\subsection{Galatians 1}
\VS{1} Paul, apostle, not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and 
God [the] father having raised him from the dead, 
\VS{2} and all the brothers 
with me, to the assemblies\fnEkklhsia{} of Galatia, 
\VS{3} grace to you and peace from God 
our father and [our] Lord Jesus Christ, 
\VS{4} the [one] having given himself in 
behalf of our sins, in order that he deliver us from this present wicked\fnPoneros{} 
age, according to the will of our God and father, 
\VS{5} to whom [be] the glory 
to the eternities of eternities. 

\VS{6} I marvel that thus swiftly are you turned away from the [one] having 
called you by [the] grace of Christ to another good-news, 
\VS{7} which is not 
another; except [that] there are those troubling you and wishing to 
alter\footnote{or ``pervert''} the good-news of Christ. 
\VS{8} But if we or 
[an] angel from heaven good-news to you beside what we good-newsed to you, 
let\fnImperative{} him be accursed. 
\VS{9} As I have foretold you, and 
I now say again, if anyone good-news to you beside what you have received, 
let\fnImperative{} him be accursed. 
\VS{10} For do I now persuade men 
or God? Or do I seek to be pleasing men? For if I yet pleased men, I would 
not be the slave of Christ. 
\VS{11} For I make known to you, brothers, the 
good-news [which was] good-newsed by me that is not according to men. 
\VS{12} For I 
neither received it from men, neither was I taught [it], but through [the] revelation 
from Jesus Christ. 
\VS{13} For you heard my manner-of-life when [I was] in Judaism, 
that beyond measure I was persecuting the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} of God and was pillaging 
it, 
\VS{14} and I was advancing in Judaism above many of [my] peers in my race, 
being [a] far greater zealot of the traditions of my fathers. 
\VS{15} But when 
it pleased the [one] having separated me from my mother's belly and having called 
[me] through his grace 
\VS{16} to reveal his son in me, in order that I be 
good-newsing him among the nations, straightway I did not consult with flesh 
and blood, 
\VS{17} neither did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles before 
me, but I went up to Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus. 
\VS{18} Then 
after three years I went up to Jerusalem to introduce myself to 
Cephas\footnote{i.e. Peter}, and I remained with him fifteen days. 
\VS{19} But other apostles I saw not, except James the brother of the Lord. 
\VS{20} Now what I write to you, behold before God, I do not lie. 
\VS{21} Then I 
came to the region of Syria and Cilicia. 
\VS{22} But I was unknown by face to the assemblies\fnEkklhsia{} of the Jews in Christ. 
\VS{23} But they were hearing only 
that: The [one] persecuting us formerly, now good-newses the faith which he 
formerly pillaged, 
\VS{24} and they were glorifying God in me.
