n which you received from us. [3:7]For you
know yourselves how you ought to follow us, for we walked not
disorderly among you, [3:8]neither did we eat bread of any one for
nought, but worked with labor and fatigue, night and day, not to be
burdensome to any of you; [3:9]not that we have not a right [to a
support], but that we may make ourselves an example for you to follow
us. [3:10]For when we were with you, we gave you this charge, that if
any one will not work, neither let him eat. [3:11]For we hear that some
go about among you in a disorderly manner, not working, but being above
work; [3:12]we charge and exhort such, by our Lord Jesus Christ, to
work quietly, and eat their own bread. [3:13]But, brothers, be not
weary of well doing. [3:14]But if any one obeys not our word by this
epistle, mark that one, and have no association with him, that he may
be ashamed; [3:15]and account him not as an enemy, but admonish him as
a brother. [3:16]And may the Lord of peace give you peace always in
every way. The Lord be with you all.

7 [3:17]The salutation by my hand, Paul's, which is [the] sign in every
epistle; so I write. [3:18]The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
you all.

EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS.

CHAPTER I.

PAUL'S ACCOUNT OF HIMSELF AND OF THE GOSPEL.

1 [1:1]PAUL an apostle, not from men nor by man but by Jesus Christ and
God the Father who raised him from the dead, [1:2]and all the brothers
with me, to the churches of Galatia. [1:3]Grace be to you and peace
from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, [1:4]who gave himself
for our sins, that he might deliver us from the present evil life
according to the will of God even our Father, [1:5] to whom be the
glory forever and ever; amen.

2 [1:6]I wonder that you have so quickly turned away from him that
called you in the grace of Christ to another gospel, [1:7]which is not
another; but there are some who disturb you and wish to subvert the
gospel of Christ. [1:8]But if we or an angel from heaven preach you
another gospel contrary to what we have preached you let him be
accursed. [1:9]As we said before I now also say again, If any one
preaches you a gospel contrary to what you have received let him be
accursed. [1:10]For do I now obey man, or God? or do I seek to please
men? For if I yet pleased men, I could not have been a servant of
Christ.

3 [1:11]For I certify you, brothers, of the gospel preached by me,
