Galatians 5:1-12:

[1]  For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. 

[2]  Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. 

[3]  I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law. 

[4]  You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. 

[5]  For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness. 

[6]  For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love. 

[7]  You were running well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? 

[8]  This persuasion is not from him who calls you. 

[9]  A little leaven leavens the whole lump. 

[10]  I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is. 

[11]  But if I, brothers, still preach circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been removed. 

[12]  I wish those who unsettle you would emasculate themselves!
