First Reading Galatians 2:1-2, 7-14
1Next, after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem, taking with me Barnabas and Titus.
2And I went up according to revelation, and I debated with them about the Gospel that I am preaching among the Gentiles, but away from those who were pretending to be something, lest perhaps I might run, or have run, in vain.

7But it was to the contrary, since they had seen that the Gospel to the uncircumcised was entrusted to me, just as the Gospel to the circumcised was entrusted to Peter.
8For he who was working the Apostleship to the circumcised in Peter, was also working in me among the Gentiles.
9And so, when they had acknowledged the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed like pillars, gave to me and to Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we would go to the Gentiles, while they went to the circumcised,
10asking only that we should be mindful of the poor, which was the very thing that I also was solicitous to do.
11But when Cephas had arrived at Antioch, I stood against him to his face, because he was blameworthy.
12For before certain ones arrived from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they had arrived, he drew apart and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
13And the other Jews consented to his pretense, so that even Barnabas was led by them into that falseness.
14But when I had seen that they were not walking correctly, by the truth of the Gospel, I said to Cephas in front of everyone: “If you, while you are a Jew, are living like the Gentiles and not the Jews, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to keep the customs of the Jews?”
