Galatians 1
1 Paul, an Apostle, not from men, neither by man; but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father who raised him from the dead;
παυλος αποστολος ουκ απ ανθρωπων ουδε δι ανθρωπου αλλα δια ιησου χριστου και θεου πατρος του εγειραντος αυτον εκ νεκρων
2 and all the brethren who are with me, to the congregations of Galatia:
και οι συν εμοι παντες αδελφοι ταις εκκλησιαις της γαλατιας
3 Favor to you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος και κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
του δοντος εαυτον υπερ των αμαρτιων ημων οπως εξεληται ημας εκ του ενεστωτος αιωνος πονηρου κατα το θελημα του θεου και πατρος ημων (aiōn g165)
ω η δοξα εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων αμην (aiōn g165)
6 I wonder that you are so soon removed from him who called you into the favor of Christ, to another gospel;
θαυμαζω οτι ουτως ταχεως μετατιθεσθε απο του καλεσαντος υμας εν χαριτι χριστου εις ετερον ευαγγελιον
7 which is not another: but there are some who trouble you, and wish to pervert the gospel of Christ.
ο ουκ εστιν αλλο ει μη τινες εισιν οι ταρασσοντες υμας και θελοντες μεταστρεψαι το ευαγγελιον του χριστου
8 But if even we, or an angel from heaven, declare a gospel to you, different from what we have declared to you, let him be accursed.
αλλα και εαν ημεις η αγγελος εξ ουρανου ευαγγελιζηται υμιν παρ ο ευηγγελισαμεθα υμιν αναθεμα εστω
9 As we said before, so now I say again, if any one declare a gospel to you, different from what you have received, let him be accursed.
ως προειρηκαμεν και αρτι παλιν λεγω ει τις υμας ευαγγελιζεται παρ ο παρελαβετε αναθεμα εστω
10 For do I now conciliate men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
αρτι γαρ ανθρωπους πειθω η τον θεον η ζητω ανθρωποις αρεσκειν ει γαρ ετι ανθρωποις ηρεσκον χριστου δουλος ουκ αν ημην
11 Now I certify you, brethren, concerning the gospel which was declared by me, that it is not according to men.
γνωριζω δε υμιν αδελφοι το ευαγγελιον το ευαγγελισθεν υπ εμου οτι ουκ εστιν κατα ανθρωπον
12 For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, except by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
ουδε γαρ εγω παρα ανθρωπου παρελαβον αυτο ουτε εδιδαχθην αλλα δι αποκαλυψεως ιησου χριστου
13 You have certainly heard of my behavior formerly in Judaism; that I exceedingly persecuted the congregation of God, and laid it waste;
ηκουσατε γαρ την εμην αναστροφην ποτε εν τω ιουδαισμω οτι καθ υπερβολην εδιωκον την εκκλησιαν του θεου και επορθουν αυτην
14 and made progress in Judaism above many of the same age with myself, in my own nation, being more exceedingly jealous of the traditions of my fathers.
και προεκοπτον εν τω ιουδαισμω υπερ πολλους συνηλικιωτας εν τω γενει μου περισσοτερως ζηλωτης υπαρχων των πατρικων μου παραδοσεων
15 But when God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his favor, was pleased
οτε δε ευδοκησεν ο θεος ο αφορισας με εκ κοιλιας μητρος μου και καλεσας δια της χαριτος αυτου
16 to reveal his Son to me, that I might declare the good news concerning him to the Gentiles; immediately I did not consult flesh and blood:
αποκαλυψαι τον υιον αυτου εν εμοι ινα ευαγγελιζωμαι αυτον εν τοις εθνεσιν ευθεως ου προσανεθεμην σαρκι και αιματι
17 neither did I go up to Jerusalem, to them who were Apostles before me; but I went away in Arabia, and again returned to Damascus.
ουδε ανηλθον εις ιεροσολυμα προς τους προ εμου αποστολους αλλα απηλθον εις αραβιαν και παλιν υπεστρεψα εις δαμασκον
18 Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem, to become acquainted with Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
επειτα μετα ετη τρια ανηλθον εις ιεροσολυμα ιστορησαι πετρον και επεμεινα προς αυτον ημερας δεκαπεντε
19 But I saw no other of the Apostles, except James, the Lord's brother.
ετερον δε των αποστολων ουκ ειδον ει μη ιακωβον τον αδελφον του κυριου
20 Now as to the things which I write to you, behold, God is my witness that I do not falsely affirm.
α δε γραφω υμιν ιδου ενωπιον του θεου οτι ου ψευδομαι
21 After that, I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
επειτα ηλθον εις τα κλιματα της συριας και της κιλικιας
22 and I was personally unknown to the congregations of Judea which are in Christ.
ημην δε αγνοουμενος τω προσωπω ταις εκκλησιαις της ιουδαιας ταις εν χριστω
23 They had only heard that--he who formerly persecuted us, now announces, as glad tidings, the faith which he formerly destroyed.
μονον δε ακουοντες ησαν οτι ο διωκων ημας ποτε νυν ευαγγελιζεται την πιστιν ην ποτε επορθει
24 And they glorified God on my account.
και εδοξαζον εν εμοι τον θεον
