Galatians 5:26

A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor preferring one another;

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice.

Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain.

with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love,

And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.

subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.

doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all wrongs.

Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.

Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;

So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us. Establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands.

Surely he mocks the mockers, but he gives grace to the humble.

For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

Don’t speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

He made his son to pass through the fire, practiced sorcery, used enchantments, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits, and with wizards. He did much evil in Yahweh’s sight, to provoke him to anger.

When they cast down, you will say, ‘be lifted up.’ He will save the humble person.

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

For I say through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.

Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

Have we no right to eat and to drink?

If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but don’t have love, I am nothing.

Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.

We exhort you, brothers: Admonish the disorderly; encourage the faint-hearted; support the weak; be patient toward all.

But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

Beloved, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yes, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out from before the children of Israel.

An angry man stirs up strife, and a wrathful man abounds in sin.

Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.

for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?

bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.

For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

“Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,

And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.

not a new convert, lest being puffed up he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.

The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,

“ ‘You shall not eat any meat with the blood still in it. You shall not use enchantments, nor practice sorcery.

They gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Baal Berith, with which Abimelech hired vain and reckless fellows who followed him.

and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.

sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.

Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is with people who take advice.

He who covers an offense promotes love; but he who repeats a matter separates best friends.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

I don’t receive glory from men.

Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you, as do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my relatives.

When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.

I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;

idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies,

Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,

desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they don’t argue about words, to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.

Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,

They will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

Yet in the same way, these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and slander celestial beings.

The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.

They caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, to provoke him to anger.

So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.

Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud,

For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire, that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, or riots,

But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another.

Do all things without complaining and arguing,

nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.

But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.

But now you glory in your boasting. All such boasting is evil.

Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
