| 1. | For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. |
| 2. | Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. |
| 3. | I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law. |
| 4. | You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. |
| 5. | For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness. |
| 6. | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love. |
| 7. | You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth? |
| 8. | This persuasion is not from him who calls you. |
| 9. | A little leaven leavens the whole lump. |
| 10. | I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. |
| 11. | But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed. |
| 12. | I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves! |
| 13. | For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. |
| 14. | For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." |
| 15. | But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another. |
| 16. | But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. |
| 17. | For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. |
| 18. | But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. |
| 19. | Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, |
| 20. | idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, |
| 21. | envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. |
| 22. | But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, |
| 23. | gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. |
| 24. | And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. |
| 25. | If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. |
| 26. | Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another. |
