互相扶持

弟兄姊妹,如果有人不慎犯了罪,你们顺从圣灵的人就应该温柔地挽回他,同时也要小心,免得自己也受诱惑。 你们要分担彼此的重担,这样就成全了基督的律法。 如果一个一无是处的人自以为了不起,他是自欺。 人人都应该省察自己的行为,即使觉得有可夸之处,自己知道就好了,不必在别人面前炫耀。 因为人人都应该为自己的行为负责。

在真道上受教的人应该把一切美好的东西分享给教导他的人。

不要自欺,上帝是轻慢不得的。人种什么收什么。 顺从罪恶的本性撒种的,必从罪恶的本性收取败坏的恶果;顺从圣灵撒种的,必从圣灵收取永生。 我们行善不可灰心气馁,因为到时候必有收获。 10 我们要把握机会为众人做善事,对待信徒更要如此。

最后的劝勉和祝福

11 你们看,我亲手写给你们的字是多么大啊[a] 12 那些勉强你们接受割礼的人只不过是做表面工夫,想讨好别人,避免为基督的十字架受迫害。 13 那些接受割礼的人自己也不能遵行律法。他们要你们接受割礼,无非是想借着你们的肉体夸耀。 14 至于我自己,我绝不夸耀别的,只夸耀我们主耶稣基督的十字架。因为对我来说,世上的一切都已经被钉在十字架上;对这世界来说,我已经被钉在十字架上。 15 受不受割礼根本无关紧要,做一个新造的人才至关重要。

16 愿上帝的平安和怜悯归给那些愿意按这原则生活的人,也归给上帝的以色列子民[b] 17 但愿从今以后,再也没有人来搅扰我了,因为我身上已经烙上了耶稣的印记。

18 弟兄姊妹,愿我们主耶稣基督的恩典与你们同在。阿们!

Bear and Share Burdens

Brethren, if a man is [a]overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of (A)gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. (B)Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill (C)the law of Christ. For (D)if anyone thinks himself to be something, when (E)he is nothing, he deceives himself. But (F)let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and (G)not in another. For (H)each one shall bear his own load.

Be Generous and Do Good

(I)Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for (J)whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap (K)everlasting life. And (L)let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap (M)if we do not lose heart. 10 (N)Therefore, as we have opportunity, (O)let us do good to all, (P)especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Glory Only in the Cross

11 See with what large letters I have written to you with my own hand! 12 As many as desire to make a good showing in the flesh, these would compel you to be circumcised, (Q)only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ. 13 For not even those who are circumcised keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. 14 But God forbid that I should boast except in the (R)cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by [b]whom the world has been crucified to me, and (S)I to the world. 15 For (T)in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

Blessing and a Plea

16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon 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 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

Bear One Another's Burdens

Brothers,[a] (A)if anyone is caught in any transgression, (B)you who are spiritual should restore him in (C)a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. (D)Bear one another's burdens, and (E)so fulfill (F)the law of Christ. For (G)if anyone thinks he is something, (H)when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one (I)test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. For (J)each will have to bear his own load.

(K)Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. (L)Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for (M)whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For (N)the one who sows to his own flesh (O)will from the flesh reap corruption, but (P)the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And (Q)let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, (R)if we do not give up. 10 So then, (S)as we have opportunity, let us (T)do good to everyone, and especially to those who are (U)of the household of faith.

Final Warning and Benediction

11 See with what large letters I am writing to you (V)with my own hand. 12 (W)It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh (X)who would force you to be circumcised, and only (Y)in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. 14 But far be it from me to boast (Z)except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which[b] the world (AA)has been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15 For (AB)neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but (AC)a new creation. 16 And as for all who walk by this rule, (AD)peace and mercy be upon them, and upon (AE)the Israel of God.

17 From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

18 (AF)The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be (AG)with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
