⁴⁵ For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

¹³ You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh ^[a]; rather, serve one another humbly in love.

Footnotes:

^[a] Galatians 5:13 In contexts like this, the Greek word for flesh (sarx) refers to the sinful state of human beings, often presented as a power in opposition to the Spirit; also in verses 16, 17, 19 and 24; and in 6:8.

⁷ Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,

¹⁰ Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.
