For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

Knowing, that he who raised the Lord Jesus, will raise us also by Jesus, and will present us with you.

Now he that hath wrought us for this same thing is God, who also hath given to us the earnest of the Spirit.

For we commend not ourselves again to you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them who glory in appearance, and not in heart.

And that he died for all, that they who live should not henceforth live to themselves, but to him who died for them, and rose again.

And all things are from God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

And in this I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.

But thanks be to God, who put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

And not that only, but who was also chosen by the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:

And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have often proved to be diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which I have in you.

But this I say, He who soweth sparingly, shall reap also sparingly; and he who soweth bountifully, shall reap also bountifully.

And by their prayer for you, who long after you, for the exceeding grace of God in you.

Now I Paul myself beseech you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold towards you:

But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence, with which I think to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so will I keep myself.

But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them who desire occasion; that in what they glory, they may be found even as we.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is made to fall into sin, and I burn not?

The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent to you?

And lest, when I come again, my God may humble me among you, and I shall bewail many who have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness, and lewdness, and lasciviousness, which they have committed.

I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them who heretofore have sinned, and to all others, that, if I come again, I will not spare;

Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, who toward you is not weak, but is mighty in you.

Paul, an apostle, (not from men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)

And all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:

Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,

Neither did I go to Jerusalem to them who were apostles before me: but I went into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

But they had heard only, That he who persecuted us in times past, now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.

And I went by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them who were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run in vain.

But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:

And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

But of these, who seemed to be somewhat, (whatever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat, in conference added nothing to me:

And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go to the heathen, and they to the circumcision.

For before that certain came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles: but when they had come, he withdrew, and separated himself, fearing them who were of the circumcision.

We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

Know ye therefore, that they who are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

So then they who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

What purpose then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

My little children, of whom I travail in birth again, until Christ be formed in you,

But he who was of the bond-woman, was born according to the flesh; but he of the free-woman was by promise.

For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she who hath a husband.

Ye did run well, who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth?

I would they were even cut off who trouble you.

Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like: of which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

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

As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially to them who are of the household of faith.

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

But may it never be that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

In whom ye also trusted, after ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

And what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

And you hath he revived, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Among whom also we all had our manner of life in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

But now, in Christ Jesus, ye, who formerly were far off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

And came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

In whom all the building fitly framed together, groweth to a holy temple in the Lord:

In whom ye also are built together, for a habitation of God through the Spirit.

To me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him,

Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, even Christ:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body to the edifying of itself in love.

Who being past feeling have given themselves over to lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

For this ye know, that no lewd, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Whom I have sent to you for the same purpose, that ye may know our affairs, and that he may comfort your hearts.

Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

Being confident of this very thing, that he who hath begun a good work in you, will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

For it is God who worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

For I have no man like-minded, who will naturally care for your state.

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.

Yes doubtless, and I count all things to be loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them to be dung, that I may win Christ,

Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them who walk so as ye have us for an example.

(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)

Who will change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like to his glorious body, according to the working by which he is able even to subdue all things to himself.

And I entreat thee also, true yoke-fellow, help those women who labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellow-laborers, whose names are in the book of life.

I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me.

Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you.

To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colosse: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

As ye also learned from Epaphras our dear fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;

Who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.

Giving thanks to the Father, who hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
