Murdock - Galatians - 5

5:1  Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty with which the Messiah hath made us free; and be not subjected again to the yoke of bondage.

5:2  Behold, I Paul say to you, That if ye become circumcised, the Messiah is of no advantage to you.

5:3  And again, I testify to every one who becometh circumcised, that he is bound to fulfill the whole law.

5:4  Ye have renounced the Messiah, ye who seek justification by the law: and ye have apostatized from grace.

5:5  For we, through the Spirit, which is from faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

5:6  For, in the Messiah Jesus, circumcision is nothing, neither is uncircumcision, but the faith that is perfected by love.

5:7  Ye did run well: who hath interrupted you, that ye acquiesce not in the truth?

5:8  The bias of your mind is not from him who called you.

5:9  A little leaven leaveneth the whole mass.

5:10  I confide in you through our Lord, that ye will entertain no other thoughts. And he that disquieteth you, shall bear his judgment, whoever he may be.

5:11  And I, my brethren, if I still preached circumcision, why should I suffer persecution? Hath the offensiveness of the cross ceased?

5:12  But I would, that they who disquiet you, were actually cut off.

5:13  And ye, my brethren, have been called into liberty: only let not your liberty be an occasion to the flesh; but, by love, be ye servants to each other.

5:14  For the whole law is fulfilled in one sentence; in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

5:15  But if ye bite and devour one another, beware, lest ye be consumed one by another.

5:16  And I say: Walk ye in the Spirit; and never follow the cravings of the flesh.

5:17  For the flesh craveth that which is repugnant to the Spirit; and the Spirit craveth that which is repugnant to the flesh: and the two are the opposites of each other, so that ye do not that which ye desire.

5:18  But if ye are guided by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

5:19  For the works of the flesh are known, which are whoredom, impurity, lasciviousness,

5:20  idol-worship, magic, malice, contention, rivalry, wrath, strife, divisions, discords,

5:21  envy, murder, drunkenness, revelling, and all the like things. And they who perpetrate these things, as I have before told you, and also now tell you, do not inherit the kingdom of God.

5:22  But the fruits of the Spirit are, love, joy, peace, long suffering, suavity, kindness, fidelity, modesty, patience.

5:23  Against these there standeth no law.

5:24  And they who are of the Messiah, have crucified their flesh, with all its passions and its cravings.

5:25  Let us therefore live in the Spirit; and let us press on after the Spirit.

5:26  And let us not be vain-glorious, despising one another, and envying one another.
