Galatians 5:25–6:10

²⁵If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit. ²⁶Let us not become conceited, competing against one another, envying one another.

Bear One Another’s Burdens

⁶My brothers and sisters, if anyone is detected in a transgression, you who have received the Spirit should restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness. Take care that you yourselves are not tempted. ²Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill^h the law of Christ.^{* 3}For if those who are nothing think they are something, they deceive themselves.^{* 4}All must test their own work; then that work, rather than their neighbor’s work, will become a cause for pride.^{* 5}For all must carry their own loads.

⁶Those who are taught the word must share in all good things with their teacher.^*

⁷Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for you reap whatever you sow.^{* 8}If you sow to your own flesh, you will reap corruption from the flesh, but if you sow to the Spirit, you will reap eternal life from the Spirit.^{* 9}So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up.^{* 10}So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all and especially for those of the family of faith.^*
