徒となし給ひし者は、我にも異邦人のために能力を與へ給へり）

9 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.

また我に賜はりたる恩惠をさとりて、柱と思はるるヤコブ、ケパ、ヨハネは、交誼の印として我とバルナバとに握手せり。これは我らが異邦人にゆき、彼らが割禮ある者に往かん爲なり。

10 They only asked us to remember the poor—which very thing I was also zealous to do.

唯その願ふところは我らが貧しき者を顧みんことなり、我も固より此の事を勵みて行へり。

11 But when Peter came to Antioch, I resisted him to his face, because he stood condemned.

されどケパがアンテオケに來りしとき、責むべき事のありしをもて面前これと諍ひたり。

12 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.

その故はある人々のヤコブの許より來るまでは、かれ異邦人と共に食しゐたるに、かの人々の來りてよりは、割禮ある者どもを恐れ、退きて異邦人と別れたり。

13 And the rest of the Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.

他のユダヤ人も彼とともに僞行をなし、バルナバまでもその僞行に誘はれゆけり。

14 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?

されど我かれらが福音の眞理に循ひて正しく歩まざるを見て、會衆の前にてケパに言ふ『なんぢユダヤ人なるにユダヤ人の如くせず、異邦人のごとく生活せば、何ぞ強ひて異邦人をユダヤ人の如くならしめんとするか』

15 “We, being Jews by nature and not Gentile sinners,

我らは生來のユダヤ人にして、罪人なる異邦人にあらざれども、

16 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.

人の義とせらるるは律法の行爲に由らず、唯キリスト・イエスを信ずる信仰に由るを知りて、キリスト・イエスを信じたり。これ律法の行爲に由らず、キリストを信ずる信仰によりて義とせられん爲なり。律法の行爲によりては義とせらるる者 一人だになし。

17 But if while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!

若しキリストに在りて義とせららんことを求めて、なほ罪人と認められなば、キリストは罪の役者なるか、決して然らず。

18 For if I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove myself a law-breaker.

我もし前に毀ちしものを再び建てなば、己みづから犯罪者たるを表す。

19 For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God.

我は神に生きんために、律法によりて律法に死にたり。

20 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.

我キリストと偕に十字架につけられたり。最早われ生くるにあらず、キリスト我が内に在りて生くるなり。今われ肉體に在りて生くるは、我を愛して我がために己が身を捨て給ひし神の子を信ずるに由りて生くるなり。

21 I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”

我は神の恩惠を空しくせず、もし義とせらるること律法に由らば、キリストの死に給へるは徒然なり。
