Galatians 2:1-13

WPNT(i) 1 Fourteen years later I went up to Jerusalem again, with Barnabas, taking Titus along as well. 2 I went on the basis of a revelation and set before them [the main apostles] the Gospel that I proclaim among the nations/Gentiles.—Now I did this privately to those with influence, lest somehow I might run, or had run, in vain. 3 However, not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, for being a Greek. 4 This came up because of the false brothers who were smuggled in (who stole in to spy out our freedom, that we have in Christ Jesus, so as to reduce us to slavery), 5 to whom we did not yield, even for a moment, so that the truth of the Gospel might continue with you.— 6 Now from those who seemed to be important (whatever they were makes no difference to me; God shows favoritism to no man)—those with influence contributed nothing to me, 7 but on the contrary, upon seeing that I had been entrusted with the Gospel for the uncircumcised, just as was Peter for the circumcised 8 (for He who was at work with Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised was also at work with me for that to the uncircumcised), 9 and upon perceiving the grace that had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, those reputed to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, while they to the Jews. 10 They did ask us to keep remembering the poor, the very thing I also was eager to do. 11 But, when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was blameworthy. 12 Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came he began to draw back and separate himself, fearing those of the circumcision party. 13 And the rest of the Jews played the hypocrite with him as well, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.
