Galatians 3:1

O thoughtless Galatians, who did bewitch you, not to obey the truth before whose eyes Jesus Christ was described before among you crucified?

O foolish Galatians, by what strange powers have you been tricked, to whom it was made clear that Jesus Christ was put to death on the cross?

You foolish Galatians! Whose sophistry has bewitched you you to whom Jesus Christ has been vividly portrayed as on the Cross?

Galatians 3:2

this only do I wish to learn from you by works of law the Spirit did ye receive, or by the hearing of faith?

Give me an answer to this one question, Did the Spirit come to you through the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

Answer me this one question, "Is it on the ground of your obedience to the Law that you received the Spirit, or is it because, when you heard, you believed?"

Galatians 3:3

so thoughtless are ye! having begun in the Spirit, now in the flesh do ye end?

Are you so foolish? having made a start in the Spirit, will you now be made complete in the flesh?

Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now going to reach perfection through what is external?

Galatians 3:4

so many things did ye suffer in vain! if, indeed, even in vain.

Did you undergo such a number of things to no purpose? if it is in fact to no purpose.

Have you endured such sufferings to no purpose if indeed it has been to no purpose?

Galatians 3:5

He, therefore, who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working mighty acts among you by works of law or by the hearing of faith [is it]?

He who gives you the Spirit, and does works of power among you, is it by the works of law, or by the hearing of faith?

He who gives you His Spirit and works miracles among you does He do so on the ground of your obedience to the Law, or is it the result of your having heard and believed:

Galatians 3:6

according as Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him to righteousness;

Even as Abraham had faith in God, and it was put to his account as righteousness.

even as Abraham believed God, and his faith was placed to his account as righteousness?

Galatians 3:7

know ye, then, that those of faith these are sons of Abraham,

Be certain, then, that those who are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

Notice therefore that those who possess faith are true sons of Abraham.

Galatians 3:8

and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham

And the holy Writings, seeing before the event that God would give the Gentiles righteousness by faith, gave the good news before to Abraham, saying, In you will all the nations have a blessing.

And the Scripture, foreseeing that in consequence of faith God would declare the nations to be free from guilt, sent beforehand the Good News to Abraham, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."

Galatians 3:9

`Blessed in thee shall be all the nations;` so that those of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham,

So then those who are of faith have a part in the blessing of Abraham who was full of faith.

So we see that it is those who possess faith that are blessed with believing Abraham.

Galatians 3:10

for as many as are of works of law are under a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed [is] every one who is not remaining in all things that have been written in the Book of the Law to do them,`

For all who are of the works of the law are under a curse: because it is said in the Writings, A curse is on everyone who does not keep on doing all the things which are ordered in the book of the law.

All who are depending upon their own obedience to the Law are under a curse, for it is written, "Cursed is every one who does not remain faithful to all the precepts of the Law, and practise them."

Galatians 3:11

and that in law no one is declared righteous with God, is evident, because `The righteous by faith shall live;`

Now that no man gets righteousness by the law in the eyes of God, is clear; because, The upright will be living by faith.

It is evident, too, that no one can find acceptance with God simply by obeying the Law, because "the righteous shall live by faith,"

Galatians 3:12

and the law is not by faith, but `The man who did them shall live in them.`

And the law is not of faith; but, He who does them will have life by them.

and the Law has nothing to do with faith. It teaches that "he who does these things shall live by doing them."

Galatians 3:13

Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,`

Christ has made us free from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us: because it is said in the Writings, A curse on everyone who is put to death by hanging on a tree:

Christ has purchased our freedom from the curse of the Law by becoming accursed for us because "Cursed is every one who is hanged upon a tree."

Galatians 3:14

that to the nations the blessing of Abraham may come in Christ Jesus, that the promise of the Spirit we may receive through the faith.

So that on the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; in order that we through faith might have the Spirit which God had undertaken to give.

Our freedom has been thus purchased in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing belonging to Abraham may come upon the nations, so that through faith we may receive the promised Spirit.

Galatians 3:15

Brethren, as a man I say [it], even of man a confirmed covenant no one doth make void or doth add to,

Brothers, as men would say, even a man's agreement, when it has been made certain, may not be put on one side, or have additions made to it.

Brethren, even a covenant made by a man to borrow an illustration from daily life when once formally sanctioned is not liable to be set aside or added to.

Galatians 3:16

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

Now to Abraham were the undertakings given, and to his seed. He says not, And to seeds, as of a great number; but as of one, he says, And to your seed, which is Christ.

(Now the promises were given to Abraham and to his seed. God did not say "and to seeds," as if speaking of many, but "and to your seed," since He spoke of only one and this is Christ.)

Galatians 3:17

and this I say, A covenant confirmed before by God to Christ, the law, that came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not set aside, to make void the promise,

Now this I say: The law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not put an end to the agreement made before by God, so as to make the undertaking without effect.

I mean that the Covenant which God had already formally made is not abrogated by the Law which was given four hundred and thirty years later so as to annul the promise.

Galatians 3:18

for if by law [be] the inheritance, [it is] no more by promise, but to Abraham through promise did God grant [it].

Because if the heritage is by the law, it is no longer dependent on the word of God; but God gave it to Abraham by his word.

For if the inheritance comes through obedience to Law, it no longer comes because of a promise. But, as a matter of fact, God has granted it to Abraham in fulfilment of a promise.

Galatians 3:19

Why, then, the law? on account of the transgressions it was added, till the seed might come to which the promise hath been made, having been set in order through messengers in the hand of a mediator

What then is the law? It was an addition made because of sin, till the coming of the seed to whom the undertaking had been given; and it was ordered through angels by the hand of a go-between.

Why then was the Law given? It was imposed later on for the sake of defining sin, until the seed should come to whom God had made the promise; and its details were laid down by a mediator with the help of angels.

Galatians 3:20

and the mediator is not of one, and God is one

Now a go-between is not a go-between of one; but God is one.

But there cannot be a mediator where only one individual is concerned.

Galatians 3:21

the law, then, [is] against the promises of God? let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness,

Is the law then against the words of God? in no way; because if there had been a law which was able to give life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.

God, however, is only one. Is the Law then opposed to the promises of God? No, indeed; for if a Law had been given which could have conferred Life, righteousness would certainly have come by the Law.

Galatians 3:22

but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those believing.

However, the holy Writings have put all things under sin, so that that for which God gave the undertaking, based on faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who have such faith.

But Scripture has shown that all mankind are the prisoners of sin, in order that the promised blessing, which depends on faith in Jesus Christ, may be given to those who believe.

Galatians 3:23

And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed,

But before faith came, we were kept in prison under the law, waiting for the revelation of the faith which was to come.

Before this faith came, we Jews were perpetual prisoners under the Law, living under restraints and limitations in preparation for the faith which was soon to be revealed.

Galatians 3:24

so that the law became our child-conductor to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous,

So the law has been a servant to take us to Christ, so that we might have righteousness by faith.

So that the Law has acted the part of a tutor-slave to lead us to Christ, in order that through faith we may be declared to be free from guilt.

Galatians 3:25

and the faith having come, no more under a child-conductor are we,

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

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

Galatians 3:26

for ye are all sons of God through the faith in Christ Jesus,

Because you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus;

Galatians 3:27

for as many as to Christ were baptized did put on Christ;

For all those of you who were given baptism into Christ did put on Christ.

for all of you who have been baptized into Christ, have clothed yourselves with Christ.

Galatians 3:28

there is not here Jew or Greek, there is not here servant nor freeman, there is not here male and female, for all ye are one in Christ Jesus;

There is no Jew or Greek, servant or free, male or female: because you are all one in Jesus Christ.

In Him the distinctions between Jew and Gentile, slave and free man, male and female, disappear; you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 3:29

and if ye [are] of Christ then of Abraham ye are seed, and according to promise heirs.

And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham.

And if you belong to Christ, then you are indeed true descendants of Abraham, and are heirs in fulfilment of the promise.
