Galatians 3
3
1O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you2f should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
2This only would I learn of you, Received you2f the Spirit [Ruach] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3Are you2f so foolish? having begun in the Spirit [Ruach], are you2f now made perfect by the flesh?
4Have you2f suffered so many things in vain? if [it be] yet in vain.
5He therefore that ministers to you the Spirit [Ruach], and works miracles among you, [does he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
6Even as Avraham [Exalted Father] believed God-The Father, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
7Know you2f therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Avraham [Exalted Father].
8And the scripture, foreseeing that God-The Father would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the Gospel (joyful message) unto Avraham [Exalted Father], [saying], In youi shall all nations be Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous).
9So then they which be of faith are Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) with faithful Avraham [Exalted Father].
10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God-The Father, [it is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in them.
13Moshiach [Messiah] has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that hangs on a tree:
14That the blessing of Avraham [Exalted Father] might come on the Goyim [Gentiles] through Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah]; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit [Ruach] through faith.
15Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though [it be] but a man’s covenant, yet [if it be] confirmed, no man disannulls, or adds thereto.
16Now to Avraham [Exalted Father] and his seed were the promises made. He says not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to youri seed, which is Moshiach [Messiah].
17And this I say, [that] the covenant, that was confirmed before of God-The Father in Moshiach [Messiah], the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
18For if the inheritance [be] of the law, [it is] no more of promise: but God-The Father gave [it] to Avraham [Exalted Father] by promise.
19For what reason then [serves] the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; [and it was] ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
20Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God-The Father is one.
21 [Is] the law then against the promises of God-The Father? May it not be: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness should have been by the law.
22But the scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] might be given to them that believe.
23But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24For what reason the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Moshiach [Messiah], that we might be justified by faith.
25But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26For you2f are all the children of God-The Father by faith in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation].
27For as many of you as have been baptized into Moshiach [Messiah] have put on Moshiach [Messiah].
28There is neither Jewish [praised] people nor Greek [unstable: the miry one], there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you2f are all one in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation].
29And if you2f [be] Moshiach [Messiah]’s, then are you2f Avraham [Exalted Father]’s [Exalted Father] seed, and heirs according to the promise.
