The next file is: GALATIANS    
1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not from men, neither by man, but by
 Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the
 dead;)
1:2 And all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of
 Galatia:
1:3 Grace [be] to you and peace from God the Father, and [from]
 our Lord Jesus Christ,
1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from
 this present evil world, according to the will of God and our
 Father:
1:5 To whom [be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called
 you into the grace of Christ, to another gospel:
1:7 Which is not another; but there are some that trouble you,
 and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach any
 other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you,
 let him be accursed.
1:9 As we said before, so I say now again, If any [man]
 preacheth any other gospel to you than that ye have received,
 let him be accursed.
1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please
 men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of
 Christ.
1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was
 preached by me is not according to man.
1:12 For I neither received it from man, neither was I taught
 [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1:13 For ye have heard of my manner of life in time past in the
 Jews' religion, that beyond measure I persecuted the church of
 God, and wasted it;
1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in
 my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions
 of my fathers.
1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's
 womb, and called [me] by his grace,
1:16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the
 heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
1:17 Neither did I go to Jerusalem to them who were apostles
 before me: but I went into Arabia, and returned again to
 Damascus.
1:18 Then after three years I went to Jerusalem to see Peter,
 and abode with him fifteen days.
1:19 But I saw no other of the apostles, save James the Lord's
 brother.
1:20 Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I
 lie not.
1:21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
1:22 And was unknown by face to the churches of Judea which were
 in Christ:
1:23 But they had heard only, That he who persecuted us in times
 past, now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
1:24 And they glorified God in me.
2:1 Then fourteen years after I went again to Jerusalem with
 Barnabas, and took Titus with [me] also.
2:2 And I went by revelation, and communicated to them that
 gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them
 who were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had
 run in vain.
2:3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was
 compelled to be circumcised:
2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
 came in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in
 Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
2:5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour;
 that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
2:6 But of these, who seemed to be somewhat, (whatever they
 were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's
 person:) for they who seemed [to be somewhat], in conference
 added nothing to me:
2:7 But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel of the
 uncircumcision was committed to me, as [the gospel] of the
 circumcision [was] to Peter;
2:8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship
 of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me towards the
 Gentiles:)
2:9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars,
 perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave to me and
 Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] to
 the heathen, and they to the circumcision.
2:10 Only [they would] that we should remember the poor; the
 same which I also was forward to do.
2:11 But when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to the
 face, because he was to be blamed.
2:12 For before that certain came from James, he used to eat
 with the Gentiles: but when they had come, he withdrew, and
 separated himself, fearing them who were of the circumcision.
2:13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; so that
 Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to
 the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before [them] all, If
 thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not
 as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do
 the Jews?
2:15 We [who are] Jews by nature, and not sinners of the
 Gentiles,
2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the
 law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in
 Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ,
 and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law
 shall no flesh be justified.
2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we
 ourselves also are found sinners, [is] therefore Christ the
 minister of sin? By no means.
2:18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make
 myself a transgressor.
2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I may live
 to God.
2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not
 I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in
 the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me,
 and gave himself for me.
2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness
 is [attainable] by the law, then Christ hath died in vain.
3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should
 not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been
 evidently set forth, crucified among you?
3:2 This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by
 the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3:3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now
 made perfect by the flesh?
3:4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if [it is] yet in
 vain.
3:5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh
 miracles among you, [doeth he this] by the works of the law, or
 by the hearing of faith?
3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him
 for righteousness.
3:7 Know ye therefore, that they who are of faith, the same are
 the children of Abraham.
3:8 And the scripture foreseeing that God would justify the
 heathen through faith, preached before the gospel to Abraham,
 [saying], In thee shall all nations be blessed.
3:9 So then they who are of faith are blessed with faithful
 Abraham.
3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law, are under the
 curse: for it is written, Accursed [is] every one that
 continueth not in all things which are written in the book of
 the law to do them.
3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of
 God, [is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
3:12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them
 shall live by them.
3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being
 made a curse for us: for it is written, Accursed [is] every one
 that hangeth on a tree:
3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles
 through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the
 Spirit through faith.
3:15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it is but
 a man's covenant, yet [if it is] confirmed, no man disannulleth
 or addeth to it.
3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He
 saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy
 seed, which is Christ.
3:17 And this I say, [that] the covenant that was confirmed
 before by God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and
 thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the
 promise of no effect.
3:18 For if the inheritance [is] by the law, [it is] no more by
 promise: but God gave [it] to Abraham by promise.
3:19 What purpose then [serveth] the law? It was added because
 of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the
 promise was made; [and it was] ordained by angels in the hand
 of a mediator.
3:20 Now a mediator is not a [mediator] of one; but God is one.
3:21 [Is] the law then against the promises of God? By no means:
 for if there had been a law given which could give life, verily
 righteousness would have been by the law.
3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the
 promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that
 believe.
3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up
 to the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
3:24 Wherefore the law was our school-master [to bring us] to
 Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
3:25 But after faith is come, we are no longer under a
 school-master.
3:26 For ye are all children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ, have
 put on Christ.
3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor
 free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in
 Christ Jesus.
3:29 And if ye [are] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and
 heirs according to the promise.
4:1 Now I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child,
 differeth nothing from a servant, though he is lord of all;
4:2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed
 by the father.
4:3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the
 elements of the world:
4:4 But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth
 his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might
 receive the adoption of sons.
4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of
 his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a
 son, then an heir of God through Christ.
4:8 However then, when ye knew not God, ye did service to them
 which by nature are no gods.
4:9 But now, after ye have known God, or rather are known by
 God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, to
 which ye desire again to be in bondage?
4:10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
4:11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in
 vain.
4:12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I [am] as ye
 [are]: ye have not injured me at all.
4:13 Ye know that in infirmity of the flesh I preached the
 gospel to you at the first.
4:14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not,
 nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, [even] as
 Christ Jesus.
4:15 What then was the blessedness ye spoke of; for I bear you
 testimony, that, if [it had been] possible, ye would have
 plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
4:16 Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the
 truth?
4:17 They zealously affect you, [but] not well; for, they would
 exclude you, that ye may affect them.
4:18 But [it is] good to be zealously affected always in [a]
 good [thing], and not only when I am present with you.
4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again, until
 Christ be formed in you,
4:20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my
 voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
4:21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear
 the law?
4:22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons; the one by a
 bond-maid, the other by a free-woman.
4:23 But he [who was] of the bond-woman, was born according to
 the flesh; but he of the free-woman [was] by promise.
4:24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two
 covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to
 bondage, which is Agar.
4:25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to
 Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother
 of us all.
4:27 For it is written, Rejoice, [thou] barren that bearest not;
 break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate
 hath many more children than she who hath a husband.
4:28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of
 promise.
4:29 But as then he that was born according to the flesh
 persecuted him [that was born] according to the Spirit, even so
 [it is] now.
4:30 Nevertheless, what saith the scripture? Cast out the
 bond-woman and her son: for the son of the bond-woman shall not
 be heir with the son of the free-woman.
4:31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bond-woman,
 but of the free.
5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ hath
 made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of
 bondage.
5:2 Behold, I Paul say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ
 will profit you nothing.
5:3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that
 he is a debtor to do the whole law.
5:4 Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are
 justified by the law; ye have fallen from grace.
5:5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness
 by faith.
5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing,
 nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
5:7 Ye did run well, who hindered you that ye should not obey
 the truth?
5:8 This persuasion [cometh] not from him that calleth you.
5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
5:10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be
 no otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his
 judgment, whoever he may be.
5:11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet
 suffer persecution? then hath the offense of the cross ceased.
5:12 I would they were even cut off who trouble you.
5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called to liberty; only [use]
 not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one
 another.
5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this,
 Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
5:15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be
 not consumed one by another.
5:16 [This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye will not
 fulfill the lust of the flesh.
5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit
 against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other;
 so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
5:18 But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these],
 Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath,
 strife, seditions, heresies,
5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like:
 of which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time
 past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the
 kingdom of God.
5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
 long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh, with
 the affections and lusts.
5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
5:26 Let us not be desirous of vain-glory, provoking one
 another, envying one another.
6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye who are
 spiritual, restore such one in the spirit of meekness;
 considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of
 Christ.
6:3 For if a man thinketh himself to be something, when he is
 nothing, he deceiveth himself.
6:4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have
 rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
6:5 For every man shall bear his own burden.
6:6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that
 teacheth in all good things.
6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatever a man
 soweth, that shall he also reap.
6:8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall from the flesh reap
 corruption: but he that soweth to the Spirit, shall from the
 Spirit reap life everlasting.
6:9 And let us not be weary in well-doing: for in due season we
 shall reap, if we faint not.
6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good to all
 [men], especially to them who are of the household of faith.
6:11 Ye see how large a letter I have written to you with my own
 hand.
6:12 As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they
 constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer
 persecution for the cross of Christ.
6:13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the
 law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in
 your flesh.
6:14 But may it never be that I should glory, save in the cross
 of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me,
 and I to the world.
6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any
 thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
6:16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace [be] on
 them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
6:17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my
 body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
6:18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your
 spirit. Amen.
