Galatians 5:11-21 (New American Standard)
View In My Bible
11
But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still 1persecuted ? Then 2the stumbling block of the cross has been abolished.
12
I wish that 3those who are troubling you would even a4mutilate themselves.
13
For you were called to 5freedom, brethren ; 6only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love 7serve one another.
14
For 8the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "9YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."
15
But if you 10bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.
16
But I say, 11walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out 12the desire of the flesh.
17
For 13the flesh bsets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh ; for these are in opposition to one another, 14so that you may not do the things that you cplease.
18
But if you are 15led by the Spirit, 16you are not under the Law.
19
Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: d17immorality, impurity, sensuality,
20
idolatry, 18sorcery, enmities, 19strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, 20disputes, dissensions, e21factions,
21
envying, 22drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not 23inherit the kingdom of God.
