Galatians 1:6-10
New King James Version
Only One Gospel
6 I marvel that you are turning away so soon (A)from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, 7 (B)which is not another; but there are some (C)who trouble you and want to (D)pervert[a] the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if (E)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 (F)than what you have received, let him be accursed.
10 For (G)do I now (H)persuade men, or God? Or (I)do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

American Standard Version
6 I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from him that called you in the grace of Christ unto a different [a]gospel; 7 [b]which is not another gospel: only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the [c]gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, should [d]preach [e]unto you any gospel [f]other than that which we [g]preached unto you, let him be anathema. 9 As we have said before, so say I now again, If any man [h]preacheth unto you any gospel [i]other than that which ye received, let him be anathema. 10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? or am I striving to please men? if I were still pleasing men, I should not be a [j]servant of Christ.

Galatians 1:6-10
New International Version
No Other Gospel
6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called(A) you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel(B)— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion(C) and are trying to pervert(D) 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,(E) let them be under God’s curse!(F) 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,(G) 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?(H) If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
