1 T hen after a lapse of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with;

¶ Then fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas and took Titus with me also.

2 a nd I went up according to revelation, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preach among the nations, but privately to those conspicuous, lest in any way I run or had run in vain;

But I went up by revelation and communicated unto them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who seemed to be of repute, to not run, or have run, in vain.

3 ( but neither was Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, compelled to be circumcised;)

But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised,

4 a nd on account of the false brethren brought in surreptitiously, who came in surreptitiously to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage;

And that in spite of the false brethren, who entered secretly to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus that they might bring us into bondage;

5 t o whom we yielded in subjection not even for an hour, that the truth of the glad tidings might remain with you.

Unto whom we did not submit even for one hour that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.

6 B ut from those who were conspicuous as being somewhat—whatsoever they were, it makes no difference to me: God does not accept man's person; for to me those who were conspicuous communicated nothing;

But of these who seemed to be of repute, (whatever they were, it makes no matter to me: God does not accept the appearance of men), for those who seemed to be of repute in conference added nothing to me;

7 b ut, on the contrary, seeing that the glad tidings of the uncircumcision were confided to me, even as to Peter that of the circumcision,

But to the contrary, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter

8 ( for he that wrought in Peter for apostleship of the circumcision wrought also in me towards the Gentiles,)

(for he that showed himself forth in Peter for apostleship of the circumcision, the same also showed himself forth in me toward the Gentiles);

9 a nd recognising the grace given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were conspicuous as being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas right hands of fellowship, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision;

and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision.

10 o nly that we should remember the poor, which same thing also I was diligent to do.

Only they asked that we should remember the poor; the same which I was also diligent to do.

11 B ut when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to face, because he was to be condemned:

¶ But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face because he was to be blamed.

12 f or before that certain came from James, he ate with the nations; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those of circumcision;

For before certain ones came from James, he ate with the Gentiles, but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

13 a nd the rest of the Jews also played the same dissembling part with him; so that even Barnabas was carried away too by their dissimulation.

And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him, insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their hypocrisy.

14 B ut when I saw that they do not walk straightforwardly, according to the truth of the glad tidings, I said to Peter before all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as the nations and not as the Jews, how dost thou compel the nations to Judaize?

But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, dost live after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why dost thou compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

15 W e, Jews by nature, and not sinners of nations,

We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

16 b ut knowing that a man is not justified on the principle of works of law but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also have believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified on the principle of faith of Christ; and not of works of law; because on the principle of works of law no flesh shall be justified.

knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

17 N ow if in seeking to be justified in Christ we also have been found sinners, then Christ minister of sin? Far be the thought.

But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of our sin? No, in no wise.

18 F or if the things I have thrown down, these I build again, I constitute myself a transgressor.

For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a rebel.

19 F or I, through law, have died to law, that I may live to God.

For through the law I am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.

20 I am crucified with Christ, and no longer live, I, but Christ lives in me; but that I now live in flesh, I live by faith, the of the Son of God, who has loved me and given himself for me.

I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me, and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness by law, then Christ has died for nothing.

I do not reject the grace of God, for if righteousness comes by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
