1In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free--stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude;Select Galatians 5:1
2lo, I Paul do say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing;Select Galatians 5:2
3and I testify again to every man circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law;Select Galatians 5:3
4ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;Select Galatians 5:4
5for we by the Spirit, by faith, a hope of righteousness do wait for,Select Galatians 5:5
6for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith through love working.Select Galatians 5:6
7Ye were running well; who did hinder you--not to obey the truth?Select Galatians 5:7
8the obedience is not of him who is calling you!Select Galatians 5:8
9a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven;Select Galatians 5:9
10I have confidence in regard to you in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded; and he who is troubling you shall bear the judgment, whoever he may be.Select Galatians 5:10
11And I, brethren, if uncircumcision I yet preach, why yet am I persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away;Select Galatians 5:11
12O that even they would cut themselves off who are unsettling you!Select Galatians 5:12
13For ye--to freedom ye were called, brethren, only not the freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through the love serve ye one another,Select Galatians 5:13
14for all the law in one word is fulfilled--in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;'Select Galatians 5:14
15and if one another ye do bite and devour, see--that ye may not by one another be consumed.Select Galatians 5:15
16And I say: In the Spirit walk ye, and the desire of the flesh ye may not complete;Select Galatians 5:16
17for the flesh doth desire contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit contrary to the flesh, and these are opposed one to another, that the things that ye may will--these ye may not do;Select Galatians 5:17
18and if by the Spirit ye are led, ye are not under law.Select Galatians 5:18
19And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness,Select Galatians 5:19
20idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strifes, emulations, wraths, rivalries, dissensions, sects,Select Galatians 5:20
21envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revellings, and such like, of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that those doing such things the reign of God shall not inherit.Select Galatians 5:21
22And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,Select Galatians 5:22
23meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;Select Galatians 5:23
24and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires;Select Galatians 5:24
25if we may live in the Spirit, in the Spirit also we may walk;Select Galatians 5:25
26let us not become vain-glorious--one another provoking, one another envying!Select Galatians 5:26
