Galatians 5:13-24

13For you were calledG2564 to 1freedomG1657, brethrenG80; 2onlyG3440 do not turn your freedomG1657 into an opportunityG874 for the fleshG4561, but throughG1223 loveG26 3serveG1398 oneG240 anotherG240. 14For 4the wholeG3956 LawG3551 is fulfilledG4137 in oneG1520 wordG3056, in the statement, “5You shall loveG25 your neighborG4139 as yourselfG4572.” 15But ifG1487 you 6biteG1143 and devourG2719 oneG240 anotherG240, takeG991 careG991 that you are not consumedG355 by oneG240 anotherG240.

16But I sayG3004, 7walkG4043 by the SpiritG4151, and you will not carryG5055 out 8the desireG1939 of the fleshG4561. 17For 9the fleshG4561 10setsG1937 its desireG1937 againstG2596 the SpiritG4151, and the SpiritG4151 againstG2596 the fleshG4561; for theseG3778 are in oppositionG480 to oneG240 anotherG240, 11soG2443 that you may not doG4160 the things that you 12pleaseG2309. 18But ifG1487 you are 13ledG71 by the SpiritG4151, 14you are not underG5259 the LawG3551. 19NowG1161 the deedsG2041 of the fleshG4561 are evidentG5318, whichG3748 are: 1516immoralityG4202, impurityG167, sensualityG766, 20idolatryG1495, 17sorceryG5331, enmitiesG2189, 18strifeG2054, jealousyG2205, outburstsG2372 of angerG2372, 19disputesG2052, dissensionsG1370, 2021factionsG139, 21envyingG5355, 22drunkennessG3178, carousingG2970, and things likeG3664 theseG3778, of whichG3739 I forewarnG4302 you, justG2531 as I have forewarnedG4275 you, that thoseG3588 who practiceG4238 suchG5108 thingsG5108 will not 23inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. 22But 24the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is 25loveG26, joyG5479, peaceG1515, patienceG3115, kindnessG5544, goodnessG19, faithfulnessG4102, 23gentlenessG4240, 26self-controlG1466; againstG2596 suchG5108 thingsG5108 27there is noG3756 lawG3551. 24NowG1161 thoseG3588 who 28belong to 29ChristG5547 JesusG2424 have 30crucifiedG4717 the fleshG4561 with its passionsG3804 and 31desiresG1939.
