The Constitution is very clear. It's not ambiguous or vague in any sense. It doesn't require "translation". It means exactly what it says; no more; no less.

If an amendment says "Congress shall make no law", it means "Congress shall make no law". If it says, "the right of THE PEOPLE to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED", it means "the right of THE PEOPLE to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED".

If a law is created that infringes our right to keep and bear arms, for instance a law requiring us to wait a certain time period before buying a gun, or one that limits what type of guns we may buy, we know that this law is unconstitutional in its face and we have no obligation to follow it.

The Constitution limits the powers of government, not the rights of the people. Any laws which attempt to limit our rights, are illegal ones.
