Galatians 5

5:1 For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage. 5:2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing. 5:3 Yea, I testify again to every man that receiveth circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. 5:4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace. 5:5 For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness. 5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love. 5:7 Ye were running well; who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth 5:8 This persuasion [came] not of him that calleth you. 5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. 5:10 I have confidence to you-ward in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. 5:11 But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away. 5:12 I would that they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision. 5:13 For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only [use] not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another. 5:14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. 5:15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would. 5:18 But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties, 5:21 envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 5:23 meekness, self-control; against such there is no law. 5:24 And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof. 5:25 If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. 5:26 Let us not become vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
