< Galatians 5 >

1 For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage.
ܩܘܡܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܒܚܐܪܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܚܪܪܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܬܟܕܢܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܒܢܝܪܐ ܕܥܒܕܘܬܐ
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.
ܗܐ ܐܢܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢ ܬܬܓܙܪܘܢ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܡܗܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ
3 Yea, I testify again to every man that receiveth circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
ܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܘܒ ܠܟܠ ܒܪܢܫ ܕܡܬܓܙܪ ܕܚܝܒ ܗܘ ܕܟܠܗ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܢܥܒܕ
4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace.
ܐܬܒܛܠܬܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܡܙܕܕܩܝܬܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܢܦܠܬܘܢ
5 For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.
ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܠܤܒܪܐ ܕܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܡܩܘܝܢܢ
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.
ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܡܕܡ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܘܠܐ ܥܘܪܠܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܡܬܓܡܪܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ
7 Ye were running well; who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth?
ܫܦܝܪ ܪܗܛܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢܘ ܕܘܕܟܘܢ ܕܠܫܪܪܐ ܠܐ ܬܬܛܦܝܤܘܢ
8 This persuasion [came] not of him that calleth you.
ܦܝܤܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܗܘ ܕܩܪܟܘܢ
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
ܚܡܝܪܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܟܠܗ ܓܒܝܠܬܐ ܡܚܡܥ
10 I have confidence to you-ward in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
ܐܢܐ ܬܟܝܠ ܐܢܐ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܒܡܪܢ ܕܡܕܡ ܐܚܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܡܬܪܥܝܬܘܢ ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܕܠܚ ܠܟܘܢ ܗܘ ܢܤܝܒܪܝܘܗܝ ܠܕܝܢܐ ܡܢ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ
11 But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away.
ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܝ ܐܠܘ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܡܟܪܙ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܡܢܐ ܡܬܪܕܦ ܗܘܝܬ ܕܠܡܐ ܐܬܒܛܠ ܠܗ ܟܫܠܗ ܕܙܩܝܦܐ
12 I would that they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision.
ܐܫܬܘܦ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܡܦܤܩ ܢܦܤܩܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܕܠܚܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ
13 For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only [use] not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another.
ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܚܐܪܘܬܐ ܗܘ ܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܐܚܝ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܚܐܪܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܥܠܬ ܒܤܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܫܬܥܒܕܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ
14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
ܟܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܒܚܕܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܡܬܡܠܐ ܒܗܝ ܕܬܚܒ ܠܩܪܝܒܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܟ
15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܡܢܟܬܝܬܘܢ ܘܐܟܠܝܬܘܢ ܚܙܘ ܕܠܡܐ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܚܕ ܬܤܘܦܘܢ
16 But I say, Walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܪܘܚܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܘܪܓܬܐ ܕܒܤܪܐ ܠܐ ܡܢ ܡܬܘܡ ܬܥܒܕܘܢ
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would.
ܒܤܪܐ ܓܝܪ ܪܐܓ ܡܕܡ ܕܢܟܐ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܘܪܘܚܐ ܪܓܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܢܟܐ ܠܒܤܪܐ ܘܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܤܩܘܒܠܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܚܕ ܕܚܕ ܕܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܨܒܝܬܘܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ
18 But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܡܬܕܒܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܬܚܝܬ ܢܡܘܤܐ
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
ܝܕܝܥܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܕܒܤܪܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܙܢܝܘܬܐ ܛܢܦܘܬܐ ܨܚܢܘܬܐ
20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties,
ܦܘܠܚܢܐ ܕܦܬܟܪܐ ܚܪܫܘܬܐ ܒܥܠܕܒܒܘܬܐ ܚܪܝܢܐ ܛܢܢܐ ܚܡܬܐ ܥܨܝܢܐ ܦܠܓܘܬܐ ܤܕܩܐ
21 envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
ܚܤܡܐ ܩܛܠܐ ܪܘܝܘܬܐ ܙܡܪܐ ܘܟܠ ܕܠܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܝܢ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܤܥܪܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܦ ܗܫܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܝܪܬܝܢ
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
ܦܐܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܚܘܒܐ ܚܕܘܬܐ ܫܠܡܐ ܡܓܪܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܒܤܝܡܘܬܐ ܛܒܘܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ
23 meekness, self-control; against such there is no law.
ܡܟܝܟܘܬܐ ܡܤܝܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܠܐ ܤܝܡ
24 And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof.
ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܤܪܗܘܢ ܙܩܦܘ ܥܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܟܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܪܓܝܓܬܗ
25 If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk.
ܢܚܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܘܠܪܘܚܐ ܢܫܠܡ
26 Let us not become vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
ܘܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܤܪܝܩܝ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܡܩܠܝܢ ܚܕ ܥܠ ܚܕ ܘܚܤܡܝܢ ܚܕ ܒܚܕ
