Galatians 6:4
 Galatians 6:4 
New International Version (© 2011)
Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else,

King James Bible
But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

American Standard Version
But let each man prove his own work, and then shall he have his glorying in regard of himself alone, and not of his neighbor.

Young's Literal Translation
and his own work let each one prove, and then in regard to himself alone the glorying he shall have, and not in regard to the other,

Galatians 6:4 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

Prove his own work - Let him examine himself and his conduct by the words and example of Christ; and if he find that they bear this touchstone, then he shall have rejoicing in himself alone, feeling that he resembles his Lord and Master, and not in another - not derive his consolation from comparing himself with another who may be weaker, or less instructed than himself. The only rule for a Christian is the word of Christ; the only pattern for his imitation is the example of Christ. He should not compare himself with others; they are not his standard. Christ hath left us an example that we should follow his steps.
