1無知的加拉太人哪，耶穌基督釘十字架，已經在你們眼前，誰又了你們呢？O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
2我只要問你們這一件：你們受了聖靈，是因行律法呢？是因聽信福音呢？I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
3你們既靠聖靈，如今還靠肉身成全嗎？你們是這樣的無知嗎？Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
4你們受苦如此之多，都是徒然的嗎？難道果真是徒然的嗎？Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
5那賜給你們聖靈，又在你們中間行異能的，是因你們行律法呢？是因你們聽信福音呢？Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
6正如「信 神，這就算為他的義」。So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7所以，你們要知道：那，就是亞伯拉罕的子孫。Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
8並且聖經既然預先看明， 神要叫外邦人因信稱義，就早已傳福音給亞伯拉罕，說：「萬國都必因你得福。」The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
9可見那以信為本的人和有信心的亞伯拉罕一同得福。So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10凡以行律法為本的，都是被咒詛的；因為經上記著：「凡不常照律法書上所記一切之事去行的，就被咒詛。」All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
11沒有一個人靠著律法在 神面前稱義，這是明顯的；因為經上說：「。」Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12律法原不本乎信，只說：「行這些事的，就必因此活著。」The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
13基督既為我們受（原文是成）了咒詛，就贖出我們脫離律法的咒詛；因為經上記著：「凡都是被咒詛的。」Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
14這便叫亞伯拉罕的福，因基督耶穌可以臨到外邦人，使我們因信得著所應許的聖靈。He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
15弟兄們，我且照著人的常話說：雖然是人的，若已經立定了，就沒有能廢棄或加增的。Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
16所應許的原是向亞伯拉罕和他子孫說的。 神並不是說「眾子孫」，指著許多人，乃是說「你那一個子孫」，指著一個人，就是基督。The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
17我是這麼說， 神預先所立的約，不能被那四百三十年以後的律法廢掉，叫應許歸於虛空。What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
18因為承受產業，若本乎律法，就不本乎應許；但 神是憑著應許把產業賜給亞伯拉罕。For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
19這樣說來，律法是為甚麼有的呢？原是為過犯添上的，等候那蒙應許的子孫來到，並且是藉經之手設立的。Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
20但中保本不是為一面作的； 神卻是一位。A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
21這樣，律法是與 神的應許反對嗎？斷乎不是！若曾傳一個能叫人得生的律法，義就誠然本乎律法了。Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
22但聖經把眾人都，使所應許的福因信耶穌基督，歸給那信的人。But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
23但這因信得救的理還未來以先，我們被在律法之下，直圈到那將來的真道顯明出來。Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
24這樣，律法是我們，引我們到基督那裡，使我們因信稱義。So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25但這因信得救的理既然來到，我們從此就不在師傅的手下了。Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
26所以，你們因信基督耶穌都是 神的兒子。You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27你們受洗歸入基督的都是了。For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28並不分猶太人、希臘人，自主的、為奴的，或男或女，因為你們在基督耶穌裡都成為一了。There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29你們既屬乎基督，就是亞伯拉罕的，是照著應許承受產業的了。And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
