Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Yahushua the Messiah, and YHWH the Father, who raised him from the dead; )
Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the assemblies of Galatia:
and all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
3 Favour be to you and peace from YHWH the Father, and from our Master Yahushua the Messiah,
Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of YHWH our Father: (aiōn g165)
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father: (aiōn g165)
to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the favour of the Messiah unto another evangel:
I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from him that called you in the grace of Christ unto a different gospel;
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the glad tidings of the Messiah.
which is not another [gospel]: only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other evangel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that which we preached unto you, let him be anathema.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other evangel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
As we have said before, so say I now again, If any man preacheth unto you any gospel other than that which ye received, let him be anathema.
10 For do I now persuade men, or YHWH? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of the Messiah.
For am I now persuading men, or God? or am I seeking to please men? if I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the glad tidings which was preached of me is not after man.
For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Yahushua the Messiah.
For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but [it came to me] through revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of YHWH, and wasted it:
For ye have heard of my manner of life in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and made havock of it:
14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
and I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of mine own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased YHWH, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his favour,
But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me, [even] from my mother’s womb, and called me through his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me: but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned unto Damascus.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and tarried with him fifteen days.
19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Master's brother.
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s brother.
20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before YHWH, I lie not.
Now touching the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
Then I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 And was unknown by face unto the assemblies of Judaea which were in the Messiah:
And I was still unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
but they only heard say, He that once persecuted us now preacheth the faith of which he once made havock;
24 And they glorified YHWH in me.
and they glorified God in me.
