Android Studio: Duplicate files copied in APK project.properties

After adding the Google Translate API compile 'com.google.cloud:google-cloud-translate:0.18.0-beta' to my project, I have been getting a strange error

Error:Execution failed for task ':ParseStarterProject:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'. com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.builder.packaging.DuplicateFileException: Duplicate files copied in APK project.properties File1: .gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.google.cloud/google-cloud-translate/0.18.0-beta/9cac04f2bb48f76f352bf65d782506e4aa18406c/google-cloud-translate-0.18.0-beta.jar File2: /.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.google.cloud/google-cloud-core/1.0.2/ff451b4b785369093bd91d277c22576fc9c1da3a/google-cloud-core-1.0.2.jar

There are other SO posts which mention "Duplicate files copied in APK META_INF", or "Duplicate files copied in APK LICENSE.txt", etc

However, I have not seen anyone else encounter the error "duplicate files copied in APK project.properties"

Adding these to my gradle does not work

packagingOptions {
  exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
  exclude 'META-INF/io.netty.versions.properties'
  exclude 'META-INF/INDEX.LIST'
  exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
  exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
  exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
  exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
}

Is there something else I can add to my gradle to fix this error? Or is there another way to fix this error by removing "FILE2" as shown in the error logs?

GRADLE

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

    disable 'MissingTranslation'
    disable 'ExtraTranslation'
}
dexOptions {
    javaMaxHeapSize "4g"

in my case,

packagingOptions {
    exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
    exclude 'META-INF/io.netty.versions.properties'
    exclude 'META-INF/INDEX.LIST'
    exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
    exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
    exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
    exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
    exclude 'project.properties' <------------------------here
}

Remove the google cloud core dependancy

While adding translate dependancy do this 

compile ('com.google.cloud:google-cloud-translate:0.5.0') {
    exclude group: 'io.grpc', module: 'grpc-all'
    exclude group: 'com.google.protobuf', module: 'protobuf-java'
    exclude group: 'com.google.api-client', module: 'google-api-client-
    appengine'
}
