And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that were proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man,

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,

and only they were hearing, that 'he who is persecuting us then, doth now proclaim good news -- the faith that then he was wasting;'

and they were glorifying God in me.

And from those who were esteemed to be something -- whatever they were then, it maketh no difference to me -- the face of man God accepteth not, for -- to me those esteemed did add nothing,

and having known the grace that was given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who were esteemed to be pillars, a right hand of fellowship they did give to me, and to Barnabas, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision may go,

And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!

and to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed; He doth not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but as of one, 'And to thy seed,' which is Christ;

And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed,

for as many as to Christ were baptized did put on Christ;

so also we, when we were babes, under the elements of the world were in servitude,

But then, indeed, not having known God, ye were in servitude to those not by nature gods,

ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;

Ye were running well; who did hinder you -- not to obey the truth?

For ye -- to freedom ye were called, brethren, only not the freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through the love serve ye one another,
