I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live; no longer I, but Christ lives 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.

Thoughtless Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ has been plainly set forth crucified?

And this I affirm, that the covenant which had been before confirmed by God with respect to Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, could not annul so as to make the promise of no effect.

What, then, was the purpose of the law? It was added on account of transgressions, (till the offspring should come, to whom the promise was made,) having been appointed through the service of angels, in the hand of a mediator.

Is the law, then, against the promises of God? It can not be. For if a law had been given which could have given life, surely righteousness would have been by law.

to me, who am by far the least of all the saints, has this grace been given, that I might preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of the Christ,

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called;

There is one body and one Spirit, even as you have been called in one hope of your calling;

But grace has been given to each one of us, according to the measure of the gift of the Christ.

if, indeed, you have heard of him, and been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

and grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, with which you have been sealed for the day of redemption.

I know what it is to be in want, and what it is to have abundance. Everywhere and in all things, I have been fully instructed in being full and in being hungry, in having abundance and in being in want.

If, then, you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where the Christ sits at the right hand of God;

Jesus also, who is called Justus, salutes you: these are of the circumcision: and these only are my fellow-workers for the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.

But having suffered before, and having been outraged, as you know, in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God in the midst of great peril.

nor did we seek glory from men, neither from you nor from others; though we could have been burdensome as the apostles of Christ.

But we, brethren, having been taken from you for a short time, in person, not in heart, did, with great desire, endeavor the more earnestly to see your face.

Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which you have been taught, whether by word or by our letter.

according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which has been intrusted to me.

who gave himself a ransom for all, of which the testimony has been given in its proper times,

to give which testimony I have been appointed a preacher and an apostle; (I speak the truth, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faithfulness and in truth.

Let a widow be put on the list, if she is not under sixty years, having been the wife of one man,

Fight the good fight of the faith; lay hold on eternal life, to which you have been called, and for which you confessed the good confession before many witnesses.

In the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, to him that was able to save him from death, and having been heard with respect to that which he feared,

For it is impossible to renew again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit,

If, then, there had been a perfect expiation by means of the Levitical priesthood, (for with reference to it, the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should be raised up after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

And those priests, indeed, have been many, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office.

Now concerning the things that have been spoken, the principal point is this: We have such a high priest, who has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

For if that first covenant had been faultless, no place would have been sought for a second.

And if indeed they had been mindful of that from which they came, they could have had an opportunity to return.

And this prophecy, Yet once more, signifies the removing of the things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that the things which can not be shaken may remain.

Remember those who are in bonds, as if you yourselves had been bound, and those who suffer affliction, since you yourselves are in the body.

For every kind of beasts and of birds, of creeping things and of things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by man:

Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped your fields, which has been unjustly withheld by you, cries out: and the cries of those who have reaped, have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.

You have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; you have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

To this, indeed, you have been called; because even Christ suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his footsteps.

For Christ also once suffered for sins, the Just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, having been put to death in flesh, but made alive in spirit;

through which things very great and precious favors that were promised have been given us, that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through desire:
