ASV_Strong : Galatians 3
1. O[G5599] foolish[G453] Galatians[G1052], who[G5101] did bewitch[G940] you[G5209], before[G2596] whose[G3739] eyes[G3788] Jesus[G2424] Christ[G5547] was openly set forth[G4270] crucified[G4717]?
2. This[G5124] only[G3440] would[G2309] I learn[G3129] from[G575] you[G5216]. Received ye[G2983] the Spirit[G4151] by[G1537] the works[G2041] of the law[G3551], or[G2228] by[G1537] the hearing[G189] of faith[G4102]?
3. Are ye[G2075] so[G3779] foolish[G453]? having begun[G1728] in the Spirit[G4151], are ye[G2005] now[G3568] perfected[G2005] in the flesh[G4561]?
4. Did ye suffer[G3958] so many things[G5118] in vain[G1500]? if[G1489] it be indeed[G2532] in vain[G1500].
5. He[G2023] therefore[G3767] that[G3588] supplieth[G2023] to you[G5213] the Spirit[G4151], and[G2532] worketh[G1754] miracles[G1411] among[G1722] you[G5213], doeth he it by[G1537] the works[G2041] of the law[G3551], or[G2228] by[G1537] the hearing[G189] of faith[G4102]?
6. Even as[G2531] Abraham[G11] believed[G4100] God[G2316], and[G2532] it was reckoned[G3049] unto him[G846] for[G1519] righteousness[G1343].
7. Know therefore[G686] that[G3754] they that[G3754] are[G3588] of[G1537] faith[G4102], the same[G3778] are[G1526] sons of[G5207] Abraham[G1097].
8. And[G1161] the scripture[G1124], foreseeing[G4275] that[G3754] God[G2316] would justify[G1344] the Gentiles[G1484] by[G1537] faith[G4102], preached the gospel[G4283] beforehand unto Abraham[G11], saying[G3754], In[G1722] thee[G4671] shall[G2127] all[G3956] the nations[G1484] be blessed[G2127].
9. So then[G5620] they[G2127] that are[G3588] of[G1537] faith[G4102] are blessed[G2127] with[G4862] the faithful[G4103] Abraham[G11].
10. For[G1063] as many as[G3745] are[G1526] of[G1537] the works[G2041] of the law[G3551] are[G1526] under[G5259] a curse[G2671]: for[G1063] it is written[G1125], Cursed[G1944] is every one[G3956] who[G3588] continueth[G1696] not[G3756] in[G1722] all things[G3956] that[G3739] are written[G1125] in[G1722] the book[G975] of the law[G3551], to do[G4160] them[G846].
11. Now[G1161] that[G3754] no man[G3762] is justified[G1344] by[G1722] the law[G3551] before[G3844] God[G2316], is evident[G1212]: for[G3754], The righteous[G1342] shall live[G2198] by[G1537] faith[G4102];
12. and[G1161] the law[G3551] is[G2076] not[G3756] of[G1537] faith[G4102]; but[G235], He[G444] that doeth[G4160] them[G846] shall live[G2198] in[G1722] them[G846].
13. Christ[G5547] redeemed[G1805] us[G2248] from[G1537] the curse[G2671] of the law[G3551], having become[G1096] a curse[G2671] for[G5228] us[G2257]; for[G1063] it is written[G1125], Cursed[G1944] is every one[G3956] that[G3588] hangeth[G2910] on[G1909] a tree[G3586]:
14. that[G2443] upon[G1519] the Gentiles[G1484] might come[G1096] the blessing[G2129] of Abraham[G11] in[G1722] Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424]; that[G2443] we might receive[G2983] the promise[G1860] of the Spirit[G4151] through[G1223] faith[G4102].
15. Brethren[G80], I speak[G3004] after the manner of[G2596] men[G444]: Though[G3676] it be but[G3676] a man[G444]'s covenant[G1242], yet when it hath been confirmed[G2964], no one[G3762] maketh it void[G114], or[G2228] addeth thereto[G1928].
16. Now[G1161] to Abraham[G11] were[G4483] the promises[G1860] spoken[G4483], and[G2532] to his[G846] seed[G4690]. He saith[G3004] not[G3756], And[G2532] to seeds[G4690], as[G5613] of[G1909] many[G4183]; but[G235] as[G5613] of[G1909] one[G1520], And[G2532] to[G4690] thy[G4675] seed[G4690], which[G3739] is[G2076] Christ[G5547].
17. Now[G1161] this[G5124] I say[G3004]: A covenant[G1242] confirmed beforehand[G4300] by[G5259] God[G2316], [G1519, 5547] the law[G3551], which[G3588] came[G1096] four hundred[G5071] and[G2532] thirty[G5144] years[G2094] after[G3326], doth not[G3756] disannul[G1519], so as to[G3588] make[G2673] the promise[G1860] of none effect[G2673].
18. For[G1063] if[G1487] the inheritance[G2817] is of[G1537] the law[G3551], it is no more[G3765] of[G1537] promise[G1860]: but[G1161] God[G2316] hath granted[G5483] it to Abraham[G11] by[G1223] promise[G1860].
19. What[G5101] then[G3767] is the law[G3551]? It was added[G4369] because[G5484] of transgressions[G3847], till[G891, 3739] the seed[G4690] should come[G2064] to whom[G3739] the promise hath been made[G1861]; and it was ordained[G1299] through[G1223] angels[G32] by[G1722] the hand[G5495] of a mediator[G3316].
20. Now[G1161] a mediator[G3316] is[G2076] not[G3756] a mediator of one[G1520]; but[G1161] God[G2316] is[G2076] one[G1520].
21. Is the law[G3551] then[G3767] against[G2596] the promises[G1860] of God[G3361]? God forbid[G1096]: for[G1063] if[G1487] there had been[G1325] a law[G3551] given[G1325] which[G3588] could make[G1410] alive[G2227], verily[G3689, Leviticus2] righteousness[G1343] would have been[G2258] of[G1537] the law[G3551].
22. But[G235] the scriptures[G1124] shut up[G4788] all[G3956] things under[G5259] sin[G266], that[G2443] the promise[G1860] by[G1537] faith[G4102] in Jesus[G2424] Christ[G5547] might be given[G1325] to them that[G3588] believe[G4100].
23. But[G1161] before[G4253] faith[G4102] came[G2064], we were kept[G5432] in ward under[G5259] the law[G3551], shut up[G4788] unto[G1519] the faith[G4102] which[G3588] should afterwards[G3195] be revealed[G601].
24. So[G5620] that the law[G3551] is become[G1096] our[G2257] tutor[G3807] to bring us unto[G1519] Christ[G5547], that[G2443] we might be justified[G1344] by[G1537] faith[G4102].
25. But[G1161] now that[G3588] faith[G4102] is come[G2064], we are[G2070] no longer[G3765] under[G5259] a tutor[G3807].
26. For[G1063] ye are[G2075] all[G3956] sons[G5207] of God[G2316], through[G1223] faith[G4102], in[G1722] Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424].
27. For[G1063] as many[G3745] of you[G907] as[G3745] were baptized[G907] into[G1519] Christ[G5547] did put on[G1746] Christ[G5547].
28. There can be[G1762] neither[G3756] Jew[G2453] nor[G3761] Greek[G1672], there can be[G1762] neither[G3756] bond[G1401] nor[G3761] free[G1658], there can be[G1762] no[G3756] male[G730] and[G2532] female[G2338]; for[G1063] ye[G5210] all[G3956] are[G2075] one[G1520] man in[G1722] Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424].
29. And[G1161] if[G1487] ye[G5210] are Christ[G5547]'s, then[G686] are ye[G2075] Abraham[G11]'s seed[G4690], [G2532] heirs[G2818] according to[G2596] promise[G1860].
