O{G5599} foolish{G453} Galatians,{G1052} who{G5101} did bewitch{G940} you,{G5209} before{G2596} whose{G3739} eyes{G3788} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} was openly set forth{G4270} crucified?{G4717}

This{G5124} only{G3440} would{G2309} I learn{G3129} from{G575} you.{G5216} Received ye{G2983} the Spirit{G4151} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law,{G3551} or{G2228} by{G1537} the hearing{G189} of faith?{G4102}

Are ye{G2075} so{G3779} foolish?{G453} having begun{G1728} in the Spirit,{G4151} are ye{G2005} now{G3568} perfected{G2005} in the flesh?{G4561}

Did ye suffer{G3958} so many things{G5118} in vain?{G1500} if{G1489} it be indeed{G2532} in vain.{G1500}

He{G2023} therefore{G3767} that{G3588} supplieth{G2023} to you{G5213} the Spirit,{G4151} and{G2532} worketh{G1754} miracles{G1411} among{G1722} you,{G5213} [doeth he it] by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law,{G3551} or{G2228} by{G1537} the hearing{G189} of faith?{G4102}

Even as{G2531} Abraham{G11} believed{G4100} God,{G2316} and{G2532} it was reckoned{G3049} unto him{G846} for{G1519} righteousness.{G1343}

Know therefore{G686} that{G3754} they that{G3754} are{G3588} of{G1537} faith,{G4102} the same{G3778} are{G1526} sons of{G5207} Abraham.{G1097}

And{G1161} the scripture,{G1124} foreseeing{G4275} that{G3754} God{G2316} would justify{G1344} the Gentiles{G1484} by{G1537} faith,{G4102} preached the gospel{G4283} beforehand unto Abraham,{G11} [saying,]{G3754} In{G1722} thee{G4671} shall{G2127} all{G3956} the nations{G1484} be blessed.{G2127}

So then{G5620} they{G2127} that are{G3588} of{G1537} faith{G4102} are blessed{G2127} with{G4862} the faithful{G4103} Abraham.{G11}

For{G1063} as many as{G3745} are{G1526} of{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551} are{G1526} under{G5259} a curse:{G2671} for{G1063} it is written,{G1125} Cursed{G1944} is every one{G3956} who{G3588} continueth{G1696} not{G3756} in{G1722} all things{G3956} that{G3739} are written{G1125} in{G1722} the book{G975} of the law,{G3551} to do{G4160} them.{G846}

Now{G1161} that{G3754} no man{G3762} is justified{G1344} by{G1722} the law{G3551} before{G3844} God,{G2316} is evident:{G1212} for,{G3754} The righteous{G1342} shall live{G2198} by{G1537} faith;{G4102}

and{G1161} the law{G3551} is{G2076} not{G3756} of{G1537} faith;{G4102} but,{G235} He{G444} that doeth{G4160} them{G846} shall live{G2198} in{G1722} them.{G846}

Christ{G5547} redeemed{G1805} us{G2248} from{G1537} the curse{G2671} of the law,{G3551} having become{G1096} a curse{G2671} for{G5228} us;{G2257} for{G1063} it is written,{G1125} Cursed{G1944} is every one{G3956} that{G3588} hangeth{G2910} on{G1909} a tree:{G3586}

that{G2443} upon{G1519} the Gentiles{G1484} might come{G1096} the blessing{G2129} of Abraham{G11} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus;{G2424} that{G2443} we might receive{G2983} the promise{G1860} of the Spirit{G4151} through{G1223} faith.{G4102}

Brethren,{G80} I speak{G3004} after the manner of{G2596} men:{G444} Though{G3676} it be but{G3676} a man's{G444} covenant,{G1242} yet when it hath been confirmed,{G2964} no one{G3762} maketh it void,{G114} or{G2228} addeth thereto.{G1928}

Now{G1161} to Abraham{G11} were{G4483} the promises{G1860} spoken,{G4483} and{G2532} to his{G846} seed.{G4690} He saith{G3004} not,{G3756} And{G2532} to seeds,{G4690} as{G5613} of{G1909} many;{G4183} but{G235} as{G5613} of{G1909} one,{G1520} And{G2532} to{G4690} thy{G4675} seed,{G4690} which{G3739} is{G2076} Christ.{G5547}

Now{G1161} this{G5124} I say:{G3004} A covenant{G1242} confirmed beforehand{G4300} by{G5259} God,{G2316} {G1519} {G5547} the law,{G3551} which{G3588} came{G1096} four hundred{G5071} and{G2532} thirty{G5144} years{G2094} after,{G3326} doth not{G3756} disannul,{G1519} so as to{G3588} make{G2673} the promise{G1860} of none effect.{G2673}

For{G1063} if{G1487} the inheritance{G2817} is of{G1537} the law,{G3551} it is no more{G3765} of{G1537} promise:{G1860} but{G1161} God{G2316} hath granted{G5483} it to Abraham{G11} by{G1223} promise.{G1860}

What{G5101} then{G3767} is the law?{G3551} It was added{G4369} because{G5484} of transgressions,{G3847} till{G891} {G3739} the seed{G4690} should come{G2064} to whom{G3739} the promise hath been made;{G1861} [and it was] ordained{G1299} through{G1223} angels{G32} by{G1722} the hand{G5495} of a mediator.{G3316}

Now{G1161} a mediator{G3316} is{G2076} not{G3756} [a mediator] of one;{G1520} but{G1161} God{G2316} is{G2076} one.{G1520}

Is the law{G3551} then{G3767} against{G2596} the promises{G1860} of God?{G3361} God forbid:{G1096} for{G1063} if{G1487} there had been{G1325} a law{G3551} given{G1325} which{G3588} could make{G1410} alive,{G2227} verily{G3689} {G302} righteousness{G1343} would have been{G2258} of{G1537} the law.{G3551}

But{G235} the scriptures{G1124} shut up{G4788} all{G3956} things under{G5259} sin,{G266} that{G2443} the promise{G1860} by{G1537} faith{G4102} in Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} might be given{G1325} to them that{G3588} believe.{G4100}

But{G1161} before{G4253} faith{G4102} came,{G2064} we were kept{G5432} in ward under{G5259} the law,{G3551} shut up{G4788} unto{G1519} the faith{G4102} which{G3588} should afterwards{G3195} be revealed.{G601}

So{G5620} that the law{G3551} is become{G1096} our{G2257} tutor{G3807} [to bring us] unto{G1519} Christ,{G5547} that{G2443} we might be justified{G1344} by{G1537} faith.{G4102}

But{G1161} now that{G3588} faith{G4102} is come,{G2064} we are{G2070} no longer{G3765} under{G5259} a tutor.{G3807}

For{G1063} ye are{G2075} all{G3956} sons{G5207} of God,{G2316} through{G1223} faith,{G4102} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus.{G2424}

For{G1063} as many{G3745} of you{G907} as{G3745} were baptized{G907} into{G1519} Christ{G5547} did put on{G1746} Christ.{G5547}

There can be{G1762} neither{G3756} Jew{G2453} nor{G3761} Greek,{G1672} there can be{G1762} neither{G3756} bond{G1401} nor{G3761} free,{G1658} there can be{G1762} no{G3756} male{G730} and{G2532} female;{G2338} for{G1063} ye{G5210} all{G3956} are{G2075} one{G1520} [man] in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus.{G2424}

And{G1161} if{G1487} ye{G5210} are Christ's,{G5547} then{G686} are ye{G2075} Abraham's{G11} seed,{G4690} {G2532} heirs{G2818} according to{G2596} promise.{G1860}
