| 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 neighbor 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!
