This scripture contains a conversation between Pandava prince Arjuna and his guide Lord Krishna on a variety of theological and philosophical issues.The material used is a transulation by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Please note that certain verses has been transulated into a single combined english verse e.g verses 16,17 and 18 are transulated into a single english verse.Check this site to make clarity on that, "http://vedabase.net/bg/1/en". Hence displaying verses 1-16 is same as displaying verses 1-17 or 1-18.
