Galatians 2

ثُمَّ بَعْدَ أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً صَعِدْتُ أَيْضًا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ مَعَ بَرْنَابَا، آخِذًا مَعِي تِيطُسَ أَيْضًا.

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

وَإِنَّمَا صَعِدْتُ بِمُوجَبِ إِعْلاَنٍ، وَعَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِمِ الإِنْجِيلَ الَّذِي أَكْرِزُ بِهِ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ، وَلكِنْ بِالانْفِرَادِ عَلَى الْمُعْتَبَرِينَ، لِئَلاَّ أَكُونَ أَسْعَى أَوْ قَدْ سَعَيْتُ بَاطِلاً.

And 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.

لكِنْ لَمْ يَضْطَرَّ وَلاَ تِيطُسُ الَّذِي كَانَ مَعِي، وَهُوَ يُونَانِيٌّ، أَنْ يَخْتَتِنَ.

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

وَلكِنْ بِسَبَبِ الإِخْوَةِ الْكَذَبَةِ الْمُدْخَلِينَ خُفْيَةً، الَّذِينَ دَخَلُوا اخْتِلاَسًا لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا حُرِّيَّتَنَا الَّتِي لَنَا فِي الْمَسِيحِ كَيْ يَسْتَعْبِدُونَا،

And 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:

اَلَّذِينَ لَمْ نُذْعِنْ لَهُمْ بِالْخُضُوعِ وَلاَ سَاعَةً، لِيَبْقَى عِنْدَكُمْ حَقُّ الإِنْجِيلِ.

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

وَأَمَّا الْمُعْتَبَرُونَ أَنَّهُمْ شَيْءٌ ­ مَهْمَا كَانُوا، لاَ فَرْقَ عِنْدِي، اَللهُ لاَ يَأْخُذُ بِوَجْهِ إِنْسَانٍ ­ فَإِنَّ هؤُلاَءِ الْمُعْتَبَرِينَ لَمْ يُشِيرُوا عَلَيَّ بِشَيْءٍ.

But 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:

بَلْ بِالْعَكْسِ، إِذْ رَأَوْا أَنِّي اؤْتُمِنْتُ عَلَى إِنْجِيلِ الْغُرْلَةِ كَمَا بُطْرُسُ عَلَى إِنْجِيلِ الْخِتَانِ.

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

فَإِنَّ الَّذِي عَمِلَ فِي بُطْرُسَ لِرِسَالَةِ الْخِتَانِ عَمِلَ فِيَّ أَيْضًا لِلأُمَمِ.

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

فَإِذْ عَلِمَ بِالنِّعْمَةِ الْمُعْطَاةِ لِي يَعْقُوبُ وَصَفَا وَيُوحَنَّا، الْمُعْتَبَرُونَ أَنَّهُمْ أَعْمِدَةٌ، أَعْطَوْنِي وَبَرْنَابَا يَمِينَ الشَّرِكَةِ لِنَكُونَ نَحْنُ لِلأُمَمِ، وَأَمَّا هُمْ فَلِلْخِتَانِ.

And 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.

غَيْرَ أَنْ نَذْكُرَ الْفُقَرَاءَ. وَهذَا عَيْنُهُ كُنْتُ اعْتَنَيْتُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَهُ.

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

وَلكِنْ لَمَّا أَتَى بُطْرُسُ إِلَى أَنْطَاكِيَةَ قَاوَمْتُهُ مُواجَهَةً، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ مَلُومًا.

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

لأَنَّهُ قَبْلَمَا أَتَى قَوْمٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ يَعْقُوبَ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ مَعَ الأُمَمِ، وَلكِنْ لَمَّا أَتَوْا كَانَ يُؤَخِّرُ وَيُفْرِزُ نَفْسَهُ، خَائِفًا مِنَ الَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنَ الْخِتَانِ.

For 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.

وَرَاءَى مَعَهُ بَاقِي الْيَهُودِ أَيْضًا، حَتَّى إِنَّ بَرْنَابَا أَيْضًا انْقَادَ إِلَى رِيَائِهِمْ!

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

لكِنْ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُمْ لاَ يَسْلُكُونَ بِاسْتِقَامَةٍ حَسَبَ حَقِّ الإِنْجِيلِ، قُلْتُ لِبُطْرُسَ قُدَّامَ الْجَمِيعِ:«إِنْ كُنْتَ وَأَنْتَ يَهُودِيٌّ تَعِيشُ أُمَمِيًّا لاَ يَهُودِيًّا، فَلِمَاذَا تُلْزِمُ الأُمَمَ أَنْ يَتَهَوَّدُوا؟»

But 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?

نَحْنُ بِالطَّبِيعَةِ يَهُودٌ وَلَسْنَا مِنَ الأُمَمِ خُطَاةً،

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

إِذْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ الإِنْسَانَ لاَ يَتَبَرَّرُ بِأَعْمَالِ النَّامُوسِ، بَلْ بِإِيمَانِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، آمَنَّا نَحْنُ أَيْضًا بِيَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، لِنَتَبَرَّرَ بِإِيمَانِ يَسُوعَ لاَ بِأَعْمَالِ النَّامُوسِ. لأَنَّهُ بِأَعْمَالِ النَّامُوسِ لاَ يَتَبَرَّرُ جَسَدٌ مَا.

Knowing 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.

فَإِنْ كُنَّا وَنَحْنُ طَالِبُونَ أَنْ نَتَبَرَّرَ فِي الْمَسِيحِ، نُوجَدُ نَحْنُ أَنْفُسُنَا أَيْضًا خُطَاةً، أَفَالْمَسِيحُ خَادِمٌ لِلْخَطِيَّةِ؟ حَاشَا!

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

فَإِنِّي إِنْ كُنْتُ أَبْنِي أَيْضًا هذَا الَّذِي قَدْ هَدَمْتُهُ، فَإِنِّي أُظْهِرُ نَفْسِي مُتَعَدِّيًا.

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

لأَنِّي مُتُّ بِالنَّامُوسِ لِلنَّامُوسِ لأَحْيَا للهِ.

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

مَعَ الْمَسِيحِ صُلِبْتُ، فَأَحْيَا لاَ أَنَا، بَلِ الْمَسِيحُ يَحْيَا فِيَّ. فَمَا أَحْيَاهُ الآنَ فِي الْجَسَدِ، فَإِنَّمَا أَحْيَاهُ فِي الإِيمَانِ، إِيمَانِ ابْنِ اللهِ، الَّذِي أَحَبَّنِي وَأَسْلَمَ نَفْسَهُ لأَجْلِي.

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless 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.

لَسْتُ أُبْطِلُ نِعْمَةَ اللهِ. لأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ بِالنَّامُوسِ بِرٌّ، فَالْمَسِيحُ إِذًا مَاتَ بِلاَ سَبَبٍ!

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