1Vnwitti Galathies, tofor whos iyen Jhesu Crist is exilid, and is crucified in you, who hath disseyued you, that ye obeyen not to treuthe?Select Galatians 3:1

2This oneli Y wilne to lerne of you, whether ye han vndurfonge the spirit of werkis of the lawe, or of heryng of bileue?Select Galatians 3:2

3So ye ben foolis, that whanne ye han bigunne in spirit, ye ben endid in fleisch.Select Galatians 3:3

4So grete thingis ye han suffrid without cause, if it be withoute cause.Select Galatians 3:4

5He that yyueth to you spirit, and worchith vertues in you, whether of werkis of the lawe, or of hering of bileue?Select Galatians 3:5

6As it is writun, Abraham bileuede to God, and it was rettid to hym to riytfulnesse.Select Galatians 3:6

7And therfor knowe ye, that these that ben of bileue, ben the sones of Abraham.Select Galatians 3:7

8And the scripture seynge afer, that God iustifieth the hethene, of bileue told tofor to Abraham, That in thee alle the hethene schulen be blessid.Select Galatians 3:8

9And therfor these that ben of bileue, schulen be blessid with feithful Abraham.Select Galatians 3:9

10For alle that ben of the werkis of the lawe, ben vndur curse; for it is writun, Ech man is cursid, that abidith not in alle thingis that ben writun in the book of the lawe, to do tho thingis.Select Galatians 3:10

11And that no man is iustified in the lawe bifor God, it is opyn, for a riytful man lyueth of bileue.Select Galatians 3:11

12But the lawe is not of bileue, but he that doith tho thingis of the lawe, schal lyue in hem.Select Galatians 3:12

13But Crist ayenbouyte us fro the curse of the lawe, and was maad acursid for vs; for it is writun, Ech man is cursid that hangith in the tre;Select Galatians 3:13

14that among the hethene the blessyng of Abraham were maad in `Crist Jhesu, that we vndurfonge the biheeste of spirit thoruy bileue.Select Galatians 3:14

15Britheren, Y seie aftir man, no man dispisith the testament of a man that is confermed, or ordeyneth aboue.Select Galatians 3:15

16The biheestis weren seid to Abraham and to his seed; he seith not, In seedis, as in many, but as in oon, And to thi seed, that is, Crist.Select Galatians 3:16

17But Y seie, this testament is confermed of God; the lawe that was maad after foure hundrid and thritti yeer, makith not the testament veyn to auoide awei the biheest.Select Galatians 3:17

18For if eritage were of the lawe, it were not now of biheeste. But God grauntide to Abraham thoruy biheest.Select Galatians 3:18

19What thanne the lawe? It was sett for trespassing, to the seed come, to whom he hadde maad his biheest. Whiche lawe was ordeyned bi aungels, in the hoond of a mediatour. But a mediatour is not of oon. But God is oon.Select Galatians 3:19

21Is thanne the lawe ayens the biheestis of God? God forbede. For if the lawe were youun, that myyte quikene, verili were riytfulnesse of lawe.Select Galatians 3:21

22But scripture hath concludid alle thingis vndir synne, that the biheeste of the feith of Jhesu Crist were yyuen to hem that bileuen.Select Galatians 3:22

23And tofor that bileue cam, thei weren kept vndur the lawe, enclosid in to that bileue that was to be schewid.Select Galatians 3:23

24And so the lawe was oure vndirsmaister in Crist, that we ben iustified of bileue.Select Galatians 3:24

25But aftir that bileue cam, we ben not now vndur the vndurmaistir.Select Galatians 3:25

26For alle ye ben the children of God thoruy the bileue of Jhesu Crist.Select Galatians 3:26

27For alle ye that ben baptisid, ben clothid with Crist.Select Galatians 3:27

28Ther is no Jewe, ne Greke, ne bond man, ne fre man, ne male, ne female; for alle ye ben oon in `Jhesu Crist.Select Galatians 3:28

29And if ye ben oon in `Jhesu Crist, thanne ye ben the seed of Abraham, and eiris bi biheest.Select Galatians 3:29
