Carry One Another’s Burdens

1Brethren, Yf eny ma be ouertaken of a faute, ye which are spirituall, enfourme him with a meke sprete: and considre thine owne selfe, that thou also be not tempted. 2Beare ye one anothers burthe, and so shal ye fulfyll the lawe of Christ. 3But yf eny man thinke himselfe to be somwhat (whan in dede he is nothinge) the same disceaueth himselfe. 4Let euery man proue his owne worke, and the shal he haue reioysinge in his awne selfe, and not in another. 5For euery one shal beare his owne burthen.

6But let him that is taughte with the worde, mynister in all good thinges, vnto him that teacheth him. 7Be not disceaued, God wil not be mocked. For what soeuer a man soweth, that shal he reape. 8He that soweth vpon the flesh, shal of the flesh reape destruccion: But he that soweth vpon ye sprete, shal of the sprete reape life euerlastinge. 9Let vs not be weery of well doynge: for wha the tyme is come, we shal reape without ceassinge. 10Whyle we haue tyme therfore, let vs do good vnto all men but specially vnto the which are of ye housholde of faith.

Final Warnings and Blessings

11Beholde, with how many wordes I haue wrytten vnto you with myne awne hande. 12They that wil please in the flesh, constrayne you to be circumcysed, onely lest they shulde be persecuted with the crosse of Christ. 13For eue they them selues which are circumcysed, kepe not the lawe, but wolde haue you circucysed, that they mighte reioyse in youre flesh. 14But God forbyd that I shulde reioyse, saue onely in the crosse of oure LORDE Iesus Christ, wherby the worlde is crucified vnto me, and I vnto the worlde. 15For in Christ Iesu nether circucision avayleth eny thinge, ner vncircumcision, but a new creature.

16And as many as walke acordynge to this rule, peace and mercy be vpon the, and vpon Israel of God.

17From hence forth let no man put me to busynesse, for I beare in my body the markes of the LORDE Iesu.

18Brethren, the grace of oure LORDE Iesu Christ be with youre sprete Amen.
