Galatians 5:19-26 English Standard Version
19 Now (A)the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, (B)divisions, 21 envy,[a] drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that (C)those who do[b] such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But (D)the fruit of the Spirit is (E)love, joy, peace, patience, (F)kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 (G)gentleness, (H)self-control; (I)against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus (J)have crucified the flesh with its (K)passions and desires.
25 If we live by the Spirit, (L)let us also keep in step with the Spirit. 26 (M)Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
