Galatians: Chapter 1

¹ Paul^G3972, an apostle^G0652, (not^G3756 of^G0575 men^G0444, neither^G3761 by^G1223 man^G0444, but^G0235 by^G1223 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, and^G2532 God^G2316 the Father^G3962, who^G3588 raised^G1453 him^G0846 from^G1537 the dead^G3498;) ²And^G2532 all^G3956 the brethren^G0080 which are^G3588 with^G4862 me^G1698, unto the churches^G1577 of Galatia^G1053: ³Grace^G5485 be to you^G5213 and^G2532 peace^G1515 from^G0575 God^G2316 the Father^G3962, and^G2532 from our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, ⁴Who^G3588 gave^G1325 himself^G1438 for^G5228 our^G2257 sins^G0266, that^G3704 he might deliver^G1807 us^G2248 from^G1537 this^G3588 present^G1764 evil^G4190 world^G0165, according to^G2596 the will^G2307 of God^G2316 and^G2532 our^G2257 Father^G3962: ⁵To whom^G3739 be glory^G1391 for^G1519 ever^G0165 and ever^G0165. Amen^G0281.

⁶I marvel^G2296 that^G3754 ye are^G3346 so^G3779 soon^G5030 removed^G3346 from^G0575 him that^G3588 called^G2564 you^G5209 into^G1722 the grace^G5485 of Christ^G5547 unto^G1519 another^G2087 gospel^G2098: ⁷Which^G3739 is^G2076 not^G3756 another^G0243; but^G3361 there be^G1526 some^G5100 that^G3588 trouble^G5015 you^G5209, and^G2532 would^G2309 pervert^G3344 the gospel^G2098 of Christ^G5547. ⁸But^G0235 though^G1437 we^G2249, or^G2228 an angel^G0032 from^G1537 heaven^G3772, preach any other gospel^G2097 unto you^G5213 than^G3844 that which^G3739 we have preached^G2097 unto you^G5213, let him be^G2077 accursed^G0331. ⁹As^G5613 we said before^G4280, so^G2532 say I^G3004 now^G0737 again^G3825, If^G1487 any^G5100 man preach any other gospel^G2097 unto you^G5209 than^G3844 that^G3739 ye have received^G3880, let him be^G2077 accursed^G0331.

¹⁰For^G1063 do I^G3982 now^G0737 persuade^G3982 men^G0444, or^G2228 God^G2316? or^G2228 do I seek^G2212 to please^G0700 men^G0444? for^G1063 if^G1487 I^G0700 yet^G2089 pleased^G0700 men^G0444, I should^G2252 not^G3756 be^G2252 the servant^G1401 of Christ^G5547. ¹¹But^G1161 I certify^G1107 you^G5213, brethren^G0080, that^G3588 the gospel^G2098 which^G3588 was preached^G2097 of^G5259 me^G1700 is^G2076 not^G3756 after^G2596 man^G0444. ¹²For^G1063 I^G1473 neither^G3761 received^G3880 it^G0846 of^G3844 man^G0444, neither^G3777 was I taught^G1321 it , but^G0235 by^G1223 the revelation^G0602 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547. ¹³For^G1063 ye have heard of^G0191 my^G1699 conversation^G0391 in time past^G4218 in^G1722 the Jewsreligion^G2454, how that^G3754 beyond measure^G5236 I persecuted^G1377 the church^G1577 of God^G2316, and^G2532 wasted^G4199 it^G0846: ¹⁴And^G2532 profited^G4298 in^G1722 the Jewsreligion^G2454 above^G5228 many^G4183 my equals^G4915 in^G1722 mine own^G3450 nation^G1085, being^G5225 more exceedingly^G4056 zealous^G2207 of the traditions^G3967 of my^G3450 fathers^G3862. ¹⁵But^G1161 when^G3753 it pleased^G2106 God^G2316, who^G3588 separated^G0873 me^G3165 from^G1537 my^G3450 mothers^G3384 womb^G2836, and^G2532 called^G2564 me by^G1223 his^G0846 grace^G5485, ¹⁶To reveal^G0601 his^G0846 Son^G5207 in^G1722 me^G1698, that^G2443 I might preach^G2097 him^G0846 among^G1722 the heathen^G1484; immediately^G2112 I conferred^G4323 not^G3756 with flesh^G4561 and^G2532 blood^G0129: ¹⁷Neither^G3761 went I up^G0424 to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414 to^G4314 them which were^G3588 apostles^G0652 before^G4253 me^G1700; but^G0235 I went^G0565 into^G1519 Arabia^G0688, and^G2532 returned^G5290 again^G3825 unto^G1519 Damascus^G1154. ¹⁸Then^G1899 after^G3326 three^G5140 years^G2094 I went up^G0424 to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414 to see^G2477 Peter^G4074, and^G2532 abode^G1961 with^G4314 him^G0846 fifteen^G1178 days^G2250. ¹⁹But^G1161 other^G2087 of the apostles^G0652 saw I^G1492 none^G3756, save^G1487 James^G2385 the^G0080 Lords^G2962 brother^G0080. ²⁰Now^G1161 the things which^G3739 I write^G1125 unto you^G5213, behold^G2400, before^G1799 God^G2316, I lie^G5574 not^G3756. ²¹Afterwards^G1899 I came^G2064 into^G1519 the regions^G2824 of Syria^G4947 and^G2532 Cilicia^G2791; ²²And^G1161 was^G2252 unknown^G0050 by face^G4383 unto the churches^G1577 of Judaea^G2449 which were^G3588 in^G1722 Christ^G5547: ²³But^G1161 they had^G2258 heard^G0191 only^G3440, That^G3754 he which^G3588 persecuted^G1377 us^G2248 in times past^G4218 now^G3568 preacheth^G2097 the faith^G4102 which^G3739 once^G4218 he destroyed^G4199. ²⁴And^G2532 they glorified^G1392 God^G2316 in^G1722 me^G1698.

Galatians: Chapter 2

¹Then^G1899 fourteen^G1180 years^G2094 after^G1223 I went up^G0305 again^G3825 to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414 with^G3326 Barnabas^G0921, and took^G4838 Titus^G5103 with^G4838 me also^G2532. ²And^G1161 I went up^G0305 by^G2596 revelation^G0602, and^G2532 communicated^G0394 unto them^G0846 that gospel^G2098 which^G3739 I preach^G2784 among^G1722 the Gentiles^G1484, but^G1161 privately^G2398 to them which^G3588 were of reputation^G1380, lest by any means^G3381 I should run^G5143, or^G2228 had run^G5143, in^G1519 vain^G2756. ³But^G0235 neither^G3761 Titus^G5103, who was^G3588 with^G4862 me^G1698, being^G5607 a Greek^G1672, was compelled^G0315 to be circumcised^G4059: ⁴And that^G1161 because of^G1223 false brethren^G5569 unawares brought in^G3920, who^G3748 came in privily^G3922 to spy out^G2684 our^G2257 liberty^G1657 which^G3739 we have^G2192 in^G1722 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424, that^G2443 they might bring^G2615 us^G2248 into bondage^G2615: ⁵To whom^G3739 we gave place^G1502 by subjection^G5292, no, not^G3761 for^G4314 an hour^G5610; that^G2443 the truth^G0225 of the gospel^G2098 might continue^G1265 with^G4314 you^G5209. ⁶But^G1161 of^G0575 these who^G3588 seemed^G1380 to be^G1511 somewhat^G5100, (whatsoever^G3697 they were^G2258, it maketh^G1308 no^G3762 matter^G1308 to me^G3427: God^G2316 accepteth^G2983 no^G3756 mans^G0444 person^G4383:) for^G1063 they who^G3588 seemed^G1380 to be somewhat in conference added^G4323 nothing^G3762 to me^G1698: ⁷But^G0235 contrariwise^G5121, when they saw^G1492 that^G3754 the gospel^G2098 of the uncircumcision^G0203 was committed unto me^G4100, as^G2531 the gospel of the circumcision^G4061 was unto Peter^G4074; ⁸(For^G1063 he that^G3588 wrought effectually^G1754 in Peter^G4074 to^G1519 the apostleship^G0651 of the circumcision^G4061, the same was mighty^G1754 in me^G1698 toward^G1519 the Gentiles^G1484:) ⁹And^G2532 when James^G2385, Cephas^G2786, and^G2532 John^G2491, who^G3588 seemed^G1380 to be^G1511 pillars^G4769, perceived^G1097 the grace^G5485 that^G3588 was given^G1325 unto me^G3427, they gave^G1325 to me^G1698 and^G2532 Barnabas^G0921 the right hands^G1188 of fellowship^G2842; that^G2443 we^G2249 should go unto^G1519 the heathen^G1484, and^G1161 they^G0846 unto^G1519 the circumcision^G4061. ¹⁰Only^G3440 they would that^G2443 we should remember^G3421 the poor^G4434; the same^G0846 which^G3739 I^G4704 also^G2532 was forward^G4704 to do^G4160. ¹¹But^G1161 when^G3753 Peter^G4074 was come^G2064 to^G1519 Antioch^G0490, I withstood^G0436 him^G0846 to^G2596 the face^G4383, because^G3754 he was^G2258 to be blamed^G2607. ¹²For^G1063 before^G4253 that^G3588 certain^G5100 came^G2064 from^G0575 James^G2385, he did eat^G4906 with^G3326 the Gentiles^G1484: but^G1161 when^G3753 they were come^G2064, he withdrew^G5288 and^G2532 separated^G0873 himself^G1438, fearing^G5399 them which^G3588 were of^G1537 the circumcision^G4061. ¹³And^G2532 the other^G3062 Jews^G2453 dissembled^G4942 likewise^G2532 with him^G0846; insomuch that^G5620 Barnabas^G0921 also^G2532 was carried away with^G4879 their^G0846 dissimulation^G5272. ¹⁴But^G0235 when^G3753 I saw^G1492 that^G3754 they walked^G3716 not^G3756 uprightly^G3716 according to^G4314 the truth^G0225 of the gospel^G2098, I said^G2036 unto Peter^G4074 before^G1715 them all^G3956, If^G1487 thou^G4771, being^G5225 a Jew^G2453, livest^G2198 after the manner of Gentiles^G1483, and^G2532 not^G3756 as do the Jews^G2452, why^G5101 compellest thou^G0315 the Gentiles^G1484 to live as do the Jews^G2450? ¹⁵We^G2249 who are Jews^G2453 by nature^G5449, and^G2532 not^G3756 sinners^G0268 of^G1537 the Gentiles^G1484, ¹⁶Knowing^G1492 that^G3754 a man^G0444 is^G1344 not^G3756 justified^G1344 by^G1537 the works^G2041 of the law^G3551, but^G1437 by^G1223 the faith^G4102 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, even^G2532 we^G2249 have believed^G4100 in^G1519 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, that^G2443 we might be justified^G1344 by^G1537 the faith^G4102 of Christ^G5547, and^G2532 not^G3756 by^G1537 the works^G2041 of the law^G3551: for by^G1360 the works^G2041 of^G1537 the law^G3551 shall^G1344 no^G3756 flesh^G4561 be justified^G1344. ¹⁷But^G1161 if^G1487, while we seek^G2212 to be justified^G1344 by^G1722 Christ^G5547, we ourselves^G0846 also^G2532 are found^G2147 sinners^G0268, is therefore^G0687 Christ^G5547 the minister^G1249 of sin^G0266? God forbid^G1096. ¹⁸For^G1063 if^G1487 I build^G3618 again^G3825 the things^G5023 which^G3739 I destroyed^G2647, I make^G4921 myself^G1683 a transgressor^G3848. ¹⁹For^G1063 I^G1473 through^G1223 the law^G3551 am dead^G0599 to the law^G3551, that^G2443 I might live^G2198 unto God^G2316. ²⁰I am crucified with^G4957 Christ^G5547: nevertheless^G1161 I live^G2198; yet not^G3765 I^G1473, but^G1161 Christ^G5547 liveth^G2198 in^G1722 me^G1698: and^G1161 the life which^G3739 I^G2198 now^G3568 live^G2198 in^G1722 the flesh^G4561 I live^G2198 by^G1722 the faith^G4102 of the Son^G5207 of God^G2316, who^G3588 loved^G0025 me^G3165, and^G2532 gave^G3860 himself^G1438 for^G5228 me^G1700. ²¹I do^G0114 not^G3756 frustrate^G0114 the grace^G5485 of God^G2316: for^G1063 if^G1487 righteousness^G1343 come by^G1223 the law^G3551, then^G0686 Christ^G5547 is dead^G0599 in vain^G1432.

Galatians: Chapter 3

¹O^G5599 foolish^G0453 Galatians^G1052, who^G5101 hath bewitched^G0940 you^G5209, that ye should^G3982 not^G3361 obey^G3982 the truth^G0225, before^G2596 whose^G3739 eyes^G3788 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 hath been evidently set forth^G4270, crucified^G4717 among^G1722 you^G5213? ²This^G5124 only^G3440 would^G2309 I learn^G3129 of^G0575 you^G5216, Received ye^G2983 the Spirit^G4151 by^G1537 the works^G2041 of the law^G3551, or^G2228 by^G1537 the hearing^G0189 of faith^G4102? ³Are ye^G2075 so^G3779 foolish^G0453? having begun^G1728 in the Spirit^G4151, are ye^G2005 now^G3568 made perfect^G2005 by the flesh^G4561? ⁴Have ye suffered^G3958 so many things^G5118 in vain^G1500? if^G1489 it be yet^G2532 in vain^G1500. ⁵He^G2023 therefore^G3767 that^G3588 ministereth^G2023 to you^G5213 the Spirit^G4151, and^G2532 worketh^G1754 miracles^G1411 among^G1722 you^G5213, doeth he it by^G1537 the works^G2041 of the law^G3551, or^G2228 by^G1537 the hearing^G0189 of faith^G4102? ⁶Even as^G2531 Abraham^G0011 believed^G4100 God^G2316, and^G2532 it was accounted^G3049 to him^G0846 for^G1519 righteousness^G1343.

⁷Know ye^G1097 therefore^G0686 that^G3754 they which are^G3588 of^G1537 faith^G4102, the same^G3778 are^G1526 the children of^G5207 Abraham^G0011. ⁸And^G1161 the scripture^G1124, foreseeing^G4275 that^G3754 God^G2316 would justify^G1344 the heathen^G1484 through^G1537 faith^G4102, preached before the gospel^G4283 unto Abraham^G0011, saying , In^G1722 thee^G4671 shall^G2127 all^G3956 nations^G1484 be blessed^G2127. ⁹So then^G5620 they^G2127 which be^G3588 of^G1537 faith^G4102 are blessed^G2127 with^G4862 faithful^G4103 Abraham^G0011. ¹⁰For^G1063 as many as^G3745 are^G1526 of^G1537 the works^G2041 of the law^G3551 are^G1526 under^G5259 the curse^G2671: for^G1063 it is written^G1125, Cursed^G1944 is every one^G3956 that^G3739 continueth^G1696 not^G3756 in^G1722 all things^G3956 which^G3588 are written^G1125 in^G1722 the book^G0975 of the law^G3551 to do^G4160 them^G0846. ¹¹But^G1161 that^G3754 no man^G3762 is justified^G1344 by^G1722 the law^G3551 in the sight of^G3844 God^G2316, it is evident^G1212: for^G3754, The just^G1342 shall live^G2198 by^G1537 faith^G4102. ¹²And^G1161 the law^G3551 is^G2076 not^G3756 of^G1537 faith^G4102: but^G0235, The man^G0444 that doeth^G4160 them^G0846 shall live^G2198 in^G1722 them^G0846. ¹³ Christ^G5547 hath redeemed^G1805 us^G2248 from^G1537 the curse^G2671 of the law^G3551, being made^G1096 a curse^G2671 for^G5228 us^G2257: for^G1063 it is written^G1125, Cursed^G1944 is every one^G3956 that^G3588 hangeth^G2910 on^G1909 a tree^G3586: ¹⁴That^G2443 the blessing^G2129 of Abraham^G0011 might come^G1096 on^G1519 the Gentiles^G1484 through^G1722 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547; that^G2443 we might receive^G2983 the promise^G1860 of the Spirit^G4151 through^G1223 faith^G4102. ¹⁵Brethren^G0080, I speak^G3004 after the manner of^G2596 men^G0444; Though^G3676 it be but^G3676 a mans^G0444 covenant^G1242, yet if it be confirmed^G2964, no man^G3762 disannulleth^G0114, or^G2228 addeth thereto^G1928. ¹⁶Now^G1161 to Abraham^G0011 and^G2532 his^G0846 seed^G4690 were^G4483 the promises^G1860 made^G4483. He saith^G3004 not^G3756, And^G2532 to seeds^G4690, as^G5613 of^G1909 many^G4183; but^G0235 as^G5613 of^G1909 one^G1520, And^G2532 to^G4690 thy^G4675 seed^G4690, which^G3739 is^G2076 Christ^G5547. ¹⁷And^G1161 this^G5124 I say^G3004, that the covenant^G1242, that was confirmed before^G4300 of^G5259 God^G2316 in^G1519 Christ^G5547, the law^G3551, which^G3588 was^G1096 four hundred^G5071 and^G2532 thirty^G5144 years^G2094 after^G3326, cannot^G3756 disannul^G0208, that^G3588 it should make^G2673 the promise^G1860 of none effect^G2673. ¹⁸For^G1063 if^G1487 the inheritance^G2817 be of^G1537 the law^G3551, it is no more^G3765 of^G1537 promise^G1860: but^G1161 God^G2316 gave^G5483 it to Abraham^G0011 by^G1223 promise^G1860. ¹⁹Wherefore^G5101 then^G3767 serveth the law^G3551? It was added^G4369 because^G5484 of transgressions^G3847, till^G0891 the seed^G4690 should come^G2064 to whom^G3739 the promise was made^G1861; and it was ordained^G1299 by^G1223 angels^G0032 in^G1722 the hand^G5495 of a mediator^G3316. ²⁰Now^G1161 a mediator^G3316 is^G2076 not^G3756 a mediator of one^G1520, but^G1161 God^G2316 is^G2076 one^G1520. ²¹ Is the law^G3551 then^G3767 against^G2596 the promises^G1860 of God^G2316? God forbid^G1096: for^G1063 if^G1487 there had been^G1325 a law^G3551 given^G1325 which^G3588 could have^G1410 given life^G2227, verily^G3689 righteousness^G1343 should have been^G2258 by^G1537 the law^G3551. ²²But^G0235 the scripture^G1124 hath concluded^G4788 all^G3956 under^G5259 sin^G0266, that^G2443 the promise^G1860 by^G1537 faith^G4102 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 might be given^G1325 to them that^G3588 believe^G4100.

²³But^G1161 before^G4253 faith^G4102 came^G2064, we were kept^G5432 under^G5259 the law^G3551, shut up^G4788 unto^G1519 the faith^G4102 which^G3588 should afterwards^G3195 be revealed^G0601. ²⁴Wherefore^G5620 the law^G3551 was^G1096 our^G2257 schoolmaster^G3807 to bring us unto^G1519 Christ^G5547, that^G2443 we might be justified^G1344 by^G1537 faith^G4102. ²⁵But^G1161 after that^G3588 faith^G4102 is come^G2064, we are^G2070 no longer^G3765 under^G5259 a schoolmaster^G3807. ²⁶For^G1063 ye are^G2075 all^G3956 the children^G5207 of God^G2316 by^G1223 faith^G4102 in^G1722 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424. ²⁷For^G1063 as many^G3745 of you^G0907 as^G3745 have been baptized^G0907 into^G1519 Christ^G5547 have put on^G1746 Christ^G5547. ²⁸There is^G1762 neither^G3756 Jew^G2453 nor^G3761 Greek^G1672, there is^G1762 neither^G3756 bond^G1401 nor^G3761 free^G1658, there is^G1762 neither^G3756 male^G0730 nor^G2532 female^G2338: for^G1063 ye^G5210 are^G2075 all^G3956 one^G1520 in^G1722 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424. ²⁹And^G1161 if^G1487 ye^G5210 be Christs^G5547, then^G0686 are ye^G2075 Abrahams^G0011 seed^G4690, and^G2532 heirs^G2818 according to^G2596 the promise^G1860.

Galatians: Chapter 4

¹Now^G1161 I say^G3004, That the heir^G2818, as long as^G3745 he is^G2076 a child^G3516, differeth^G1308 nothing^G3762 from^G1308 a servant^G1401, though^G1401 he be^G5607 lord^G2962 of all^G3956; ²But^G0235 is^G2076 under^G5259 tutors^G2012 and^G2532 governors^G3623 until^G0891 the time appointed^G4287 of the father^G3962. ³Even^G2532 so^G3779 we^G2249, when^G3753 we were^G1510 children^G3516, were^G1510 in bondage^G1402 under^G5259 the elements^G4747 of the world^G2889: ⁴But^G1161 when^G3753 the fulness^G4138 of the time^G5550 was come^G2064, God^G2316 sent forth^G1821 his^G0846 Son^G5207, made^G1096 of^G1537 a woman^G1135, made^G1096 under^G5259 the law^G3551, ⁵To redeem^G1805 them^G3588 that were^G2443 under^G5259 the law^G3551, that^G2443 we might receive^G0618 the adoption of sons^G5206. ⁶And^G1161 because^G3754 ye are^G2075 sons^G5207, God^G2316 hath sent forth^G1821 the Spirit^G4151 of his^G0846 Son^G5207 into^G1519 your^G5216 hearts^G2588, crying^G2896, Abba^G0005, Father^G3962. ⁷Wherefore^G5620 thou art^G1488 no more^G3765 a servant^G1401, but^G0235 a son^G5207; and^G1161 if^G1487 a son^G5207, then^G2532 an heir^G2818 of God^G2316 through^G1223 Christ^G5547.

⁸Howbeit^G0235 then^G5119, when ye knew not^G3756 God^G2316, ye did service^G1398 unto them which^G3588 by nature^G5449 are^G5607 no^G3361 gods^G2316. ⁹But^G1161 now^G3568, after that ye have known^G1097 God^G2316, or^G1161 rather^G3123 are known^G1097 of^G5259 God^G2316, how^G4459 turn ye^G1994 again^G3825 to^G1909 the weak^G0772 and^G2532 beggarly^G4434 elements^G4747, whereunto^G3739 ye desire^G2309 again^G3825 to be in bondage^G1398? ¹⁰Ye observe^G3906 days^G2250, and^G2532 months^G3376, and^G2532 times^G2540, and^G2532 years^G1763. ¹¹I am afraid of^G5399 you^G5209, lest^G3381 I have bestowed^G2872 upon^G1519 you^G5209 labour^G2872 in vain^G1500.

¹²Brethren^G0080, I beseech^G1189 you^G5216, be^G1096 as^G5613 I^G1473 am ; for I^G2504 am as^G5613 ye^G5210 are : ye have^G0091 not^G3762 injured^G0091 me^G3165 at all. ¹³Ye know^G1492 how^G3754 through^G1223 infirmity^G0769 of the flesh^G4561 I preached the gospel^G2097 unto you^G5213 at the first^G4386. ¹⁴And^G2532 my^G3450 temptation^G3986 which was^G3588 in^G1722 my^G3450 flesh^G4561 ye despised^G1848 not^G3756, nor^G3761 rejected^G1609; but^G0235 received^G1209 me^G3165 as^G5613 an angel^G0032 of God^G2316, even as^G5613 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424. ¹⁵Where^G5101 is^G2258 then^G3767 the blessedness^G3108 ye spake of^G5216? for^G1063 I bear^G3140 you^G5213 record^G3140, that^G3754, if^G1487 it had been possible^G1415, ye would have plucked out^G1846 your own^G5216 eyes^G3788, and have given them^G1325 to me^G3427. ¹⁶Am I^G1096 therefore^G5620 become^G1096 your^G5216 enemy^G2190, because I tell^G0226 you^G5213 the truth^G0226? ¹⁷They zealously affect^G2206 you^G5209, but not^G3756 well^G2573; yea^G0235, they would^G2309 exclude^G1576 you^G5209, that^G2443 ye might affect^G2206 them^G0846. ¹⁸But^G1161 it is good^G2570 to be zealously affected^G2206 always^G3842 in^G1722 a good^G2570 thing , and^G2532 not^G3361 only^G3440 when I^G3165 am present^G3918 with^G4314 you^G5209. ¹⁹My^G3450 little children^G5040, of whom^G3739 I travail in birth^G5605 again^G3825 until^G0891 Christ^G5547 be formed^G3445 in^G1722 you^G5213, ²⁰I desire^G2309 to be present^G3918 with^G4314 you^G5209 now^G0737, and^G2532 to change^G0236 my^G3450 voice^G5456; for^G3754 I stand in doubt^G0639 of^G1722 you^G5213.

²¹Tell^G3004 me^G3427, ye that^G3588 desire^G2309 to be^G1511 under^G5259 the law^G3551, do ye^G0191 not^G3756 hear^G0191 the law^G3551? ²²For^G1063 it is written^G1125, that^G3754 Abraham^G0011 had^G2192 two^G1417 sons^G5207, the one^G1520 by^G1537 a bondmaid^G3814, the other^G1520 by^G1537 a freewoman^G1658. ²³But^G0235 he^G3588 who was of^G1537 the bondwoman^G3814 was born^G1080 after^G2596 the flesh^G4561; but^G1161 he^G3588 of^G1537 the freewoman^G1658 was by^G1223 promise^G1860. ²⁴Which things^G3748 are^G2076 an allegory^G0238: for^G1063 these^G3778 are^G1526 the^G1242 two^G1417 covenants^G1242; the one^G1520 from^G0575 the mount^G3735 Sinai^G4614, which gendereth^G1080 to^G1519 bondage^G1397, which^G3748 is^G2076 Agar^G0028. ²⁵For^G1063 this^G3588 Agar^G0028 is^G2076 mount^G3735 Sinai^G4614 in^G1722 Arabia^G0688, and^G1161 answereth to^G4960 Jerusalem^G2419 which^G3588 now^G3568 is^G3588, and^G1161 is in bondage^G1398 with^G3326 her^G0846 children^G5043. ²⁶But^G1161 Jerusalem^G2419 which is^G3588 above^G0507 is^G2076 free^G1658, which^G3748 is^G2076 the mother^G3384 of us^G2257 all^G3956. ²⁷For^G1063 it is written^G1125, Rejoice^G2165, thou barren^G4723 that^G3588 bearest^G5088 not^G3756; break forth^G4486 and^G2532 cry^G0994, thou that^G3588 travailest^G5605 not^G3756: for^G3754 the desolate hath^G2048 many^G4183 more^G3123 children^G5043 than^G2228 she which^G3588 hath^G2192 an husband^G0435. ²⁸Now^G1161 we^G2249, brethren^G0080, as^G2596 Isaac was^G2464, are^G2070 the children^G5043 of promise^G1860. ²⁹But^G0235 as^G5618 then^G5119 he that^G3588 was born^G1080 after^G2596 the flesh^G4561 persecuted^G1377 him^G3588 that was born after^G2596 the Spirit^G4151, even^G2532 so^G3779 it is now^G3568. ³⁰Nevertheless^G0235 what^G5101 saith^G3004 the scripture^G1124?

¹Stand fast^G4739 therefore^G3767 in the liberty^G1657 wherewith^G3739 Christ^G5547 hath made^G1659 us^G2248 free^G1659, and^G2532 be^G1758 not^G3361 entangled^G1758 again^G3825 with the yoke^G2218 of bondage^G1397.

²Behold^G1492, I^G1473 Paul^G3972 say^G3004 unto you^G5213, that^G3754 if^G1437 ye be circumcised^G4059, Christ^G5547 shall profit^G5623 you^G5209 nothing^G3762. ³For^G1161 I testify^G3143 again^G3825 to every^G3956 man^G0444 that is circumcised^G4059, that^G3754 he is^G2076 a debtor^G3781 to do^G4160 the^G3551 whole^G3650 law^G3551. ⁴ Christ^G5547 is become^G2673 of^G0575 no effect unto you^G2673, whosoever^G3748 of you are justified^G1344 by^G1722 the law^G3551; ye are fallen from^G1601 grace^G5485. ⁵For^G1063 we^G2249 through the Spirit^G4151 wait for^G0553 the hope^G1680 of righteousness^G1343 by^G1537 faith^G4102. ⁶For^G1063 in^G1722 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 neither^G3777 circumcision^G4061 availeth^G2480 any^G5100 thing, nor^G3777 uncircumcision^G0203; but^G0235 faith^G4102 which worketh^G1754 by^G1223 love^G0026. ⁷Ye did run^G5143 well^G2573; who^G5101 did hinder^G0348 you^G5209 that ye should^G3982 not^G3361 obey^G3982 the truth^G0225? ⁸This^G3588 persuasion^G3988 cometh not^G3756 of^G1537 him that^G3588 calleth^G2564 you^G5209. ⁹A little^G3398 leaven^G2219 leaveneth^G2220 the^G5445 whole^G3650 lump^G5445. ¹⁰I^G1473 have confidence^G3982 in^G1519 you^G5209 through^G1722 the Lord^G2962, that^G3754 ye will be^G5426 none^G3762 otherwise^G0243 minded^G5426: but^G1161 he that^G3588 troubleth^G5015 you^G5209 shall bear^G0941 his^G3588 judgment^G2917, whosoever^G0302 he be^G5600. ¹¹And^G1161 I^G1473, brethren^G0080, if^G1487 I^G2784 yet^G2089 preach^G2784 circumcision^G4061, why^G5101 do I^G1377 yet^G2089 suffer persecution^G1377? then^G0686 is^G2673 the offence^G4625 of the cross^G4716 ceased^G2673. ¹²I would^G3785 they were^G0609 even^G2532 cut off^G0609 which^G3588 trouble^G0387 you^G5209. ¹³For^G1063, brethren^G0080, ye^G5210 have been called^G2564 unto^G1909 liberty^G1657; only^G3440 use not^G3361 liberty^G1657 for^G1519 an occasion^G0874 to the flesh^G4561, but^G0235 by^G1223 love^G0026 serve^G1398 one another^G0240. ¹⁴For^G1063 all^G3956 the law^G3551 is fulfilled^G4137 in^G1722 one^G1520 word^G3056, even in^G1722 this^G3588; Thou shalt love^G0025 thy^G4675 neighbour^G4139 as^G5613 thyself^G1438. ¹⁵But^G1161 if^G1487 ye bite^G1143 and^G2532 devour^G2719 one another^G0240, take heed^G0991 that ye be^G0355 not^G3361 consumed^G0355 one^G0240 of^G5259 another^G0240. ¹⁶ This I say^G3004 then^G1161, Walk^G4043 in the Spirit^G4151, and^G2532 ye shall^G5055 not^G3756 fulfil^G5055 the lust^G1939 of the flesh^G4561. ¹⁷For^G1063 the flesh^G4561 lusteth^G1937 against^G2596 the Spirit^G4151, and^G1161 the Spirit^G4151 against^G2596 the flesh^G4561: and^G1161 these^G5023 are contrary^G0480 the one to the other^G0240: so that^G2443 ye^G4160 cannot^G3361 do^G4160 the things^G5023 that^G3739 ye would^G2309. ¹⁸But^G1161 if^G1487 ye be led^G0071 of the Spirit^G4151, ye are^G2075 not^G3756 under^G5259 the law^G3551. ¹⁹Now^G1161 the works^G2041 of the flesh^G4561 are^G2076 manifest^G5318, which^G3748 are^G2076 these ; Adultery^G3430, fornication^G4202, uncleanness^G0167, lasciviousness^G0766, ²⁰Idolatry^G1495, witchcraft^G5331, hatred^G2189, variance^G2054, emulations^G2205, wrath^G2372, strife^G2052, seditions^G1370, heresies^G0139, ²¹Envyings^G5355, murders^G5408, drunkenness^G3178, revellings^G2970, and^G2532 such^G5125 like^G3664: of the which^G3739 I tell^G4302 you^G5213 before^G4302, as^G2531 I have^G4277 also^G2532 told^G4277 you in time past, that^G3754 they which^G3588 do^G4238 such things^G5108 shall^G2816 not^G3756 inherit^G2816 the kingdom^G0932 of God^G2316. ²²But^G1161 the fruit^G2590 of the Spirit^G4151 is^G2076 love^G0026, joy^G5479, peace^G1515, longsuffering^G3115, gentleness^G5544, goodness^G0019, faith^G4102, ²³Meekness^G4236, temperance^G1466: against^G2596 such^G5108 there is^G2076 no^G3756 law^G3551. ²⁴And^G1161 they that are^G3588 Christs^G5547 have crucified^G4717 the flesh^G4561 with^G4862 the affections^G3804 and^G2532 lusts^G1939. ²⁵If^G1487 we live^G2198 in the Spirit^G4151, let us^G4748 also^G2532 walk^G4748 in the Spirit^G4151. ²⁶Let us^G1096 not^G3361 be^G1096 desirous of vain glory^G2755, provoking^G4292 one another^G0240, envying^G5354 one another^G0240.

¹Brethren^G0080, if^G1437 a man^G0444 be overtaken^G4301 in^G1722 a fault^G3900, ye^G5210 which are^G3588 spiritual^G4152, restore^G2675 such an one^G5108 in^G1722 the spirit^G4151 of meekness^G4236; considering^G4648 thyself^G4572, lest^G3361 thou^G4771 also^G2532 be tempted^G3985. ²Bear ye^G0941 one anothers^G0240 burdens^G0922, and^G2532 so^G3779 fulfil^G0378 the law^G3551 of Christ^G5547. ³For^G1063 if^G1487 a man^G5100 think^G1380 himself to be^G1511 something^G5100, when he is^G5607 nothing^G3367, he deceiveth^G5422 himself^G1438. ⁴But^G1161 let^G1381 every man^G1538 prove^G1381 his own^G1438 work^G2041, and^G2532 then^G5119 shall he have^G2192 rejoicing^G2745 in^G1519 himself^G1438 alone^G3441, and^G2532 not^G3756 in^G1519 another^G2087. ⁵For^G1063 every man^G1538 shall bear^G0941 his own^G2398 burden^G5413. ⁶Let^G2727 him that^G3588 is taught^G2727 in the word^G3056 communicate^G2841 unto him that^G3588 teacheth^G2727 in^G1722 all^G3956 good things^G0018. ⁷Be^G4105 not^G3361 deceived^G4105; God^G2316 is^G3456 not^G3756 mocked^G3456: for^G1063 whatsoever^G1437 a man^G0444 soweth^G4687, that^G5124 shall he^G2325 also^G2532 reap^G2325. ⁸For^G3754 he that^G3588 soweth^G4687 to^G1519 his^G1438 flesh^G4561 shall^G2325 of^G1537 the flesh^G4561 reap^G2325 corruption^G5356; but^G1161 he tha^G3588t soweth^G4687 to^G1519 the Spirit^G4151 shall^G2325 of^G1537 the Spirit^G4151 reap^G2325 life^G2222 everlasting^G0166. ⁹And^G1161 let us^G1573 not^G3361 be weary^G1573 in well^G2570 doing^G4160: for^G1063 in due^G2398 season^G2540 we shall reap^G2325, if we faint^G1590 not^G3361. ¹⁰As^G5613 we have^G2192 therefore^G3767 opportunity^G2540, let us do^G2038 good^G0018 unto^G4314 all^G3956 men , especially^G3122 unto^G4314 them who are^G3588 of the household^G3609 of faith^G4102. ¹¹Ye see^G1492 how large^G4080 a letter^G1121 I have written^G1125 unto you^G5213 with mine own^G1699 hand^G5495. ¹²As many as^G3745 desire^G2309 to make a fair shew^G2146 in^G1722 the flesh^G4561, they^G3778 constrain^G0315 you^G5209 to be circumcised^G4059; only^G3440 lest^G3361 they should suffer persecution^G1377 for the cross^G4716 of Christ^G5547. ¹³For^G1063 neither^G3761 they^G3588 themselves^G0846 who^G3588 are circumcised^G4059 keep^G5442 the law^G3551; but^G0235 desire^G2309 to have^G4059 you^G5209 circumcised^G4059, that^G2443 they may glory^G2744 in^G1722 your^G5212 flesh^G4561. ¹⁴But^G1161 God forbid that^G1096 I^G1698 should glory^G2744, save^G3361 in^G1722 the cross^G4716 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, by^G1223 whom^G3739 the world^G2889 is crucified^G4717 unto me^G1698, and I^G2504 unto the world^G2889. ¹⁵For^G1063 in^G1722 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424 neither^G3777 circumcision^G4061 availeth^G2480 any thing^G5100, nor^G3777 uncircumcision^G0203, but^G0235 a new^G2537 creature^G2937. ¹⁶And^G2532 as many as^G3745 walk^G4748 according to this^G5129 rule^G2583, peace^G1515 be on^G1909 them^G0846, and^G2532 mercy^G1656, and^G2532 upon^G1909 the Israel^G2474 of God^G2316. ¹⁷From henceforth^G3064 let^G3930 no man^G3367 trouble^G2873 me^G3427: for^G1063 I^G1473 bear^G0941 in^G1722 my^G3450 body^G4983 the marks^G4742 of the Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424. ¹⁸Brethren^G0080, the grace^G5485 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 be with^G3326 your^G5216 spirit^G4151.
