Galatians 5

¹For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage.

²Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.

³Yea, I testify again to every man that receiveth circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

⁴Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace.

⁵For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.

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

⁷Ye were running well; who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth?

⁸This persuasion came not of him that calleth you.

⁹A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

¹⁰I 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.

¹¹But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away.

¹²I would that they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision.

¹³For 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.

For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
