Galatians 5:12-16
12I wishG3785 that 1thoseG3588 who are troublingG387 you would evenG2532 23emasculateG609 themselves.
13For you were calledG2564 to 4freedomG1657, brothersG80 and sisters; 5onlyG3440 do not turn your freedomG1657 into an opportunityG874 for the fleshG4561, but 6serveG1398 oneG240 anotherG240 throughG1223 loveG26. 14For 7the wholeG3956 LawG3551 is fulfilledG4137 in oneG1520 wordG3056, in the statement, “8You shall loveG25 your neighborG4139 as yourselfG4572.” 15But ifG1487 you 9biteG1143 and devourG2719 oneG240 anotherG240, takeG991 careG991 that you are not consumedG355 by oneG240 anotherG240.
16But I sayG3004, 10walkG4043 by the SpiritG4151, and you will not carryG5055 outG5055 11the desireG1939 of the fleshG4561.
