6:1 |
Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted.
|
6:2 |
Bear one another's burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
|
6:3 |
For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
|
6:4 |
But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another.
|
6:5 |
For each one will bear his own load.
|
6:6 |
The one who is taught the word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him.
|
6:7 |
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.
|
6:8 |
For 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.
|
6:9 |
Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.
|
6:10 |
So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
|
6:11 |
See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.
|
6:12 |
Those who desire to make a good showing in the flesh try to compel you to be circumcised, simply so that they will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
|
6:13 |
For those who are circumcised do not even keep the Law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.
|
6:14 |
But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
|
6:15 |
For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
|
6:16 |
And those who will walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.
|
6:17 |
From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the brand-marks of Jesus.
|
6:18 |
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
