Galatians 4:31-5:6

New International Version

³¹ Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman,^(A) but of the free woman.^(B)

Freedom in Christ

5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.^(C) Stand firm,^(D) then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.^(E)

² Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised,^(F) Christ will be of no value to you at all. ³ Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.^{(G) 4} You who are trying to be justified by the law^(H) have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.^{(I) 5} For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope.^{(J) 6} For in Christ Jesus^(K) neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value.^(L) The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.^(M)
