1:1 Paulus, Apostolus non ab hominibus, neque per hominem, sed per Jesum Christum, et Deum Patrem, qui suscitavit eum a mortuis :

1:1 Paul, an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead:

1:2 et qui mecum sunt omnes fratres, ecclesiis Galatiæ.

1:2 And all the brethren who are with me: to the churches of Galatia.

1:3 Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre, et Domino nostro Jesu Christo,

1:3 Grace be to you, and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

1:4 qui dedit semetipsum pro peccatis nostris, ut eriperet nos de præsenti sæculo nequam, secundum voluntatem Dei et Patris nostri,

1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present wicked world, according to the will of God and our Father:

1:5 cui est gloria in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.

1:5 To whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.

1:6 Miror quod sic tam cito transferimini ab eo qui vos vocavit in gratiam Christi in aliud Evangelium :

1:6 I wonder that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another gospel.

1:7 quod non est aliud, nisi sunt aliqui qui vos conturbant, et volunt convertere Evangelium Christi.

1:7 Which is not another: only there are some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

1:8 Sed licet nos aut angelus de cælo evangelizet vobis præterquam quod evangelizavimus vobis, anathema sit.

1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema.

1:9 Sicut prædiximus, et nunc iterum dico : si quis vobis evangelizaverit præter id quod accepistis, anathema sit.

1:9 As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.

1:10 Modo enim hominibus suadeo, an Deo ? an quæro hominibus placere ? si adhuc hominibus placerem, Christi servus non essem.

1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

1:11 Notum enim vobis facio, fratres, Evangelium, quod evangelizatum est a me, quia non est secundum hominem :

1:11 For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

1:12 neque enim ego ab homine accepi illud, neque didici, sed per revelationem Jesu Christi.

1:12 For neither did I receive it of man: nor did I learn it but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

1:13 Audistis enim conversationem meam aliquando in Judaismo : quoniam supra modum persequebar Ecclesiam Dei, et expugnabam illam,

1:13 For you 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.

1:14 et proficiebam in Judaismo supra multos coætaneos meos in genere meo, abundantius æmulator existens paternarum mearum traditionum.

1:14 And I made progress in the Jew's religion above many of my equals in my own nation, being more abundantly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

1:15 Cum autem placuit ei, qui me segregavit ex utero matris meæ, et vocavit per gratiam suam,

1:15 But when it pleased him who separated me from my mother's womb and called me by his grace,

1:16 ut revelaret Filium suum in me, ut evangelizarem illum in gentibus : continuo non acquievi carni et sanguini,

1:16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles: immediately I condescended not to flesh and blood.

1:17 neque veni Jerosolymam ad antecessores meos Apostolos : sed abii in Arabiam, et iterum reversus sum Damascum :

1:17 Neither went I to Jerusalem, to the apostles who were before me: but I went into Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus.

1:18 deinde post annos tres veni Jerosolymam videre Petrum, et mansi apud eum diebus quindecim :

1:18 Then, after three years, I went to Jerusalem to see Peter: and I tarried with him fifteen days.

1:19 alium autem Apostolorum vidi neminem, nisi Jacobum fratrem Domini.

1:19 But other of the apostles I saw none, saving James the brother of the Lord.

1:20 Quæ autem scribo vobis, ecce coram Deo, quia non mentior.

1:20 Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.

1:21 Deinde veni in partes Syriæ, et Ciliciæ.

1:21 Afterwards, I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

1:22 Eram autem ignotus facie ecclesiis Judææ, quæ erant in Christo :

1:22 And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea, which were in Christ:

1:23 tantum autem auditum habebant quoniam qui persequebatur nos aliquando, nunc evangelizat fidem, quam aliquando expugnabat :

1:23 But they had heard only: He, who persecuted us in times past doth now preach the faith which once he impugned.

1:24 et in me clarificabant Deum.

1:24 And they glorified God in me.
