Galatians 2:9-21

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 1GodG2316. 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 2GodG2316, who has lovedG25 me and given himself for me. 21I do not setG114 asideG114 the graceG5485 of 3GodG2316; for if righteousnessG1343 [is] by lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 has diedG599 for nothing.
