Galatians 1:1-10

1PaulG3972, 1an apostleG652 (2not sent from menG444 norG3761 throughG1223 the agencyG1223 of manG444, but 3throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 and GodG2316 the FatherG3962, who 4raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498), 2and allG3956 5the brethrenG80 who are with me,

To 6the churchesG1577 of GalatiaG1053:

3 7GraceG5485 to you and peaceG1515 from 8GodG2316 our FatherG3962 and the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 4who 9gaveG1325 HimselfG1438 for our sinsG266 soG3704 that He might rescueG1807 us from 10thisG3588 presentG1764 evilG4190 11ageG165, accordingG2596 to the willG2307 of 12our GodG2316 and FatherG3962, 5 13to whomG3739 be the gloryG1391 forevermoreG165. AmenG281.

6I amG2296 amazedG2296 that you are soG3779 quicklyG5030 desertingG3346 G575 14Him who calledG2564 you 15by the graceG5485 of ChristG5547, for a 16differentG2087 gospelG2098; 7whichG3739 is really not anotherG243; onlyG1487 G3361 there are someG5100 who are 17disturbingG5015 you and wantG2309 to distortG3344 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547. 8But evenG2532 ifG1437 we, orG2228 18an angelG32 from heavenG3772, should preachG2097 to you a gospelG2097 19contraryG3844 to whatG3739 we have preachedG2097 to you, he is to be 20 21accursedG331! 9As we 22have saidG4275 beforeG4275, soG2532 I sayG3004 againG3825 nowG737, 23ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 is preachingG2097 to you a gospelG2097 24contraryG3844 to whatG3739 you receivedG3880, he is to be 25 26accursedG331!

10For am I nowG737 27seekingG3982 the favorG3982 of menG444, orG2228 of GodG2316? OrG2228 am I strivingG2212 to pleaseG700 menG444? IfG1487 I were stillG2089 trying to pleaseG700 menG444, I would not be a 28bond-servantG1401 of ChristG5547.
