Galatians 5:1–12

aStand fast therefore in bthe liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with cthe yoke dof bondage. 2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that eif ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, fthat he is a debtor to do the whole law. 4 gChrist is hbecome of no effect unto you, gwhosoever of you are justified by the law; iye are fallen from grace. 5 For we through the Spirit kwait for the hope of righteousness by faith. 6 lFor in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but mfaith nwhich worketh by love. 7 Ye odid run well; ||who did phinder you qthat ye should not obey the truth? 8 This persuasion cometh not of rhim that calleth you. 9 sA little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. 10 tI have confidence in you through the Lord, that uye will be none otherwise minded: but whe that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. 11 And I, brethren, xif I yet preach circumcision, ywhy do I yet suffer persecution? then zis the offence of the cross hceased. 12 aI would they were even bcut off which ctrouble you.
