< Galatians 6 >
1 Brothers, even if someone is caught in some wrongdoing, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also are not tempted.
My brethren, if one of you should be overtaken in a fault, do ye who are of the Spirit recover him, in a spirit of meekness: and be ye cautious, lest ye also be tempted.
2 Bear one another's burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ.
And bear ye one another's burdens, that so ye may fulfill the law of the Messiah.
3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
For if any one thinketh himself to be something, when he is not, he deceiveth himself.
4 But let each one test his own work, and then he will take pride in himself and not in his neighbor.
But let a man examine his own conduct; and then his glorying will be within himself, and not in others.
5 For every person will bear his own load.
For every man must take up his own load.
6 But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.
And let him that heareth the word, communicate to him who instructeth him, in all good things.
7 Do not be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a person sows, that he will also reap.
Do not mistake; God is not deceived; for what a man soweth, that also will he reap.
8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap everlasting life. (aiōnios )
He who soweth in the flesh, reapeth from the flesh corruption: and he who soweth in the Spirit, will from the Spirit reap life everlasting. (aiōnios )
9 Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we do not give up.
And while we do what is good, let it not be wearisome to us; for the time will come when we shall reap, and it will not be tedious to us.
10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do what is good toward all people, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
Now, therefore, while we have the opportunity, let us practice good works towards all men, and especially towards them of the household of faith.
11 See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.
Behold, this epistle have I written to you with my own hand.
12 As many as desire to make a good showing in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
They who are disposed to glory in the flesh, they urge you to become circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted on account of the cross of the Messiah.
13 For even they who receive circumcision do not keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.
For not even they themselves, who are circumcised, keep the law: but they wish you to become circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
14 But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
But as for me, let me not glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus the Messiah; by whom the world is crucified to me, and I am crucified to the world.
15 For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
For circumcision is nothing; neither is uncircumcision; but a new creation.
16 As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God's Israel.
And they who press forward in this path, peace be on them, and mercy; and on the Israel of God.
17 From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of Jesus branded on my body.
Henceforth let no one put trouble upon me; for I bear in my body the marks of our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
My brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, be with your spirit. Amen.
