Galatians 5

¹Stand fast therefore in the libertie wherewith Christ hath made vs free, and be not intangled againe with the yoke of bondage.

²Beholde, I Paul say vnto you, that if yee be circumcised, Christ shall profite you nothing.

³For I testifie againe to euery man, which is circumcised, that he is bound to keepe the whole Lawe.

⁴Ye are abolished from Christ: whosoeuer are iustified by the Law, ye are fallen from grace.

⁵For we through the Spirit waite for the hope of righteousnes through faith.

⁶For in Iesus Christ neither circumcision auaileth any thing, neither vncircumcision, but faith which worketh by loue.

⁷Ye did runne well: who did let you, that ye did not obey the trueth?

⁸It is not the perswasion of him that calleth you.

⁹A litle leauen doeth leauen the whole lumpe.

¹⁰I haue trust in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but hee that troubleth you, shall beare his condemnation, whosoeuer he be.

¹¹And brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why doe I yet suffer persecution? Then is the slaunder of the crosse abolished.

¹²Would to God they were euen cut off, which doe disquiet you.

¹³For brethren, ye haue bene called vnto libertie: onely vse not your libertie as an occasion vnto the flesh, but by loue serue one another.

¹⁴For all the Lawe is fulfilled in one worde, which is this, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe.
