Galatians 2

Darby Bible

1Then after a lapse of fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 I wentG305 up againG3825 to JerusalemG2414 with BarnabasG921, takingG4838 TitusG5103 alsoG2532 with [me]; 2and I wentG305 up accordingG2596 to revelationG602, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preachG2784 among the nationsG1484, but privately to those conspicuous [among them], lestG3361 in any way I runG5143 or had runG5143 in vainG2756; 3(but neither wasG1510 TitusG5103, who wasG1510 with me, beingG1510 a GreekG1672, compelledG315 to beG1510 circumcisedG4059;) 4and [it was] on accountG1223 of the falseG5569 brethren brought in surreptitiously, who came in surreptitiously to spy out our liberty which we have in ChristG5547 JesusG2424, that they might bring us into bondage; 5to whom we yielded in subjection not evenG3761 for an hourG5610, that the truthG225 of the glad tidings might remain with you. 6But from those who wereG1510 conspicuous as beingG1510 somewhat — whatsoever they wereG1510, it makes no difference to me: 1GodG2316 does not accept man's person; for to me those who wereG1510 conspicuous communicated nothing; 7but, on the contrary, seeingG3708 that the glad tidings of the uncircumcisionG203 were confided to me, even as to PeterG4074 that of the circumcisionG4061, 8(for he that wrought in PeterG4074 for [the] apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061 wrought alsoG2532 in me towards the GentilesG1484,) 9and recognising the graceG5485 givenG1325 to me, JamesG2385 and CephasG2786 and JohnG2491, who wereG1510 conspicuous as beingG1510 pillarsG4769, gaveG1325 to me and BarnabasG921 [the] rightG1188 hands of fellowshipG2842, that we [should go] to the nationsG1484, and they to the circumcisionG4061; 10onlyG3440 that we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434, which sameG846 thingG3778 alsoG2532 I was diligentG4704 to do. 11But whenG3753 Peter cameG2064 to AntiochG490, I withstood him to [the] faceG4383, because he wasG1510 to beG1510 condemnedG2607: 12for before that certainG5100 cameG2064 from JamesG2385, he ate with [those of] the nationsG1484; but whenG3753 they cameG2064, he drew backG5288 and separatedG873 himself, fearingG5399 those of [the] circumcisionG4061; 13and the restG3062 of the JewsG2453 alsoG2532 played the sameG846 dissembling part with him; so that evenG2532 BarnabasG921 was carried awayG4879 too by their dissimulation. 14But whenG3753 I sawG3708 that they do not walk straightforwardly, according to the truthG225 of the glad tidings, I saidG3004 to Peter before all, If thou, being a JewG2453, livest as the nationsG1484 and not as the JewsG2453, howG4459 dost thou compelG315 the nationsG1484 to Judaize? 15We, JewsG2453 by natureG5449, and not sinnersG268 of [the] nationsG1484, 16but knowing that a manG444 is not justifiedG1344 on the principleG3551 of worksG2041 of lawG3551 [nor] but by the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, we alsoG2532 have believedG4100 on ChristG5547 JesusG2424, that we might be justifiedG1344 on the principleG3551 of [the] faithG4102 of ChristG5547; and not of worksG2041 of lawG3551; because on the principleG3551 of worksG2041 of lawG3551 no fleshG4561 shall be justifiedG1344. 17NowG1161 if in seekingG2212 to be justifiedG1344 in ChristG5547 we alsoG2532 have been foundG2147 sinnersG268, then [is] ChristG5547 ministerG1249 of sinG266? Far be the thought. 18For if the thingsG3778 I have thrown downG2647, these I buildG3618 againG3825, I constitute myself a transgressorG3848. 19For I, through lawG3551, have diedG599 to lawG3551, that I may liveG2198 to 2GodG2316. 20I am crucified with ChristG5547, and no longer liveG2198, I, but ChristG5547 lives in me; but [in] that I nowG1161 liveG2198 in fleshG4561, I liveG2198 by faithG4102, the [faithG4102] of the SonG5207 of 3GodG2316, who has lovedG25 me and given himself for me. 21I do not setG114 asideG114 the graceG5485 of 4GodG2316; for if righteousnessG1343 [is] by lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 has diedG599 for nothing.
