1. For freedom Christ set us free; so stand firm and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery.
2. It is I, Paul, who am telling you that if you have yourselves circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you.
3. Once again I declare to every man who has himself circumcised that he is bound to observe the entire law.
4. You are separated from Christ, you who are trying to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
5. For through the Spirit, by faith, we await the hope of righteousness.
6. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love.
