Galatians 3:1-9 ▼

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.
