Galatians 1

Paulus apostolus non ab hominibus neque per hominem sed per Iesum Christum et Deum Patrem qui suscitavit eum a mortuis

Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)

et qui mecum sunt omnes fratres ecclesiis Galatiae

And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:

gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre et Domino nostro Iesu Christo

Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

qui dedit semet ipsum pro peccatis nostris ut eriperet nos de praesenti saeculo nequam secundum voluntatem Dei et Patris nostri

Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

cui est gloria in saecula saeculorum amen

To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

miror quod sic tam cito transferimini ab eo qui vos vocavit in gratiam Christi in aliud evangelium

I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

quod non est aliud nisi sunt aliqui qui vos conturbant et volunt convertere evangelium Christi

Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

sed licet nos aut angelus de caelo evangelizet vobis praeterquam quod evangelizavimus vobis anathema sit

But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

sicut praediximus et nunc iterum dico si quis vobis evangelizaverit praeter id quod accepistis anathema sit

As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

modo enim hominibus suadeo aut Deo aut quaero hominibus placere si adhuc hominibus placerem Christi servus non essem

For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

notum enim vobis facio fratres evangelium quod evangelizatum est a me quia non est secundum hominem

But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

neque enim ego ab homine accepi illud neque didici sed per revelationem Iesu Christi

For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

audistis enim conversationem meam aliquando in iudaismo quoniam supra modum persequebar ecclesiam Dei et expugnabam illam

For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:

et proficiebam in iudaismo supra multos coetaneos in genere meo abundantius aemulator existens paternarum mearum traditionum

And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

cum autem placuit ei qui me segregavit de utero matris meae et vocavit per gratiam suam

But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,

ut revelaret Filium suum in me ut evangelizarem illum in gentibus continuo non adquievi carni et sanguini

To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:

neque veni Hierosolyma ad antecessores meos apostolos sed abii in Arabiam et iterum reversus sum Damascum

Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.

deinde post annos tres veni Hierosolyma videre Petrum et mansi apud eum diebus quindecim

Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

alium autem apostolorum vidi neminem nisi Iacobum fratrem Domini

But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

quae autem scribo vobis ecce coram Deo quia non mentior

Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.

deinde veni in partes Syriae et Ciliciae

Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;

eram autem ignotus facie ecclesiis Iudaeae quae erant in Christo

And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:

tantum autem auditum habebant quoniam qui persequebatur nos aliquando nunc evangelizat fidem quam aliquando expugnabat

But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.

et in me clarificabant Deum

And they glorified God in me.
