Galatians 1 Bishops' Bible 1568

From Textus Receptus

Gal 1:1 Paul an Apostle, not of men, neither by man: but by Iesus Christe, and by God the father, which raysed hym vp from death: Gal 1:2 And all the brethren which are with me. Unto ye Churches of Galacia: Gal 1:3 Grace [be] with you, and peace from God the father, and from our Lorde Iesus Christe: Gal 1:4 Which gaue hym selfe for our sinnes, to deliuer vs from this present euyll worlde, accordyng to the wyll of God, and our father: Gal 1:5 To whom be glory for euer and euer. Amen. Gal 1:6 I maruayle, that ye are so soone turned from him that had called you in the grace of Christe, vnto another Gospell: Gal 1:7 Which is not another [Gospel] but that there be some which trouble you, and intende to peruert the Gospel of Christ. Gal 1:8 Neuerthelesse, though we, or an Angel from heauen, preache any other Gospel vnto you, then that which we haue preached vnto you, let hym be accursed. Gal 1:9 As we sayde before, so say I nowe agayne, yf any man preache any other Gospell vnto you, then that ye haue receaued, let hym be accursed. Gal 1:10 Do I nowe perswade men, or God? Other do I seke to please men? For yf I shoulde yet please men, I were not the seruaunt of Christe. Gal 1:11 I certifie you brethren, that the Gospell which was preached of me, was not after man. Gal 1:12 For I neither receaued it of man, neither was I taught [it] but by the reuelation of Iesus Christe. Gal 1:13 For ye haue hearde of my conuersation in tyme past in the Iewes religion, howe that beyonde measure I persecuted the Churche of God, & spoyled it: Gal 1:14 And profited in the Iewes religion, aboue many of my companions in mine owne nation, beyng a very feruent maynteyner of the traditions of my fathers. Gal 1:15 But when it pleased God, which seperated me from my mothers wombe, & called [me] by his grace, Gal 1:16 To reueale his sonne by me, that I shoulde by the Gospell preache hym among the Heathen: immediatly I communed not with fleshe and blood: Gal 1:17 Neither returned to Hierusalem, to them which were Apostles before me: but went my wayes into Arabia, and came agayne vnto Damascus. Gal 1:18 Then after three yeres, I returned to Hierusale to see Peter, and abode with hym fyfteene dayes. Gal 1:19 But other of the Apostles sawe I none, saue Iames the Lordes brother. Gal 1:20 The thynges therfore which I write vnto you, beholde, before God I lie not. Gal 1:21 Afterwarde, I came into the coastes of Syria & Cilicia, Gal 1:22 and was vnknowen in face vnto the Churches of Iurie, which were in Christe. Gal 1:23 But they had hearde only, that he which persecuted vs in tyme past, nowe preacheth the fayth, which before he destroyed. Gal 1:24 And they glorified God in me.
