Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.
1基督釋放了我們，叫我們得以自由。所以要站立得穩，不要再被奴僕的軛挾制。
2Take notice: I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.
2我－ 保羅 告訴你們，若受割禮，基督就與你們無益了。
3Again I testify to every man who gets himself circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.
3我再指着凡受割禮的人確實地說，他是欠着行全律法的債。
4You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
4你們這要靠律法稱義的，是與基督隔絕，從恩典中墜落了。
5But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the hope of righteousness.
5我們靠着 聖 靈，憑着信心，等候所盼望的義。
6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. All that matters is faith, expressed through love.
6原來在基督耶穌裏，受割禮不受割禮全無功效，惟獨使人生發仁愛的信心才有功效。
7You were running so well. Who has obstructed you from obeying the truth?
7你們向來跑得好，有誰攔阻你們，叫你們不順從真理呢？
8Such persuasion does not come from the One who calls you.
8這樣的勸導不是出於那召你們的。
9A little leaven works through the whole batch of dough.
9一點麵酵能使全團都發起來。
10I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.
10我在主裏很信你們必不懷別樣的心；但攪擾你們的，無論是誰，必擔當他的罪名。
11Now, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.
11弟兄們，我若仍舊傳割禮，為甚麼還受逼迫呢？若是這樣，那十字架討厭的地方就沒有了。
12As for those who are agitating you, I wish they would proceed to emasculate themselves!
12恨不得那攪亂你們的人把自己割絕了。
13For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love.
13弟兄們，你們蒙召是要得自由，只是不可將你們的自由當作放縱情慾的機會，總要用愛心互相服事。
14The entire law is fulfilled in a single decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
14因為全律法都包在「愛人如己」這一句話之內了。
15But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.
15你們要謹慎，若相咬相吞，只怕要彼此消滅了。
16So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
16我說，你們當順着 聖 靈而行，就不放縱肉體的情慾了。
17For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you want.
17因為情慾和 聖 靈相爭， 聖 靈和情慾相爭，這兩個是彼此相敵，使你們不能做所願意做的。
18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
18但你們若被 聖 靈引導，就不在律法以下。
19The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery;
19情慾的事都是顯而易見的，就如姦淫、污穢、邪蕩、
20idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions,
20拜偶像、邪術、仇恨、爭競、忌恨、惱怒、結黨、紛爭、異端、
21and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
21嫉妒、醉酒、荒宴等類。我從前告訴你們，現在又告訴你們，行這樣事的人必不能承受上帝的國。
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
22聖靈所結的果子，就是仁愛、喜樂、和平、忍耐、恩慈、良善、信實、
23gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
23溫柔、節制。這樣的事沒有律法禁止。
24Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
24凡屬基督耶穌的人，是已經把肉體連肉體的邪情私慾同釘在十字架上了。
25Since we live by the Spirit, let us walk in step with the Spirit.
25我們若是靠 聖 靈得生，就當靠 聖 靈行事。
26Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying one another.
26不要貪圖虛名，彼此惹氣，互相嫉妒。
