Chapter 5
1It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.
(Hebrew unavailable)
2Take notice: I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.
(Hebrew unavailable)
3Again I testify to every man who gets himself circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.
(Hebrew unavailable)
4You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
(Hebrew unavailable)
5But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the hope of righteousness.
(Hebrew unavailable)
6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. What matters is faith expressing itself through love.
(Hebrew unavailable)
7You were running so well. Who has obstructed you from obeying the truth?
(Hebrew unavailable)
8Such persuasion does not come from the One who calls you.
(Hebrew unavailable)
9A little leaven works through the whole batch of dough.
(Hebrew unavailable)
10I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.
(Hebrew unavailable)
11Now, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.
(Hebrew unavailable)
12As for those who are agitating you, I wish they would proceed to emasculate themselves!
(Hebrew unavailable)
13For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love.
(Hebrew unavailable)
14The entire law is fulfilled in a single decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
15But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.
(Hebrew unavailable)
16So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
(Hebrew unavailable)
17For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you want.
(Hebrew unavailable)
18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
(Hebrew unavailable)
19The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery;
(Hebrew unavailable)
20idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions,
(Hebrew unavailable)
21and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
(Hebrew unavailable)
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
(Hebrew unavailable)
23gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
(Hebrew unavailable)
24Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
(Hebrew unavailable)
25Since we live by the Spirit, let us walk in step with the Spirit.
(Hebrew unavailable)
26Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying one another.
(Hebrew unavailable)
