Galatians 6

Bear One Another’s Burdens

6aBrothers, even if 1anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are bspiritual, crestore such a one din a spirit of gentleness, each of you looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. 2aBear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill bthe law of Christ. 3For aif anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4But each one must aexamine his own work, and then he will have reason for bboasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another. 5For aeach one will bear his own load.
6aAnd the one who is instructed in bthe word is to share in all good things with the one who instructs him. 7aDo not be deceived, bGod is not mocked, for cwhatever a man sows, this he will also reap. 8aFor the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap bcorruption, but cthe one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9aAnd let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we bdo not grow weary. 10So then, 1,awhile we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the bhousehold of cthe faith.
11See with what large letters I 1am writing to you awith my own hand! 12As many as are wanting ato make a good showing in the flesh, these are trying to bcompel you to be circumcised, simply so that they cwill not be persecuted 1for the cross of Christ. 13For those who 1are circumcised do not even akeep 2the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may bboast in your flesh. 14But amay it never be that I would boast, bexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, cthrough 1which the world has been crucified to me, and dI to the world. 15For aneither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a bnew 1creation. 16And those who will 1walk in step with this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the aIsrael of God.
17From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the amarks of Jesus.
18aThe grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be bwith your spirit, cbrothers. Amen.
