Bear and Share the Burdens
1 Brethren, if a man is1 overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of agentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.
2 aBear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill bthe law of Christ.
3 For aif anyone thinks himself to be something, when bhe is nothing, he deceives himself.
4 But alet each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and bnot in another.
5 For aeach one shall bear his own load.
Be Generous and Do Good
6 aLet him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.
