Galatians 5:2-12

2BeholdG2396 I, 1PaulG3972, sayG3004 to you that ifG1437 you receiveG4059 2circumcisionG4059, ChristG5547 will be of noG3762 benefitG5623 to you. 3And I 3testifyG3143 againG3825 to everyG3956 manG444 who receivesG4059 4circumcisionG4059, that he is underG3781 obligationG3781 to 5keepG4160 the wholeG3650 LawG3551. 4You have been severedG2673 from ChristG5547, you whoG3748 6are seeking to be justifiedG1344 by lawG3551; you have 7fallenG1601 from graceG5485. 5For we 8through the SpiritG4151, 9by faithG4102, are 10waitingG553 for the hopeG1680 of righteousnessG1343. 6For in 11ChristG5547 JesusG2424 12neitherG3777 circumcisionG4061 norG3777 uncircumcisionG203 meansG2480 anythingG5100, but 13faithG4102 workingG1754 throughG1223 loveG26.

7You were 14runningG5143 wellG2573; whoG5101 hinderedG1465 you from obeyingG3982 the truthG225? 8ThisG3588 persuasionG3988 did not come from 15Him who callsG2564 you. 916A littleG3398 leavenG2219 leavensG2220 the wholeG3650 lumpG5445 of dough. 1017I haveG3982 confidenceG3982 18in you in the LordG2962 that you 19will adoptG5426 noG3762 otherG243 viewG5426; but the one who is 20disturbingG5015 you will bearG941 his judgmentG2917, whoeverG3748G1437 he is. 11But I, brethrenG80, ifG1487 I stillG2089 preachG2784 circumcisionG4061, whyG5101 am I stillG2089 21persecutedG1377? ThenG686 22the stumblingG4625 blockG4625 of the crossG4716 has been abolishedG2673. 12I wishG3785 that 23thoseG3588 who are troublingG387 you would evenG2532 2425mutilateG609 themselves.
