  ²⁸We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

  ²⁹Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn’t he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,

  ³⁰since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.

  ³¹Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.

  ¹What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh?

  ²For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God.

  ³For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”

  ²²But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

  ²³gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

  ²⁴Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

  ²⁵If we live by the Spirit, let’s also walk by the Spirit.

  ²⁶Let’s not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another.

  ¹Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.

  ²Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

  ²⁴“Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.

  ²⁵The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock.

  ²⁶Everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn’t do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.

  ²⁷The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.”

  ²⁸When Jesus had finished saying these things, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,

  ²⁹for he taught them with authority, and not like the scribes.

  ¹When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

  ²Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

  ³Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

  ⁴Jesus said to him, “See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
