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 other’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 God I lie not
21
Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia
22
And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ
23
But they had heard only That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed
24
And they glorified God in me
