| # Chapter 5
| Christ has set us free in freedom; stand fast therefore, and be not held again in a yoke of bondage.
| Behold, I, Paul, say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
| And I witness again to every man [who is] circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law.
| Ye are deprived of all profit from the Christ as separated [from him], as many as are justified by law; ye have fallen from grace.
| For we, by [the] Spirit, on the principle of faith, await the hope of righteousness.
| For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any force, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.
| Ye ran well; who has stopped you that ye should not obey the truth?
| The persuasibleness [is] not of him that calls you.
| A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
| I have confidence as to you in [the] Lord, that ye will have no other mind; and he that is troubling you shall bear the guilt [of it], whosoever he may be.
| But I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? Then the scandal of the cross has been done away.
| I would that they would even cut themselves off who throw you into confusion.
| For ye have been called to liberty, brethren; only [do] not [turn] liberty into an opportunity to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
| For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;
| but if ye bite and devour one another, see that ye are not consumed one of another.
| But I say, Walk in [the] Spirit, and ye shall no way fulfil flesh's lust.
| For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are opposed one to the other, that ye should not do those things which ye desire;
| but if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under law.
| Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
| idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strifes, jealousies, angers, contentions, disputes, schools of opinion,
| envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revels, and things like these; as to which I tell you beforehand, even as I also have said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit God's kingdom.
| But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,
| meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law.
| But they that [are] of the Christ have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts.
| If we live by the Spirit, let us walk also by the Spirit.
| Let us not become vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
