| 1 For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. | 1 State, et nolite iterum jugo servitutis contineri. |
| 2 Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. | 2 Ecce ego Paulus dico vobis : quoniam si circumcidamini, Christus vobis nihil proderit. |
| 3 I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law. | 3 Testificor autem rursus omni homini circumcidenti se, quoniam debitor est universæ legis faciendæ. |
| 4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. | 4 Evacuati estis a Christo, qui in lege justificamini : a gratia excidistis. |
| 5 For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness. | 5 Nos enim spiritu ex fide, spem justitiæ exspectamus. |
| 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love. | 6 Nam in Christo Jesu neque circumcisio aliquid valet, neque præputium : sed fides, quæ per caritatem operatur. |
| 7 You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth? | 7 Currebatis bene : quis vos impedivit veritati non obedire ? |
| 8 This persuasion is not from him who calls you. | 8 persuasio hæc non est ex eo, qui vocat vos. |
| 9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump. | 9 Modicum fermentum totam massam corrumpit. |
| 10 I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. | 10 Ego confido in vobis in Domino, quod nihil aliud sapietis : qui autem conturbat vos, portabit judicium, quicumque est ille. |
| 11 But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed. | 11 Ego autem, fratres, si circumcisionem adhuc prædico : quid adhuc persecutionem patior ? ergo evacuatum est scandalum crucis. |
| 12 I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves! | 12 Utinam et abscindantur qui vos conturbant.
|
| 13 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. | 13 Vos enim in libertatem vocati estis, fratres : tantum ne libertatem in occasionem detis carnis, sed per caritatem Spiritus servite invicem. |
| 14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." | 14 Omnis enim lex in uno sermone impletur : Diliges proximum tuum sicut teipsum. |
| 15 But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another. | 15 Quod si invicem mordetis, et comeditis : videte ne ab invicem consumamini. |
| 16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. | 16 Dico autem : Spiritu ambulate, et desideria carnis non perficietis. |
| 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. | 17 Caro enim concupiscit adversus spiritum, spiritus autem adversus carnem : hæc enim sibi invicem adversantur, ut non quæcumque vultis, illa faciatis. |
| 18 But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. | 18 Quod si Spiritu ducimini, non estis sub lege. |
| 19 Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, | 19 Manifesta sunt autem opera carnis, quæ sunt fornicatio, immunditia, impudicitia, luxuria, |
| 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, | 20 idolorum servitus, veneficia, inimicitiæ, contentiones, æmulationes, iræ, rixæ, dissensiones, sectæ, |
| 21 envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. | 21 invidiæ, homicidia, ebrietates, comessationes, et his similia, quæ prædico vobis, sicut prædixi : quoniam qui talia agunt, regnum Dei non consequentur. |
| 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, | 22 Fructus autem Spiritus est caritas, gaudium, pax, patientia, benignitas, bonitas, longanimitas, |
| 23 gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. | 23 mansuetudo, fides, modestia, continentia, castitas. Adversus hujusmodi non est lex. |
| 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. | 24 Qui autem sunt Christi, carnem suam crucifixerunt cum vitiis et concupiscentiis. |
| 25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. | 25 Si Spiritu vivimus, Spiritu et ambulemus. |
| 26 Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another. | 26 Non efficiamur inanis gloriæ cupidi, invicem provocantes, invicem invidentes. |
