Galatians 5:1-13 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

1. Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall 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 unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; you are fallen from grace.

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

6. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love.

7. You did run well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth?

8. This persuasion comes not of him that calls you.

9. A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

10. I have confidence in you through the Lord, that you will not be otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.

11. And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offense of the cross ceased.

12. I would they were even cut off who trouble you.

13. For, brethren, you have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
