Galatians 6

¹Brothers , if anyone is caught in any transgression , you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness . Keep watch on yourself , lest you too be tempted .

²Bear one another’s burdens , and so fulfill the law of Christ .

³For if anyone thinks he is something , when he is nothing , he deceives himself .

⁴But let each one test his own work , and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor .

⁵For each will have to bear his own load .

⁶Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches .

⁷Do not be deceived : God is not mocked , for whatever one sows , that will he also reap .

⁸For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption , but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life .

⁹And let us not grow weary of doing good , for in due season we will reap , if we do not give up .

¹⁰So then , as we have opportunity , let us do good to everyone , and especially to those who are of the household of faith .

¹¹See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand .

¹²It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised , and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ .

¹³For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law , but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh .

¹⁴But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ , by which the world has been crucified to me , and I to the world .

¹⁵For neither circumcision counts for anything , nor uncircumcision , but a new creation .

¹⁶And as for all who walk by this rule , peace and mercy be upon them , and upon the Israel of God .

¹⁷From now on let no one cause me trouble , for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus .

¹⁸The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit , brothers . Amen .
