¹O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified?

¹ܐܘ ܚܤܝܪܝ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܓܠܛܝܐ ܡܢܘ ܚܤܡ ܒܟܘܢ ܕܗܐ ܐܝܟ ܗܘ ܕܡܨܪ ܨܝܪ ܗܘܐ ܩܕܡ ܥܝܢܝܟܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܟܕ ܨܠܝܒ ܀

²This only would I learn from you. Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

²ܗܕܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܕܥ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܢܡܘܤܐ ܢܤܒܬܘܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܫܡܥܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܀

³Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh?

³ܗܟܢܐ ܤܟܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܫܪܝܬܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܘܗܫܐ ܒܒܤܪ ܡܫܠܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀

⁴Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.

⁴ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܩܐ ܤܝܒܪܬܘܢ ܘܐܫܬܘܦ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܩܐ ܀

⁵He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

⁵ܗܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܝܗܒ ܒܟܘܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܤܥܪ ܒܟܘܢ ܚܝܠܐ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܢܡܘܤܐ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܫܡܥܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܀

⁶Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.

⁶ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܗܝܡܢ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܬܚܫܒܬ ܠܗ ܠܙܕܝܩܘ ܀

⁷Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

⁷ܕܥܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܢܝܐ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܀

⁸And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying,] In thee shall all the nations be blessed.

⁸ܡܛܠ ܓܝܪ ܕܩܕܡ ܝܕܥ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܗܘ ܡܙܕܕܩܝܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܩܕܡ ܤܒܪ ܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܡܪ ܟܬܒܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܕܒܟ ܢܬܒܪܟܘܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܀

⁹So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.

⁹ܡܕܝܢ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܗܘ ܡܬܒܪܟܝܢ ܒܐܒܪܗܡ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܀

¹⁰For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.

¹⁰ܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܢܡܘܤܐ ܬܚܝܬ ܠܘܛܬܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܝܛ ܗܘ ܟܠܡܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܟܠ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܢܐ ܀

¹¹Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;

¹¹ܕܠܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܙܕܕܩ ܐܢܫ ܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܕܐ ܓܠܝܐ ܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܕܙܕܝܩܐ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܢܚܐ ܀

¹²and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.

¹²ܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܟܬܝܒܢ ܒܗ ܢܚܐ ܒܗܝܢ ܀

¹³Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

¹³ܠܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܙܒܢܢ ܡܢ ܠܘܛܬܐ ܕܢܡܘܤܐ ܘܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܚܠܦܝܢ ܠܘܛܬܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܝܛ ܗܘ ܟܠܡܢ ܕܡܬܬܠܐ ܒܩܝܤܐ ܀

¹⁴that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

¹⁴ܕܒܥܡܡܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܘܪܟܬܗ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܚܢܢ ܢܤܒ ܫܘܘܕܝܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܀

¹⁵Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man's covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.

¹⁵ܐܚܝ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܝܬ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܒܪܢܫܐ ܕܐܫܬܪܪܬ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܡܤܠܐ ܐܘ ܡܫܚܠܦ ܒܗ ܡܕܡ ܀

¹⁶Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

¹⁶ܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܡܠܟ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܘܠܙܪܥܗ ܘܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܠܙܪܥܝܟ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܙܪܥܟ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܚܕ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

¹⁷Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.

¹⁷ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܐܫܬܪܪܬ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܘ ܕܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܐܪܒܥ ܡܐܐ ܘܬܠܬܝܢ ܫܢܝܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܤܠܝܗ ܘܢܒܛܠ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܀

¹⁸For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.

¹⁸ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܝ ܝܪܬܘܬܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܢ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܕܝܢ ܒܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܗܘ ܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܐܠܗܐ ܀

¹⁹What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; [and it was] ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

¹⁹ܡܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܤܛܝܢܘܬܐ ܐܬܬܘܤܦ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܙܪܥܐ ܗܘ ܕܠܗ ܗܘܐ ܫܘܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܗܘ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܒܝܕ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܒܐܝܕܐ ܕܡܨܥܝܐ ܀

²⁰Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one; but God is one.

²⁰ܡܨܥܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܢ ܚܕ ܗܘ ܀

²¹Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.

²¹ܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܤܩܘܒܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܤ ܐܠܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܬܝܗܒ ܗܘܐ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܚܝܘ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܡܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܘܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܀

²²But the scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

²²ܐܠܐ ܚܒܫ ܟܬܒܐ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܬܚܝܬ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܕܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܬܝܗܒ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܀

²³But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

²³ܥܕܠܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܐܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܢܛܪ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܟܕ ܚܒܝܫܝܢܢ ܠܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܥܬܝܕܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܡܬܓܠܝܘ ܀

²⁴So that the law is become our tutor [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

²⁴ܢܡܘܤܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܪܐܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܠܘܬ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܡܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܢܙܕܕܩ ܀

²⁵But now faith that is come, we are no longer under a tutor.

²⁵ܟܕ ܐܬܬ ܕܝܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܬܚܝܬ ܬܪܐܐ ܀

²⁶For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus.

²⁶ܟܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܒܢܝܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

²⁷For as many of you as were baptized into Christ did put on Christ.

²⁷ܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܡܕܬܘܢ ܠܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܒܫܬܘܢ ܀

²⁸There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female; for ye all are one [man] in Christ Jesus.

²⁸ܠܝܬ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܪܡܝܐ ܠܝܬ ܥܒܕܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܪ ܚܐܪܐ ܠܝܬ ܕܟܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܩܒܬܐ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܚܕ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

²⁹And if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, heirs according to promise.

²⁹ܘܐܢ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܟܝܠ ܙܪܥܗ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܘܝܪܬܐ ܒܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܀
