O{G5599} foolish{G453} Galatians{G1052}, who{G5101} hath bewitched{G940}{(G5656)} you{G5209}, that ye should{G3982} not{G3361} obey{G3982}{(G5745)} the truth{G225}, before{G2596} whose{G3739} eyes{G3788} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} hath been evidently set forth{G4270}{(G5648)}, crucified{G4717}{(G5772)} among{G1722} you{G5213}?

This{G5124} only{G3440} would{G2309}{(G5719)} I learn{G3129}{(G5629)} of{G575} you{G5216}, Received ye{G2983}{(G5627)} 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}{(G5748)} so{G3779} foolish{G453}? having begun{G1728}{(G5666)} in the Spirit{G4151}, are ye{G2005} now{G3568} made perfect{G2005}{(G5727)} by the flesh{G4561}?

Have ye suffered{G3958}{(G5627)} so many things{G5118} in vain{G1500}? if it be yet{G1489}{G2532} in vain{G1500}.

He therefore{G3767} that ministereth{G2023}{(G5723)} to you{G5213} the Spirit{G4151}, and{G2532} worketh{G1754}{(G5723)} 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}{(G5656)} God{G2316}, and{G2532} it was accounted{G3049}{(G5681)} to him{G846} for{G1519} righteousness{G1343}.

Know ye{G1097}{(G5719)}{(G5720)} therefore{G686} that{G3754} they which are of{G1537} faith{G4102}, the same{G3778} are{G1526}{(G5748)} the children{G5207} of Abraham{G11}.

And{G1161} the scripture{G1124}, foreseeing{G4275}{(G5631)} that{G3754} God{G2316} would justify{G1344}{(G5719)} the heathen{G1484} through{G1537} faith{G4102}, preached before the gospel{G4283}{(G5662)} unto Abraham{G11}, saying,{G3754} In{G1722} thee{G4671} shall{G1757} all{G3956} nations{G1484} be blessed{G1757}{(G5701)}.

So then{G5620} they which be of{G1537} faith{G4102} are blessed{G2127}{(G5743)} with{G4862} faithful{G4103} Abraham{G11}.

For{G1063} as many as{G3745} are{G1526}{(G5748)} of{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551} are{G1526}{(G5748)} under{G5259} the curse{G2671}: for{G1063} it is written{G1125}{(G5769)}, Cursed{G1944} is every one{G3956} that{G3739} continueth{G1696}{(G5719)} not{G3756} in{G1722} all things{G3956} which{G3588} are written{G1125}{(G5772)} in{G1722} the book{G975} of the law{G3551} to do{G4160}{(G5658)} them{G846}.

But{G1161} that{G3754} no man{G3762} is justified{G1344}{(G5743)} by{G1722} the law{G3551} in the sight{G3844} of God{G2316}, it is evident{G1212}: for{G3754}, The just{G1342} shall live{G2198}{(G5695)} by{G1537} faith{G4102}.

And{G1161} the law{G3551} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} faith{G4102}: but{G235}, The man{G444} that doeth{G4160}{(G5660)} them{G846} shall live{G2198}{(G5695)} in{G1722} them{G846}.

Christ{G5547} hath redeemed{G1805}{(G5656)} us{G2248} from{G1537} the curse{G2671} of the law{G3551}, being made{G1096}{(G5637)} a curse{G2671} for{G5228} us{G2257}: for{G1063} it is written{G1125}{(G5769)}, Cursed{G1944} is every one{G3956} that hangeth{G2910}{(G5734)} on{G1909} a tree{G3586}:

That{G2443} the blessing{G2129} of Abraham{G11} might come{G1096}{(G5638)} on{G1519} the Gentiles{G1484} through{G1722} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547}; that{G2443} we might receive{G2983}{(G5632)} the promise{G1860} of the Spirit{G4151} through{G1223} faith{G4102}.

Brethren{G80}, I speak{G3004}{(G5719)} after the manner of{G2596} men{G444}; Though it be but{G3676} a man's{G444} covenant{G1242}, yet if it be confirmed{G2964}{(G5772)}, no man{G3762} disannulleth{G114}{(G5719)}, or{G2228} addeth thereto{G1928}{(G5736)}.

Now{G1161} to Abraham{G11} and{G2532} his{G846} seed{G4690} were{G4483} the promises{G1860} made{G4483}{(G5681)}. He saith{G3004}{(G5719)} not{G3756}, And{G2532} to seeds{G4690}, as{G5613} of{G1909} many{G4183}; but{G235} as{G5613} of{G1909} one{G1520}, And{G2532} to thy{G4675} seed{G4690}, which{G3739} is{G2076}{(G5748)} Christ{G5547}.

And{G1161} this{G5124} I say{G3004}{(G5719)}, that the covenant{G1242}, that was confirmed before{G4300}{(G5772)} of{G5259} God{G2316} in{G1519} Christ{G5547}, the law{G3551}, which was{G1096}{(G5756)} four hundred{G5071} and{G2532} thirty{G5144} years{G2094} after{G3326}, cannot{G3756} disannul{G208}{(G5719)}, that{G1519} it should make{G2673} the promise{G1860} of none effect{G2673}{(G5658)}.

For{G1063} if{G1487} the inheritance{G2817} be of{G1537} the law{G3551}, it is no more{G3765} of{G1537} promise{G1860}: but{G1161} God{G2316} gave{G5483}{(G5766)} it to Abraham{G11} by{G1223} promise{G1860}.

Wherefore{G5101} then{G3767} serveth the law{G3551}? It was added{G4369}{(G5681)} because of{G5484} transgressions{G3847}, till{G891}{G3739} the seed{G4690} should come{G2064}{(G5632)} to whom{G3739} the promise was made{G1861}{(G5766)}; and it was ordained{G1299}{(G5651)} by{G1223} angels{G32} in{G1722} the hand{G5495} of a mediator{G3316}.

Now{G1161} a mediator{G3316} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} a mediator of one{G1520}, but{G1161} God{G2316} is{G2076}{(G5748)} one{G1520}.

Is the law{G3551} then{G3767} against{G2596} the promises{G1860} of God{G2316}? God forbid{G3361}{G1096}{(G5636)}: for{G1063} if{G1487} there had been{G1325} a law{G3551} given{G1325}{(G5681)} which{G3588} could{G1410}{(G5740)} have given life{G2227}{(G5658)}, verily{G3689} righteousness{G1343} should{G302} have been{G2258}{(G5713)} by{G1537} the law{G3551}.

But{G235} the scripture{G1124} hath concluded{G4788}{(G5656)} all{G3956} under{G5259} sin{G266}, that{G2443} the promise{G1860} by{G1537} faith{G4102} of Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} might be given{G1325}{(G5686)} to them that believe{G4100}{(G5723)}.

But{G1161} before{G4253} faith{G4102} came{G2064}{(G5629)}, we were kept{G5432}{(G5712)} under{G5259} the law{G3551}, shut up{G4788}{(G5772)} unto{G1519} the faith{G4102} which should afterwards{G3195}{(G5723)} be revealed{G601}{(G5683)}.

Wherefore{G5620} the law{G3551} was{G1096}{(G5754)} our{G2257} schoolmaster{G3807} to bring us unto{G1519} Christ{G5547}, that{G2443} we might be justified{G1344}{(G5686)} by{G1537} faith{G4102}.

But{G1161} after that faith{G4102} is come{G2064}{(G5631)}, we are{G2070}{(G5748)} no longer{G2089}{G3765} under{G5259} a schoolmaster{G3807}.

For{G1063} ye are{G2075}{(G5748)} all{G3956} the children{G5207} of God{G2316} by{G1223} faith{G4102} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus{G2424}.

For{G1063} as many of you as{G3745} have been baptized{G907}{(G5681)} into{G1519} Christ{G5547} have put on{G1746}{(G5668)} Christ{G5547}.

There is{G1762}{(G5748)} neither{G3756} Jew{G2453} nor{G3761} Greek{G1672}, there is{G1762}{(G5748)} neither{G3756} bond{G1401} nor{G3761} free{G1658}, there is{G1762}{(G5748)} neither{G3756} male{G730} nor{G2532} female{G2338}: for{G1063} ye{G5210} are{G2075}{(G5748)} all{G3956} one{G1520} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} Jesus{G2424}.

And{G1161} if{G1487} ye{G5210} be Christ's{G5547}, then{G686} are ye{G2075}{(G5748)} Abraham's{G11} seed{G4690}, and{G2532} heirs{G2818} according{G2596} to the promise{G1860}.
