Many people refuse to obey God. All they do is talk about things that mean nothing. They try to fool others. No one does these things more than the circumcision group.

蓋有多人不服者、言虛誕、行誘惑、而奉割禮者為尤甚、

方今不可駕御者、實繁有徒、信口雌黃、自欺欺人尤以割禮中人為甚。

For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group.

For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party.

For there are many rebellious people who engage in useless talk and deceive others. This is especially true of those who insist on circumcision for salvation.

For there are many rebellious people, full of empty talk and deception, especially those from the circumcision party.

For there are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:

For there are many rebellious people, idle talkers, and deceivers, especially those with Jewish connections,

For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

Some have turned from these teachings. They would rather talk about things that have no meaning.

Peter went up to Jerusalem. There the Jewish believers found fault with him.

The people will turn their ears away from the truth. They will turn to stories that aren’t true.

Evil people and pretenders will go from bad to worse. They will fool others, and others will fool them.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit. Test the spirits to see if they belong to God. Many false prophets have gone out into the world.

But you do have this in your favor. You hate the way the Nicolaitans act. I hate it too.

Those people are trying hard to win you over. But it is not for your good. They want to take you away from us. They want you to commit yourselves to them.It is fine to be committed to something, if the purpose is good. And you shouldn’t be committed only when I am with you. You should always be committed.My dear children, I am in pain for you like I was when we first met. I have pain like a woman giving birth. And my pain will continue until Christ makes you like himself.I wish I could be with you now. I wish I could change my tone of voice. As it is, I don’t understand you.You who want to be under the authority of the law, tell me something. Don’t you know what the law says?

And I will keep on doing what I’m doing. That will stop those who claim they have things to brag about. They think they have a chance to be considered equal with us.People like that are false apostles. They are workers who tell lies. They only pretend to be apostles of Christ.That comes as no surprise. Even Satan himself pretends to be an angel of light.So it doesn’t surprise us that Satan’s servants also pretend to be serving God. They will finally get exactly what they deserve.

Christ has set us free to enjoy our freedom. So remain strong in the faith. Don’t let the chains of slavery hold you again.Here is what I, Paul, say to you. Don’t let yourselves be circumcised. If you do, Christ won’t be of any value to you.I say it again. Every man who lets himself be circumcised must obey the whole law.Some of you are trying to be made right with God by obeying the law. You have been separated from Christ. You have fallen away from God’s grace.

We have heard that some of our people came to you and caused trouble. You were upset by what they said. But we had given them no authority to go.

I am amazed. You are so quickly deserting the one who chose you. He chose you to live in the grace that Christ has provided. You are turning to a different“ good news.”What you are accepting is really not the good news at all. It seems that some people have gotten you all mixed up. They are trying to twist the good news about Christ.But suppose even we should preach a different“ good news.” Suppose even an angel from heaven should preach it. Suppose it is different from the good news we gave you. Then let anyone who does that be cursed by God.

This matter came up because some people had slipped in among us. They had pretended to be believers. They wanted to find out about the freedom we have because we belong to Christ Jesus. They wanted to make us slaves again.

Suppose someone teaches something different than I have taught. Suppose that person doesn’t agree with the true teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. Suppose they don’t agree with godly teaching.Then that person is proud and doesn’t understand anything. They like to argue more than they should. They can’t agree about what words mean. All of this results in wanting what others have. It causes fighting, harmful talk, and evil distrust.It stirs up trouble all the time among people whose minds are twisted by sin. The truth they once had has been taken away from them. They think they can get rich by being godly.

So people who are dying will be fooled by this evil. These people are dying because they refuse to love the truth. The truth would save them.So God will fool them completely. Then they will believe the lie.Many will not believe the truth. They will take pleasure in evil. They will be judged.

But there were also false prophets among the people. In the same way there will be false teachers among you. In secret they will bring in teachings that will destroy you. They will even turn against the Lord and Master who died to pay for their sins. So they will quickly destroy themselves.Many people will follow their lead. These people will do the same evil things the false teachers do. They will cause people to think badly about the way of truth.

And command them not to spend their time on stories that are made up. They must not waste time on family histories that never end. These things only lead to fights about ideas. They don’t help God’s work move forward. His work is done by faith.

Certain people came down from Judea to Antioch. Here is what they were teaching the believers.“ Moses commanded you to be circumcised,” they said.“ If you aren’t, you can’t be saved.”

Dear children, we are living in the last days. You have heard that the great enemy of Christ is coming. But even now many enemies of Christ have already come. That’s how we know that these are the last days.

I know that after I leave, wild wolves will come in among you. They won’t spare any of the sheep.

Suppose people think their beliefs and how they live are both right. But they don’t control what they say. Then they are fooling themselves. Their beliefs and way of life are not worth anything at all.

We will no longer be babies in the faith. We won’t be like ships tossed around by the waves. We won’t be blown here and there by every new teaching. We won’t be blown around by cleverness and tricks. Certain people use them to hide their evil plans.

I am warning you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who try to keep you from staying together. They want to trip you up. They teach you things opposite to what you have learned. Stay away from them.People like that are not serving Christ our Lord. They are serving only themselves. With smooth talk and with words they don’t mean they fool people who don’t know any better.

You foolish people of Galatia! Who has put you under an evil spell? When I preached, I clearly showed you that Jesus Christ had been nailed to the cross.

‘ But I have a few things against you. Some of your people follow the teaching of Balaam. He taught Balak to lead the people of Israel into sin. So they ate food that had been offered to statues of gods. And they committed sexual sins.

Watch out for those dogs. They are people who do evil things. When they circumcise, it is nothing more than a useless cutting of the body.But we have been truly circumcised. We serve God by the power of his Spirit. We boast about what Christ Jesus has done. We don’t put our trust in who we are or what we can do.
