< Galatians 6 >
1 Brothers, even if a man may be overtaken in any trespass, you who [are] spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering yourself—lest you also may be tempted.
弟兄们,若有人偶然被过犯所胜,你们属灵的人就当用温柔的心把他挽回过来;又当自己小心,恐怕也被引诱。
2 Bear the burdens of one another, and so fill up the law of the Christ,
你们各人的重担要互相担当,如此,就完全了基督的律法。
3 for if anyone thinks [himself] to be something—being nothing—he deceives himself;
人若无有,自己还以为有,就是自欺了。
4 and let each one prove his own work, and then he will have the glorying in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to the other,
各人应当察验自己的行为;这样,他所夸的就专在自己,不在别人了,
5 for each one will bear his own burden.
因为各人必担当自己的担子。
6 And let him who is instructed in the word share with him who is instructing in all good things.
在道理上受教的,当把一切需用的供给施教的人。
7 Do not be led astray: God is not mocked; for what a man may sow—that he will also reap,
不要自欺, 神是轻慢不得的。人种的是什么,收的也是什么。
8 because he who is sowing to his own flesh, of the flesh will reap corruption; and he who is sowing to the Spirit, of the Spirit will reap continuous life; (aiōnios )
顺着情欲撒种的,必从情欲收败坏;顺着圣灵撒种的,必从圣灵收永生。 (aiōnios )
9 and in doing good we should not be weary, for at the proper time we will reap—not desponding;
我们行善,不可丧志;若不灰心,到了时候就要收成。
10 therefore, then, as we have opportunity, may we work the good to all, and especially to those of the household of faith.
所以,有了机会就当向众人行善,向信徒一家的人更当这样。
11 You see in how large letters I have written to you with my own hand;
请看我亲手写给你们的字是何等的大呢!
12 as many as are willing to make a good appearance in the flesh, these constrain you to be circumcised—only that they may not be persecuted for the Cross of the Christ,
凡希图外貌体面的人都勉强你们受割礼,无非是怕自己为基督的十字架受逼迫。
13 for neither do those circumcised keep the Law themselves, but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
他们那些受割礼的,连自己也不守律法;他们愿意你们受割礼,不过要借着你们的肉体夸口。
14 And for me, let it not be—to glory, except in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world;
但我断不以别的夸口,只夸我们主耶稣基督的十字架;因这十字架,就我而论,世界已经钉在十字架上;就世界而论,我已经钉在十字架上。
15 for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation;
受割礼不受割礼都无关紧要,要紧的就是作新造的人。
16 and as many as walk by this rule—peace on them, and kindness, and on the Israel of God!
凡照此理而行的,愿平安、怜悯加给他们,和 神的以色列民。
17 From now on, let no one give me trouble, for I carry the scars of the Lord Jesus in my body.
从今以后,人都不要搅扰我,因为我身上带着耶稣的印记。
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit, brothers! Amen.
弟兄们,愿我主耶稣基督的恩常在你们心里。阿们!
