Galatians 2:1-10 - Paul's Ministry Recognized By The Jerusalem Apostles

¹ Then, fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and I took Titus also with me. ² And I went up because of a revelation, and communicated to them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who are of reputation, lest, by any means, I should run or had run in vain. ³ But not even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised. ⁴ I acted thus indeed on account of false brethren, stealthily brought in, who stole in to spy out our freedom, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage, ⁵ to whom we yielded in submission, not even for an hour, in order that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.

⁶ But from those who were supposed to be something; (what they were is a matter of no importance to me: God does not accept the person of man;) they, indeed, who were supposed to be something, communicated no additional truth to me; ⁷ but; on the other hand, seeing that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter was with that of the circumcision, ⁸ (for he who gave efficiency to Peter, for the apostleship of the circumcision, gave efficiency to me also, as an apostle for the Gentiles,) ⁹ and knowing the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, but they to the circumcision, ¹⁰ requesting only that we would remember the poor, which same thing I have been diligent in doing.
