and all the brethren that are with me, to the churches of Galatia:

I marvel that ye are so soon turning from him that called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel;

which is not another; only there are certain persons who are troubling you, and seeking to change entirely the gospel of Christ.

We are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the gentiles;

But while seeking to be accepted as righteous in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Far be it!

Are ye so foolish? Having begun with the Spirit, do ye now end with the flesh?

Know then that they who have faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

So then they who have faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

For as many as rely on the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the Law, to do them."

but faith having come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

For ye are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus;

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is no male and female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus;

and if ye belong to Christ, then are ye Abrahams offspring, heirs according to the promise.

And to show that ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father!

But at that time, indeed, when ye knew not God, ye were in slavery to those who in their nature are not gods;

but now, after having known God, or rather having been known by God, how is it that ye are turning back to the weak and beggarly rudiments to which ye wish to be again in bondage?

Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as ye are; ye injured me in nothing.

Which things are written allegorically; for these women are two covenants; the one from Mount Sinai, who beareth children into bondage, which is Hagar;

For it is written: "Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not; for many are the children of the desolate one, rather than of her who hath the husband."

But ye, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of a promise.

So then, brethren, we are not children of a bondwoman, but of the freewoman.

Behold, I Paul say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing;

Ye are entirely separated from Christ, who seek to obtain righteousness through the Law; ye have fallen away from grace.

But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the Law.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest; such as fornication, uncleanness, wantonness,

Brethren, even if a man be detected in a fault, do ye who are spiritual restore such a one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, these are constraining you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
