Butof these who seemed to besomewhat,* (whatsoever theywere , it makethnomatter to me:Godacceptethnoman's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference addednothing to me:
7
Butcontrariwise, when they sawthat the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me , as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;
8
(For he that wrought effectually in Peterto the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in metoward the Gentiles:)
9
And when James*, Cephas,andJohn,whoseemed to bepillars,perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to meandBarnabas the right hands of fellowship;thatwe should go unto the heathen,andtheyunto the circumcision.
10
Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same*whichIalso was forward to do .
11
ButwhenPeter was cometoAntioch, I withstoodhimto the face,because he was to be blamed .
12
Forbefore that certaincamefromJames, he did eatwith the Gentiles:butwhen they were come , he withdrewandseparatedhimself,fearing them which were of the circumcision.
13
And the otherJewsdissembledlikewise with him;insomuch that Barnabasalso was carried away with theirdissimulation.
14
Butwhen I sawthat they walkednotuprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peterbefore them all,Ifthou,being a Jew,livest after the manner of Gentiles,andnot as do the Jews,why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews ?
15
We who are Jews by nature,andnotsinnersof the Gentiles,
16
Knowingthat a manisnotjustifiedby the works of the law,butby the faith of JesusChrist,evenwe have believedinJesusChrist,that we might be justifiedby the faith of Christ,andnotby the works of the law:forby the works of the lawshallno*flesh be justified .
