< Galatians 6 >
1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye who are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in any fault, do you, who are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.
2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Bear with the weaknesses of one another, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3 For if a man thinketh himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
For if any one think himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself:
4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
but let each one prove his own work, and then he will have cause to boast with respect to himself only, and not with respect to another:
5 For every man shall bear his own burden.
for each one shall bear his own burden.
6 Let him that is taught in the word share with him that teacheth in all good things.
Let him that is instructed in the word share with his instructor in all good things.
7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that also shall he reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall from the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall from the Spirit reap life everlasting. (aiōnios )
For he that sows for his flesh shall from the flesh, reap corruption; but he that sows for his spirit shall from the Spirit reap life eternal. (aiōnios )
9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Let us not become weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially to them who are of the household of faith.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, but especially to those who are the household of the faith.
11 Ye see how large a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
You see how long a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
12 As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
As many as wish to make a fair show in the flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of the Christ.
13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
For not even do those very men, who are circumcised, keep the law: but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.
14 But may it never be that I should glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
But may I never boast save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision is any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
And as many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.
17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
Henceforward let no one give me trouble: for I bear in my body the wounds which I received on account of the Lord Jesus.
18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. To the Galatians written from Rome.
Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
