Galatians 5:1-12

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

1 Christ has liberated us into freedom. Therefore stand firm and don't submit again to a yoke of slavery.

2 Take note! I, Paul, tell you that if you get circumcised, Christ will not benefit you at all.

3 Again I testify to every man who gets circumcised that he is obligated to keep the entire law.

4 You who are trying to be justified by the law are alienated from Christ; you have fallen from grace!

5 For by the Spirit we eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness from faith.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision accomplishes anything; what matters is faith working through love.

7 You were running well. Who prevented you from obeying the truth?

8 This persuasion did not come from Him who called you.

9 A little yeast leavens the whole lump of dough.

10 In the Lord I have confidence in you that you will not accept any other view. But whoever it is who is troubling you will pay the penalty.

11 Now brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.

12 I wish those who are disturbing you might also get themselves castrated!

4 You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

5 For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

7 You were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep you from obeying the truth?

8 That kind of persuasion does not come from the one who calls you.

9 “A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.”

10 I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion, whoever that may be, will have to pay the penalty.

11 Brothers and sisters, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.

12 As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!
