Galatians 5:18-23
New King James Version
18 But (A)if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 Now (B)the works of the flesh are evident, which are: [a]adultery, [b]fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, [c]murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that (C)those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But (D)the fruit of the Spirit is (E)love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, (F)goodness, (G)faithfulness, 23 [d]gentleness, self-control. (H)Against such there is no law.
