But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in the presence of all,“ If you, being a Jew, live like the Gentiles and not like the Jews, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?

但我一看见他们行的不正，与福音的真理不合，就在众人面前对矶法说：“你既是犹太人，若随外邦人行事，不随犹太人行事，怎么还勉强外邦人随犹太人呢？”

但我一看见他们做得不对，与福音的真理不合，就在众人面前对矶法说：“你既是犹太人，却按照外邦人的样子，不按照犹太人的样子生活，怎么能勉强外邦人按照犹太人的样子生活呢？”

但我一看见他们做得不对，与福音的真理不合，就在众人面前对矶法说：“你既是犹太人，却按照外邦人的样子，不按照犹太人的样子生活，怎么能勉强外邦人按照犹太人的样子生活呢？”

我看见他们不照福音的真理行，就当众对彼得说：“你身为犹太人，如果行事为人像外族人，不像犹太人，又怎能强迫外族人按犹太人的规矩生活呢？”

但我一见他们所行的不合福音的真理，就当众对矶法说：“你是犹太人，生活既然像外族人而不像犹太人，怎么还勉强外族人跟随犹太人的规矩呢？”

但我一看见他们的行为不符合福音的真理，就在大家面前对矶法说：“你身为犹太人，如果像外邦人而不像犹太人那样生活，怎么还要强求外邦人像犹太人一样呢？”

但我一看見他們行的不正，與福音的真理不合，就在眾人面前對磯法說：「你既是猶太人，若隨外邦人行事，不隨猶太人行事，怎麼還勉強外邦人隨猶太人呢？」

但我一看見他們做得不對，與福音的真理不合，就在眾人面前對磯法說：「你既是猶太人，卻按照外邦人的樣子，不按照猶太人的樣子生活，怎麼能勉強外邦人按照猶太人的樣子生活呢？」

但我一看見他們做得不對，與福音的真理不合，就在眾人面前對磯法說：「你既是猶太人，卻按照外邦人的樣子，不按照猶太人的樣子生活，怎麼能勉強外邦人按照猶太人的樣子生活呢？」

我看見他們不照福音的真理行，就當眾對彼得說：「你身為猶太人，如果行事為人像外族人，不像猶太人，又怎能強迫外族人按猶太人的規矩生活呢？」

但我一見他們所行的不合福音的真理，就當眾對磯法說：“你是猶太人，生活既然像外族人而不像猶太人，怎麼還勉強外族人跟隨猶太人的規矩呢？”

我一見他們不依着福音的真理按正直行，就在眾人面前對磯法說：『你既是猶太人，尚且按着外國人的樣子、而不按着猶太人的樣子生活，怎麼倒勉強外國人學猶太人的樣子呢？』

但我一看見他們的行為不符合福音的真理，就在大家面前對磯法說：「你身為猶太人，如果像外邦人而不像猶太人那樣生活，怎麼還要強求外邦人像猶太人一樣呢？」

我見其行不端、不依福音之真、遂於眾前語之曰、爾猶太人也、所行既如異邦人、非如猶太人、胡為強異邦人如猶太人乎、

我見其行不正、不遵福音真理、於眾前語彼得云、爾猶太人也、若從異邦、不從猶太人、則又何使異邦人從猶太人乎、

我見其行不正、不遵福音之真、乃於眾前謂磯法曰、爾猶太人也、既行如異邦人、非如猶太人、何又強異邦人、行如猶太人乎、

予見若輩之行、不遵福音正道、乃當眾而謂基法曰：『夫汝雖猶太人、起居飲食、猶且從眾、而不復拘泥於猶太俗矣。則又安得強外邦人從猶太俗乎？

When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all,“ You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew. How is it, then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs?

I saw what they were doing. It was not in line with the truth of the good news. So I spoke to Peter in front of them all.“ You are a Jew,” I said.“ But you live like one who is not. So why do you force Gentiles to follow Jewish ways?”

But when I saw that their conduct was not in step with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all,“ If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?”

When I saw that they were not following the truth of the gospel message, I said to Peter in front of all the others,“ Since you, a Jew by birth, have discarded the Jewish laws and are living like a Gentile, why are you now trying to make these Gentiles follow the Jewish traditions?

But when I saw that they were deviating from the truth of the gospel, I told Cephas in front of everyone,“ If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel Gentiles to live like Jews?”

But when I saw that they were not straight forward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all,“ If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jews?

But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Cephas before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as do the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, how compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

But when I saw that they were deviating from the truth of the gospel, I told Cephas in front of everyone,“ If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel Gentiles to live like Jews?”

But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before[ them] all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

But when I saw that they were not behaving consistently with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all,“ If you, although you are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you try to force the Gentiles to live like Jews?”

But when I saw that they didn’t walk uprightly according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Peter before them all,“ If you, being a Jew, live as the Gentiles do, and not as the Jews do, why do you compel the Gentiles to live as the Jews do?

But we did not yield in subjection to them, even for an hour, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you.

And he said to them,“ You yourselves know that it is forbidden for a Jewish man to associate with or visit a foreigner; and yet God has shown me that I am not to call any person unholy or unclean.

Since this is the case, why are you putting God to the test by placing upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our forefathers nor we have been able to bear?But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are.”

Those who continue in sin, rebuke in the presence of all, so that the rest also will be fearful of sinning.

He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,

All who want to make a good showing in the flesh try to compel you to be circumcised, simply so that they will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord gives grace and glory; He withholds no good thing from those who walk with integrity.

For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these essentials:that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from acts of sexual immorality; if you keep yourselves free from such things, you will do well. Farewell.”

Since we have heard that some of our number to whom we gave no instruction have confused you by their teaching, upsetting your souls,

One who walks with integrity, practices righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart.

But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.For prior to the coming of some men from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to withdraw and separate himself, fearing those from the circumcision.The rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

May the righteous strike me with mercy and discipline me; It is oil for the head; My head shall not refuse it, For my prayer is still against their evil deeds.

saying,“ You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them.”But Peter began and explained at length to them in an orderly sequence, saying,“ I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came to where I was,and I stared at it and was thinking about it, and I saw the four footed animals of the earth, the wild animals, the crawling creatures, and the birds of the sky.I also heard a voice saying to me,‘ Get up, Peter; kill and eat.’But I said,‘ By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’But a voice from heaven answered a second time,‘ What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.’This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into the sky.And behold, at that moment three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea came up to the house where we were staying.And the Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.And he reported to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying,‘ Send some men to Joppa and have Simon, who is also called Peter, brought here;and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them just as He did upon us at the beginning.And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say,‘ John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’Therefore, if God gave them the same gift as He also gave to us after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God’s way?”When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying,“ Well then, God has also granted to the Gentiles the repentance that leads to life.”

One who walks in integrity walks securely, But one who perverts his ways will be found out.

and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb which is impaired may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.

‘ You shall not hate your fellow countryman in your heart; you may certainly rebuke your neighbor, but you are not to incur sin because of him.

and recognizing the grace that had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we might go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.

But on the contrary, seeing that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised

Do you indeed speak righteousness, you gods? Do you judge fairly, you sons of mankind?

I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but to the one who thinks something is unclean, to that person it is unclean.

who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth.For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude;for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer.

Therefore, it is my judgment that we do not cause trouble for those from the Gentiles who are turning to God,but that we write to them that they abstain from things contaminated by idols, from acts of sexual immorality, from what has been strangled, and from blood.For from ancient generations Moses has those who preach him in every city, since he is read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”

since they relate only to food, drink, and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.

Better is open rebuke Than love that is concealed.Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.

But not even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.
