1 Paul, an apostle—not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God [the] Father, the [One] having raised Him out from [the] dead— VP
2 and all the brothers with me, To the churches of Galatia: VP
3 Grace to you⁺ and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ, VP
4 the [One] having given Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us out of the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, VP
5 to whom [be] the glory to the ages of the ages. Amen. VP
6 I marvel that so quickly you⁺ are deserting from the [One] having called you⁺ in [the] grace of Christ to another gospel, VP
7 which is not another, except there are some who are troubling you⁺ and are wanting to pervert the gospel of Christ. VP
8 But even if we or an angel out of heaven should preach a gospel to you⁺ contrary to what we preached to you⁺, let him be accursed! VP
9 As we have said before, even now I say again: If anyone preaches a gospel [to] you⁺ contrary to what you⁺ received, let him be accursed! VP
10 For presently do I appease men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I would not be a servant of Christ. VP
11 For I make known to you⁺, brothers, the gospel having been preached by me, that it is not according to man. VP
12 For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught [it], but through a revelation of Jesus Christ. VP
13 For you⁺ heard of my conduct formerly in Judaism, that according to excess I was persecuting the church of God and was ravaging it. VP
14 And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many contemporaries among my kindred, being more abundantly zealous for [the] traditions of my fathers. VP
15 But when God was well pleased—the [One] having set me apart from [the] womb of my mother and having called [me] by His grace— VP
16 to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I conferred not immediately with flesh and blood, VP
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia and returned again to Damascus. VP
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to make acquaintance with Cephas, and I remained with him fifteen days. VP
19 But I did not see [any] of the other apostles except James, the brother of the Lord. VP
20 Now the things I write to you⁺, behold before God that I do not lie. VP
21 Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia. VP
22 But I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea that [are] in Christ. VP
23 But they were only hearing that “the [one] formerly persecuting us now preaches the faith that formerly he was ravaging.” VP
24 And they were glorifying God in me. VP
