1Then after the space of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.
1 Ba ñu ca tegee fukki at ak ñeent, ànd naa ak Barnabas, dellu Yerusalem, yóbbaale Tit.
2And I went up by revelation; and I laid before them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles but privately before them who were of repute, lest by any means I should be running, 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 not even 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 the false brethren privily 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 in the way of 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 from those who were reputed to be somewhat (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth not man's person)-- they, I say, who were of repute imparted 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 I had been intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, even as Peter with [the gospel] of the circumcision
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 for Peter unto the apostleship of the circumcision wrought for me also unto 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 they perceived the grace that was given unto me, James and Cephas and John, they who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should go unto the Gentiles, 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; which very thing I was also zealous 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 Cephas came to Antioch, I resisted him to the face, because he stood condemned.
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 ate with the Gentiles; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing them that 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 rest of the Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that even Barnabas 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 Cephas before [them] all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as do the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, how 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 being 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.
16yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law: because 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 sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a 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 up again those things which I destroyed, I prove 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 died unto 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 have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up 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 make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nought.
21 Duma neenal yiwu Yàlla, ndaxte su sàmm yoon doon tax a jub fa kanam Yàlla, kon Kirist dee na cig neen.
