Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

I am surprised that you are being so quickly turned away from him whose word came to you in the grace of Christ, to good news of a different sort;

But when it was the good pleasure of God, by whom I was marked out even from my mother's body, through his grace,

When they saw the grace which was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who had the name of being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas their right hands as friends so that we might go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;

I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.

I do not make the grace of God of no effect: because if righteousness is through the law, then Christ was put to death for nothing.

O foolish Galatians, by what strange powers have you been tricked, to whom it was made clear that Jesus Christ was put to death on the cross?

You are cut off from Christ, you who would have righteousness by the law; you are turned away from grace.

But I, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still attacked? then has the shame of the cross been taken away.

And those who are Christ's have put to death on the cross the flesh with its passions and its evil desires.

Those who have the desire to seem important in the flesh, put force on you to undergo circumcision; only that they may not be attacked because of the cross of Christ.

But far be it from me to have glory in anything, but only in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which this world has come to an end on the cross for me, and I for it.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. So be it.
