Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
manuṣyebhyo nahi manuṣyairapi nahi kintu yīśukhrīṣṭena mṛtagaṇamadhyāt tasyotthāpayitrā pitreśvareṇa ca prerito yo'haṁ paulaḥ so'haṁ
2 and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
matsahavarttino bhrātaraśca vayaṁ gālātīyadeśasthāḥ samitīḥ prati patraṁ likhāmaḥ|
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
pitreśvareṇāsmāṁka prabhunā yīśunā khrīṣṭena ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca dīyatāṁ|
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father— (aiōn g165)
asmākaṁ tāteśvaresyecchānusāreṇa varttamānāt kutsitasaṁsārād asmān nistārayituṁ yo (aiōn g165)
yīśurasmākaṁ pāpahetorātmotsargaṁ kṛtavān sa sarvvadā dhanyo bhūyāt| tathāstu| (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,
khrīṣṭasyānugraheṇa yo yuṣmān āhūtavān tasmānnivṛtya yūyam atitūrṇam anyaṁ susaṁvādam anvavarttata tatrāhaṁ vismayaṁ manye|
7 but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
so'nyasusaṁvādaḥ susaṁvādo nahi kintu kecit mānavā yuṣmān cañcalīkurvvanti khrīṣṭīyasusaṁvādasya viparyyayaṁ karttuṁ ceṣṭante ca|
8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau yaḥ susaṁvādo'smābhi rghoṣitastasmād anyaḥ susaṁvādo'smākaṁ svargīyadūtānāṁ vā madhye kenacid yadi ghoṣyate tarhi sa śapto bhavatu|
9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
pūrvvaṁ yadvad akathayāma, idānīmahaṁ punastadvat kathayāmi yūyaṁ yaṁ susaṁvādaṁ gṛhītavantastasmād anyo yena kenacid yuṣmatsannidhau ghoṣyate sa śapto bhavatu|
10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.
sāmprataṁ kamaham anunayāmi? īśvaraṁ kiṁvā mānavān? ahaṁ kiṁ mānuṣebhyo rocituṁ yate? yadyaham idānīmapi mānuṣebhyo ruruciṣeya tarhi khrīṣṭasya paricārako na bhavāmi|
11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.
he bhrātaraḥ, mayā yaḥ susaṁvādo ghoṣitaḥ sa mānuṣānna labdhastadahaṁ yuṣmān jñāpayāmi|
12 For I didn’t receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
ahaṁ kasmāccit manuṣyāt taṁ na gṛhītavān na vā śikṣitavān kevalaṁ yīśoḥ khrīṣṭasya prakāśanādeva|
13 For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged it.
purā yihūdimatācārī yadāham āsaṁ tadā yādṛśam ācaraṇam akaravam īśvarasya samitiṁ pratyatīvopadravaṁ kurvvan yādṛk tāṁ vyanāśayaṁ tadavaśyaṁ śrutaṁ yuṣmābhiḥ|
14 I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
aparañca pūrvvapuruṣaparamparāgateṣu vākyeṣvanyāpekṣātīvāsaktaḥ san ahaṁ yihūdidharmmate mama samavayaskān bahūn svajātīyān atyaśayi|
15 But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace,
kiñca ya īśvaro mātṛgarbhasthaṁ māṁ pṛthak kṛtvā svīyānugraheṇāhūtavān
16 to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn’t immediately confer with flesh and blood,
sa yadā mayi svaputraṁ prakāśituṁ bhinnadeśīyānāṁ samīpe bhayā taṁ ghoṣayituñcābhyalaṣat tadāhaṁ kravyaśoṇitābhyāṁ saha na mantrayitvā
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
pūrvvaniyuktānāṁ preritānāṁ samīpaṁ yirūśālamaṁ na gatvāravadeśaṁ gatavān paścāt tatsthānād dammeṣakanagaraṁ parāvṛtyāgatavān|
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
tataḥ paraṁ varṣatraye vyatīte'haṁ pitaraṁ sambhāṣituṁ yirūśālamaṁ gatvā pañcadaśadināni tena sārddham atiṣṭhaṁ|
19 But of the other apostles I saw no one except James, the Lord’s brother.
kintu taṁ prabho rbhrātaraṁ yākūbañca vinā preritānāṁ nānyaṁ kamapyapaśyaṁ|
20 Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I’m not lying.
yānyetāni vākyāni mayā likhyante tānyanṛtāni na santi tad īśvaro jānāti|
21 Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
tataḥ param ahaṁ suriyāṁ kilikiyāñca deśau gatavān|
22 I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,
tadānīṁ yihūdādeśasthānāṁ khrīṣṭasya samitīnāṁ lokāḥ sākṣāt mama paricayamaprāpya kevalaṁ janaśrutimimāṁ labdhavantaḥ,
23 but they only heard, “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”
yo janaḥ pūrvvam asmān pratyupadravamakarot sa tadā yaṁ dharmmamanāśayat tamevedānīṁ pracārayatīti|
24 So they glorified God in me.
tasmāt te māmadhīśvaraṁ dhanyamavadan|
