Paul Accepted by the Apostles

2 Then after fourteen years I ^(A)went up again to Jerusalem with ^(B)Barnabas, taking ^(C)Titus along also. ² And I went up ^[a]because of a ^(D)revelation, and I laid out to them the ^(E)gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but I did so in private to those who were of reputation, lest somehow I might be ^(F)running, or had run, in vain. ³ But not even ^(G)Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was ^(H)compelled to be circumcised. ⁴ But this was because of the ^(I)false brothers secretly brought in, who ^(J)had sneaked in to spy out our ^(K)freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to ^(L)enslave us. ⁵ But we did not yield in subjection to them for even ^[b]a moment, so that ^(M)the truth of the gospel would remain with you. ⁶ But from those who ^[c]were of high ^(N)reputation (what they were makes no difference to me; ^(O)God ^[d]shows no partiality)—well, those who were of reputation contributed nothing to me. ⁷ But on the contrary, seeing that I had been ^(P)entrusted with the ^(Q)gospel ^[e]to the uncircumcised, just as ^(R)Peter had been ^[f]to the circumcised ⁸ (for He who worked in Peter unto his ^(S)apostleship ^[g]to the circumcised worked in me also unto the Gentiles), ⁹ and recognizing ^(T)the grace that had been given to me, ^(U)James and ^(V)Cephas and ^[h]John, who were ^(W)reputed to be ^(X)pillars, gave to me and ^(Y)Barnabas the ^(Z)right ^[i]hand of fellowship, so that we might ^(AA)go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. ¹⁰ Only they asked us to remember the poor—^(AB)the very thing I also was eager to do.
