verso 1

Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—

verso 2

and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:

verso 3

Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

verso 4

who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—

verso 5

to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

verso 6

I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,

verso 7

but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.

verso 8

But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

verso 9

As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.

verso 10

For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.

verso 11

But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.

verso 12

For I didn’t receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.

verso 13

For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged it.

verso 14

I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

verso 15

But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace,

verso 16

to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn’t immediately confer with flesh and blood,

verso 17

nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.

verso 18

Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.

verso 19

But of the other apostles I saw no one except James, the Lord’s brother.

verso 20

Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I’m not lying.

verso 21

Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

verso 22

I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,

verso 23

but they only heard, “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”

verso 24

So they glorified God in me.
