²⁵ Since we live by the Spirit,^(A) let us keep in step with the Spirit. ²⁶ Let us not become conceited,^(B) provoking and envying each other.

Doing Good to All

6 Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit^(C) should restore^(D) that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. ² Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.^{(E) 3} If anyone thinks they are something^(F) when they are not, they deceive themselves.^{(G) 4} Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone,^(H) without comparing themselves to someone else,^{(I) 5} for each one should carry their own load.^{(J) 6} Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor.^(K)

⁷ Do not be deceived:^(L) God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.^{(M) 8} Whoever sows to please their flesh,^(N) from the flesh will reap destruction;^(O) whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.^{(P) 9} Let us not become weary in doing good,^(Q) for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.^{(R) 10} Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good^(S) to all people, especially to those who belong to the family^(T) of believers.
