| [1]Paul, an apostle -- not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who did raise him out of the dead -- |
[1]Παῦλος ἀπόστολος οὐκ ἀπ᾽ ἀνθρώπων οὐδὲ δι᾽ ἀνθρώπου, ἀλλὰ διὰ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ θεοῦ πατρὸς τοῦ ἐγείραντος αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν, |
| [2]and all the brethren with me, to the assemblies of Galatia: |
[2]καὶ οἱ σὺν ἐμοὶ πάντες ἀδελφοί, ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις τῆς Γαλατίας· |
| [3]Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, |
[3]χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ, |
| [4]who did give himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of the present evil age, according to the will of God even our Father, |
[4]τοῦ δόντος ἑαυτὸν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν, ὅπως ἐξέληται ἡμᾶς ἐκ τοῦ αἰῶνος τοῦ ἐνεστῶτος πονηροῦ, κατὰ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, |
| [5]to whom [is] the glory to the ages of the ages. Amen. |
[5]ᾧ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων. ἀμήν. |
| [6]I wonder that ye are so quickly removed from Him who did call you in the grace of Christ to another good news; |
[6]Θαυμάζω ὅτι οὕτως ταχέως μετατίθεσθε ἀπὸ τοῦ καλέσαντος ὑμᾶς ἐν χάριτι χριστοῦ εἰς ἕτερον εὐαγγέλιον, |
| [7]that is not another, except there be certain who are troubling you, and wishing to pervert the good news of the Christ; |
[7]ὃ οὐκ ἔστιν ἄλλο, εἰ μή τινές εἰσιν οἱ ταράσσοντες ὑμᾶς καὶ θέλοντες μεταστρέψαι τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τοῦ χριστοῦ. |
| [8]but even if we or a messenger out of heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we did proclaim to you -- anathema let him be! |
[8]ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐὰν ἡμεῖς ἢ ἄγγελος ἐξ οὐρανοῦ εὐαγγελίζηται ὑμῖν παρ᾽ ὃ εὐηγγελισάμεθα ὑμῖν, ἀνάθεμα ἔστω. |
| [9]as we have said before, and now say again, If any one to you may proclaim good news different from what ye did receive -- anathema let him be! |
[9]ὡς προειρήκαμεν, καὶ ἄρτι πάλιν λέγω, εἴ τις ὑμᾶς εὐαγγελίζεται παρ᾽ ὃ παρελάβετε, ἀνάθεμα ἔστω. |
| [10]for now men do I persuade, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if yet men I did please -- Christ's servant I should not be. |
[10]ἄρτι γὰρ ἀνθρώπους πείθω, ἢ τὸν θεόν; ἢ ζητῶ ἀνθρώποις ἀρέσκειν; εἰ ἔτι ἀνθρώποις ἤρεσκον, χριστοῦ δοῦλος οὐκ ἂν ἤμην. |
| [11]And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that were proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man, |
[11]Γνωρίζω γὰρ ὑμῖν, ἀδελφοί, τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τὸ εὐαγγελισθὲν ὑπ᾽ ἐμοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν κατὰ ἄνθρωπον· |
| [12]for neither did I from man receive it, nor was I taught [it], but through a revelation of Jesus Christ, |
[12]οὐδὲ γὰρ ἐγὼ παρὰ ἀνθρώπου παρέλαβον αὐτὸ οὐδὲ ἐδιδάχθην, ἀλλὰ δι᾽ ἀποκαλύψεως Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ. |
| [13]for ye did hear of my behaviour once in Judaism, that exceedingly I was persecuting the assembly of God, and wasting it, |
[13]ἠκούσατε γὰρ τὴν ἐμὴν ἀναστροφήν ποτε ἐν τῷ Ἰουδαϊσμῷ, ὅτι καθ᾽ ὑπερβολὴν ἐδίωκον τὴν ἐκκλησίαν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐπόρθουν αὐτήν· |
| [14]and I was advancing in Judaism above many equals in age in mine own race, being more abundantly zealous of my fathers' deliverances, |
[14]καὶ προέκοπτον ἐν τῷ Ἰουδαϊσμῷ ὑπὲρ πολλοὺς συνηλικιώτας ἐν τῷ γένει μου, περισσοτέρως ζηλωτὴς ὑπάρχων τῶν πατρικῶν μου παραδόσεων. |
| [15]and when God was well pleased -- having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called [me] through His grace -- |
[15]ὅτε δὲ εὐδόκησεν ὁ θεὸς ὁ ἀφορίσας με ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός μου καὶ καλέσας διὰ τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ |
| [16]to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim him good news among the nations, immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood, |
[16]ἀποκαλύψαι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν ἐμοί, ἵνα εὐαγγελίζωμαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, εὐθέως οὐ προσανεθέμην σαρκὶ καὶ αἵματι, |
| [17]nor did I go up to Jerusalem unto those who were apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus, |
[17]οὐδὲ ἀνῆλθον εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα πρὸς τοὺς πρὸ ἐμοῦ ἀποστόλους, ἀλλὰ ἀπῆλθον εἰς Ἀραβίαν, καὶ πάλιν ὑπέστρεψα εἰς Δαμασκόν. |
| [18]then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to enquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days, |
[18]ἔπειτα μετὰ ἔτη τρία ἀνῆλθον εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα ἱστορῆσαι Κηφᾶν, καὶ ἐπέμεινα πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡμέρας δεκαπέντε· |
| [19]and other of the apostles I did not see, except James, the brother of the Lord. |
[19]ἕτερον δὲ τῶν ἀποστόλων οὐκ εἶδον, εἰ μὴ Ἰάκωβον τὸν ἀδελφὸν τοῦ κυρίου. |
| [20]And the things that I write to you, lo, before God -- I lie not; |
[20]ἃ δὲ γράφω ὑμῖν, ἰδοὺ ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ ὅτι οὐ ψεύδομαι. |
| [21]then I came to the regions of Syria and of Cilicia, |
[21]ἔπειτα ἦλθον εἰς τὰ κλίματα τῆς Συρίας καὶ τῆς Κιλικίας· |
| [22]and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that [are] in Christ, |
[22]ἤμην δὲ ἀγνοούμενος τῷ προσώπῳ ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις τῆς Ἰουδαίας ταῖς ἐν χριστῷ, |
| [23]and only they were hearing, that `he who is persecuting us then, doth now proclaim good news -- the faith that then he was wasting;' |
[23]μόνον δὲ ἀκούοντες ἦσαν ὅτι Ὁ διώκων ἡμᾶς ποτὲ νῦν εὐαγγελίζεται τὴν πίστιν ἥν ποτε ἐπόρθει· |
| [24]and they were glorifying God in me. |
[24]καὶ ἐδόξαζον ἐν ἐμοὶ τὸν θεόν. |
