Galatians Chapter 5

5 : 1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

5 : 2 Behold, I Paul say to you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

5 : 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

5 : 4 Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are justified by the law; you are fallen from grace.

5 : 5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

5 : 6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love.

5 : 7 You did run well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth?

5 : 8 This persuasion comes not of him that calls you.

5 : 9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

5 : 10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that you will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he be.

5 : 11 And I, brothers, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offense of the cross ceased.

5 : 12 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

5 : 13 For, brothers, you have been called to liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

5 : 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

5 : 15 But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you be not consumed one of another.

5 : 16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

5 : 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that you cannot do the things that you would.

5 : 18 But if you be led of the Spirit, you are not under the law.

5 : 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

5 : 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, jealousies, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

5 : 21 Contentions, murders, drunkenness, revelings, 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.

5 : 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

5 : 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

5 : 24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

5 : 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

5 : 26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
