1 O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you¹ that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed² among you as crucified?  ‡

2 This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, ^aor by the hearing of faith?  ‡

3 Are you so foolish? ^aHaving begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by ^bthe flesh?  ‡

4 ^aHave you suffered so¹ many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?  ‡

5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?—
