1Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.→2Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.→3For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.→4Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.→5For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.→6For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.→7Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?→8This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.→9A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.→10I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.→11And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.→12I would they were even cut off which trouble you.→13For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.→14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.→15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.→16This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.→17For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.→18But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.→19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,→20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,→21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, 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.→22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,→23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.→24And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.→25If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.→26Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.→
