Galatians

¹ This will be [1†]the third time I am coming to you. [2†]“By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.”

² [3†]I have told you before, and foretell as if I were present the second time, and now being absent I write to those [4†]who have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again [5†]I will not spare—

³ since you seek a proof of Christ [6†]speaking in me, who is not weak toward you, but mighty [7†]in you.

⁴ [8†]For though He was crucified in weakness, yet [9†]He lives by the power of God. For [10†]we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you.

⁵ Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, [11†]that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are [12†]disqualified.

⁶ But I trust that you will know that we are not disqualified.

⁷ Now I pray to God that you do no evil, not that we should appear approved, but that you should do what is honorable, though [13†]we may seem disqualified.

⁸ For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

⁹ For we are glad [14†]when we are weak and you are strong. And this also we pray, [15†]that you may be made complete.

¹⁰ [16†]Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the [17†]authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

¹¹ Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. [18†]Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love [19†]and peace will be with you.

¹² [20†]Greet one another with a holy kiss.

¹³ All the saints greet you.

¹⁴ [21†]The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and [22†]the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.
