Stand fast[G4739]therefore[G3767] in the liberty[G1657]wherewith[G3739]Christ[G5547] hath made[G1659]us[G2248]free[G1659], and[G2532]be[G1758]not[G3361]entangled[G1758]again[G3825] with the yoke[G2218] of bondage[G1397].
2Behold[G2396], I[G1473]Paul[G3972]say[G3004] unto you[G5213], that[G3754]if[G1437] ye be circumcised[G4059], Christ[G5547] shall profit[G5623]you[G5209]nothing[G3762].
3For[G1161] I testify[G3143]again[G3825] to every[G3956]man[G444]that[G3754]is[G2076]circumcised[G4059], that[G3754] he is[G2076] a debtor[G3781] to do[G4160] the whole[G3650]law[G3551].
4Christ[G5547] is become of no effect unto you[G575], whosoever of you[G2673] are justified[G1344]by[G1722] the law[G3551]; ye are fallen from[G1601]grace[G5485].
5For[G1063]we[G2249] through the Spirit[G4151] wait for[G553] the hope[G1680] of righteousness[G1343]by[G1537]faith[G4102].
6For[G1063]in[G1722]Jesus[G2424]Christ[G5547]neither[G3777]circumcision[G4061]availeth[G2480] any thing[G5100], nor[G3777]uncircumcision[G203]; but[G235]faith[G4102] which worketh[G1754]by[G1223]love[G26].
7
Ye did run[G5143]well[G2573]; who[G5101] did hinder[G348]you[G5209] that ye should[G3982]not[G3361]obey[G3982] the truth?[G225]
8
This persuasion[G3988] cometh not[G3756]of[G1537] him that calleth[G2564]you[G5209].
9
A little[G3398]leaven[G2219]leaveneth[G2220] the whole[G3650]lump[G5445].
10I[G1473] have confidence[G3982]in[G1519]you[G5209]through[G1722] the Lord[G2962], that[G3754] ye will be[G5426]none[G3762]otherwise[G243]minded[G5426]: but[G1161] he that[G3754]troubleth[G5015]you[G5209] shall bear[G941] his judgment[G2917], whosoever[G3748] he be[G302].
11And[G1161]I[G1473], brethren[G80], if[G1487]I[G2784]yet[G2089]preach[G2784]circumcision[G4061], why[G5101] do I[G1377]yet[G2089] suffer persecution?[G1377]then[G686]is[G2673] the offence[G4625] of the cross[G4716]ceased[G2673].
12
I would[G3785] they were[G609]even[G2532] cut off[G609] which trouble[G387]you[G5209].
13For[G1063], brethren[G80], ye[G5210] have been called[G2564]unto[G1909]liberty[G1657]; only[G3440] use not[G3361]liberty[G1657]for[G1519] an occasion[G874] to the flesh[G4561], but[G235]by[G1223]love[G26]serve[G1398] one another[G240].
14For[G1063]all[G3956] the law[G3551] is fulfilled[G4137]in[G1722]one[G1520]word[G3056], even in[G1722] this; Thou shalt love[G25]thy[G4675]neighbour[G4139]as[G5613]thyself[G1438].
15But[G1161]if[G1487] ye bite[G1143]and[G2532]devour[G2719]one[G240]another[G240], take heed[G991] that ye be[G335]not[G3361]consumed[G355]one[G240]of[G5259]another[G240].
16
This I say[G3004]then[G1161], Walk[G4043] in the Spirit[G4151], and[G2532] ye shall[G5055]not[G3364]fulfil[G5055] the lust[G1939] of the flesh[G4561].
17For[G1063] the flesh[G4561]lusteth[G1937]against[G2596] the Spirit[G4151], and[G1161] the Spirit[G4151]against[G2596] the flesh[G4561]: and[G1161]these[G5023] are contrary[G480] the one to the other[G240]: so that[G2443] ye cannot[G3363]do[G4160] the things[G5023]that[G3739] ye would[G2309].
18But[G1161]if[G1487] ye be led[G71] of the Spirit[G4151], ye are[G2075]not[G3756]under[G5259] the law[G3551].
19Now[G1161] the works[G2041] of the flesh[G4561]are[G2076]manifest[G5318], which[G3748]are[G2076] these; Adultery[G3430], fornication[G4202], uncleanness[G167], lasciviousness[G766],
21Envyings[G5355], murders[G5408], drunkenness[G3178], revellings[G2970], and[G2532]such[G5125]like[G3664]: of the which[G3739] I tell[G4302]you[G5213]before[G4302], as[G2531] I have[G4277]also[G2532] told you[G5213] in time past[G4277], that[G3754] they which[G3739]do[G4238]such[G5125]things[G5108]shall[G2816]not[G3756]inherit[G2816] the kingdom[G932] of God[G2316].
22But[G1161] the fruit[G2590] of the Spirit[G4151]is[G2076]love[G26], joy[G5479], peace[G1515], longsuffering[G3115], gentleness[G5544], goodness[G19], faith[G4102],
23Meekness[G4236], temperance[G1466]: against[G2596]such[G5108] there is[G2076]no[G3756]law[G3551].
24And[G1161] they that are[G3588] Christ's have crucified[G4717] the flesh[G4561]with[G4862] the affections[G3804]and[G2532]lusts[G1939].
25If[G1487] we live[G2198] in the Spirit[G4151], let us[G4748]also[G2532]walk[G4748] in the Spirit[G4151].
26
Let us[G1096]not[G3361]be[G1096] desirous of vain glory[G2755], provoking[G4292] one another[G240], envying[G5354] one another[G240].
