Verse 1

Then{G1899} after{G1223} the space of fourteen{G1180} years{G2094} I went up{G305} again{G3825} to{G1519} Jerusalem{G2414} with{G3326} Barnabas,{G921} taking{G4838} Titus{G5103} also{G2532} with{G4838} me.

Verse 2

And{G1161} I went up{G305} by{G2596} revelation;{G602} and{G2532} I laid{G394} before them{G846} the gospel{G2098} which{G3739} I preach{G2784} among{G1722} the Gentiles{G2596} but{G1161} privately{G2398} before them who{G3588} were of repute,{G1380} lest by any means{G3381} I should be running,{G5143} or{G2228} had run,{G5143} in{G1519} vain.{G2756}

Verse 3

But{G235} not even{G3761} Titus{G5103} who was{G3588} with{G4862} me,{G1698} being{G5607} a Greek,{G1672} was compelled{G315} to be circumcised:{G4059}

Verse 4

and that{G1161} because of{G1223} the false brethren{G5569} privily brought in,{G3920} who{G3748} came in privily{G3922} to spy out{G2684} our{G2257} liberty{G1657} which{G3739} we have{G2192} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus,{G2424} that{G2443} they might bring{G2615} us{G2248} into bondage:{G2615}

Verse 5

to whom{G3739} we gave place{G1502} in the way of subjection,{G5292} no, not{G3761} for{G4314} an hour;{G5610} that{G2443} the truth{G225} of the gospel{G2098} might continue{G1265} with{G4314} you.{G5209}

Verse 6

But{G1161} from{G575} those who{G3588} were{G1380} reputed to be{G1511} somewhat{G5100} (whatsoever{G3697} {G4218} they were,{G2258} it maketh{G1308} no{G3762} matter{G1308} to me:{G3427} God{G2316} accepteth{G2983} not{G3756} man's{G444} person){G4383} —they,{G1063} I say, who{G3588} were{G1380} of repute imparted{G4323} nothing{G3762} to me:{G1698}

Verse 7

but{G235} contrariwise,{G5121} when they saw{G1492} that{G3754} I had been intrusted{G4100} with the gospel{G2098} of the uncircumcision,{G203} even as{G2531} Peter{G4074} with [the gospel] of the circumcision{G4061}

Verse 8

(for{G1063} he that{G3588} wrought{G1754} for Peter{G4074} unto{G1519} the apostleship{G651} of the circumcision{G4061} wrought{G1754} for me{G1698} also{G2532} unto{G1519} the Gentiles);{G1484}

Verse 9

and{G2532} when they perceived{G1097} the grace{G5485} that{G3588} was given{G1325} unto me,{G3427} James{G2532} and{G2532} Cephas{G2786} and John,{G2491} they who{G3588} were reputed{G1380} to be{G1511} pillars,{G4769} gave{G1325} to me{G1698} and{G2532} Barnabas{G921} the right hands{G1188} of fellowship,{G2842} that{G2443} we{G2249} should go unto{G1519} the Gentiles,{G1484} and{G1161} they{G846} unto{G1519} the circumcision;{G4061}

Verse 10

only{G3440} [they would] that{G2443} we should remember{G3421} the poor;{G4434} which{G3739} very{G846} thing{G5124} I was also{G2532} zealous{G4704} to do.{G4160}

Verse 11

But{G1161} when{G3753} Cephas{G4074} came{G2064} to{G1519} Antioch,{G490} I resisted{G436} him{G846} to{G2596} the face,{G4383} because{G3754} he stood{G2258} condemned.{G2607}

Verse 12

For{G1063} before{G4253} that{G3588} certain{G5100} came{G2064} from{G575} James,{G2385} he ate{G4906} with{G3326} the Gentiles;{G1484} but{G1161} when{G3753} they came,{G2064} he drew back{G5288} and{G2532} separated{G873} himself,{G1438} fearing{G5399} them that{G3588} were of{G1537} the circumcision.{G4061}

Verse 13

And{G2532} the rest{G3062} of the Jews{G2453} dissembled{G4942} likewise{G2532} with him;{G846} insomuch that{G5620} even{G2532} Barnabas{G921} was carried away with{G4879} their{G846} dissimulation.{G5272}

Verse 14

But{G235} when{G3753} I saw{G1492} that{G3754} they walked{G3716} not{G3756} uprightly{G3716} according to{G4314} the truth{G225} of the gospel,{G2098} I said{G2036} unto Cephas{G4074} before{G1715} [them] all,{G3956} If{G1487} thou,{G4771} being{G5225} a Jew,{G2453} livest{G2198} as do the Gentiles,{G1483} and{G2532} not{G3756} as do the Jews,{G2452} how{G5101} compellest thou{G315} the Gentiles{G1484} to live as do the Jews?{G2450}

Verse 15

We{G2249} being Jews{G2453} by nature,{G5449} and{G2532} not{G3756} sinners{G268} of{G1537} the Gentiles,{G1484}

Verse 16

yet knowing{G1492} that{G3754} a man{G444} is{G1344} not{G3756} justified{G1344} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551} but{G1437} {G3361} through{G1223} faith{G4102} in{G1519} Jesus{G2424} Christ,{G5547} even{G2532} we{G2249} believed{G4100} on{G1519} Christ{G5547} Jesus,{G2424} that{G2443} we might be justified{G1344} by{G1537} faith{G4102} in Christ,{G5547} and{G2532} not{G3756} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law:{G3551} because by{G1360} the works{G2041} of{G1537} the law{G3551} shall{G1344} no{G3756} flesh{G4561} be justified.{G1344}

Verse 17

But{G1161} if,{G1487} while we sought{G2212} to be justified{G1344} in{G1722} Christ,{G5547} we ourselves{G846} also{G2532} were found{G2147} sinners,{G268} is {G687} Christ{G5547} a minister{G1249} of sin?{G3361} God forbid.{G1096}

Verse 18

For{G1063} if{G1487} I build{G3618} up again{G3825} those things{G5023} which{G3739} I destroyed,{G2647} I prove{G4921} myself{G1683} a transgressor.{G3848}

Verse 19

For{G1063} I{G1473} through{G1223} the law{G3551} died{G599} unto the law,{G3551} that{G2443} I might live{G2198} unto God.{G2316}

Verse 20

I have been crucified with{G4957} Christ;{G5547} and{G1161} it is no{G3765} longer I{G1473} that live,{G2198} but{G1161} Christ{G5547} living{G2198} in{G1722} me:{G1698} and{G1161} that [life] which{G3739} I{G2198} now{G3568} live{G2198} in{G1722} the flesh{G4561} I live{G2198} in{G1722} faith,{G4102} [the faith] which is in the Son{G5207} of God,{G2316} who{G3588} loved{G25} me,{G3165} and{G2532} gave{G3860} himself{G1438} up for{G5228} me.{G1700}

Verse 21

I do{G114} not{G3756} make void{G114} the grace{G5485} of God:{G2316} for{G1063} if{G1487} righteousness{G1343} is through{G1223} the law,{G3551} then{G686} Christ{G5547} died{G599} for nought.{G1432}
