6:1 Brethren, even if a man be overtaken in some offense, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted. |
6:2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. |
6:3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he is deceiving himself. |
6:4 But let each one prove his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another; |
6:5 For each one shall bear his own burden. |
6:6 Let the one who is being taught in the Word share all his good things with the one who is teaching him. |
6:7 Do not be deceived. God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that shall he also reap. |
6:8 For the one who sows to his own flesh shall reap corruption from the flesh. But the one who sows to the Spirit shall reap eternal life from the Spirit. |
6:9 Now we should not lose heart in doing well because we who do not faint will reap in due time. |
6:10 So then, as we have opportunity, we should do good to all, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. |
6:11 See with what large letters I have written to you with my own hand. |
6:12 As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh, these are the ones who compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ; |
6:13 For those who are circumcised, neither do they keep the law themselves, but they want you to be circumcised in order that they may boast in your flesh. |
6:14 But as for me, MAY IT NEVER BE that I boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through Whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. |
6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any spiritual force; rather, it is a new creation that avails. |
6:16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God. |
6:17 From this time forth, let no one trouble me, for I bear the brands of the Lord Jesus in my own body. |
6:18 Brethren, may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. |
