Galatians 2

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Then after fourteen years I again went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along also.	1 Deinde post annos quatuordecim, iterum ascendi Jerosolymam cum Barnaba, assumpto et Tito.
2 I went up in accord with a revelation, and I presented to them the gospel that I preach to the Gentiles--but privately to those of repute--so that I might not be running, or have run, in vain.	2 Ascendi autem secundum revelationem : et contuli cum illis Evangelium, quod prædico in gentibus, seorsum autem iis qui videbantur aliquid esse : ne forte in vacuum currerem, aut cucurrissem.
3 Moreover, not even Titus, who was with me, although he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised,	3 Sed neque Titus, qui mecum erat, cum esset gentilis, compulsus est circumcidi :
4 but because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy on our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, that they might enslave us--	4 sed propter subintroductos falsos fratres, qui subintroierunt explorare libertatem nostram, quam habemus in Christo Jesu, ut nos in servitutem redigerent.
5 to them we did not submit even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might remain intact for you.	5 Quibus neque ad horam cessimus subjectione, ut veritas Evangelii permaneat apud vos :
6 But from those who were reputed to be important (what they once were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)--those of repute made me add nothing.	6 ab iis autem, qui videbantur esse aliquid (quales aliquando fuerint, nihil mea interest : Deus personam hominis non accipit) : mihi enim qui videbantur esse aliquid, nihil contulerunt.
7 On the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter to the circumcised,	7 Sed e contra cum vidissent quod creditum est mihi Evangelium præputii, sicut et Petro circumcisionis
8 for the one who worked in Peter for an apostolate to the circumcised worked also in me for the Gentiles,	8 (qui enim operatus est Petro in apostolatum circumcisionis, operatus est et mihi inter gentes) :
9 and when they recognized the grace bestowed upon me, James and Kephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas their right hands in partnership, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.	9 et cum cognovissent gratiam, quæ data est mihi, Jacobus, et Cephas, et Joannes, qui videbantur columnæ esse, dextras dederunt mihi, et Barnabæ societatis : ut nos in gentes, ipsi autem in circumcisionem :
10 Only, we were to be mindful of the poor, which is the very thing I was eager to do.	10 tantum ut pauperum memores essemus, quod etiam sollicitus fui hoc ipsum facere.
11 And when Kephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face because he clearly was wrong.	11 Cum autem venisset Cephas Antiochiam, in faciem ei restiti, quia reprehensibilis erat.
12 For, until some people came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to draw back and separated himself, because he was afraid of the circumcised.	12 Prius enim quam venirent quidam a Jacobo, cum gentibus edebat : cum autem venissent, subtrahebat, et segregabat se, timens eos qui ex circumcisione erant.
13 And the rest of the Jews (also) acted hypocritically along with him, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.	13 Et simulationi ejus consenserunt ceteri Judæi, ita ut et Barnabas duceretur ab eis in illam simulationem.
14 But when I saw that they were not on the right road in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Kephas in front of all, "If you, though a Jew, are living like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?"	14 Sed cum vidissem quod non recte ambularent ad veritatem Evangelii, dixi Cephæ coram omnibus : Si tu, cum Judæus sis, gentiliter vivis, et non judaice : quomodo gentes cogis judaizare ?
15 We, who are Jews by nature and not sinners from among the Gentiles,	15 Nos natura Judæi, et non ex gentibus peccatores.
16 (yet) who know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we 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.	16 Scientes autem quod non justificatur homo ex operibus legis, nisi per fidem Jesu Christi : et nos in Christo Jesu credimus, ut justificemur ex fide Christi, et non ex operibus legis : propter quod ex operibus legis non justificabitur omnis caro.
17 But if, in seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are found to be sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? Of course not!	17 Quod si quærentes justificari in Christo, inventi sumus et ipsi peccatores, numquid Christus peccati minister est ? Absit.
18 But if I am building up again those things that I tore down, then I show myself to be a transgressor.	18 Si enim quæ destruxi, iterum hæc ædifico : prævaricatorem me constituo.
19 For through the law I died to the law, that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ;	19 Ego enim per legem, legi mortuus sum, ut Deo vivam : Christo confixus sum cruci.
20 yet I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given himself up for me.	20 Vivo autem, jam non ego : vivit vero in me Christus. Quod autem nunc vivo in carne : in fide vivo Filii Dei, qui dilexit me, et tradidit semetipsum pro me.
21 I do not nullify the grace of God; for if justification comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.	21 Non abjicio gratiam Dei. Si enim per legem justitia, ergo gratis Christus mortuus est.
