against the truth, but for the truth.
9
For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this
also we wish,
even
your perfection.
10
Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present
I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and
not to destruction.
11
Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and
the God of love and peace shall be with you.
12
Greet one another with an holy kiss.
13
All the saints salute you.
14
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the
communion of the Holy Ghost,
be
with you all. Amen.
The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the
Galatians
CHAPTER 1
Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised
him from the dead;)
2
And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
3
Grace
be
to you and peace from God the Father, and
from
our Lord Jesus Christ,
4
Who gave himself for
our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our
Father:
5
To whom
be
glory for ever and ever. Amen.
6
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto
another gospel:
7
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the
gospel of Christ.
8
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than
that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9
As we said before, so say I now again,
If any
man
preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I
should not be the servant of Christ.
11
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached
of me is not after man.
12
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught
it,
but by the revelation
of Jesus Christ.
13
For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how
that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
14
And profited in the Jews’
religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions
of my fathers.
15
But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called
me
by his grace,
16
To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately
I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17
Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles
before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
18
Then after three years I
went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
19
But other of the apostles saw
I none, save James the Lord’s brother.
20
Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before
