I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of
the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the
Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to
one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery,
fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry,
sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish
ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders,
drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand,
just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things
will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the
fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against
such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s
have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26
Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
