¹⁹ “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God.

⁹ for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned^(A) to God from idols^(B) to serve the living and true God,^(C)

⁷ which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion^(A) and are trying to pervert^(B) the gospel of Christ. ⁸ But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you,^(C) let them be under God’s curse!^{(D) 9} As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,^(E) let them be under God’s curse!

¹⁰ Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people?^(F) If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
