1 Brothers, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you too be tempted.
2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3 For if anyone imagines he is something when he is nothing, he is fooling himself.
4 But let each one test his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in himself alone and not in another.
5 For each one will bear his own load.
6 Let the one taught the word share in all good things with the one who teaches him.
7 Do not be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8 For the one who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit.
9 And let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not faint.
10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
11 Notice what large letters I am using as I write to you with my own hand.
12 All those who want to put on a fine appearance in the flesh are pressing you to be circumcised, only so that they will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
13 For even the circumcised do not keep the law themselves; yet they want you circumcised so that they can boast about your flesh.
14 But for my part, let me boast of nothing except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.
16 And as many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on the Israel of God.
17 From now on let no one trouble me; for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
