| 2:1 | Then fourteene yeeres after, I went vp againe to Ierusalem with Barnabas, and tooke Titus with me also. |
| 2:2 | And I went vp by reuelation, and communicated vnto them that Gospel, which I preach among the Gentiles, but priuately to them which were of reputation, lest by any meanes I should runne, or had runne in vaine. |
| 2:3 | But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greeke, was compelled to be circumcised: |
| 2:4 | And that because of false brethren vnawares brought in, who came in priuily to spie out our libertie, which wee haue in Christ Iesus, that they might bring vs into bondage. |
| 2:5 | To whom wee gaue place by subiection, no not for an houre, that the trueth of the Gospel might continue with you. |
| 2:6 | But of these, who seemed to bee somewhat, (whatsoeuer they were, it maketh no matter to mee, God accepteth no mans person,) for they who seemed to be somewhat, in conference added nothing to me. |
| 2:7 | But contrariwise, when they saw that the Gospel of the vncircumcision was committed vnto me, as the Gospel of the circumcision was vnto Peter: |
| 2:8 | (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the Apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mightie in me towards the Gentiles.) |
| 2:9 | And when Iames, Cephas and Iohn, who seemed to bee pillars, perceiued the grace that was giuen vnto me, they gaue to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that wee should goe vnto the heathen, and they vnto the circumcision. |
| 2:10 | Onely they would that wee should remember the poore, the same which I also was forward to doe. |
| 2:11 | But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. |
| 2:12 | For before that certaine came from Iames, he did eate with the Gentiles: but when they were come, hee withdrew, and separated himselfe, fearing them which were of the Circumcisio. |
| 2:13 | And the other Iewes dissembled likewise with him, insomuch that Barnabas also was caried away with their dissimulation. |
| 2:14 | But when I saw that they walked not vprightly according to the truth of the Gospel, I said vnto Peter before them al, If thou, being a Iew, liuest after the maner of Gentiles, and not as doe the Iewes, why compellest thou the Gentiles to liue as do the Iewes? |
| 2:15 | We who are Iewes by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, |
| 2:16 | Knowing that a man is not iustified by the works of the Law, but by the faith of Iesus Christ, euen we haue beleeued in Iesus Christ, that we might be iustified by the faith of Christ, and not by the workes of the Law: for by the workes of the Law shall no flesh be iustified. |
| 2:17 | But if while we seeke to be iustified by Christ, wee our selues also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sinne? God forbid. |
| 2:18 | For if I build againe the things which I destroyed, I make my selfe a transgressour. |
| 2:19 | For I through ye Law, am dead to the Law, that I might liue vnto God. |
| 2:20 | I am crucified with Christ. Neuertheles, I liue, yet not I, but Christ liueth in me, and the life which I now liue in the flesh, I liue by the faith of the sonne of God, who loued mee, and gaue himselfe for me. |
| 2:21 | I doe not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousnes come by the Lawe, then Christ is dead in vaine. |
| 2:1 | Then after fourtene yeares, I wente vp agayne to Ierusale with Barnabas, and toke Titus with me also. |
| 2:2 | But I wente vp by reuelacion, and commened with the of ye Gospell, which I preach amonge the Heythe: but specially with the which were in reputacion, lest I shulde runne or had runne in vayne. |
| 2:3 | But Titus which was also with me, was not compelled to be circucysed, though he was a Greke: |
| 2:4 | and that because of certayne incommers beynge false brethre, which came in amoge other, to spye out oure libertye, which we haue in Christ Iesus, that they mighte brynge vs in to bondage: |
| 2:5 | To whom we gaue no rowme, no not for the space of an houre, as concernynge to be broughte in to subieccion: yt the trueth of the Gospell mighte comtynue with you. |
| 2:6 | As for the that semed to be greate, what they were in tyme passed, it maketh no matter to me. For God loketh not on the outwarde appearaunce of men. Neuertheles they which semed greate, taught me nothinge: |
| 2:7 | but contrary wyse, whan they sawe that the Gospell ouer the vncircumcision was comytted vnto me, as ye Gospell ouer ye circucision was commytted vnto Peter. |
| 2:8 | (For he yt was mightie with Peter to the Apostleshippe ouer the circumcision, the same was mightie with me also amoge the Heythen) |
| 2:9 | they perceaued the grace that was geuen vnto me. Iames and Cephas and Ihon, which semed to be pilers, gaue me and Barnabas ye righte handes, and agreed with vs, that we shulde preach amonge the Heythe, and they amonge the Iewes: |
| 2:10 | onely that we shulde remebre the poore, which thinge also I was diligent to do. |
| 2:11 | But wha Peter was come to Antioche, I withstode him in ye face: for he was worthy to be blamed. |
| 2:12 | For afore there came certayne from Iames, he ate with the Heythe. But wha they were come, he withdrue and separated himselfe, fearinge the which were of the circumcision. |
| 2:13 | And the other Iewes dyssembled with him likewyse, in so moch yt Barnabas was brought in to their symulacion also. |
| 2:14 | But whan I sawe that they walked not right after ye trueth of the Gospell, I sayde vnto Peter openly before all: Yf thou beynge a Iewe, lyuest after the maner of the Gentyles, and not as do the Iewes, why causest thou the Gentyles then to lyue as do th |
| 2:15 | Though we be Iewes by nature, and not synners of the Gentyles, |
| 2:16 | yet (in so moch as we knowe, that a man is not made righteous by the dedes off the lawe, but by the faith on Iesus Christ) we haue beleued also on Iesus Christ, yt we might be made righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by the dedes of the lawe, bec |
| 2:17 | Yf we then which seke to be made righteous by christ, shulde be yet founde synners or selues, is not Christ then the mynister of synne? God forbyd. |
| 2:18 | For yf I buylde agayne yt which I haue destroyed, then make I my selfe a trespacer. |
| 2:19 | But I thorow the lawe am deed vnto the lawe, that I might lyue vnto God. |
| 2:20 | I am crucified with Christ, yet do I lyue: neuerthelesse now not I, but Christ lyueth in me. For ye life which I now lyue in ye flesshe, I lyue in the faith of ye sonne of God which loued me, and gaue himselfe for me. |
| 2:21 | I cast not awaye the grace of God. For yf righteousnes come by the lawe, then dyed Christ in vayne. |
| 2:1 | And sith fourtene yeer aftir, eftsones Y wente vp to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took with me Tite. |
| 2:2 | Y wente vp bi reuelacioun, and spak with hem the euangelie, which Y preche among the hethene; and bi hem silf to these that semeden to be sumwhat, lest Y runne, or hadde runne in veyne. |
| 2:3 | And nother Tite, that hadde be with me, while he was hethene, was compellid to be circumsidid; |
| 2:4 | but for false britheren that weren brouyt ynne, whiche hadden entrid to aspie oure fredom, which we han in Jhesu Crist, to bring vs in to seruage. |
| 2:5 | But we yyue no place to subieccioun, that the treuthe of the gospel schulde dwelle with you. |
| 2:6 | But of these that semeden to be sumwhat; whiche thei weren sum tyme, it perteyneth not to me, for God takith not the persoone of man; for thei that semeden to be sumwhat, yauen me no thing. |
| 2:7 | But ayenward, whanne thei hadden seyn, that the euangelie of prepucie was youun to me, as the euangelie of circumcisioun was youun to Petre; |
| 2:8 | for he that wrouyte to Petre in apostlehed of circumcisioun, wrouyte also to me among the hethene; |
| 2:9 | and whanne thei hadden knowe the grace of God, that was youun to me, James, and Petre, and Joon, whiche weren seyn to be the pileris, thei yauen riythond of felowschip to me and to Barnabas, that we among the hethene, and thei in to circumcisioun; |
| 2:10 | oneli that we hadde mynde of pore men `of Crist, the which thing Y was ful bisi to doon. |
| 2:11 | But whanne Petre was comun to Antioche, Y ayenstood hym in the face, for he was worthi to be vndirnommen. |
| 2:12 | For bifor that ther camen summen fro James, he eete with the hethene men; but whanne thei weren comun, he withdrowy, and departide hym, dredinge hem that weren of circumcisioun. |
| 2:13 | And the othere Jewis assentiden to his feynyng, so that Barnabas was drawun of hem in to that feynyng. |
| 2:14 | But whanne Y sawy, that thei walkiden not riytli to the treuthe of the gospel, Y seide to Petre bifor alle men, If thou, that art a Jew, lyuest hethenlich, and not Jewelich, hou constreynest thou hethene men to bicome Jewis? |
| 2:15 | We Jewis of kynde, and not synful men of the hethene, |
| 2:16 | knowen that a man is not iustified of the werkis of lawe, but bi the feith of Jhesu Crist; and we bileuen in Jhesu Crist, that we ben iustified of the feith of Crist, and not of the werkis of lawe. Wherfor of the werkis of lawe ech fleisch schal not be iustified. |
| 2:17 | And if we sechen to be iustified in Crist, we oure silf ben foundun synful men, whether Crist be mynystre of synne? |
| 2:18 | God forbede. And if Y bylde ayen thingis that Y haue distruyed, Y make my silf a trespassour. |
| 2:19 | For bi the lawe Y am deed to the lawe, and Y am fitchid to the crosse, that Y lyue to God with Crist. |
| 2:20 | And now lyue not Y, but Crist lyueth in me. But that Y lyue now in fleisch, Y lyue in the feith of Goddis sone, that louede me, and yaf hym silf for me. |
| 2:21 | Y caste not awey the grace of God; for if riytwisnesse be thoruy lawe, thanne Crist diede with out cause. |
