Read the New Testament in 24 Weeks

3 O ō foolish anoētos Galatians Galatēs! Who tis has bewitched baskainō you hymeis, before kata whose hos eyes ophthalmos Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos was publicly exhibited prographō as crucified stauroō? ² Only monon this houtos I want thelō to learn manthanō from apo you hymeis: Did you receive lambanō the ho Spirit pneuma by ek works ergon of the law nomos or ē by ek hearing akoē with faith pistis? ³ Are you eimi so houtōs foolish anoētos? Having begun enarchomai by the Spirit pneuma, would you epiteleō now nyn attain your goal epiteleō by the flesh sarx? ⁴ Have you suffered paschō so many things tosoutos for no purpose eikē?— if ei it really kai was for no purpose eikē. ⁵ So oun does the ho one who gives epichorēgeō you hymeis the ho Spirit pneuma and kai works energeō miracles dynamis among en you hymeis do it by ek works ergon of the law nomos, or ē by ek hearing akoē with faith pistis?

⁶ Consider kathōs Abraham Abraam: “ He believed pisteuō · ho God theos, and kai it was reckoned logizomai to him autos as eis righteousness dikaiosynē.” ⁷ Know ginōskō then ara that hoti it is those ho of ek faith pistis who houtos are eimi the sons hyios of Abraham Abraam. ⁸ And de the ho Scripture graphē, foreseeing prooraō that hoti God theos would justify dikaioō the ho Gentiles ethnos by ek faith pistis, · ho preached proeuangelizomai the gospel beforehand to ho Abraham Abraam, saying hoti, “ In en you sy will all pas nations ethnos be blessed eneulogeō.” · ho ⁹ So hōste then , those ho who ek believe pistis are blessed eulogeō along with syn Abraham Abraam, the ho believer pistos.

¹⁰ For gar all hosos who rely eimi on ek works ergon of the law nomos are eimi under hypo a curse katara; for gar it is written graphō, “ Cursed epikataratos is everyone pas who hos does not ou continue emmenō in all pas things ho written graphō in en the ho book biblion of the ho law nomos, to do poieō them autos.” ¹¹ Now de it is clear dēlos that hoti no one oudeis is justified dikaioō before para God theos by en the law nomos, · ho because hoti “it is by ek faith pistis that the ho righteous dikaios person will live zaō.” ¹² However de, the ho law nomos is eimi not ou of ek faith pistis; on the contrary alla, it teaches that “ the ho one who does poieō them autos will live zaō by en them autos.” ¹³ Christ Christos redeemed exagorazō us hēmeis from ek the ho curse katara of the ho law nomos by becoming ginomai a curse katara for hyper us hēmeis— for hoti it is written graphō, “ Cursed epikataratos is everyone pas who ho is hung kremannymi on epi a tree xylon”— ¹⁴ in order that hina in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous the ho blessing eulogia of ho Abraham Abraam might come ginomai to eis the ho Gentiles ethnos, so that hina we might receive lambanō the ho promise epangelia of the ho Spirit pneuma through dia · ho faith pistis.

¹⁵ To speak legō in kata human terms anthrōpos, brothers adelphos: even though homōs a covenant diathēkē is one made by man anthrōpos, yet when it has been ratified kyroō, no one oudeis can set it aside atheteō or ē add epidiatassomai anything to it. ¹⁶ Now de the ho promises epangelia were made legō to ho Abraham Abraam and kai to ho his autos descendant sperma. Scripture does not ou say legō, “ and kai to ho descendants sperma,” referring hōs to epi many polys, but alla “ and kai to ho your sy descendant sperma,” referring hōs to epi one heis, who hos is eimi Christ Christos. ¹⁷ What I am saying legō is this houtos: · de the ho law nomos, which came ginomai four hundred tetrakosioi and kai thirty triakonta years etos later meta, does not ou annul akyroō a covenant diathēkē previously established prokyroō by hypo · ho God theos, so as eis to make katargeō the ho promise epangelia void . ¹⁸ For gar if ei the ho inheritance klēronomia is based on ek law nomos, it is no longer ouketi based on ek a promise epangelia; but de God theos gave charizomai it to ho Abraham Abraam through dia a promise epangelia. · ho

¹⁹ Why tis then oun was the ho law nomos given? It was added prostithēmi because of charin · ho transgressions parabasis, until achri hos the ho descendant sperma should come erchomai to whom hos the promise had been made epangellomai. It was established diatassō through dia angels angelos by en a mediator cheir mesitēs. ²⁰ Now de a ho mediator mesitēs is eimi not ou for one heis party only, · ho but de God theos is eimi one heis.

²¹ Is the ho law nomos, therefore oun, opposed to kata the ho promises epangelia of ho God theos? Certainly not mē! For gar if ei a law nomos had been given didōmi that ho could dynamai impart life zōiopoieō, then righteousness dikaiosynē would an indeed ontōs be eimi by ek the law nomos. · ho ²² But alla the ho Scripture graphē confined synkleiō · ho everything pas under hypo sin hamartia, so that hina what ho was promised epangelia through ek faith pistis in Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos might be given didōmi to those ho who believe pisteuō.

²³ Now de before pro faith pistis came erchomai, · ho we were held in custody phroureō under hypo the law nomos, imprisoned synkleiō until eis the ho coming mellō faith pistis would be revealed apokalyptō. ²⁴ Thus hōste the ho law nomos was ginomai our hēmeis disciplinarian paidagōgos until eis the time of Christ Christos, so that hina we might be declared righteous dikaioō by ek faith pistis. ²⁵ But de now that faith pistis has come erchomai, · ho we are eimi no longer ouketi under hypo a guardian paidagōgos. ²⁶ For gar you are eimi all pas sons hyios of God theos through dia · ho faith pistis in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. ²⁷ For gar as many hosos of you baptizō as were baptized baptizō into eis Christ Christos have clothed yourselves with endyō Christ Christos. ²⁸ Now there is neither ou Jew Ioudaios nor oude Greek Hellēn, neither ou slave nor oude free eleutheros, neither ou male arsēn nor kai female thēlys; for gar you hymeis are eimi all pas one heis in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. ²⁹ And de if ei you hymeis belong to Christ Christos, then ara you are eimi descendants sperma of ho Abraham Abraam, heirs klēronomos according kata to the promise epangelia.

4 What I am saying legō · de is that as long as epi the ho heir klēronomos is eimi a minor nēpios, he differs diapherō not at all oudeis from a slave, even though in fact eimi he owns kyrios the entire pas estate. ² However alla, he remains eimi under hypo the care of guardians epitropē and kai managers oikonomos until achri the ho time determined prothesmia by his ho father patēr. ³ And kai so it is houtōs with us hēmeis. While hote we were eimi minors nēpios, we were eimi enslaved douloō to hypo the ho elementary stoicheion principles of the ho world kosmos. ⁴ But de when hote the ho fullness plērōma of ho time chronos had come erchomai, God theos sent forth exapostellō · ho · ho his autos Son hyios, born ginomai of ek a woman gynē, born ginomai under hypo law nomos, ⁵ to hina redeem exagorazō those ho who were under hypo law nomos, so that hina we might receive apolambanō · ho adoption as sons hyiothesia. ⁶ And de because hoti you are eimi sons hyios, God theos sent exapostellō · ho the ho Spirit pneuma of ho his autos Son hyios into eis · ho our hēmeis hearts kardia, who cries krazō out “ Abba abba! · ho Father patēr!” ⁷ So hōste you are eimi no longer ouketi a slave, but alla a son hyios; and de since ei you are a son hyios, then kai you are an heir klēronomos through dia God theos.

⁸ Formerly alla tote, when you did not ou know oida God theos, you were enslaved douleuō to those ho who eimi by nature physis are eimi not mē gods theos. ⁹ But de now nyn that you have come to know ginōskō God theos— or de rather mallon, are known ginōskō by hypo God theos— how pōs can you turn back epistrephō again palin to epi the ho feeble asthenēs and kai inferior ptōchos elementary principles stoicheion of the world ? How can you want thelō to be douleuō their hos slaves douleuō all over anōthen again palin? ¹⁰ You scrupulously observe paratēreō special days hēmera and kai months mēn and kai seasons kairos and kai years eniautos! ¹¹ I am afraid phobeomai that pōs I may have labored kopiaō over eis you hymeis to no avail eikē.

¹² Become ginomai as hōs I egō am, because hoti I kagō have become as hōs you hymeis are; I plead deomai with you hymeis, brothers adelphos. You have done adikeō me egō no oudeis wrong adikeō. ¹³ You know oida · de that hoti it was due to dia a physical sarx infirmity astheneia · ho that I preached the gospel euangelizō to you hymeis at ho first proteros; ¹⁴ and kai though my egō condition sarx was a ho trial peirasmos to you hymeis, · ho you did not ou despise exoutheneō or oude reject ekptyō me, but alla you welcomed dechomai me egō as hōs an angel angelos of God theos, as hōs though I were Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. ¹⁵ What pou then oun became of the ho blessing makarismos you hymeis enjoyed? For gar I testify martyreō about you hymeis that hoti, if ei possible dynatos, you would have torn out exoryssō · ho your hymeis eyes ophthalmos and given didōmi them to me egō! ¹⁶ So then hōste, have I become ginomai your hymeis enemy echthros by telling you hymeis the truth alētheuō?

¹⁷ They zealously seek zēloō your hymeis favor, but for no ou good kalōs purpose . Rather alla, they want thelō to separate ekkleiō you hymeis from us so that hina you will seek zēloō them autos. ¹⁸ Now de to be zealous zēloō for en a good purpose kalos is always pantote good kalos, · kai not mē just monon when en I egō am present pareimi with pros you hymeis.

¹⁹ My egō little children teknon, for whom hos I am again palin in the pain of childbirth ōdinō until mechri Christ Christos is formed morphoō in en you hymeis, ²⁰ I wish thelō · de I could be pareimi with pros you hymeis now arti and kai change allassō · ho my egō tone phōnē, for hoti I am perplexed aporeō about en you hymeis.

²¹ Tell legō me egō, you who ho want thelō to be eimi under hypo the law nomos, will you akouō not ou listen to akouō the ho law nomos? ²² For gar it is written graphō that hoti Abraham Abraam had echō two dyo sons hyios, one heis by ek the ho slave woman paidiskē and kai one heis by ek the ho free woman eleutheros. ²³ The ho son by ek the ho slave paidiskē woman was born gennaō according kata to the flesh sarx, but de the ho son by ek the ho free woman eleutheros was born as the result of dia promise epangelia. ²⁴ This hostis may be eimi interpreted allegorically allēgoreō, for gar these houtos women represent eimi two dyo covenants diathēkē. One heis is from apo Mount oros Sinai Sina, bearing children gennaō to be eis slaves douleia; she hostis is eimi Hagar Hagar. ²⁵ · ho Now de Hagar Hagar represents eimi Mount oros Sinai Sina in en · ho Arabia Arabia and de corresponds to systoicheō the ho present nyn Jerusalem Ierousalēm, for gar she is in slavery douleuō with meta · ho her autos children teknon. ²⁶ But de the ho Jerusalem Ierousalēm above anō is eimi the free eleutheros woman , and she hostis is eimi our hēmeis mother mētēr. ²⁷ For gar it is written graphō, “ Rejoice euphrainō, O barren woman steira, you who ho bear no ou children tiktō; break forth rhēgnymi and kai cry aloud boaō, you who ho are not ou in the pain of childbirth ōdinō! For hoti the ho children teknon of the ho desolate erēmos will be more mallon in number polys than ē those ho of the woman who has echō a ho husband anēr. ²⁸ But de you hymeis, my brothers adelphos, like kata Isaac Isaak, are eimi children teknon of promise epangelia. ²⁹ But alla just as hōsper at that time tote the ho one who was born gennaō according to kata the flesh sarx persecuted diōkō the ho one who was born according to kata the Spirit pneuma, so houtōs also kai it is now nyn. ³⁰ But alla what tis does the ho Scripture graphē say legō? “ Drive away ekballō the ho slave woman paidiskē and kai · ho her autos son hyios, for gar the ho son hyios of the ho slave woman paidiskē must not ou share the inheritance klēronomeō with meta the ho son hyios of the ho free woman eleutheros.” ³¹ So then dio, brothers adelphos, we are eimi not ou children teknon of a slave woman paidiskē but alla of the ho free woman eleutheros.
