Galatians 5
1 Christ has set us free in freedom; stand fast therefore, and be not held again in a yoke of bondage.
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I, Paul, say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if all of you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 And I witness again to every man [who is] circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law.
For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4 Ye are deprived of all profit from the Christ as separated [from him], as many as are justified by law; ye have fallen from grace.
Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; all of you are fallen from grace.
5 For we, by [the] Spirit, on the principle of faith, await the hope of righteousness.
For we through the Spirit (pneuma) wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any force, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.
For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love. (agape)
7 Ye ran well; who has stopped you that ye should not obey the truth?
All of you did run well; who did hinder you that all of you should not obey the truth?
8 The persuasibleness [is] not of him that calls you.
This persuasion comes not of him that calls you.
9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
10 I have confidence as to you in [the] Lord, that ye will have no other mind; and he that is troubling you shall bear the guilt [of it], whosoever he may be.
I have confidence in you through the Lord, that all of you will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
11 But I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? Then the scandal of the cross has been done away.
And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.
12 I would that they would even cut themselves off who throw you into confusion.
I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
13 For ye have been called to liberty, brethren; only [do] not [turn] liberty into an opportunity to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
For, brethren, all of you have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love (agape) serve one another.
14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, (logos) even in this; You shall love your neighbour as yourself.
15 but if ye bite and devour one another, see that ye are not consumed one of another.
But if all of you bite and devour one another, take heed that all of you be not consumed one of another.
16 But I say, Walk in [the] Spirit, and ye shall no way fulfil flesh's lust.
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, (pneuma) and all of you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are opposed one to the other, that ye should not do those things which ye desire;
For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, (pneuma) and the Spirit (pneuma) against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that all of you cannot do the things that all of you would.
18 but if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under law.
But if all of you be led of the Spirit, (pneuma) all of you are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strifes, jealousies, angers, contentions, disputes, schools of opinion,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, worldy jealousies, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revels, and things like these; as to which I tell you beforehand, even as I also have said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit God's kingdom.
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,
But the fruit of the Spirit (pneuma) is love, (agape) joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law.
Meekness, wilful restrain: against such there is no law.
24 But they that [are] of the Christ have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts.
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live by the Spirit, let us walk also by the Spirit.
If we live in the Spirit, (pneuma) let us also walk in the Spirit. (pneuma)
26 Let us not become vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
