| 1 | Then after fourteen years I had again gone up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titos along also; |
| 2 | and I had gone up after a revelation, and laid upon them the good message which I proclaim among the Nations, but privately to those of repute, lest in any way I strive, or have strived, in vain. |
| 3 | Yet not even Titos who with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised |
| 4 | by those privily introduced false brethren, such who infiltrate to spy out our freedom, which we have in Christ Yahshua, in order that they may enslave us; |
| 5 | to whom not even for a minute did we yield in subjection, at which the truth of the good message would persevere for the sake of you. |
| 6 | Now from those reputed to be something, whatsoever they were then makes not one difference to me. Yahweh does not receive a man's stature, therefore to me those of repute are conferred nothing. |
| 7 | But on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the good message of the uncircumcised, just as Petros of the circumcised, |
| 8 | (He who has been operating within Petros for a message of the circumcised, has also operated within me for the Nations,) |
| 9 | and knowing the favor being given to me, Iakobos and Kephas and Iohannes, those reputed to be pillars, had given right hands of fellowship to me and to Barnabas, that we are for the Nations, and they for the circumcised; |
| 10 | only that we should remember the poor, the same thing which I had then been anxious to do. |
| 11 | But when Kephas had come to Antiocheia, I had confronted him personally because he was condemning himself: |
| 12 | for before some who were to come from Iakobos, he had eaten in common with the Nations, but when they came he withdrew and separated himself, being in fear of those of the circumcised; |
| 13 | and also the rest of the Judaeans had acted with him, so that even Barnabas had been led away by them in hypocrisy. |
| 14 | But when I had seen that they did not walk uprightly, according to the truth of the good message, I had said to Kephas before them all: If you, being a Judaean, live like a foreigner and not like a Judaean, how do you compel the Nations to imitate the Judaeans? |
| 15 | We, Judaeans by nature, and not wrongdoers from the Nations, |
| 16 | knowing that a man is not deemed righteous from rituals of law, if not through the faith of Yahshua Christ, we then have relied in Christ Yahshua in order that we would be deemed righteous from the faith of Christ, and not from rituals of law, since not any flesh shall be deemed righteous from rituals of law. |
| 17 | Now if seeking to be deemed righteous in Christ we ourselves are also found to be wrongdoers, then is Christ a minister of failure? Certainly not! |
| 18 | For if I again build these things which I have destroyed, I continue a transgressor myself. |
| 19 | For I through law have died in law, in order that in Yahweh I shall live. I have been crucified with Christ. |
| 20 | Now I live no longer, but Christ lives in me. And that I now live in flesh, in faith I live: in that of the Son of Yahweh, who having loved me then surrendered Himself on my behalf. |
| 21 | I would not refuse the favor of Yahweh; if righteousness is through law, then Christ has died for no purpose. |
