Galatians 3

Foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you not to obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly portrayed among you as crucified?

O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified?

I just want to learn this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now completed in the flesh?

Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh?

Did you suffer so many things in vain, if it is indeed in vain?

Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.

He therefore who supplies the Spirit to you and does miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

Even so, Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.”

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.

Know therefore that those who are of faith are children of Abraham.

Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Good News beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you all the nations will be blessed.”

And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all the nations be blessed.

So then, those who are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.

So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.

For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who doesn’t continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.”

For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.

Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, “The righteous will live by faith.”

Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;

The law is not of faith, but, “The man who does them will live by them.”

and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,”

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Brothers, speaking of human terms, though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void or adds to it.

Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.

Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his offspring. He doesn’t say, “To descendants”, as of many, but as of one, “To your offspring”, which is Christ.

Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

Now I say this: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.

For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by promise.

For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.

Then why is there the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise has been made. It was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; and it was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

Now a mediator is not between one, but God is one.

Now a mediator is not a mediator of one; but God is one.

Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.

Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.

But the Scripture imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

But the scripture shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

So that the law is become our tutor to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor.

For you are all children of God, through faith in Christ Jesus.

For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus.

For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

For as many of you as were baptized into Christ did put on Christ.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female; for ye all are one man in Christ Jesus.

If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring and heirs according to promise.

And if ye are Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, heirs according to promise.
