Galatians 2 - Interlinear Bible
The Council at Jerusalem
2
It was
because of a
revelation that I
went up; and I
submitted to them the
gospel which I
preach among the
Gentiles, but I did so in
private * to
those who were of
reputation, for
fear that I might be
running,
or had
run, in
vain.
3
But not
even Titus,
who was with me, though he was a
Greek, was
compelled to be
circumcised.
5
But we did not
yield in
subjection to them for
even an
hour,
so that the
truth of the
gospel would
remain with you.
7
But on the
contrary,
seeing that I had been
entrusted with the
gospel to the
uncircumcised,
just as
Peter had been to the
circumcised
9
and
recognizing the
grace that had been
given to me,
James and
Cephas and
John, who were
reputed to be
pillars,
gave to me and
Barnabas the
right hand of
fellowship,
so that we might go to the
Gentiles and they to the
circumcised.
10
They
only asked us to
remember the
poor - the
very thing I
also was
eager to
do.
Peter (Cephas) Opposed by Paul
12
For
prior to the
coming of
certain men from
James, he used to
eat with the
Gentiles ; but
when they
came, he began to
withdraw and
hold himself aloof,
fearing the party of the
circumcision.
14
But
when I
saw that they were not
straightforward about the
truth of the
gospel, I
said to
Cephas in the
presence of
all,
"If you,
being a
Jew,
live like the
Gentiles and not
like the
Jews,
how is it that you
compel the
Gentiles to
live like Jews ?
15
"We are
Jews by
nature and not
sinners from
among the
Gentiles ;
16
nevertheless knowing that a
man is not
justified by the
works of the
Law but
through faith in
Christ Jesus,
even we have
believed in
Christ Jesus,
so that we may be
justified by
faith in
Christ and not by the
works of the
Law ;
since by the
works of the
Law no * flesh will be
justified.
19
"For
through the
Law I
died to the
Law,
so that I might
live to
God.
20
"I have been
crucified with
Christ ; and it is
no longer I who
live, but
Christ lives in me; and the life
which I
now live in the
flesh I
live by
faith in the
Son of
God, who
loved me and
gave Himself up for me.
