New Testament

Galatians 5:12-26 English Revised Version (ERV)

12. I would that they which unsettle you would even cut themselves off.

13. For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another.

14. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16. But I say, Walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

17. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would.

18. But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20. idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, heresies,

21. envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they which practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

23. meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24. And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof.

25. If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk.

26. Let us not be vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
