# Galatians 1
|
|||
|

|
|
1. Paul, an apostle—not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. and all the brothers who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
5. to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
11. For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
13. For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
14. And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and who called me by his grace,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
16. was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with anyone;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas and remained with him fifteen days.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord’s brother.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. (In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)
|
|||
|
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
|
21. Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
|
22. And I was still unknown in person to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||
|
|
23. They only were hearing it said, “He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”
|
|||
|
|
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
|
|||
|
|
24. And they glorified God because of me.
