The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 55: Galatians: The Challoner Revision
Bible. Galatians
5:16. I say then: Walk in the spirit: and you shall not fulfill the
lusts of the flesh.
5:17. For the flesh lusteth against the spirit: and the spirit against
the flesh: For these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the
things that you would.
5:18. But if you are led by the spirit, you are not under the law.
5:19. Now the works of the flesh are manifest: which are fornication,
uncleanness, immodesty, luxury,
5:20. Idolatry, witchcrafts, enmities, contentions, emulations, wraths,
quarrels, dissensions, sects,
5:21. Envies, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like. Of the
which I foretell you, as I have foretold to you, that they who do such
things shall not obtain the kingdom of God.
5:22. But the fruit of the Spirit is, charity, joy, peace, patience,
benignity, goodness, longanimity,
5:23. Mildness, faith, modesty, continency, chastity. Against such there
is no law.
5:24. And they that are Christ's have crucified their flesh, with the
vices and concupiscences.
5:25. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
5:26. Let us not be made desirous of vain glory, provoking one another,
envying one another.
Galatians Chapter 6
He exhorts to charity, humility and all virtue. He glories in nothing
but in the cross of Christ.
6:1. Brethren, and if a man be overtaken in any fault, you, who are
spiritual, instruct such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering
thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
6:2. Bear ye one another's burdens: and so you shall fulfil the law of
Christ.
6:3. For if any man think himself to be some thing, whereas he is
nothing, he deceiveth himself.
6:4. But let every one prove his own work: and so he shall have glory in
himself only and not in another.
6:5. For every one shall bear his own burden.
6:6. And let him that is instructed in the word communicate to him that
instructeth him, in all good things.
6:7. Be not deceived: God is not mocked.
6:8. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. For he
that soweth in his flesh of the flesh also shall reap corruption. But he
that soweth in the spirit of the spirit shall reap life everlasting.
6:9. And in doing good, let us not fail. For in due time we shall reap,
not failing.
6:10. Therefore, whilst we have time, let us work good to all men, but
especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
6:11. See what a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
6:12. For as many as desire to please in the flesh, they constrain you
to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer the persecution of the
cross of Christ.
6:13. For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law: but
they will have you to be circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
6:14. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord
Jesus Christ: by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
