1In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free--stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude;

1Christ has set us free in freedom; stand fast therefore, and be not held again in a yoke of bondage.

2lo, I Paul do say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing;

2Behold, I, Paul, say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

3and I testify again to every man circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law;

3And I witness again to every man [who is] circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law.

4ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;

4Ye are deprived of all profit from the Christ as separated [from him], as many as are justified by law; ye have fallen from grace.

5for we by the Spirit, by faith, a hope of righteousness do wait for,

5For we, by [the] Spirit, on the principle of faith, await the hope of righteousness.

6for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith through love working.

6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any force, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.

7Ye were running well; who did hinder you--not to obey the truth?

7Ye ran well; who has stopped you that ye should not obey the truth?

8the obedience <FI>is<Fi> not of him who is calling you!

8The persuasibleness [is] not of him that calls you.

9a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven;

9A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

10I 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.

10I have confidence as to you in [the] Lord, that ye will have no other mind; and he that is troubling you shall bear the guilt [of it], whosoever he may be.

11And I, brethren, if uncircumcision I yet preach, why yet am I persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away;

11But I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? Then the scandal of the cross has been done away.

12O that even they would cut themselves off who are unsettling you!

12I would that they would even cut themselves off who throw you into confusion.

13For 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,

13For ye have been called to liberty, brethren; only [do] not [turn] liberty into an opportunity to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

14for all the law in one word is fulfilled--in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;'

14For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;

15and if one another ye do bite and devour, see--that ye may not by one another be consumed.

15but if ye bite and devour one another, see that ye are not consumed one of another.

16And I say: In the Spirit walk ye, and the desire of the flesh ye may not complete;

16But I say, Walk in [the] Spirit, and ye shall no way fulfil flesh's lust.

17for 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;

17For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are opposed one to the other, that ye should not do those things which ye desire;

18and if by the Spirit ye are led, ye are not under law.

18but if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under law.

19And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,

20idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strifes, emulations, wraths, rivalries, dissensions, sects,

20idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strifes, jealousies, angers, contentions, disputes, schools of opinion,

21envyings, 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.

21envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revels, and things like these; as to which I tell you beforehand, even as I also have said before, that they who do such things shall not inheritGod's kingdom.

22And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,

23meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;

23meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law.

24and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires;

24But they that [are] of the Christ have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts.

25if we may live in the Spirit, in the Spirit also we may walk;

25If we live by the Spirit, let us walk also by the Spirit.

26let us not become vain-glorious--one another provoking, one another envying!

26Let us not become vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
