| Galatians 5:1 | For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage. | Christ having made us gloriously free stand fast and do not again be hampered with the yoke of slavery. | Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don't be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. |
| Galatians 5:2 | Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing. | Remember that it is I Paul who tell you that if you receive circumcision Christ will avail you nothing. | Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing. |

| Galatians 5:4 | Ye are severed from Christ, ye would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace. | Christ has become nothing to any of you who are seeking acceptance with God through the Law: you have fallen away from grace. | You are alienated from Christ, you desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace. |
| Galatians 5:5 | For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness. | *We* have not, for through the Spirit we wait with longing hope for an acceptance with God which is to come through faith. | For we, through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness. |
| Galatians 5:6 | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love. | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only faith working through love. | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love. |
| Galatians 5:7 | Ye were running well; who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth? | You were running the race nobly! Who has interfered and caused you to swerve from the truth? | You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should not obey the truth? |
| Galatians 5:8 | This persuasion [came] not of him that calleth you. | No such teaching ever proceeded from Him who is calling you. | This persuasion is not from him who calls you. |
| Galatians 5:9 | A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. | A little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough. | A little yeast grows through the whole lump. |
| Galatians 5:10 | I have confidence to you-ward in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. | For my part I have strong confidence in you in the Lord that you will adopt my view of the matter. But the man be he who he may who is troubling you, will have to bear the full weight of the judgement to be pronounced on him. | I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will think no other way. But he who troubles you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. |
| Galatians 5:11 | But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away. | As for me, brethren, if I am still a preacher of circumcision, how is it that I am still suffering persecution? In that case the Cross has ceased to be a stumbling-block! | But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling-block of the cross has been removed. |
| Galatians 5:12 | I would that they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision. | Would to God that those who are unsettling your faith would even mutilate themselves. | I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off. |
| Galatians 5:13 | For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only [use] not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another. | You however, brethren, were called to freedom. Only do not turn your freedom into an excuse for giving way to your lower natures; but become bondservants to one another in a spirit of love. | For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don't use your freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one another. |
| Galatians 5:14 | For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. | For the entire Law has been obeyed when you have kept the single precept, which says, "You are to love your fellow man equally with yourself." | For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." |
| Galatians 5:15 | But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. | But if you are perpetually snarling and snapping at one another, beware lest you are destroyed by one another. | But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don't consume one another. |
| Galatians 5:16 | But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. | This then is what I mean.

| Galatians 5:17 | For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would. | For the cravings of the lower nature are opposed to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are opposed to those of the lower nature; because these are antagonistic to each other, so that you cannot do everything to which you are inclined. | For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other, that you may not do the things that you desire. |

| Galatians 5:21 | envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. | hard drinking, riotous feasting, and the like. And as to these I forewarn you, as I have already forewarned you, that those who are guilty of such things will have no share in the Kingdom of God. | envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. |
| Galatians 5:22 | But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, | The Spirit, on the other hand, brings a harvest of love, joy, peace; patience towards others, kindness, benevolence; | But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, |
