Galatians 2:1-9

1ThenG1899 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 afterG1223 I wentG305 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 BarnabasG921, and tookG4838 TitusG5103 withG4838 me alsoG2532.

2AndG1161 I wentG305 byG2596 revelationG602, andG2532 communicatedG394 to themG846 that gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachG2784 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, butG1161 privatelyG2596G2398 to them who were of reputationG1380, lest by any meansG3381G4458 I should runG5143, orG2228 had runG5143, inG1519 vainG2756.1

3ButG235 neitherG3761 TitusG5103, whoG3588 was withG4862 meG1698, beingG5607 a GreekG1672, was compelledG315 to be circumcisedG4059:

4AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in secretlyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:

5To whomG3739 we gave placeG1502 by subjectionG5292, no, notG3761 forG4314 an hourG5610; thatG2443 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098 might continueG1265 withG4314 youG5209.

6ButG1161 ofG575 these who seemedG1380 to beG1511 somewhatG5100, (whateverG3697G4218 they wereG2258, it makethG1308 noG3762 matterG1308 to meG3427: GodG2316 acceptethG2983 noG3756 man’sG444 personG4383:) forG1063 they who seemedG1380 to be somewhat in conference addedG4323 nothingG3762 to meG1698:

7ButG235 on the contraryG5121, when they sawG1492 thatG3754 the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203 was committed to meG4100, asG2531 the gospel of the circumcisionG4061 was to PeterG4074;

8(ForG1063 he that wrought effectuallyG1754 in PeterG4074 toG1519 the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061, the sameG2532 was mightyG1754 in meG1698 towardG1519 the GentilesG1484:)

9AndG2532 when JamesG2385, CephasG2786, andG2532 JohnG2491, whoG3588 seemedG1380 to beG1511 pillarsG4769, perceivedG1097 the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 to meG3427, they gaveG1325 to meG1698 andG2532 BarnabasG921 the right handsG1188 of fellowshipG2842; thatG2443 weG2249 should go toG1519 the GentilesG1484, andG1161 theyG846 toG1519 the circumcisionG4061.
