Galatians 2:9

---

← Galatians 2:8	Galatians 2:9 (KJV)	Galatians 2:10 →
(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)	And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.	Only [they would] that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
