< Galatians 6 >
1 Brethren! if a man should even be overtaken in any fault, ye, the spiritual, be restoring such a one, in a spirit of meekness, looking to thyself, lest, even thou, be put to the test.
Brethren, if even a man be taken in some fault, ye who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering thyself lest thou also be tempted.
2 One another’s burdens, be ye bearing, and, so, fill up the law of the Christ.
Bear one another's burdens, and thus fulfil the law of the Christ.
3 For, if any one thinketh he is something, when he is, nothing, he deceiveth himself;
For if any man reputes himself to be something, being nothing, he deceives himself;
4 But, his own work, let each one be putting to the proof, and, then, for himself alone, the matter of boasting, shall he have, and not for some other,
but let each prove his own work, and then he will have his boast in what belongs to himself alone, and not in what belongs to another.
5 For, each one, his own proper load, shall bear: —
For each shall bear his own burden.
6 Howbeit, let him who is being orally instructed in the word, have fellowship with him that is so instructing him, in all good things.
Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things.
7 Be not deceiving yourselves! God, is not to be mocked; for, whatsoever a man soweth, the same, shall he also reap, —
Be not deceived: God is not mocked; for whatever a man shall sow, that also shall he reap.
8 Because, he that soweth into his own flesh, out of the flesh, shall reap corruption, whereas, he that soweth into the Spirit, out of the Spirit, shall reap age-abiding life. (aiōnios )
For he that sows to his own flesh, shall reap corruption from the flesh; but he that sows to the Spirit, from the Spirit shall reap eternal life: (aiōnios )
9 And, in doing that which is honourable, let us not be fainthearted; for, in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not.
but let us not lose heart in doing good; for in due time, if we do not faint, we shall reap.
10 Hence, then, as we have opportunity, let us be working what is good, towards all, —but, especially, towards the family of the faith.
So then, as we have occasion, let us do good towards all, and specially towards those of the household of faith.
11 See! with what large letters, unto you, I have written, with my own hand: —
See how long a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
12 As many as are wishing to make a good show in flesh, the same, are compelling you to get circumcised, —only that, for the cross of Christ [Jesus], they may not be suffering persecution!
As many as desire to have a fair appearance in [the] flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted because of the cross of Christ.
13 For, not even they who are getting circumcised, are, themselves, observing law, —but are wishing you to be circumcised, that, in your flesh, they may boast themselves.
For neither do they that are circumcised themselves keep the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.
14 With me, however, far be it! to be boasting, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, —whereby, unto me, a world hath been crucified, and, I, unto a world;
But far be it from me to boast save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom [the] world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
15 For neither circumcision is anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation; —
For [in Christ Jesus] neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision; but new creation.
16 And, as many as, by this rule, shall walk, peace be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
17 For the rest, annoyances, unto me, let no one be offering; for, I, the brandmarks of Jesus, in my body, am bearing.
For the rest let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.
18 The favour of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
