Galatians 5

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Christ has truly made us free: then keep your free condition and let no man put a yoke on you again.

2 See, I Paul say to you, that if you undergo circumcision, Christ will be of no use to you.

3 Yes, I give witness again to every man who undergoes circumcision, that he will have to keep all the law.

4 You are cut off from Christ, you who would have righteousness by the law; you are turned away from grace.

5 For we through the Spirit by faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

6 Because in Christ Jesus, having circumcision or not having circumcision are equally of no profit; but only faith working through love.

7 You were going on well; who was the cause of your not giving ear to what is true?

8 This ready belief did not come from him who had made you his.

9 A little leaven makes a change in all the mass.

10 I am certain about you in the Lord, that you will be of no other mind; but he who is troubling you will have his punishment, whoever he is.

11 But I, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still attacked? then has the shame of the cross been taken away.

12 My desire is that they who give you trouble might even be cut off themselves.

13 Because you, brothers, were marked out to be free; only do not make use of your free condition to give the flesh its chance, but through love be servants one to another.

14 For all the law is made complete in one word, even in this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

15 But if you are given to fighting with one another, take care that you are not the cause of destruction one to another.

16 But I say, Go on in the Spirit, and you will not come under the rule of the evil desires of the flesh.

17 For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.

18 But if you are guided by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

19 Now the works of the flesh are clear, which are these: evil desire, unclean things, wrong use of the senses,

20 Worship of images, use of strange powers, hates, fighting, desire for what another has, angry feelings, attempts to get the better of others, divisions, false teachings,

21 Envy, uncontrolled drinking and feasting, and such things: of which I give you word clearly, even as I did in the past, that they who do such things will have no part in the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith,

23 Gentle behaviour, control over desires: against such there is no law.

24 And those who are Christ's have put to death on the cross the flesh with its passions and its evil desires.

25 If we are living by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us be guided.

26 Let us not be full of self-glory, making one another angry, having envy of one another.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 For this “zman cheruteinu” (Pesach Haggadah Kiddush), Moshiach freed us; stand fast, therefore, and be not again bound by an ol (yoke) of avdut (slavery).

2 Hinei, I Sha’ul say to you, that if you Goyim undergo the bris milah, Moshiach will profit you nothing [3:12-14].

3 And I testify again to every one of you undergoing bris milah that such is chal (placed under obligation) to do the whole Torah.

4 You who want to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM ("justified with G-d") by chumra (legalism), [i.e., legal justification] by chukim of the Torah, are estranged from Moshiach, you at that point fall from the Chen v’Chesed Hashem.

5 For we by the Ruach Hakodesh eagerly await by emunah that for which we have tikvah, the Tzidkat Hashem (DANIEL 9:24).

6 For in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua neither bris milah is of any force nor the lack of it, but emunah working through ahavah (agape).

7 You [Goyim] were running well: who hindered you from being persuaded by HaEmes?

8 This persuasion is not of the One calling you.

9 A little chametz leavens all habatzek (the dough, T.N. see Pesach Haggadah).

10 I have bitachon, (confidence) in you in Adoneinu that you will think nothing other, but the one troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

11 But if I preach [to Goyim] the bris milah, Achim B’Moshiach, why am I still being persecuted? In that case, the michshol (stumbling block) of [Moshiach’s] Etz (3:12-14; DEVARIM 21:23) has been abolished.

12 O if the ones (the mohalim of Goyim) troubling you would castrate themselves!

13 For, Achim B’Moshiach, you were called for “zman Cheruteinu” (5:1); only use not the Cherut for a pretext for the basar, but, through ahavah (agape), minister to one another as avadim (servants).

14 For the entire Torah has been summed up in one word: V’AHAVTA L’RE’ACHA KAMOCHA ("Love your neighbor as yourself" VAYIKRA 19:18).

15 But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another.

16 But I say, let your halakhah be by the Ruach HaKodesh, and by no means will you carry out the ta’avot (lusts) of the basar.

17 For the basar desires against the Ruach HaKodesh, and the Ruach HaKodesh desires against the basar—for these oppose each other—with the result that the things you wish you cannot do (Ro chp 7).

18 But if by the Ruach HaKodesh you are led, you are not under [epoch of] Torah.

19 Now the ma’asei habasar are manifest, dehainu (being:) zenut (fornication), tum’ah (impurity), zimmah (licentiousness),

20 Avodah zarah (idolatry), kashefanut (sorcery, witchcraft), eivot (enmities), merivah (strife), kinah (jealousy), rogez (anger), anochiyut (selfishness), machalokot (dissensions), kitot (sects),

21 Tzarut ayin (envyings), shichrut (drunkenness), holelut (carousing) and things like these, of which I tell you beforehand, as I said previously, that the ones practicing such things will not receive the nachalah (inheritance) of the Malchut Hashem.

22 But the p’ri of the Ruach HaKodesh is ahavah (agape), simcha (joy), shalom (peace), zitzfleisch (patience), nedivut (generosity, kindness), chesed (loving-kindness), ne’emanut (faithfulness),

23 Anavah (meekness, shiflut, lowliness), shlitah atzmi (self-control)...would you not agree?—against these things there is no isser (proscription in the Torah).

24 But the ones who are mekabel Moshiach Yehoshua have put to be talui al HaEtz (hanging on the Tree, DEVARIM 21:23) the basar with its teshukot (desires) and its ta’avot (lusts).

25 If we live by the Ruach HaKodesh, we should stay in line with the Derech HaYashar (Straight Way) of the Ruach HaKodesh.

26 Let us not become ba’alei ga’avah (conceited, haughty persons), provoking one another, envying one another.
