Tyndale(i)
1 Stond fast therfore in ye libertie wher with Christ hath made vs fre and wrappe not youre selves agayne in ye yoke of bondage.
2 Beholde I Paul saye vnto you that yf ye be circumcised Christ shall proffit you nothinge at all.
3 I testifie agayne to every man which is circumcised that he is bounde to kepe the whole lawe.
4 Ye are gone quyte fro Christ as many as are iustified by the lawe and are fallen from grace.
5 We loke for and hope in the sprite to be iustified thorow fayth.
6 For in Iesu Christ nether is circumcision enythinge worth nether yet vncircocision but faith which by love is mighty in operacion.
7 Ye did runne well: who was a let vnto you that ye shuld not obey the trueth?
8 Eve that counsell that is not of him that called you.
9 A lytell leven doth leven the whole lompe of dowe.
10 I have trust towarde you in the Lorde yt ye wyll be none other wyse mynded. He that troubleth you shall beare his iudgemet what soever he be.
11 Brethren yf I yet preache circucision: why do I then yet suffre persecucion? For then had the offence which the crosse geveth ceased.
12 I wolde to God they were seperated from you which trouble you.
13 Brethre ye were called in to (libertie) only let not youre libertie be an occasion vnto the flesshe but in love serve one another.
14 For all ye lawe is fulfilled in one worde which is this: thou shalt love thyne neghbour as thy selfe.
15 Yf ye byte and devoure one another: take hede lest ye be consumed one of another.
16 I saye walke in the sprete and fulfill not ye lustes of ye flesshe.
17 For ye flesshe lusteth contrary to ye sprete and ye sprete cotrary to ye flesshe. Tese are cotrary one to the other so yt ye canot do that which ye wolde.
18 But and yf ye be ledde of the sprete then are ye not vnder the lawe.
19 The dedes of the flesshe are manyfest whiche are these advoutrie fornicacio vnclenes wantannes
20 ydolatrye witchecraft hatred variaunce zele wrath stryfe sedicion sectes envyinge murther dronkenes glottony and soche lyke: of the which I tell you before as I have tolde you in tyme past that they which comit soche thinges shall not inherite ye kyngdome of God.
21 (OMITTED TEXT)
22 But ye frute of sprete is loue ioye peace longesufferinge getlenes goodnes faythfulnes
23 meknes temperancye. Agaynst suche ther is no lawe.
24 They ye are Christis have crucified the flesshe with the appetites and lustes
25 Yf we lyve in the sprete let vs walke in the sprete.
Galatians 5
Coverdale(i)
1 Stonde fast therfore in the libertye wherwith Christ hath made vs fre, and be not wrapped agayne in the yocke off bondage.
2 Beholde, I Paul saye vnto you: Yf ye be circumcysed, Christ profiteth you nothinge at all.
3 I testifye agayne vnto euery man which is circumcysed, that he is bounde to kepe the whole lawe.
4 Ye are gone quyte from Christ, as many off you as wylbe made righteous by the lawe, and are fallen from grace.
5 But we wayte in the sprete off hope, to be made righteous by faith.
6 For in Christ Iesu nether is circumcision eny thinge worth ner vncircumcision, but faith which by loue is mightie in operacion.
7 Ye ranne well, who was a let vnto you, that ye shulde not obeye the trueth?
8 Soch councell is not of him that hath called you.
9 A litle leuen sowreth the whole lompe of dowe.
10 I haue trust towarde you in ye LORDE, that ye wylbe none otherwyse mynded. But he that troubleth you, shal beare his iudgment, what so euer he be.
11 Brethren yf I yet preach circumcision, why do I suffre persecucion? then had the slaunder off the crosse ceassed.
12 Wolde God they were roted out fro amoge you, which trouble you.
13 But brethre, ye are called vnto liberty, onely let not youre libertie be an occasion vnto the flesh, but by loue serue one another.
14 For all the lawe is fulfylled in one worde, namely in this: loue thy neghboure as thy selfe.
15 But yf ye byte and deuoure one another, take hede, that ye be not consumed one of another.
16 I saye: Walke in the sprete, and so shal ye not fulfill the lustes off the flesshe.
17 For the flesh lusteth agaynst the sprete, and the sprete agaynst the flesh. These are contrary one to the other, so that ye can not do that which ye wolde:
18 But and yf ye be led of the sprete, then are ye not vnder the lawe.
19 The dedes of ye flesh are manifest, which are these: Aduoutrye, whordome, vnclenes, wantanes,
20 Idolatrye, witchcraft, hatred, variaunce, zele, wrath, stryfe, sedicion, sectes,
21 envyenge, murthur, dronkennes, glotony, and soch like: of the which I tell you before, as I haue tolde you in tyme past, that they which commytte soch, shal not inheret the kyngdome of God.
22 But the frute of the sprete, is loue, ioye, peace, longe sufferinge, getlenes, goodnesse, faithfulnes,
23 mekenesse, teperaunce, Agaynst soch is not ye lawe:
24 But they that are Christes, haue crucified their flesh, with the lustes and desyres.
25 Yf we lyue in the sprete, let vs walke also in the sprete.
26 Let vs not be vayne glorious, prouokinge one another, and envyenge another.
Matthew(i)
1 Stande fast therfore in the lybertye wherewith Christ hath made vs free and wrappe not your selues againe in the yoke of bondage.
2 Beholde I Paule saye vnto you, that yf ye be circumcysed Christe shall profyte you nothynge at all.
3 I testifye agayne to euery man whiche is circumcysed that he is bounde to kepe the whole lawe.
4 Ye are gone quyte from Christe as manye as are iustifyed by the law, and are fallen from grace.
5 We loke for, and hope in the spiryte, to be iustifyed thorow fayth.
6 For in Iesu Christ nether is circumcysion any thing worth, neyther yet vncircumcysyon, but fayth which by loue is myghtye in operacyon.
7 Ye dyd runne wel: who was a let to you, that ye shoulde not obeye the trueth?
8 Euen that counsell that is not of hym that called you.
9 A lytell leuen doeth leuen the whole lumpe of dowe.
10 I haue trust towarde you in the Lorde, that ye wyll be none otherwyse mynded. He that troubleth you, shall beare hys iudgemente, whatsoeuer he be.
11 Brethren, yf I yet preache circumcysyon: why do I yet suffer persecutyon? For then had the offence whiche the crosse geueth, ceased.
12 I woulde to God they were separated from you, whiche trouble you.
13 Brethren ye were called into lybertye onelye let not youre lybertye be an occasyon vnto the fleshe, but in loue serue one another.
14 For all the lawe is fulfylled in one worde: whiche is thys: thou shalte loue thyne neyghboure as thy selfe.
15 Yf ye byte and deuour one another: take hede leaste ye be consumed one of another.
16 I saye: walke in the spyryte, and fulfyl not the lustes of the fleshe.
17 For the flesh lusteth contrarye to the spirite, and the spirite contrarye to the fleshe. These are contrarye one to the other, so that ye cannot do that which ye would.
18 But and yf ye be led of the spyryte, then are ye not vnder the lawe.
19 The dedes of the flesh are manyfeste, which are these aduoutrye, fornicacyon, vncleannes, wantonnes,
20 Idolatrye wytchecrafte, hatred, varyaunce, zele, wrathe stryfe, sedityon, sectes,
21 enuiynge, murther, drounkennes, glottonye, and suche lyke: of the whiche I tell you before, as I haue tolde you in tymes past, that they whiche commytte suche thynges shall not enheryte the kingdome of God.
22 But the frute of the spiryte, is loue, ioye peace, longe sufferynge, gentylnes, goodnes, faithfulnes,
23 mekenes, temperauncye. Against suche there is no lawe.
24 They that are Christes haue crucyfyed the fleshe with the appetytes and lustes.
25 If we lyue in the spyryte: let vs walke in the spyryte.
26 Let vs not be vayne gloryouse, prouokynge one another, and enuyinge one another.

1 Stande fast therfore in the liberty wherwith Christ hath made vs fre, and wrappe not youre selues agayne in the yoke of bondage.
2 Beholde, I Paul saye vnto you, that yf ye be circumcised, Christ shall proffyte you nothynge at all.
3 I testyfye agayne to euery man which is circumcised, that he is bonde to kepe the whole lawe.
4 Christ is become but in vayne vnto you. As many of you as are iustifyed by the lawe are fallen from grace.
5 We loke for, and hope in the sprete to be iustifyed thorowe fayth.
6 For in Iesu Christ, nether is circumcisyon any thynge worth, nether yet vncircumcysion but faith which worketh by loue.
7 Ye dyd runne well: who was a let vnto you, that ye shulde not beleue the trueth?
8 Euen the counsell which came not of hym that calleth you.
9 A lytell leuen doth leuen the whole lompe of dowe.
10 I haue trust towarde you in the Lorde, that ye shalbe none otherwyse minded. But he that troubleth you, shall beare his iudgement whatsoeuer he be.
11 Brethren, yf I yet preach circumcisyon, why do I then yet suffre persecucyon? Then is the slaunder of the crosse ceased.
12 I wolde to God, they were separated from you, which trouble you:
13 Brethren, ye were called into libertye: only let not youre libertye be an occasion vnto the flesshe: but by loue serue one another.
14 For all the lawe is fulfylled in one worde, which is this: thou shalt loue thyne neyghboure as thy selfe.
15 If ye byte and deuoure one another: take hede, lest ye be lykewyse consumed one of another.
16 I saye: walke in the sprete, and fulfyll not the lust of the flesshe.
17 For the flesshe lusteth contrary to the sprete, and the sprete contrary to the flesshe. These are contrarye one to the other, so that ye cannot do whatsoeuer ye wolde.
18 But and yf ye be led of the sprete, then are ye not vnder the lawe.
19 The dedes of the flesshe are manyfeste, which are these: aduoutery, fornicacion, vnclennes, wantannes,
20 worshypping of ymages, witchcraft, hatred, variaunce, zele, wrathe, stryfe, sedicyons, sectes,
21 enuyinge, murther, dronkennes, glottonye, and soche lyke: of the which I tell you before as I haue told you in tyme past, that they which commyt soch thinges shall not be inheritours of the kyngdome of God.
22 Contrarely, the frute of the sprete is, loue, ioye, peace, longe sufferinge, gentylnes, goodnes, faythfulnes,
23 mekenes, temperauncye. Agaynst suche there is no lawe.
24 They trulye that are Christes, haue crucifyed the flesshe with the affeccions and lustes.
25 If we lyue in the sprete, let vs walke in the sprete.
26 Let vs not be desirous of vayne glorye, prouokinge one another, enuying one another.

1 Stande fast therfore in the libertie wherwith Christe hath made vs free, and be not intangled agayne with ye yoke of bondage
2 Beholde I Paul saye vnto you, that yf ye be, circumcised Christe shall profite you nothyng
3 For I testifie agayne to euery man which is circumcised, that he is a detter to do the whole lawe
4 Christe is become but vayne to you, as many of you as are iustified by the lawe, are fallen from grace
5 For we through the spirite, wayte for the hope of ryghteousnes by fayth
6 For in Iesus Christe, neither is circumcision any thing woorth, neither yet vncircumcision: but fayth, which worketh by loue
7 Ye dyd runne well, who was a let vnto you, that ye should not obey ye trueth
8 Not the perfection of hym that called you
9 A litle leauen, doth leauen the whole lumpe of dowe
10 I haue truste towarde you in the Lorde, that ye wyll be none otherwyse mynded: But he that troubleth you, shall beare iudgement, whatsoeuer he be
11 And brethren, if I yet preache circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? Then is the slaunder of the crosse ceassed
12 I woulde to God they were cut of which trouble you
13 For brethren, ye haue ben called into libertie: Only let not libertie be an occasio to the flesshe, but by loue serue one another
14 For all the lawe is fulfylled in one worde, which is this: Thou shalt loue thy neyghbour as thy selfe
15 Yf ye byte and deuoure one another, take heede lest ye be consumed one of another
16 Then I say, walke in the spirite, and ye shall not fulfyll the lust of the flesshe
17 For the flesshe lusteth contrary to the spirite, and the spirite contrary to the flesshe. These are contrary one to the other, so that ye can not do what ye woulde
18 But and yf ye be ledde of the spirite, then are ye not vnder the lawe
19 The deedes of the flesshe are manifest, which are these, adulterie, fornication, vncleannesse, wantonnesse
20 Worshippyng of images, witchcrafte, hatred, variaunce, zeale, wrath, strife, seditions, sectes
21 Enuyinges, murthers, drunkennesse, gluttonies, and such lyke: of the whiche I tell you before, as I haue tolde you in tyme past, that they which do suche thinges, shall not inherite the kingdome of God
22 But the fruite of the spirite is, loue, ioye, peace, long sufferyng, gentlenesse, goodnesse, fayth
23 Mekenesse, temperauncie: agaynst such there is no lawe
24 They truely that are Christes, haue crucified the flesshe, with the affections and lustes
25 Yf we lyue in ye spirite, let vs walke in the spirite
26 Let vs not be desirous of vayne glorie, prouoking one another, enuying one another
