Galatians 5

5:1 In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free--stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude; 5:2 lo, I Paul do say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing; 5:3 and I testify again to every man circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law; 5:4 ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away; 5:5 for we by the Spirit, by faith, a hope of righteousness do wait for, 5:6 for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith through love working. 5:7 Ye were running well; who did hinder you--not to obey the truth 5:8 the obedience [is] not of him who is calling you! 5:9 a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven; 5:10 I have confidence in regard to you in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded; and he who is troubling you shall bear the judgment, whoever he may be. 5:11 And I, brethren, if uncircumcision I yet preach, why yet am I persecuted then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away; 5:12 O that even they would cut themselves off who are unsettling you!  5:13 For ye--to freedom ye were called, brethren, only not the freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through the love serve ye one another, 5:14 for all the law in one word is fulfilled--in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;' 5:15 and if one another ye do bite and devour, see--that ye may not by one another be consumed. 5:16 And I say: In the Spirit walk ye, and the desire of the flesh ye may not complete; 5:17 for the flesh doth desire contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit contrary to the flesh, and these are opposed one to another, that the things that ye may will--these ye may not do; 5:18 and if by the Spirit ye are led, ye are not under law. 5:19 And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 5:20 idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strifes, emulations, wraths, rivalries, dissensions, sects, 5:21 envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revellings, and such like, of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that those doing such things the reign of God shall not inherit. 5:22 And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, 5:23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law; 5:24 and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires; 5:25 if we may live in the Spirit, in the Spirit also we may walk; 5:26 let us not become vain-glorious--one another provoking, one another envying!
