New Testament
Galatians 2
1Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me.
επειτα δια δεκατεσσαρων ετων παλιν ανεβην εις ιεροσολυμα μετα βαρναβα, συμπαραλαβων και τιτον·
2And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain.
ανεβην δε κατα αποκαλυψιν· και ανεθεμην αυτοις το ευαγγελιον ο κηρυσσω εν τοις εθνεσιν, κατ ιδιαν δε τοις δοκουσιν, μηπως εις κενον τρεχω η εδραμον.
3Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.
αλλ ουδε τιτος ο συν εμοι, ελλην ων, ηναγκασθη περιτμηθηναι,
4And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),
δια δε τους παρεισακτους ψευδαδελφους, οιτινες παρεισηλθον κατασκοπησαι την ελευθεριαν ημων ην εχομεν εν χριστω ιησου, ινα ημας καταδουλωσωνται·
5to whom we did not yield submission even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
οις ουδε προς ωραν ειξαμεν τη υποταγη, ινα η αληθεια του ευαγγελιου διαμεινη προς υμας.
6But from those who seemed to be something—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man—for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me.
απο δε των δοκουντων ειναι τι, οποιοι ποτε ησαν ουδεν μοι διαφερει· προσωπον θεος ανθρωπου ου λαμβανει· εμοι γαρ οι δοκουντες ουδεν προσανεθεντο,
7But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter
αλλα τουναντιον ιδοντες οτι πεπιστευμαι το ευαγγελιον της ακροβυστιας καθως πετρος της περιτομης·
8(for He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles),
ο γαρ ενεργησας πετρω εις αποστολην της περιτομης ενηργησεν και εμοι εις τα εθνη·
9and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.
και γνοντες την χαριν την δοθεισαν μοι, ιακωβος και κηφας και ιωαννης, οι δοκουντες στυλοι ειναι, δεξιας εδωκαν εμοι και βαρναβα κοινωνιας, ινα ημεις εις τα εθνη, αυτοι δε εις την περιτομην·
10They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do.
μονον των πτωχων ινα μνημονευωμεν, ο και εσπουδασα αυτο τουτο ποιησαι.
11Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed;
οτε δε ηλθεν πετρος εις αντιοχειαν, κατα προσωπον αυτω αντεστην, οτι κατεγνωσμενος ην.
12for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
προ του γαρ ελθειν τινας απο ιακωβου μετα των εθνων συνησθιεν· οτε δε ηλθον, υπεστελλεν και αφωριζεν εαυτον, φοβουμενος τους εκ περιτομης.
13And the rest of the Jews also played the hypocrite with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.
και συνυπεκριθησαν αυτω και οι λοιποι ιουδαιοι, ωστε και βαρναβας συναπηχθη αυτων τη υποκρισει.
14But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all, 'If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jews?
αλλ οτε ειδον οτι ουκ ορθοποδουσιν προς την αληθειαν του ευαγγελιου, ειπον τω πετρω εμπροσθεν παντων· ει συ ιουδαιος υπαρχων εθνικως ζης και ουκ ιουδαικως, τι τα εθνη αναγκαζεις ιουδαιζειν;
15We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
ημεις φυσει ιουδαιοι και ουκ εξ εθνων αμαρτωλοι,
16knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.
ειδοτες [δε] οτι ου δικαιουται ανθρωπος εξ εργων νομου εαν μη δια πιστεως ιησου χριστου, και ημεις εις χριστον ιησουν επιστευσαμεν, ινα δικαιωθωμεν εκ πιστεως χριστου και ουκ εξ εργων νομου, διοτι ου δικαιωθησεται εξ εργων νομου πασα σαρξ.
17'But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Certainly not!
ει δε ζητουντες δικαιωθηναι εν χριστω ευρεθημεν και αυτοι αμαρτωλοι, αρα χριστος αμαρτιας διακονος; μη γενοιτο.
18For if I build again those things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
ει γαρ α κατελυσα ταυτα παλιν οικοδομω, παραβατην εμαυτον συνιστημι.
19For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God.
εγω γαρ δια νομου νομω απεθανον, ινα θεω ζησω.
20I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
χριστω συνεσταυρωμαι· ζω δε ουκετι εγω, ζη δε εν εμοι χριστος· ο δε νυν ζω εν σαρκι, εν πιστει ζω τη του υιου του θεου του αγαπησαντος με και παραδοντος εαυτον υπερ εμου.
21I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.'
ουκ αθετω την χαριν του θεου· ει γαρ δια νομου δικαιοσυνη, αρα χριστος δωρεαν απεθανεν.
