加拉太書 2
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
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。
1Then, after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.
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。
2And I went up according to revelation; and communicated to them the gospel, which I preach among the Gentiles, but apart to them who seemed to be some thing: lest perhaps I should run, or had 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；
3But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised.
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。
4But because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy our liberty, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into servitude.
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。
5To whom we yielded not by subjection, no not for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue 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 of them who seemed to be some thing, (what they were some time, it is nothing to me, God accepteth not the person of man,) for to me they that seemed to be some thing added nothing.
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。（
7But contrariwise, when they had seen that to me was committed the gospel of the uncircumcision, as to Peter was that of the circumcision.
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；）
8(For he who wrought in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, wrought in me also among 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 when they had known the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed 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:
10只是願意我們記念窮人；這也是我本來熱心去行的。
10Only that we should be mindful of the poor: which same thing also I was careful 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。
11But when Cephas was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
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 that some came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them who were of the circumcision.
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。
13And to his dissimulation the rest of the Jews consented, so that Barnabas also was led by them into that dissimulation.
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？」
14But when I saw that they walked not uprightly unto the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all: If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as the Jews do, how dost thou compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
15我們這生來的 猶太 人，不是外邦的罪人；
15We by nature are Jews, and not of the Gentiles 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。
16But knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ; we also believe in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law no flesh shall 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 also are found sinners; is Christ then the minister of sin? God forbid.
18我素來所拆毀的，若重新建造，這就證明自己是犯罪的人。
18For if I build up again the things which I have destroyed, I make myself a prevaricator.
19我因律法，就向律法死了，叫我可以向上帝活着。
19For I, through the law, am dead to the law, that I may live to God: with Christ I am nailed to the cross.
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。
20And I live, now not I; but Christ liveth in me. And that I live now in the flesh: I live in the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered himself 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 cast not away the grace of God. For if justice be by the law, then Christ died in vain.
