1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the trueth, before whose eyes Iesus Christ hath been euidently set forth, crucified among you?
2 This onely would I learne of you, receiued ye the spirit, by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of faith?
3 Are ye so foolish? hauing begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
4 Haue ye suffered so many things in vaine? if it be yet in vaine.
5 He therfore that ministreth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the workes of the Law, or by the hearing of faith?
6 Euen as Abraham beleeued God, and it was accounted to him for righteousnesse.
7 Knowe yee therefore, that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
8 And the Scripture foreseeing that God would iustifie the heathen through faith, preached before the Gospel vnto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
9 So then, they which bee of faith, are blessed with faithfull Abraham.
10 For as many as are of the works of the lawe, are vnder the curse: for it is written, Cursed is euery one that continueth not in all things which are written in the booke of the Law to doe them.
11 But that no man is iustified by the Lawe in the sight of God, it is euident: for, The iust shall liue by faith.
12 And the Law is not of faith: but the man that doeth them, shall liue in them.
13 Christ hath redeemed vs from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for vs: for it is written, Cursed is euery one that hangeth on tree:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles, through Iesus Christ: that wee might receiue the promise of the Spirit through faith.
