1 O foolishe Galathians, who hath bewitched you, that ye shoulde not obey ye trueth? To whom Iesus Christe was described before the eyes, & among you crucified. 2 This only woulde I learne of you, whether ye receaued the spirite by the deedes of the lawe, or by the hearyng of the fayth? 3 Are ye such fooles, that after ye haue begun in the spirite, ye woulde nowe ende in the fleshe? 4 Haue ye suffered so great thynges in vayne? Yf it be yet in vayne. 5 He therfore that ministreth to you the spirite, and worketh miracles among you, doth he it through the deedes of the lawe, or by hearyng of the fayth? 6 Euen as Abraham beleued God, & it was ascribed to hym for righteousnesse. 7 Knowe ye therfore, that they which are of fayth, the same are the chyldren of Abraham. 8 For the scripture seyng aforehande that God woulde iustifie the Heathen through fayth, shewed beforehand glad tydynges vnto Abraham, saying : In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then, they which be of fayth, are blessed with the faythfull Abraham. 10 For as many as are of the deedes of the lawe, are vnder the curse. For it is writte: Cursed is euery one that continueth not in all thinges which are written in the booke of the lawe, to do them. 11 But that no man is iustified by ye lawe in the sight of God, it is euident. For the iust shall lyue by fayth. 12 And the lawe is not of fayth: but the man that doth them, shall lyue in them. 13 Christe hath redeemed vs from the curse of the lawe, beyng made a curse for vs. For it is written: Cursed is euery one that hangeth on tree: Galatians 3:1-13, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
