1And since fourteen years after [or Afterward after fourteen years], again I went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took with me Titus.

2I went up by revelation, and spake with them the evangel [or the gospel], which I preach among the heathen; and by themselves to these that seemed to be somewhat, lest I run [or lest peradventure I should run], or had run in vain.

3And neither Titus, that had been with me, while he was heathen, was compelled to be circumcised;

4but for false brethren that were brought in, which had [privily] entered to espy our freedom [or our liberty], which we have in Jesus Christ, to bring [or to drive] us into servage.

5But we gave no place to subjection, that the truth of the gospel should dwell with you.

6But of these that seemed to be somewhat; which they were some-time, it pertaineth not to me, for God taketh not the person of man; for they that seemed to be somewhat, gave me nothing.

7But on the contrary, when they had seen, that the evangel of prepuce was given to me [or that the gospel of heathen men is betaken to me], as the evangel of circumcision was given to Peter;

8for he that wrought to Peter in apostlehood of circumcision, wrought also to me among the heathen;

9and when they had known the grace of God, that was given to me, James, and Peter [or Cephas], and John, which were seen to be the pillars, they gave the right hand of fellowship to me and to Barnabas, that we [preach] among the heathen, and they into the circumcision;

10only that we had mind of, [or that we should be mindful of], poor men, the which thing I was full busy to do.

11But when Peter was come to Antioch, I against-stood him in the face, for he was worthy to be reproved.

12For before that there came some men from James [or before that some came from James], he ate with heathen men; but when they were come, he withdrew, and departed him, dreading them that were of circumcision.

13And the other Jews assented [or consented] to his feigning, so that Barnabas was drawn of them into that feigning.

14But when I saw, that they walked not rightly to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter [or to Cephas] before all men, If thou, that art a Jew, livest heathen-like, and not Jew-like, how constrainest thou heathen men to become Jews?

15We Jews of kind, and not sinful men of the heathen,

16know that a man is not justified of the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ; and we believe in Jesus Christ, that we be justified of [or by] the faith of Christ, and not of the works of the law. Wherefore of the works of the law each flesh shall not be justified.

17And if we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves be found sinful men [or to be sinners], whether Christ be minister of sin? God forbid.

18And if I build again things that I have destroyed, I make myself a trespasser.

19For by the law I am dead to the law, [For by the law I am dead to the law, that I live to God;]

20and I am fixed to the cross, that I live to God with Christ. And now live not I, but Christ liveth in me. But that I live now in flesh, I live in the faith of God’s Son, that loved me, and gave himself for me. [with Christ I am fixed to the cross. Forsooth I live now, not I, but Christ liveth in me. Forsooth that I live now in flesh, I live in the faith of God’s son, the which loved me, and betook himself for me.]

21I cast not away the grace of God; for if rightwiseness be through [or is by] law, then Christ died without cause.
