The Council at Jerusalem

(cf. Act 15:1–21 )
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:1 - Then after a lapse of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:2 - and I went up according to revelation, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preach among the nations, but privately to those conspicuous among them, lest in any way I run or had run in vain;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:3 - (but neither was Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, compelled to be circumcised;)
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:4 - and it was on account of the false brethren brought in surreptitiously, who came in surreptitiously to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:5 - to whom we yielded in subjection not even for an hour, that the truth of the glad tidings might remain with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:6 - But from those who were conspicuous as being somewhat -- whatsoever they were, it makes no difference to me: God does not accept man's person; for to me those who were conspicuous communicated nothing;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:7 - but, on the contrary, seeing that the glad tidings of the uncircumcision were confided to me, even as to Peter that of the circumcision,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:8 - (for he that wrought in Peter for the apostleship of the circumcision wrought also in me towards the Gentiles,)
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:9 - and recognising the grace given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were conspicuous as being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that *we* should go to the nations, and *they* to the circumcision;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:10 - only that we should remember the poor, which same thing also I was diligent to do.

Peter (Cephas) Opposed by Paul

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:11 - But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be condemned:
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:12 - for before that certain came from James, he ate with those of the nations; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those of the circumcision;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:13 - and the rest of the Jews also played the same dissembling part with him; so that even Barnabas was carried away too by their dissimulation.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:14 - But when I saw that they do not walk straightforwardly, according to the truth of the glad tidings, I said to Peter before all, If *thou*, being a Jew, livest as the nations and not as the Jews, how dost thou compel the nations to Judaize?
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:15 - We, Jews by nature, and not sinners of the nations,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:16 - but knowing that a man is not justified on the principle of works of law nor but by the faith of Jesus Christ, *we* also have believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified on the principle of the faith of Christ; and not of works of law; because on the principle of works of law no flesh shall be justified.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:17 - Now if in seeking to be justified in Christ we also have been found sinners, then is Christ minister of sin? Far be the thought.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:18 - For if the things I have thrown down, these I build again, I constitute myself a transgressor.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:19 - For *I*, through law, have died to law, that I may live to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:20 - I am crucified with Christ, and no longer live, *I*, but Christ lives in me; but in that I now live in flesh, I live by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who has loved me and given himself for me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:21 - I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness is by law, then Christ has died for nothing.
DBY

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
