ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,
 as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

 

 

1:1 Paul, an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus


  • Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
  • 1:2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches
  • of Galatia:
  • 1:3 Grace be] to you and peace from God the Father, and from]
  • our Lord Jesus Christ,
  • 1:4 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:
  • 1:5 To whom be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.
  • 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called
  • you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
  • 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you,
  • and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
  • 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other
  • gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let
  • him be accursed.
  • 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man] preach
  • any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be
  • accursed.
  • 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please
  • men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of
  • Christ.
  • 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was
  • preached of me is not after man.
  • 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it],
  • but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
  • 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the
  • Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church
  • of God, and wasted it:
  • 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in
  • mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the
  • traditions of my fathers.
  • 1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's
  • womb, and called me] by his grace,
  • 1:16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the
  • heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
  • 1:17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles
  • before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto
  • Damascus.
  • 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter,
  • and abode with him fifteen days.
  • 1:19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the
  • Lord's brother.
  • 1:20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God,
  • I lie not.
  • 1:21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
  • 1:22 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which
  • were in Christ:
  • 1:23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in
  • times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
  • 1:24 And they glorified God in me.
  • 2:1 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with
  • Barnabas, and took Titus with me] also.
  • 2:2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them
  • that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to
  • them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run,
  • or had run, in vain.
  • 2:3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was
  • compelled to be circumcised:
  • 2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
  • came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
  • Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
  • 2:5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour;
  • that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
  • 2:6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, whatsoever 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:
  • 2:7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the
  • uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel] of the
  • circumcision was] unto Peter;
  • 2:8 For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship
  • of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the
  • Gentiles:)
  • 2:9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars,
  • perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and
  • Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go] unto
  • the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
  • 2:10 Only they would] that we should remember the poor; the
  • same which I also was forward to do.
  • 2:11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the
  • face, because he was to be blamed.
  • 2:12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with
  • the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated
  • himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
  • 2:13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch
  • that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
  • 2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to
  • the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them] all, If
  • thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not
  • as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do
  • the Jews?
  • 2:15 We who are] Jews by nature, and not sinners of the
  • Gentiles,
  • 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the
  • law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in
  • Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ,
  • and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law
  • shall no flesh be justified.
  • 2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we
  • ourselves also are found sinners, is] therefore Christ the
  • minister of sin? God forbid.
  • 2:18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make
  • myself a transgressor.
  • 2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might
  • live unto God.
  • 2:20 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.
  • 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness
  • come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
  • 3:1 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?
  • 3:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by
  • the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
  • 3:3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now
  • made perfect by the flesh?
  • 3:4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be] yet in
  • vain.
  • 3:5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and
  • worketh miracles among you, doeth he it] by the works of the law,
  • or by the hearing of faith?
  • 3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him
  • for righteousness.
  • 3:7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same
  • are the children of Abraham.
  • 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the
  • heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham,
  • saying], In thee shall all nations be blessed.
  • 3:9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful
  • Abraham.
  • 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the
  • 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.
  • 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of
  • God, it is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
  • 3:12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them
  • shall live in them.
  • 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being
  • made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is] every one
  • that hangeth on a tree:
  • 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles
  • through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the
  • Spirit through faith.
  • 3:15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be]
  • but a man's covenant, yet if it be] confirmed, no man
  • disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
  • 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He
  • saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy
  • seed, which is Christ.
  • 3:17 And this I say, that] the covenant, that was confirmed
  • before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and
  • thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the
  • promise of none effect.
  • 3:18 For if the inheritance be] of the law, it is] no more of
  • promise: but God gave it] to Abraham by promise.
  • 3:19 Wherefore 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.
  • 3:20 Now a mediator is not a mediator] of one, but God is one.
  • 3:21 Is] the law then against the promises of God? God forbid:
  • for if there had been a law given which could have given life,
  • verily righteousness should have been by the law.
  • 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the
  • promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that
  • believe.
  • 3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up
  • unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
  • 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us] unto
  • Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
  • 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a
  • schoolmaster.
  • 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ
  • Jesus.
  • 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have
  • put on Christ.
  • 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor
  • free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in
  • Christ Jesus.
  • 3:29 And if ye be] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and
  • heirs according to the promise.
  • 4:1 Now I say, That] the heir, as long as he is a child,
  • differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
  • 4:2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed
  • of the father.
  • 4:3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under
  • the elements of the world:
  • 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth
  • his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
  • 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might
  • receive the adoption of sons.
  • 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of
  • his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
  • 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a
  • son, then an heir of God through Christ.
  • 4:8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto
  • them which by nature are no gods.
  • 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known
  • of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements,
  • whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
  • 4:10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
  • 4:11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour
  • in vain.
  • 4:12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am]; for I am] as ye are]:
  • ye have not injured me at all.
  • 4:13 Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the
  • gospel unto you at the first.
  • 4:14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not,
  • nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even] as
  • Christ Jesus.
  • 4:15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you
  • record, that, if it had been] possible, ye would have plucked
  • out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
  • 4:16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the
  • truth?
  • 4:17 They zealously affect you, but] not well; yea, they would
  • exclude you, that ye might affect them.
  • 4:18 But it is] good to be zealously affected always in a] good
  • thing], and not only when I am present with you.
  • 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until
  • Christ be formed in you,
  • 4:20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my
  • voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
  • 4:21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not
  • hear the law?
  • 4:22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a
  • bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
  • 4:23 But he who was] of the bondwoman was born after the flesh;
  • but he of the freewoman was] by promise.
  • 4:24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two
  • covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to
  • bondage, which is Agar.
  • 4:25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to
  • Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
  • 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother
  • of us all.
  • 4:27 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 which hath an husband.
  • 4:28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of
  • promise.
  • 4:29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted
  • him that was born] after the Spirit, even so it is] now.
  • 4:30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the
  • bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be
  • heir with the son of the freewoman.
  • 4:31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman,
  • but of the free.
  • 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath
  • made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of
  • bondage.
  • 5:2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised,
  • Christ shall profit you nothing.
  • 5:3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that
  • he is a debtor to do the whole law.
  • 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you
  • are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
  • 5:5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of
  • righteousness by faith.
  • 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing,
  • nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
  • 5:7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey
  • the truth?
  • 5:8 This persuasion cometh] not of him that calleth you.
  • 5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
  • 5:10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be
  • none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his
  • judgment, whosoever he be.
  • 5:11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I
  • yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.
  • 5:12 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
  • 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use]
  • not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one
  • another.
  • 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even] in this;
  • Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
  • 5:15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye
  • be not consumed one of another.
  • 5:16 This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not
  • fulfil the lust of the flesh.
  • 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit
  • against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other:
  • so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
  • 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
  • 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these];
  • Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
  • 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath,
  • strife, seditions, heresies,
  • 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like:
  • of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you] in time
  • past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the
  • kingdom of God.
  • 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
  • longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
  • 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
  • 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with
  • the affections and lusts.
  • 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
  • 5:26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one
  • another, envying one another.
  • 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are
  • spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness;
  • considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
  • 6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of
  • Christ.
  • 6:3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is
  • nothing, he deceiveth himself.
  • 6:4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he
  • have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
  • 6:5 For every man shall bear his own burden.
  • 6:6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him
  • that teacheth in all good things.
  • 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man
  • soweth, that shall he also reap.
  • 6:8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap
  • corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit
  • reap life everlasting.
  • 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we
  • shall reap, if we faint not.
  • 6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all
  • men], especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
  • 6:11 Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with
  • mine own hand.
  • 6:12 As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they
  • constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer
  • persecution for the cross of Christ.
  • 6:13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the
  • law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in
  • your flesh.
  • 6:14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of
  • our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me,
  • and I unto the world.
  • 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any
  • thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
  • 6:16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be] on
  • them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
  • 6:17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my
  • body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
  • 6:18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be] with your
  • spirit. Amen.
