Galatians 5 :: Revised Standard Version (RSV)

Gal 5:1For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Gal 5:2Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you.
Gal 5:3I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law.
Gal 5:4You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.
Gal 5:5For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness.
Gal 5:6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love.
Gal 5:7You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth?
Gal 5:8This persuasion is not from him who calls you.
Gal 5:9A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
Gal 5:10I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.
Gal 5:11But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.
Gal 5:12I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves!
Gal 5:13For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another.
Gal 5:14For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
Gal 5:15But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.
Gal 5:16But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.
Gal 5:17For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would.
Gal 5:18But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law.
Gal 5:19Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,
Gal 5:20idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit,
Gal 5:21envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Gal 5:22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
Gal 5:23gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law.
Gal 5:24And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Gal 5:25If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
Gal 5:26Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another.
