Galatians 5:12-14
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
12 I would they were even cut off, who trouble you.
13 For you, brethren, have been called unto liberty: only make not liberty an occasion to the flesh, but by charity of the spirit serve one another.
14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Galatians 5:12-14
New International Version
12 As for those agitators,(A) I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!
Life by the Spirit
13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free.(B) But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh[a];(C) rather, serve one another(D) humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[b](E)
