2:1 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Yerushalayim with Bar-Nabba (abnrb), and took also Titos (Τίτος) with me.
2:2 And I went up because of a revelation, and presented to them that Good News which I proclaim among the Goyim, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
2:3 Concerning Titos (Τίτος), who was with me, was not force to be undergo Brit Milah though he was a Greek:
2:4 And that because of the achei sheker unawares brought in, who slipped in to spy out our freedom that we have in Mashiach Yehoshua (יהושע), in order that they might enslave us:
2:5 But we refused to give in to them, even for an hour; so that the truth of the Good News might remain with you.
2:6 But of these who seemed to be something, (whatsoever they were, it makes no difference to me: Elohim (אלהים) shows no partiality to anyone:) for they who of reputation contributed nothing to me.
2:7On the contary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcised, just as Kefa had been entrusted with the Good News for the circumcised.
2:8 (For he who worked through Kefa for his shlichus (αποστολή) to the Circumcised, worked also through me for mine to the Goyim:)
2:9 And when Ya'akov, Kefa, and Yochanan, who were all consider to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave the right hand of fellowship to Bar-Nabba (abnrb) and me , that we should go to the Goyim, and they to the Circumcised.
2:10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
2:11 But when Kefa came to Antiocheia (Αντιόχεια), I opposed him to the face, because he stood condemned.
2:12 For before that certain came from Ya'akov, he did eat with the Goyim: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the Circumcised.
2:13 And the rest of the Yehudim dissembled likewise with him; so that even Bar-Nabba (abnrb) was carried away with their tzevi'ut (hypocrisy).
2:14 But when I saw that they walked not straight path according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Kefa before them all:
"If you, being a Yehudi, live after the manner of Goyim, and not like a Yehudi, how can you force the Goyim to live like Yehudim?"
2:15 We ourselves are Yehudim by birth, and not Goyishe chote'im (sinners).
2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Torah, but by the faith of Yehoshua (יהושע) Mashiach, even we have believed in Yeshua Mashiach, that we might be justified by the faith of Mashiach, and not by the works of the Torah: for by the works of the Torah shall no flesh be justified.
2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Mashiach, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Mashiach the minister of sin? Chalilah (Far be it).
2:18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
2:19 For I through the Torah am dead to the Torah, that I might live to Elohim (אלהים).
2:20 I am executed with Mashiach: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Mashiach lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Ben Elohim (אלהים), who loved me, and gave Himself for me.
2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of Elohim (אלהים): for if tzdekah come by the Torah, then Mashiach is dead in vain.
Judaizers were a group that believed that following Torah forced HaShem to grant one salvation. That salvation came without grace.
