Galatians 6:1-15

New American Standard Bible

Bear One Another’s Burdens

6 ^(A)Brothers and sisters, even if a person is caught in any wrongdoing, you who are ^(B)spiritual are to ^(C)restore such a person ^(D)in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you are not tempted as well. ^2 (E)Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill ^(F)the law of Christ. ³ For ^(G)if anyone thinks that he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. ⁴ But each one must ^(H)examine his own work, and then he will have reason for ^(I)boasting, but ^[a]to himself alone, and not ^[b]to another. ⁵ For ^(J)each one will bear his own load.

^6 (K)The one who is taught ^(L)the word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him. ^7 (M)Do not be deceived, ^(N)God is not mocked; for ^(O)whatever a person sows, this he will also reap. ^8 (P)For the one who sows to his own flesh will reap ^(Q)destruction from the flesh, but ^(R)the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. ^9 (S)Let’s not become discouraged in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we ^(T)do not become weary. ¹⁰ So then, ^[c](U)while we have opportunity, let’s do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the ^(V)household of ^(W)the faith.

¹¹ See with what large letters I have written to you ^(X)with my own hand! ¹² All who want ^(Y)to make a good showing in the flesh try to ^(Z)compel you to be circumcised, simply so that they ^(AA)will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. ¹³ For those who ^[d]are circumcised do not even ^(AB)keep ^[e]the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may ^(AC)boast in your flesh. ¹⁴ But ^[f](AD)far be it from me to boast, ^(AE)except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, ^(AF)through ^[g]which the world has been crucified to me, and ^(AG)I to the world. ¹⁵ For ^(AH)neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a ^(AI)new ^[h]creation.
