1 This letter comes from Paul, an apostle not appointed by any human organization or human authority. Quite the contrary: I was appointed by Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Jesus from the dead.
1 Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
2 All the brothers and sisters here with me join in sending this letter to the churches in Galatia.
2 and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
3 May the grace and peace of God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ be with you!
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Jesus gave himself for our sins to set us free from this current world of evil, following the will of our God and Father.
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—
5 To him be glory forever and ever! Amen.
5 to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
6 I'm shocked at how quickly you're abandoning the God who by the grace of Christ called you. You are turning to a different kind of good news
6 I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,
7 that isn't good news at all! Some people there are confusing you, wanting to pervert the good news of Christ.
7 but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
8 But if anyone, even we ourselves, or even an angel from heaven, should promote any other kind of good news than what we have already told you, let them be condemned!
8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
9 I repeat what we've told you before: if anyone promotes any other kind of good news than what you've already accepted, let them be condemned!
9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
10 Whose approval do you think I want—that of people, or of God? Do you think I'm trying to please people? If I wanted to please people I wouldn't be a servant of Christ!
10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.
11 Let me make it clear, my friends, regarding the good news I'm declaring—it did not come from any human being.
11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.
12 I didn't receive it from anyone, and nobody taught it to me—it was Jesus Christ who revealed it to me.
12 For I didn’t receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 You heard how I behaved as a follower of the Jewish religion—how I fanatically persecuted God's church, savagely trying to destroy it.
13 For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged it.
14 I surpassed my contemporaries in the practice of the Jewish religion because I was so fervently devoted to the traditions of my ancestors.
14 I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when God (who had set me apart from birth) called me through his grace, and was pleased
15 But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace,
16 to reveal his Son to me so that I could announce the good news to the nations, I didn't discuss this with anyone.
16 to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn’t immediately confer with flesh and blood,
17 I didn't go to Jerusalem to talk to those who preceded me as apostles; instead I left for Arabia, and then later returned to Damascus.
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
18 After three years I went to Jerusalem to visit Peter. I stayed with him for two weeks.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
19 I didn't see any other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
19 But of the other apostles I saw no one except James, the Lord’s brother.
20 (Let me assure you before God that I'm not lying about what I'm writing to you!)
20 Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I’m not lying.
21 Then I went to Syria and Cilicia.
21 Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 Even so, my face wasn't known to those in the churches of Judea.
22 I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,
23 They had only heard people say, “The man who used to persecute us is now spreading the faith he once tried to destroy!”
23 but they only heard, “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”
24 —and they praised God because of me.
24 So they glorified God in me.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
… 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.
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.
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.
