Walk by the Spirit

¹⁶ But I say, ^(A)walk by the Spirit and you will not carry out ^(B)the desire of the flesh. ¹⁷ For ^(C)the flesh ^[a]sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, ^(D)so that you do not do the things that you want. ¹⁸ But if you are ^(E)led by the Spirit, ^(F)you are not under the Law. ¹⁹ Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: ^(G)sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, ²⁰ idolatry, ^(H)sorcery, enmities, ^(I)strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, ^(J)selfish ambition, dissensions, ^[b](K)factions, ²¹ envying, ^(L)drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not ^(M)inherit the kingdom of God. ²² But ^(N)the fruit of the Spirit is ^(O)love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness, ^(P)self-control. Against such things ^(Q)there is no law. ²⁴ Now those who ^[c]belong to ^(R)Christ Jesus ^(S)crucified the flesh with its passions and ^(T)desires.

²⁵ If we live by the Spirit, let us also ^[d]walk in step with ^(U)the Spirit. ²⁶ Let us not become those with ^(V)vain glory, challenging one another, envying one another.
