2 I went up because of a revelation and set before them (though privately before those ^lwho seemed influential) the gospel that ^mI proclaim among the Gentiles, ⁿin order to make sure I was not running or had not ^orun in vain.

2 Look: I, Paul, say to you that ^xif you accept circumcision, ^yChrist will be of no advantage to you.

4 You are ^asevered from Christ, ^byou who would be justified¹ by the law; ^cyou have fallen away from grace.

5 For this reason, ⁱwhen I could bear it no longer, ⁱI sent to learn about your faith, ^jfor fear that somehow ^kthe tempter had tempted you and ^lour labor would be in vain.
