Lời Chào
1 Tôi là Phao-lô, một sứ đồ không phải từ người nào hay do ai ủy nhiệm, nhưng do Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su[a] và do Đức Chúa Trời là Cha, Đấng đã khiến Ngài sống lại từ cõi chết,[b] 2 cùng tất cả anh em đang ở với tôi,
Kính gửi các Hội Thánh miền Ga-la-ti.
3 Nguyện xin Đức Chúa Trời là Cha chúng ta và Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su ban ân sủng và bình an cho anh chị em. 4 Chúa Giê-su đã hy sinh chính mình Ngài vì tội lỗi chúng ta để giải cứu chúng ta thoát khỏi đời gian ác hiện tại đúng theo ý muốn của Đức Chúa Trời, 5 Cha chúng ta. Nguyện Ngài được tôn vinh đời đời vô cùng. A-men.
Không Có Ân Sủng Nào Khác
6 Tôi ngạc nhiên thấy anh chị em vội vã từ bỏ Đấng đã kêu gọi anh chị em bởi ân sủng Chúa Cứu Thế để theo một phúc âm khác. 7 Không có phúc âm nào khác đâu, chỉ có mấy người làm rối trí anh chị em và muốn xuyên tạc Phúc Âm của Chúa Cứu Thế. 8 Nhưng nếu có ai, dù chính mình chúng tôi hay một thiên sứ từ trời truyền bá một phúc âm nào khác với Phúc Âm chúng tôi đã truyền giảng cho anh chị em thì kẻ ấy đáng bị nguyền rủa. 9 Như chúng tôi đã nói, nay tôi xin nói lại: Nếu ai truyền cho anh chị em một phúc âm nào khác với Phúc Âm anh chị em đã nhận, thì kẻ ấy đáng bị nguyền rủa.
10 Vậy, giờ đây tôi cố gắng để được lòng loài người hay Đức Chúa Trời? Hay tôi cố tìm cách làm đẹp lòng loài người chăng? Nếu tôi vẫn muốn làm đẹp lòng loài người thì tôi không phải là đầy tớ của Chúa Cứu Thế.
Chức Sứ Đồ Của Phao-lô
11 Thật vậy, thưa anh chị em, tôi muốn anh chị em biết rằng Phúc Âm mà tôi truyền giảng không phải đến từ loài người. 12 Vì tôi đã nhận Phúc Âm ấy không phải từ một người nào, cũng không do ai dạy tôi, nhưng do Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su mạc khải cho tôi.[c]
13 Anh chị em hẳn đã nghe về lối sống của tôi khi còn theo Do Thái Giáo, thể nào tôi đã bắt bớ dữ dội và muốn phá hủy hội thánh của Đức Chúa Trời. 14 Trong việc giữ đạo Do Thái, tôi vượt xa hơn nhiều người đồng tuổi với tôi. Tôi hết sức nhiệt thành giữ các truyền thống của tổ tiên. 15 Nhưng khi Đức Chúa Trời là Đấng đã chọn[d] tôi từ trong lòng mẹ và bởi ân sủng kêu gọi tôi, 16 vui lòng mạc khải Con Ngài trong tôi để tôi truyền giảng Phúc Âm về Con Ngài giữa vòng các dân tộc ngoại quốc, thì lập tức tôi không bàn luận với người phàm,[e] 17 cũng không lên thành phố Giê-ru-sa-lem để gặp những vị đã làm sứ đồ trước tôi, nhưng đi qua Ả-rập rồi trở lại thành Đa-mách.
18 Ba năm sau, tôi lên Giê-ru-sa-lem để thăm Phê-rơ và ở lại với ông mười lăm ngày. 19 Tôi không gặp một sứ đồ nào khác ngoại trừ Gia-cơ là em của Chúa. 20 Những điều tôi viết cho anh chị em đây, có Đức Chúa Trời chứng giám,[f] tôi không nói dối! 21 Sau đó tôi qua xứ Sy-ri và Si-li-si. 22 Lúc ấy các Hội Thánh của Chúa Cứu Thế tại xứ Giu-đê chưa biết mặt tôi. 23 Họ chỉ nghe rằng người đã bắt bớ họ trước đây, nay đang rao truyền Phúc Âm về đức tin mà người đã cố sức tiêu diệt. 24 Như thế, họ tôn vinh Đức Chúa Trời vì tôi.
Galatians 1
New King James Version
Galatians 1
New King James Version
Greeting
1 Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but (A)through Jesus Christ and God the Father (B)who raised Him from the dead), 2 and all the brethren who are with me,
To the churches of Galatia:
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 (C)who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us (D)from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5 to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
Only One Gospel
6 I marvel that you are turning away so soon (E)from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, 7 (F)which is not another; but there are some (G)who trouble you and want to (H)pervert[a] the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if (I)we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be [b]accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you (J)than what you have received, let him be accursed.
10 For (K)do I now (L)persuade men, or God? Or (M)do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.
Call to Apostleship(N)
11 (O)But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. 12 For (P)I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came (Q)through the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how (R)I persecuted the church of God beyond measure and (S)tried to destroy it. 14 And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, (T)being more exceedingly zealous (U)for the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased God, (V)who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, 16 (W)to reveal His Son in me, that (X)I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with (Y)flesh and blood, 17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
Contacts at Jerusalem(Z)
18 Then after three years (AA)I went up to Jerusalem to see [c]Peter, and remained with him fifteen days. 19 But (AB)I saw none of the other apostles except (AC)James, the Lord’s brother. 20 (Now concerning the things which I write to you, indeed, before God, I do not lie.)
21 (AD)Afterward I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia. 22 And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea which (AE)were in Christ. 23 But they were (AF)hearing only, “He who formerly (AG)persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy.” 24 And they (AH)glorified God in me.

Galatians 1
Worldwide English (New Testament)
Galatians 1
Worldwide English (New Testament)
1 I am Paul the apostle, a messenger from God. Men did not call me to be an apostle. Men did not make me an apostle. Jesus Christ and God the Father made me an apostle. It was the same God the Father who raised Jesus from death.
2 All the Christian brothers who are with me and I, send greetings. To the churches in the province of Galatia:
3 May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you with his loving kindness and give you peace.
4 Christ gave his life to pay for the wrong things we have done. He did this to set us free from the wrong ways of this world. This is what our God and Father wanted him to do.
5 All the praise for this belongs to God for ever and ever. Yes, it does!
6 I am very much surprised. It is so soon, and you are leaving God who called you by the love of Christ. Instead you are listening to another good news.
7 There is really no other good news. But some people are making you think wrong things. They want to change the good news of Christ.
8 We are wrong if we tell you a different kind of good news. Even an angel from heaven is wrong to tell you something different. Let a punishment from God come upon us if we tell you a different kind of good news.
9 We have said it before, and I say it again now. A curse be on any one who tells you a kind of good news which is not the good news we have already told you.
10 Now, am I trying to please men or God? If I were still trying to please men, then I would not be the servant of Christ.
11 My brothers, I want you to know this. The good news which I told you is not man's good news.
12 No man told it to me. No man taught it to me. But it was Jesus Christ who showed it to me.
13 You have heard how I lived while I was still under the law of the Jews. I troubled the church of God very much. And I even tried to stop the church people altogether.
14 I knew more about the law of the Jews than many of my own age among my people. I wanted much more than they did to obey the laws which our fathers passed down to us, even the ones that were not written.
15 But God chose me to be an apostle before I was born. And he called me by his love.
16 God wanted to show his Son to me so that I might tell people who are not Jews about him. I did not go and ask any other person about the good news.
17 I did not go to Jerusalem to the men who were apostles before I was. But I went away into the country of Arabia. Then afterwards, I came back to the city of Damascus.
18 Three years later, I went to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
19 James, the brother of the Lord, was the only other apostle I saw. I did not see any of the other apostles.
20 God knows that what I am writing to you is not a lie.
21 After I had been at Jerusalem, I went to the countries of Syria and Cilicia.
22 At that time the churches of Christ in Judea did not know me. They had never seen me.
23 They only heard people say, `This is the man who used to trouble us and he is now telling others to believe what he once tried to stop.'
24 And they praised God for what had happened to me.
Galatians 1
New International Version
Galatians 1
New International Version
1 Paul, an apostle(A)—sent not from men nor by a man,(B) but by Jesus Christ(C) and God the Father,(D) who raised him from the dead(E)— 2 and all the brothers and sisters[a] with me,(F)
To the churches in Galatia:(G)
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,(H) 4 who gave himself for our sins(I) to rescue us from the present evil age,(J) according to the will of our God and Father,(K) 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.(L)
No Other Gospel
6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called(M) you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel(N)— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion(O) and are trying to pervert(P) 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,(Q) let them be under God’s curse!(R) 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,(S) 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?(T) If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Paul Called by God
11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters,(U) that the gospel I preached(V) is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man,(W) nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation(X) from Jesus Christ.(Y)
13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism,(Z) how intensely I persecuted the church of God(AA) and tried to destroy it.(AB) 14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous(AC) for the traditions of my fathers.(AD) 15 But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb(AE) and called me(AF) by his grace, was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles,(AG) my immediate response was not to consult any human being.(AH) 17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia. Later I returned to Damascus.(AI)
18 Then after three years,(AJ) I went up to Jerusalem(AK) to get acquainted with Cephas[b] and stayed with him fifteen days. 19 I saw none of the other apostles—only James,(AL) the Lord’s brother. 20 I assure you before God(AM) that what I am writing you is no lie.(AN)
21 Then I went to Syria(AO) and Cilicia.(AP) 22 I was personally unknown to the churches of Judea(AQ) that are in Christ.(AR) 23 They only heard the report: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith(AS) he once tried to destroy.”(AT) 24 And they praised God(AU) because of me.
