5:10 I have confidence in you through the Lord that ye will be not otherwise minded; but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
5:11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why then do I yet suffer persecution? Then would the offense of the cross cease.
5:12 I would that they were even cut off which trouble you!
5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion of 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 not be consumed one by another.
5:16 This I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall 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, and they are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
5:21 envying, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like. About these things I tell you again, as I have also told you in times past, that those who do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of God.
5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
5:23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
5:24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its 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 vainglory, provoking one another and envying one another.
