1 manuSyEbhyO nahi manuSyairapi nahi kintu yIzukhrISTEna mRtagaNamadhyAt tasyOtthApayitrA pitrEzvarENa ca prEritO yO'haM paulaH sO'haM
Paul an apostle (not from men, nor by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),
2 matsahavarttinO bhrAtarazca vayaM gAlAtIyadEzasthAH samitIH prati patraM likhAmaH|
and all the brethren that are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3 pitrEzvarENAsmAMka prabhunA yIzunA khrISTEna ca yuSmabhyam anugrahaH zAntizca dIyatAM|
grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
who gave himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from the present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father: (aiōn g165)
to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 khrISTasyAnugrahENa yO yuSmAn AhUtavAn tasmAnnivRtya yUyam atitUrNam anyaM susaMvAdam anvavarttata tatrAhaM vismayaM manyE|
I wonder that ye are so soon removed from him who called you by the grace of Christ to another gospel: which is not another;
7 sO'nyasusaMvAdaH susaMvAdO nahi kintu kEcit mAnavA yuSmAn canjcalIkurvvanti khrISTIyasusaMvAdasya viparyyayaM karttuM cESTantE ca|
but there be some that disturb you, and would subvert the gospel of Christ.
8 yuSmAkaM sannidhau yaH susaMvAdO'smAbhi rghOSitastasmAd anyaH susaMvAdO'smAkaM svargIyadUtAnAM vA madhyE kEnacid yadi ghOSyatE tarhi sa zaptO bhavatu|
But tho' we or an angel from heaven should preach to you any other gospel than what we have preached to you; let him be accursed.
9 pUrvvaM yadvad akathayAma, idAnImahaM punastadvat kathayAmi yUyaM yaM susaMvAdaM gRhItavantastasmAd anyO yEna kEnacid yuSmatsannidhau ghOSyatE sa zaptO bhavatu|
I say it again, if any one preach to you any other gospel than what ye have received, let him be accursed.
10 sAmprataM kamaham anunayAmi? IzvaraM kiMvA mAnavAn? ahaM kiM mAnuSEbhyO rOcituM yatE? yadyaham idAnImapi mAnuSEbhyO ruruciSEya tarhi khrISTasya paricArakO na bhavAmi|
For do I now persuade you to obey men or God? Or do I seek to please men? if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11 hE bhrAtaraH, mayA yaH susaMvAdO ghOSitaH sa mAnuSAnna labdhastadahaM yuSmAn jnjApayAmi|
But I assure you, brethren, that the gospel preached by me is not of human invention.
12 ahaM kasmAccit manuSyAt taM na gRhItavAn na vA zikSitavAn kEvalaM yIzOH khrISTasya prakAzanAdEva|
For I neither received it, nor was taught it by man, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 purA yihUdimatAcArI yadAham AsaM tadA yAdRzam AcaraNam akaravam Izvarasya samitiM pratyatIvOpadravaM kurvvan yAdRk tAM vyanAzayaM tadavazyaM zrutaM yuSmAbhiH|
For ye have heard of my conversation formerly in Judaism, that I outragiously persecuted the church of God, and laid it waste:
14 aparanjca pUrvvapuruSaparamparAgatESu vAkyESvanyApEkSAtIvAsaktaH san ahaM yihUdidharmmatE mama samavayaskAn bahUn svajAtIyAn atyazayi|
and I made a proficiency in Judaism above many of the same age with me in my own nation, being excessively zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 kinjca ya IzvarO mAtRgarbhasthaM mAM pRthak kRtvA svIyAnugrahENAhUtavAn
But when it pleased God, (who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, )
16 sa yadA mayi svaputraM prakAzituM bhinnadEzIyAnAM samIpE bhayA taM ghOSayitunjcAbhyalaSat tadAhaM kravyazONitAbhyAM saha na mantrayitvA
to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach Him among the gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood,
17 pUrvvaniyuktAnAM prEritAnAM samIpaM yirUzAlamaM na gatvAravadEzaM gatavAn pazcAt tatsthAnAd dammESakanagaraM parAvRtyAgatavAn|
nor went I up to Jerusalem to those that were apostles before me, but I departed into Arabia, and afterwards returned again to Damascus.
18 tataH paraM varSatrayE vyatItE'haM pitaraM sambhASituM yirUzAlamaM gatvA panjcadazadinAni tEna sArddham atiSThaM|
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and I staid with him fifteen days.
19 kintu taM prabhO rbhrAtaraM yAkUbanjca vinA prEritAnAM nAnyaM kamapyapazyaM|
But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the brother of our Lord.
20 yAnyEtAni vAkyAni mayA likhyantE tAnyanRtAni na santi tad IzvarO jAnAti|
(Now in what I write to you, behold, before God, I do not lie.)
21 tataH param ahaM suriyAM kilikiyAnjca dEzau gatavAn|
Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia,
22 tadAnIM yihUdAdEzasthAnAM khrISTasya samitInAM lOkAH sAkSAt mama paricayamaprApya kEvalaM janazrutimimAM labdhavantaH,
and was not known in person to the churches of Judea, which were in Christ.
23 yO janaH pUrvvam asmAn pratyupadravamakarOt sa tadA yaM dharmmamanAzayat tamEvEdAnIM pracArayatIti|
But only they had heard that he who persecuted us before, now preacheth the faith which he formerly would have destroyed.
24 tasmAt tE mAmadhIzvaraM dhanyamavadan|
And they glorified God on my account.
