Galatians 2:1-8

1Then after the space of fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 I wentG305 up againG3825 to JerusalemG2414 with BarnabasG921, takingG4838 TitusG5103 alsoG2532 with me.

2And I wentG305 up by revelationG602; and I laid before them the gospelG2098 which I preachG2784 among the GentilesG1484 but privately before them who were of repute, lestG3361 by any means I should be runningG5143, or had runG5143, in vainG2756.

7but contrariwise, when they sawG3708 that I had been intrusted with the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203, even as PeterG4074 with the gospelG2098 of the circumcisionG4061

8(for he that wrought for PeterG4074 unto the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061 wrought for me alsoG2532 unto the GentilesG1484);
