Galatians
Chapter 6
He exhorts to charity, humility, etc. He glories in nothing but in the cross of Christ.
- 1
Brethren, and if a man be overtaken in any fault, you who are spiritual, instruct such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
- 2
Bear ye one another's burdens: and so ye shall fulfil the law of Christ.
- 3
For if any man think himself to be something, whereas he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
- 4
But let every one prove his own work, and so he shall have glory in himself only, and not in another.
- 5
For every one shall bear his own burden.
- 6
And let him who is instructed in the word, communicate to him, who instructeth him, in all good things.
- 7
Be not deceived, God is not mocked.
- 8
For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. For he that soweth in his flesh, of the flesh also shall reap corruption: but he that soweth in the spirit, of the spirit shall reap life everlasting.
- 9
And in doing good, let us not fail: for in due time we shall reap, not failing.
- 10
Therefore, whilst we have time, let us do good to all men, but especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
- 11
See what a letter I have written to you with my own hand.
- 12
For whosoever desire to please in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer the persecution of the cross of Christ.
- 13
For neither they themselves, who are circumcised, keep the law: but they will have you to be circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
- 14
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
- 15
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
- 16
And whosoever shall follow this rule, peace be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
- 17
From henceforth let no man be troublesome to me: for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus in my body.
- 18
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
