ULB Unlocked Literal Bible
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 Paul, an apostle—not an apostle from men nor by human agency, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
1 PABLO, apóstol, (no de los hombres, ni por hombre, mas por Jesucristo y por Dios el Padre, que lo resucitó de los muertos),
2 and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia:
2 Y todos los hermanos que están conmigo, á las iglesias de Galacia:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
3 Gracia [sea] á vosotros, y paz de Dios el Padre, y de nuestro Señor Jesucristo,
4 who gave himself for our sins so that he might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,
4 El cual se dió á sí mismo por nuestros pecados para librarnos de este presente siglo malo, conforme á la voluntad de Dios y Padre nuestro;
5 to him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
5 Al cual [sea] la gloria por siglos de siglos. Amén.
6 I am amazed that you are turning away so quickly from him who called you by the grace of Christ. I am amazed that you are turning to a different gospel.
6 Estoy maravillado de que tan pronto os hayáis traspasado del que os llamó á la gracia de Cristo, á otro evangelio:
7 This is not to say that there is another gospel, but there are some men who cause you trouble and want to change the gospel of Christ.
7 No que hay otro, sino que hay algunos que os inquietan, y quieren pervertir el evangelio de Cristo.
8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel other than the one we proclaimed to you, let him be cursed.
8 Mas aun si nosotros ó un ángel del cielo os anunciare otro evangelio del que os hemos anunciado, sea anatema.
9 As we have said before, so now I say again, “If someone proclaims to you a gospel other than the one you received, let him be cursed.”
9 Como antes hemos dicho, también ahora decimos otra vez: Si alguno os anunciare otro evangelio del que habéis recibido, sea anatema.
10 For am I now seeking the approval of men or God? Am I seeking to please men? If I am still trying to please men, I am not a servant of Christ.
10 Porque, ¿persuado yo ahora á hombres ó á Dios? ¿ó busco de agradar á hombres? Cierto, que si todavía agradara á los hombres, no sería siervo de Cristo.
11 For I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I proclaimed is not man's gospel.
11 Mas os hago saber, hermanos, que el evangelio que ha sido anunciado por mí, no es según hombre;
12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it. Instead, it was by revelation of Jesus Christ to me.
12 Pues ni yo lo recibí, ni lo aprendí de hombre, sino por revelación de Jesucristo.
13 You have heard about my former life in Judaism, how I was persecuting the church of God beyond measure and that I was trying to destroy it.
13 Porque ya habéis oído acerca de mi conducta otro tiempo en el Judaismo, que perseguía sobremanera la iglesia de Dios, y la destruía;
14 I advanced in Judaism beyond many of those who were my own age, from out of my own people. That is how extremely zealous I was for the traditions of my fathers.
14 Y aprovechaba en el Judaismo sobre muchos de mis iguales en mi nación, siendo muy más celador [que todos] de las tradiciones de mis padres.
15 But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb, and who called me through his grace,
15 Mas cuando plugo á Dios, que me apartó desde el vientre de mi madre, y me llamó por su gracia,
16 was pleased to reveal his Son in me, so that I would proclaim him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood.
16 Revelar á su Hijo en mí, para que le predicase entre los Gentiles, luego no conferí con carne y sangre;
17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to those who had become apostles before me. Instead, I went to Arabia and then returned to Damascus.
17 Ni fuí á Jerusalem á los que eran apóstoles antes que yo; sino que me fuí á la Arabia, y volví de nuevo á Damasco.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to get to know Cephas and I stayed with him fifteen days.
18 Después, pasados tres años, fuí á Jerusalem á ver á Pedro, y estuve con él quince días.
19 But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
19 Mas á ningún otro de los apóstoles vi, sino á Jacobo el hermano del Señor.
20 In what I write to you, I assure you before God, that I am not lying.
20 Y en esto que os escribo, he aquí, delante de Dios, no miento.
21 Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
21 Después fuí á las partes de Siria y de Cilicia;
22 I was still not personally known to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
22 Y no era conocido de vista á las iglesias de Judea, que eran en Cristo;
23 They only heard it being said, “The man who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the faith he once tried to destroy.”
23 Solamente habían oído decir: Aquel que en otro tiempo nos perseguía, ahora anuncia la fe que en otro tiempo destruía.
24 So they glorified God because of me.
24 Y glorificaban á Dios en mí.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 1:1 Polycarp of Smyrna, Epistle to the Philippians (Chapters VIII–XIV)

    … and purity; and may He bestow on you a lot and portion among His saints, and on us with you, and on all that are under heaven, who shall believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, and in His Father, who "raised Him from the dead." Pray for all the saints.

  2. Quotes verse 1:1 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book III, Chapter XIII)

    Just, then, as "Paul [was] an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father," [so with the rest;] the Son indeed leading them to the Father, but the Father revealing to them the Son.

  3. Quotes verse 1:10 Augustine of Hippo, Our Lord's Sermon on the Mount (Book I, Chapters VII–IX)

    Against such parties it is said, "If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ;" and, by the prophet, "They who please men are put to shame, because God hath despised them;" and again, "God hath broken the bones of those who please men;" and again the apostle, "Let us not be desirous of vainglory;" and …

    … and darting fire; which thing he himself makes a proof of the power of Him that called him, saying to the Galatians, "Ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God." And the fishermen too He called when they were in the midst of their business.
