| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Brothers, if someone is caught in any wrongdoing, you who are spiritual should restore such a person with a gentle spirit, watching out for yourselves so you also won't be tempted. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2Carry one another's burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3For if anyone considers himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4But each person should examine his own work, and then he will have a reason for boasting in himself alone, and not in respect to someone else. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5For each person will have to carry his own load. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6The one who is taught the message must share all his good things with the teacher. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Don't be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows he will also reap, |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8because the one who sows to his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9So we must not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don't give up. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10Therefore, as we have opportunity, we must work for the good of all, especially for those who belong to the household of faith. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Look at what large letters I use as I write to you in my own handwriting. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Those who want to make a good impression in the flesh are the ones who would compel you to be circumcised--but only to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13For even the circumcised don't keep the law themselves; however, they want you to be circumcised in order to boast about your flesh. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15For both circumcision and uncircumcision mean nothing; what matters instead is a new creation. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16May peace come to all those who follow this standard, and mercy to the Israel of God! |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17From now on, let no one cause me trouble, because I bear on my body scars for the cause of Jesus. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Brothers, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. |
