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.
