Galatians 2:1-10

Revised Geneva Translation

2 Then, fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took with me Titus also.

² And I went up by revelation and declared to them that Gospel which I preach among the Gentiles (but privately to those who were the chief, lest by any means I should run - or had run - in vain).

³ But not even Titus - who was with me, though he were a Grecian - was compelled to be circumcised,

⁴ This was because of the false brethren who were craftily sent in; and crept in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might bring us into bondage.

⁵ But we gave them no place, not even for an hour, that the truth of the Gospel might continue with you.

⁶ But by those who seemed to be great, I was not taught (whatever they were in time past, I am nothing the better; God accepts no man’s person) For those who are the chief have added nothing to me above what I had.

⁷ But on the contrary, when they saw that the Gospel was committed to me over the uncircumcision, as the Gospel over the circumcision was to Peter:

⁸ (For he who was mighty by Peter in the Apostleship over the circumcision, was also mighty by me toward the Gentiles.)

⁹ And when James and Cephas and John knew of the grace that was given to me - who are counted as pillars - they gave to me and to Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should preach to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;

¹⁰ Warning only that we should remember the poor. Which I was also diligent to do.
