Galatians 5
Reading Galatians chapter 5 in the Webster's Bible, public-domain text from 1833.
Verses 1–10
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I Paul say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4 Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are justified by the law; ye have fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
7 Ye did run well, who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth?
8 This persuasion [cometh] not from him that calleth you.
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be no otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whoever he may be.
