¹ثم بعد اربع عشرة سنة صعدت ايضا الى اورشليم مع برنابا آخذا معي تيطس ايضا.

¹Then, after fourteen years again I went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, having taken with me also Titus;

²وانما صعدت بموجب اعلان وعرضت عليهم الانجيل الذي اكرز به بين الامم ولكن بالانفراد على المعتبرين لئلا اكون اسعى او قد سعيت باطلا.

²and I went up by revelation, and did submit to them the good news that I preach among the nations, and privately to those esteemed, lest in vain I might run or did run;

³لكن لم يضطر ولا تيطس الذي كان معي وهو يوناني ان يختتن.

³but not even Titus, who [is] with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised —

⁴ولكن بسبب الاخوة الكذبة المدخلين خفية الذين دخلوا اختلاسا ليتجسسوا حريتنا التي لنا في المسيح كي يستعبدونا.

⁴and [that] because of the false brethren brought in unawares, who did come in privily to spy out our liberty that we have in Christ Jesus, that us they might bring under bondage,

⁵الذين لم نذعن لهم بالخضوع ولا ساعة ليبقى عندكم حق الانجيل.

⁵to whom not even for an hour we gave place by subjection, that the truth of the good news might remain to you.

⁶واما المعتبرون انهم شيء مهما كانوا لا فرق عندي. الله لا يأخذ بوجه انسان. فان هؤلاء المعتبرين لم يشيروا عليّ بشيء.

⁶And from those who were esteemed to be something — whatever they were then, it maketh no difference to me — the face of man God accepteth not, for — to me those esteemed did add nothing,

⁷بل بالعكس اذ رأوا اني اؤتمنت على انجيل الغرلة كما بطرس على انجيل الختان.

⁷but, on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the good news of the uncircumcision, as Peter with [that] of the circumcision,

⁸فان الذي عمل في بطرس لرسالة الختان عمل فيّ ايضا للامم.

⁸for He who did work with Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, did work also in me in regard to the nations,

⁹فاذ علم بالنعمة المعطاة لي يعقوب وصفا ويوحنا المعتبرون انهم اعمدة اعطوني وبرنابا يمين الشركة لنكون نحن للامم واما هم فللختان.

⁹and having known the grace that was given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who were esteemed to be pillars, a right hand of fellowship they did give to me, and to Barnabas, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision [may go],

¹⁰غير ان نذكر الفقراء. وهذا عينه كنت اعتنيت ان افعله

¹⁰only, of the poor that we should be mindful, which also I was diligent — this very thing — to do.

¹¹ولكن لما أتى بطرس الى انطاكية قاومته مواجهة لانه كان ملوما.

¹¹And when Peter came to Antioch, to the face I stood up against him, because he was blameworthy,

¹²لانه قبلما أتى قوم من عند يعقوب كان يأكل مع الامم ولكن لما أتوا كان يؤخر ويفرز نفسه خائفا من الذين هم من الختان.

¹²for before the coming of certain from James, with the nations he was eating, and when they came, he was withdrawing and separating himself, fearing those of the circumcision,

¹³وراءى معه باقي اليهود ايضا حتى ان برنابا ايضا انقاد الى ريائهم.

¹³and dissemble with him also did the other Jews, so that also Barnabas was carried away by their dissimulation.

¹⁴لكن لما رأيت انهم لا يسلكون باستقامة حسب حق الانجيل قلت لبطرس قدام الجميع ان كنت وانت يهودي تعيش امميا لا يهوديا فلماذا تلزم الامم ان يتهوّدوا.

¹⁴But when I saw that they are not walking uprightly to the truth of the good news, I said to Peter before all, `If thou, being a Jew, in the manner of the nations dost live, and not in the manner of the Jews, how the nations dost thou compel to Judaize?

¹⁵نحن بالطبيعة يهود ولسنا من الامم خطاة

¹⁵we by nature Jews, and not sinners of the nations,

¹⁶اذ نعلم ان الانسان لا يتبرر باعمال الناموس بل بايمان يسوع المسيح آمنّا نحن ايضا بيسوع المسيح لنتبرر بايمان يسوع لا باعمال الناموس. لانه باعمال الناموس لا يتبرر جسد ما.

¹⁶having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.`

¹⁷فان كنا ونحن طالبون ان نتبرر في المسيح نوجد نحن انفسنا ايضا خطاة أفالمسيح خادم للخطية. حاشا.

¹⁷And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, [is] then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!

¹⁸فاني ان كنت ابني ايضا هذا الذي قد هدمته فاني اظهر نفسي متعديا.

¹⁸for if the things I threw down, these again I build up, a transgressor I set myself forth;

¹⁹لاني مت بالناموس للناموس لاحيا للّه.

¹⁹for I through law, did die, that to God I may live;

²⁰مع المسيح صلبت فاحيا لا انا بل المسيح يحيا فيّ. فما احياه الآن في الجسد فانما احياه في الايمان ايمان ابن الله الذي احبني واسلم نفسه لاجلي

²⁰with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh — in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me;

²¹لست ابطل نعمة الله. لانه ان كان بالناموس بر فالمسيح اذا مات بلا سبب

²¹I do not make void the grace of God, for if righteousness [be] through law — then Christ died in vain.
