New King James Version
19 Now (A)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 (B)those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But (C)the fruit of the Spirit is (D)love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, (E)goodness, (F)faithfulness, 23 [d]gentleness, self-control. (G)Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s (H)have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 (I)If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
