1 Na akus likure nin na nas nnin kata, nkuru in ghana u Urushalima nin Barnabas, in yira Titus ku ti gya ligowe.
Fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem, accompanied by Barnabas. I took Titus along also.
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.
I went in response to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I spoke privately to those recognized as leaders, for fear that I was running or had already run in vain.
3 Ko ame Titus na awadi ninmi, na awadi ku Hilinawa, iwa tighe akala kucuhru gbas. Nani wa se nani,
Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek.
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.
This issue arose because some false brothers had come in under false pretenses to spy on our freedom in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.
5 Na arik nani ati kitimine ba ko nin kubiri båt, bara kidegen nlirun tuchu nan so kitimine sa ukpillu.
We did not give in to them for a moment, so 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.
But as for the highly esteemed—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show favoritism —those leaders added nothing to 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.
On the contrary, they saw that I had been entrusted to preach the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised.
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 the One who was at work in Peter’s apostleship to the circumcised was also at work in my apostleship to 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 recognizing the grace that I had been given, James, Cephas, and John—those reputed to be pillars—gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.
10 Tutung iwa di ninsu ti lizinin nin nikimon, imon ilenge na meng wang wadi nisu nsure ine kang.
They only asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
11 Kubi ko na Kefas wa dak Antakiya, Nwa yisin nmuro me nbellinghe uliru bara na awa tån.
When Cephas came to Antioch, however, I opposed him to his face, because he stood to be condemned.
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 men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself, for fear of those in the circumcision group.
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.
The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray.
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?''
When I saw that they were not walking in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all, “If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?”
15 Arike na tidi a Yahudawa unuzu kumat a na ''Alumai yari anan nalapi ba.''
We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile “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.
know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
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 we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are found to be sinners, does that make Christ a minister of sin? Certainly not!
18 Bara andi meng ba kuru in wutu kimal ln yinnu nin duka tutung, uyinnu ule na ina nari, meng so unan patulu nduka.
If I rebuild what I have already torn down, I prove myself to be a lawbreaker.
19 Bara nan nya nduka, meng na ku kulin duka, nnan so nin lai kiti Kutellẹ.
For through the law I died to the law so that I might live to God.
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 have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up 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 set aside the grace of God. For if righteousness comes through the law, Christ died for nothing.
