Galatians 3:1-9

Common English Bible CEB

1 You irrational Galatians! Who put a spell on you? Jesus Christ was put on display as crucified before your eyes!

2 I just want to know this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the Law or by believing what you heard?

3 Are you so irrational? After you started with the Spirit, are you now finishing up with your own human effort?

4 Did you experience so much for nothing? I wonder if it really was for nothing.

5 So does the one providing you with the Spirit and working miracles among you do this by you doing the works of the Law or by you believing what you heard?

6 Understand that in the same way that Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness,

7 those who believe are the children of Abraham.

8 But when it saw ahead of time that God would make the Gentiles righteous on the basis of faith, scripture preached the gospel in advance to Abraham: All the Gentiles will be blessed in you.

9 Therefore, those who believe are blessed together with Abraham who believed.

1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly exhibited as crucified!

2 The only thing I want to learn from you is this: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the law or by believing what you heard?

3 Are you so foolish? Having started with the Spirit, are you now ending with the flesh?

4 Did you experience so much for nothing?—if it really was for nothing.

5 Well then, does God supply you with the Spirit and work miracles among you by your doing the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?

6 Just as Abraham "believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness,"

7 so, you see, those who believe are the descendants of Abraham.

8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, declared the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "All the Gentiles shall be blessed in you."

9 For this reason, those who believe are blessed with Abraham who believed.

Galatians 3:23-29

Common English Bible CEB

23 Before faith came, we were guarded under the Law, locked up until faith that was coming would be revealed,

24 so that the Law became our custodian until Christ so that we might be made righteous by faith.

25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian.

26 You are all God's children through faith in Christ Jesus.

27 All of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek; there is neither slave nor free; nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 Now if you belong to Christ, then indeed you are Abraham's descendants, heirs according to the promise.

New Revised Standard NRS

23 Now before faith came, we were imprisoned and guarded under the law until faith would be revealed.

24 Therefore the law was our disciplinarian until Christ came, so that we might be justified by faith.

25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer subject to a disciplinarian,

26 for in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.

27 As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

28 There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to the promise.
