1. Then stand firm in the freedom with which Christ made us free and do not be held again with a yoke of slavery.
|
1. Stand fast G4739 therefore G3767 in the G3588 liberty G1657 wherewith G3739 Christ G5547 hath made us free G1659 G2248 , and G2532 be not G3361 entangled again with G1758 G3825 the yoke G2218 of bondage G1397 .
|
|
2. Behold, I, Paul, say to you that if you are circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
|
2. Behold G2396 , 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 .
|
|
3. And I testify again to every man being circumcised, that he is a debtor to do all the Law,
|
3. For G1161 I testify G3143 again G3825 to every G3956 man G444 that is circumcised G4059 , that G3754 he is G2076 a debtor G3781 to do G4160 the G3588 whole G3650 law G3551 .
|
|
4. you whoever are justified by Law, you were severed from Christ; you fell from grace.
|
4. Christ G5547 is become of no effect G2673 unto you, whosoever G3748 of you are justified G1344 by G1722 the law G3551 ; ye are fallen G1601 from grace G5485 .
|
|
5. For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness out of faith.
|
5. For G1063 we G2249 through the Spirit G4151 wait for G553 the hope G1680 of righteousness G1343 by G1537 faith G4102 .
|
|
6. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any strength, but faith working through love.
|
6. For G1063 in G1722 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 neither G3777 circumcision G4061 availeth G2480 any thing G5100 , nor G3777 uncircumcision G203 ; but G235 faith G4102 which worketh G1754 by G1223 love G26 .
|
|
7. You were running well; who held you back that you do not obey the truth?
|
7. Ye did run G5143 well G2573 ; who G5101 did hinder G348 you G5209 that ye should not G3361 obey G3982 the G3588 truth G225 ?
|
|
8. The persuasion is not from Him calling you.
|
8. This persuasion G3988 cometh not G3756 of G1537 him that calleth G2564 you G5209 .
|
|
9. A little leaven leavens all the lump.
|
9. A little G3398 leaven G2219 leaveneth G2220 the G3588 whole G3650 lump G5445 .
|
|
10. I trust as to you in the Lord that you will think nothing else, but that the one troubling you shall bear the judgment, whoever he may be.
|
10. I G1473 have confidence G3982 in G1519 you G5209 through G1722 the Lord G2962 , that G3754 ye will be none otherwise minded G5426 G3762 G243 : but G1161 he that troubleth G5015 you G5209 shall bear G941 his judgment G2917 , whosoever G3748 G302 he be G5600 .
|
|
11. But I, brothers, if I proclaim circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the offense of the Cross has passed away.
|
11. And G1161 I G1473 , brethren G80 , if G1487 I yet G2089 preach G2784 circumcision G4061 , why G5101 do I yet G2089 suffer persecution G1377 ? then G686 is the G3588 offense G4625 of the G3588 cross G4716 ceased G2673 .
|
|
12. O that the ones causing you to doubt will sever themselves.
|
12. I would G3785 they were even G2532 cut off G609 which trouble G387 you G5209 .
|
|
13. For, brothers, you were called to freedom. Only do not use the freedom for an opening to the flesh. But through love serve one another.
|
13. For G1063 , brethren G80 , ye G5210 have been called G2564 unto G1909 liberty G1657 ; only G3440 use not G3361 liberty G1657 for G1519 an occasion G874 to the G3588 flesh G4561 , but G235 by G1223 love G26 serve G1398 one another G240 .
|
|
14. For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Lev. 19:18
|
14. For G1063 all G3956 the law G3551 is fulfilled G4137 in G1722 one G1520 word G3056 , even in G1722 this G3588 ; Thou shalt love G25 thy G4675 neighbor G4139 as G5613 thyself G1438 .
|
|
15. But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you are not consumed by one another.
|
15. But G1161 if G1487 ye bite G1143 and G2532 devour G2719 one another G240 , take heed G991 that ye be not G3361 consumed G355 one of another G240 .
|
|
16. But I say, Walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
|
16. This I say G3004 then G1161 , Walk G4043 in the Spirit G4151 , and G2532 ye shall not G3364 fulfill G5055 the lust G1939 of the flesh G4561 .
|
|
17. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another; lest whatever you may will, these things you do.
|
17. For G1063 the G3588 flesh G4561 lusteth G1937 against G2596 the G3588 Spirit G4151 , and G1161 the G3588 Spirit G4151 against G2596 the G3588 flesh G4561 : and G1161 these G5023 are contrary G480 the one to the other G240 : so that G2443 ye cannot G3361 do G4160 the things G5023 that G3739 G302 ye would G2309 .
|
|
18. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under Law.
|
18. But G1161 if G1487 ye be led G71 of the Spirit G4151 , ye are G2075 not G3756 under G5259 the law G3551 .
|
|
19. Now the works of the flesh are clearly revealed, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lustfulness,
|
19. Now G1161 the G3588 works G2041 of the G3588 flesh G4561 are G2076 manifest G5318 , which G3748 are G2076 these ; adultery G3430 , fornication G4202 , uncleanness G167 , lasciviousness G766 ,
|
|
20. idolatry, sorcery, enmities, fightings, jealousies, angers, rivalries, divisions, heresies,
|
20. Idolatry G1495 , witchcraft G5331 , hatred G2189 , variance G2054 , emulations G2205 , wrath G2372 , strife G2052 , seditions G1370 , heresies G139 ,
|
|
21. envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and things like these; of which I tell you beforehand, as I also said before, that the ones practicing such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
|
21. Envyings G5355 , murders G5408 , drunkenness G3178 , revellings G2970 , and G2532 such G5125 like G3664 : of the which G3739 I tell you before G4302 G5213 , as G2531 I have also G2532 told you in time past G4277 , that G3754 they which do G4238 such things G5108 shall not G3756 inherit G2816 the kingdom G932 of God G2316 .
|
|
22. But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,
|
22. But G1161 the G3588 fruit G2590 of the G3588 Spirit G4151 is G2076 love G26 , joy G5479 , peace G1515 , longsuffering G3115 , gentleness G5544 , goodness G19 , faith G4102 ,
|
|
23. meekness, self-control. Against such things there is not a law.
|
23. Meekness G4236 , temperance G1466 : against G2596 such G5108 there is G2076 no G3756 law G3551 .
|
|
24. But the ones belonging to Christ crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.
|
24. And G1161 they G3588 that are Christ G5547 's have crucified G4717 the G3588 flesh G4561 with G4862 the G3588 affections G3804 and G2532 lusts G1939 .
|
|
25. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
|
25. If G1487 we live G2198 in the Spirit G4151 , let us also G2532 walk G4748 in the Spirit G4151 .
|
|
26. Let us not become vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
|
26. Let us not G3361 be G1096 desirous of vain glory G2755 , provoking G4292 one another G240 , envying G5354 one another G240 .
