加拉太書 2
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1過了十四年，我同 巴拿巴 又上 耶路撒冷 去，並帶着 提多 同去。
1Fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem, accompanied by Barnabas. I took Titus along also.
2我是奉啟示上去的，把我在外邦人中所傳的福音對弟兄們陳說；卻是背地裏對那有名望之人說的，惟恐我現在，或是從前，徒然奔跑。
2I went in response to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I spoke privately to those recognized as leaders, for fear that I was running or had already run in vain.
3但與我同去的 提多 ，雖是 希臘 人，也沒有勉強他受割禮；
3Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek.
4因為有偷着引進來的假弟兄，私下窺探我們在基督耶穌裏的自由，要叫我們作奴僕。
4This issue arose because some false brothers had come in under false pretenses to spy on our freedom in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.
5我們就是一刻的工夫也沒有容讓順服他們，為要叫福音的真理仍存在你們中間。
5We did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you.
6至於那些有名望的，不論他是何等人，都與我無干。上帝不以外貌取人。那些有名望的，並沒有加增我甚麼，
6But as for the highly esteemed—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show favoritism —those leaders added nothing to me.
7反倒看見了主託我傳福音給那未受割禮的人，正如託 彼得 傳福音給那受割禮的人。（
7On the contrary, they saw that I had been entrusted to preach the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised.
8那感動 彼得 、叫他為受割禮之人作使徒的，也感動我，叫我為外邦人作使徒；）
8For the One who was at work in Peter’s apostleship to the circumcised was also at work in my apostleship to the Gentiles.
9又知道所賜給我的恩典，那稱為 教會 柱石的 雅各 、 磯法 、 約翰 ，就向我和 巴拿巴 用右手行相交之禮，叫我們往外邦人那裏去，他們往受割禮的人那裏去。
9And recognizing the grace that I had been given, James, Cephas, and John—those reputed to be pillars—gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.
10只是願意我們記念窮人；這也是我本來熱心去行的。
10They only asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
11後來， 磯法 到了 安提阿 ；因他有可責之處，我就當面抵擋他。
11When Cephas came to Antioch, however, I opposed him to his face, because he stood to be condemned.
12從 雅各 那裏來的人未到以先，他和外邦人一同吃飯，及至他們來到，他因怕奉割禮的人，就退去與外邦人隔開了。
12For before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself, for fear of those in the circumcision group.
13其餘的 猶太 人也都隨着他裝假，甚至連 巴拿巴 也隨夥裝假。
13The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray.
14但我一看見他們行的不正，與福音的真理不合，就在眾人面前對 磯法 說：「你既是 猶太 人，若隨外邦人行事，不隨 猶太 人行事，怎麼還勉強外邦人隨 猶太 人呢？」
14When I saw that they were not walking in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all, “If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?”
15我們這生來的 猶太 人，不是外邦的罪人；
15We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile “sinners”
16既知道人稱義不是因行律法，乃是因信耶穌基督，連我們也信了基督耶穌，使我們因信基督稱義，不因行律法稱義；因為凡有血氣的，沒有一人因行律法稱義。
16know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
17我們若求在基督裏稱義，卻仍舊是罪人，難道基督是叫人犯罪的嗎？斷乎不是！
17But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are found to be sinners, does that make Christ a minister of sin? Certainly not!
18我素來所拆毀的，若重新建造，這就證明自己是犯罪的人。
18If I rebuild what I have already torn down, I prove myself to be a lawbreaker.
19我因律法，就向律法死了，叫我可以向上帝活着。
19For through the law I died to the law so that I might live to God.
20我已經與基督同釘十字架，現在活着的不再是我，乃是基督在我裏面活着；並且我如今在肉身活着，是因信上帝的兒子而活；他是愛我，為我捨己。
20I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
21我不廢掉上帝的恩；義若是藉着律法得的，基督就是徒然死了。
21I do not set aside the grace of God. For if righteousness comes through the law, Christ died for nothing.
