Galatians 2:11-14
Legacy Standard Bible
Paul Opposes Peter (Cephas)
11 But when (A)Cephas came to (B)Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he [a]stood condemned. 12 For prior to the coming of certain men from (C)James, he used to (D)eat with the Gentiles, but when they came, he began to shrink back and separate himself, (E)fearing [b]the party of the circumcision. 13 And the rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, with the result that even (F)Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy. 14 But when I saw that they (G)were not [c]straightforward about (H)the truth of the gospel, I said to (I)Cephas before everyone, “If you, being a Jew, (J)live like the Gentiles and not like the Jews, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?[d]
