Galatians 6:1-13 ▼

1 Brothers, even if a man should be overtaken in some trespass, you⁺ the spiritual ones, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking at yourself, lest you also be tempted.

2 Bear one another’s burdens and thus you⁺ will fulfill the law of Christ.

3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something being nothing, he deceives himself.

4 But let each test his own work, and then he will have boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another.

5 For each will bear his own load.

6 Now let the one being instructed in the word share with the one instructing in all good things.

7 Do not be led astray: God is not mocked. For whatever a man may sow, this also he will reap.

8 For the one sowing to his flesh, from the flesh will reap corruption; but the one sowing to the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

9 And we should not grow fainthearted in doing good, for in due time we will reap, not giving up.

10 So then, as we have opportunity, we should work good toward all, and especially toward those of the household of the faith.

11 See what large letters I have written to you⁺ with my own hand!

12 As many as want to have a fair appearance in the flesh, these compel you⁺ to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

13 For not even those being circumcised keep the law themselves, but they want you⁺ to be circumcised that they may boast in your⁺ flesh.
