Then after the space of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me. And I went up by revelation; and I laid before them the [a]gospel which I preach among the Gentiles but privately before them who [b]were of repute, lest by any means I should be running, or had run, in vain. But not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised: [c]and that because of the false brethren privily brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: to whom we gave place in the way of subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the [d]gospel might continue with you. But from those who [e]were reputed to be somewhat [f](whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth not man’s person)—they, I say, who were of repute imparted nothing to me: but contrariwise, when they saw that I had been intrusted with the [g]gospel of the uncircumcision, even as Peter with the [h]gospel of the circumcision (for he that wrought for Peter unto the apostleship of the circumcision wrought for me also unto the Gentiles); and when they perceived the grace that was given unto me, [i]James and Cephas and John, they who [j]were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision; 10 only they would that we should remember the poor; which very thing I was also zealous to do.

Then epeita after dia fourteen dekatessares years etos I went up anabainō again palin to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma with meta Barnabas Barnabas, taking symparalambanō Titus Titos along as well kai. I went up anabainō · de in response to kata a revelation apokalypsis and kai laid out before anatithēmi them autos though de privately kata before the ho acknowledged dokeō leaders— the ho gospel euangelion that hos I proclaim kēryssō among en the ho Gentiles ethnos, lest somehow pōs I was running trechō, or ē had run trechō, in eis vain kenos. Yet alla not oude even Titus Titos, who ho was with syn me egō, was compelled anankazō to be circumcised peritemnō, though he was eimi a Greek Hellēn. This matter came up because dia of · de some ho false brothers pseudadelphos secretly brought in pareisaktos they hostis had slipped in pareiserchomai to spy out kataskopeō · ho our hēmeis freedom eleutheria that hos we have echō in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous so that hina they might make slaves of katadouloō us hēmeis but to them hos we did eikō not oude yield eikō in ho submission hypotagē even for pros a moment hōra, so that hina the ho truth alētheia of the ho gospel euangelion would be preserved diamenō for pros you hymeis. But de from apo those ho who were supposed dokeō to be eimi acknowledged leaders tis ( what hopoios they were eimi makes diapherō no oudeis difference diapherō to me egō; God theos shows lambanō no ou partiality prosōpon) · ho those ho leaders dokeō contributed prosanatithēmi nothing oudeis to me egō. But alla on the contrary, when they saw that hoti I had been entrusted pisteuō with the ho gospel euangelion for the ho uncircumcised akrobystia just kathōs as Peter Petros had been entrusted with the gospel for the ho circumcised peritomē ( for gar the ho one who empowered energeō Peter Petros for eis his apostleship apostolē to the ho circumcised peritomē also kai empowered energeō me for mine egō to eis the ho Gentiles ethnos) and kai when James Iakōbos and kai Cephas Kēphas and kai John Iōannēs, who ho were eimi acknowledged dokeō pillars stylos, recognized ginōskō the ho grace charis that ho had been given didōmi to me egō, they gave didōmi to Barnabas Barnabas and kai me egō the right dexios hand of fellowship koinōnia, agreeing that hina we hēmeis should go to eis the ho Gentiles ethnos and de they autos to eis the ho circumcised peritomē. 10 They asked only monon that hina we should continue to remember mnēmoneuō the ho poor ptōchos, the hos very autos thing houtos I too kai was eager spoudazō to do poieō.
