Galatians 6

Bear One Another’s Burdens

6Brothers,^{1 o}if anyone is caught in any transgression, ^pyou who are spiritual should restore him in ^qa spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. ^2rBear one another’s burdens, and ^sso fulfill ^tthe law of Christ. ³For ^uif anyone thinks he is something, ^vwhen he is nothing, he deceives himself. ⁴But let each one ^wtest his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. ⁵For ^xeach will have to bear his own load.

^6yLet the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. ^7zDo not be deceived: God is not mocked, for ^awhatever one sows, that will he also reap. ⁸For ^bthe one who sows to his own flesh ^cwill from the flesh reap corruption, but ^dthe one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. ⁹And ^elet us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, ^fif we do not give up. ¹⁰So then, ^gas we have opportunity, let us ^hdo good to everyone, and especially to those who are ⁱof the household of faith.

Final Warning and Benediction

¹¹See with what large letters I am writing to you ^jwith my own hand. ^12kIt is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh ^lwho would force you to be circumcised, and only ^min 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 ⁿexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which² the world ^ohas been crucified to me, and I to the world. ¹⁵For ^pneither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but ^qa new creation. ¹⁶And as for all who walk by this rule, ^rpeace and mercy be upon them, and upon ^sthe Israel of God.

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

^18tThe grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be ^uwith your spirit, brothers. Amen.
