我们已经说了,现在又说,若有人传福音给你们,与你们所领受的不同,他就应当被咒诅。As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

你们听见我从前在犹太教中所行的事,怎样极力逼迫残害神的教会。For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
