< Galatians 3 >
1 O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified?
ω ανοητοι γαλαται τις υμας εβασκανεν οις κατ οφθαλμους ιησους χριστος προεγραφη εσταυρωμενος
2 This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
τουτο μονον θελω μαθειν αφ υμων εξ εργων νομου το πνευμα ελαβετε η εξ ακοης πιστεως
3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh?
ουτως ανοητοι εστε εναρξαμενοι πνευματι νυν σαρκι επιτελεισθε
4 Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.
τοσαυτα επαθετε εικη ει γε και εικη
5 He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
ο ουν επιχορηγων υμιν το πνευμα και ενεργων δυναμεις εν υμιν εξ εργων νομου η εξ ακοης πιστεως
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.
καθως αβρααμ επιστευσεν τω θεω και ελογισθη αυτω εις δικαιοσυνην
7 Know therefore that they which be of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.
γινωσκετε αρα οτι οι εκ πιστεως ουτοι υιοι εισιν αβρααμ
8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying], In thee shall all the nations be blessed.
προιδουσα δε η γραφη οτι εκ πιστεως δικαιοι τα εθνη ο θεος προευηγγελισατο τω αβρααμ οτι ενευλογηθησονται εν σοι παντα τα εθνη
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.
ωστε οι εκ πιστεως ευλογουνται συν τω πιστω αβρααμ
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one which continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.
οσοι γαρ εξ εργων νομου εισιν υπο καταραν εισιν γεγραπται γαρ οτι επικαταρατος πας ος ουκ εμμενει πασιν τοις γεγραμμενοις εν τω βιβλιω του νομου του ποιησαι αυτα
11 Now that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;
οτι δε εν νομω ουδεις δικαιουται παρα τω θεω δηλον οτι ο δικαιος εκ πιστεως ζησεται
12 and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.
ο δε νομος ουκ εστιν εκ πιστεως αλλ ο ποιησας αυτα ζησεται εν αυτοις
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
χριστος ημας εξηγορασεν εκ της καταρας του νομου γενομενος υπερ ημων καταρα οτι γεγραπται επικαταρατος πας ο κρεμαμενος επι ξυλου
14 that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
ινα εις τα εθνη η ευλογια του αβρααμ γενηται εν {VAR1: ιησου χριστω } {VAR2: χριστω ιησου } ινα την επαγγελιαν του πνευματος λαβωμεν δια της πιστεως
15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.
αδελφοι κατα ανθρωπον λεγω ομως ανθρωπου κεκυρωμενην διαθηκην ουδεις αθετει η επιδιατασσεται
16 Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
τω δε αβρααμ ερρεθησαν αι επαγγελιαι και τω σπερματι αυτου ου λεγει και τοις σπερμασιν ως επι πολλων αλλ ως εφ ενος και τω σπερματι σου ος εστιν χριστος
17 Now this I say; A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.
τουτο δε λεγω διαθηκην προκεκυρωμενην υπο του θεου ο μετα τετρακοσια και τριακοντα ετη γεγονως νομος ουκ ακυροι εις το καταργησαι την επαγγελιαν
18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.
ει γαρ εκ νομου η κληρονομια ουκετι εξ επαγγελιας τω δε αβρααμ δι επαγγελιας κεχαρισται ο θεος
19 What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; [and it was] ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.
τι ουν ο νομος των παραβασεων χαριν προσετεθη αχρις {VAR1: αν } {VAR2: ου } ελθη το σπερμα ω επηγγελται διαταγεις δι αγγελων εν χειρι μεσιτου
20 Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one; but God is one.
ο δε μεσιτης ενος ουκ εστιν ο δε θεος εις εστιν
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.
ο ουν νομος κατα των επαγγελιων [του θεου] μη γενοιτο ει γαρ εδοθη νομος ο δυναμενος ζωοποιησαι οντως {VAR1: εν νομω } {VAR2: εκ νομου } αν ην η δικαιοσυνη
22 Howbeit the scripture hath shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
αλλα συνεκλεισεν η γραφη τα παντα υπο αμαρτιαν ινα η επαγγελια εκ πιστεως ιησου χριστου δοθη τοις πιστευουσιν
23 But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
προ του δε ελθειν την πιστιν υπο νομον εφρουρουμεθα συγκλειομενοι εις την μελλουσαν πιστιν αποκαλυφθηναι
24 So that the law hath been our tutor [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
ωστε ο νομος παιδαγωγος ημων γεγονεν εις χριστον ινα εκ πιστεως δικαιωθωμεν
25 But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor.
ελθουσης δε της πιστεως ουκετι υπο παιδαγωγον εσμεν
26 For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus.
παντες γαρ υιοι θεου εστε δια της πιστεως εν χριστω ιησου
27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ did put on Christ.
οσοι γαρ εις χριστον εβαπτισθητε χριστον ενεδυσασθε
28 There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female: for ye all are one [man] in Christ Jesus.
ουκ ενι ιουδαιος ουδε ελλην ουκ ενι δουλος ουδε ελευθερος ουκ ενι αρσεν και θηλυ παντες γαρ υμεις εις εστε εν χριστω ιησου
29 And if ye are Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, heirs according to promise.
ει δε υμεις χριστου αρα του αβρααμ σπερμα εστε κατ επαγγελιαν κληρονομοι
