¹Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.

¹ Ba ñu ca tegee fukki at ak ñeent, ànd naa ak Barnabas, dellu Yerusalem, yóbbaale Tit.

²And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

² Dem naa fa, ndaxte Yàllaa ma fa yebal ci kaw peeñu. Ba ma demee, daje naa ak ñi ñu gën a fonk ca mbooloo ma, ma wéetoo ak ñoom, won leen xebaar bu baax, bi may yégal ñi dul Yawut; ngir ragal sama coonob démb mbaa tey neen.

³But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:

³ Te Tit mi ma gunge woon sax de, li mu bokk ci xeetu Gereg, taxul ñu sonal nu ci xarafal ko.

⁴And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

⁴ Fekk na mbir moomu nekk coow ndax naaféq, yi yoxoosu ci sunu biir ak mébét mu bon, ngir seet yaatu gi nu am ci Yeesu Kirist, ba fexe noo defaat ay jaam.

⁵To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

⁵ Waaye yaatalunu leen benn yoon, ngir dëggug xebaar bu baax bi man a sax ci yéen.

⁶But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever 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:

⁶ Waaye ñi ñu gën a fonk --ak lu man a doon seen sag xooluma ko, ñépp a yem fa kanam Yàlla — waaye ñooñu ñu teg njiit boog, bi ma dajee ak ñoom, yokkuñu dara ci sama sas.

⁷But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

⁷ Gis nañu ne, Yàllaa nu yebal, muy man di Piyeer, ngir nu yégle xebaar bu baax bi; ma féetewoo ñi dul Yawut, Piyeer féetewoo Yawut yi.

⁸(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

⁸ Ndaxte ni Yàlla jëfe ci Piyeer, miy ndawam ci Yawut yi, noonu it la jëfe ci man, may ndawam ci ñi dul Yawut.

⁹And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

⁹ Te Saag, Sefas ak Yowaana nag, ñi ñu teg kenuy mbooloo mi, bi ñu ràññee yen bi ma Yàlla jagleel ci yiwam, ñu fekksi nu ci, ba jox nu loxo, man ak Barnabas, nu liggéey ca ña dul Yawut, ñoom ñu liggéey ca Yawut ya.

¹⁰Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.

¹⁰ Li ñu doon laaj rekk moo di, nuy fàttaliku seen aji néew doole yi, fekk sax laxasu woon naa ci def ko.

¹¹But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.

¹¹ Waaye bi Sefas ñëwee dëkku Ancos, yedd naa ko ci kanamu ñépp, ndaxte li mu def jaaduwul.

¹²For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.

¹² Ndaxte laata ndaw yi Saag yónni di ñëw, da daan bokk di lekk ak ñi dul Yawut. Waaye bi ñu agsee, te mu ragal kureel boobu faaydaal xaraf, mu dellu gannaaw, di sore ñi dul Yawut.

¹³And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.

¹³ Yeneen Yawut yi it daldi ànd ak Sefas ci naaféqam, ba yóbbaale sax Barnabas.

¹⁴But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto 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?

¹⁴ Bi ma seetee nag ne, awuñu woon ci dëgg, gi xebaar bu baax bi di jàngale, ma yedd Sefas ci kanamu ñépp ne ko: «Yaw miy Yawut, gannaaw dëddu nga aaday Yawut yi, ba dund ni ku dul Yawut, lu tax nga bëgg a sëf diiney Yawut ci ñi dul Yawut?»

¹⁵We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

¹⁵ Nun danoo cosaanoo ci xeetu Yawut, te bokkunu ci xeet, yi xamul Yàlla tey bàkkaar.

¹⁶Knowing 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 might 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.

¹⁶ Teewul nu xam ne, Yàlla du àtte kenn ni ku jub ci kaw sàmm yoon, waaye ci gëm Yeesu Kirist. Kon nun itam gëm nanu Kirist Yeesu, ngir Yàlla àtte nu jub ci kaw gëm Kirist, te du ci sàmm yoon. Ndaxte du caageenug sàmm yoon mooy tax Yàlla àtte kenn ni ku jub.

¹⁷But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

¹⁷ Waaye ba tey su fekkee ne nu ngi wut a jub ci kaw gëm Kirist, fekk nu ne fàŋŋ di ay bàkkaarkat, ndax nag Kirist moo sas bàkkaar? Mukk!

¹⁸For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

¹⁸ Waaye su ma delloo di sàmm ndigali yoon, yi ma bàyyi, dëgg-dëgg dinaa wone noonu ne, moykatu yoon wi laa.

¹⁹For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.

¹⁹ Ci li jëm ci yoonu Musaa, dee naa, fekk yoon wi ci boppam moo ko waral, ngir ma man a dund, ba amal jariñ Yàlla.

²⁰I am crucified with Christ: neverthless 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.

²⁰ Daajaale nañu ma ak Kirist ca bant ba, te noonu du man may dundati, waaye Kirist mooy dund ci man. Dundu mbindeef, gi may dund nag, maa ngi koy dund ci gëm Doomu Yàlla ji, moom mi ma bëgg, ba joxe bakkanam ngir man.

²¹I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

²¹ Duma neenal yiwu Yàlla, ndaxte su sàmm yoon doon tax a jub fa kanam Yàlla, kon Kirist dee na cig neen.
