Galatians 2:9-12

9and recognizing 1the grace that had been given to me, 23James and 45Cephas and John, who were 6reputed to be 7pillars, gave to me and 8Barnabas the 9right 10hand of fellowship, so that we might 11go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised. 10They only asked us to remember the poor--12the very thing I also was eager to do.

11But when 13Cephas came to 14Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he 15stood condemned. 12For prior to the coming of some men from 1617James, he used to 18eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to withdraw and separate himself, 19fearing those from the circumcision.
