(A)Yet because of false brothers secretly brought in—who (B)slipped in to spy out (C)our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, (D)so that they might bring us into slavery—

25 I have been young, and now am old,
    yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
    or his children (A)begging for bread.
26 He is ever (B)lending generously,
    and his children become a blessing.

15 He makes (A)a pit, digging it out,
    and falls into the hole that he has made.
16 His (B)mischief returns upon his own head,

14 But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of (A)Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might (B)eat food sacrificed to idols and (C)practice sexual immorality.

18 For, (A)speaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely (B)escaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them (C)freedom, (D)but they themselves are slaves[a] of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, (E)after they have escaped the defilements of the world (F)through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, (G)the last state has become worse for them than the first.

  1. 2 Peter 2:19 For the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface

By Faith, or by Works of the Law?

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? (A)It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly (B)portrayed as crucified. Let me ask you only this: (C)Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law or by (D)hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? (E)Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by[a] the flesh? (F)Did you suffer[b] so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?

But even if we or (A)an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, (B)let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, (C)let him be accursed.

13 For such men are (A)false apostles, (B)deceitful workmen, (C)disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as (D)an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as (E)servants of righteousness. (F)Their end will correspond to their deeds.

But I am afraid that (A)as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts (B)will be led astray from a (C)sincere and (D)pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes and (E)proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept (F)a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough.
