Galatians 6
English Standard Version
Bear One Another's Burdens
6 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. 2 (D)Bear one another's burdens, and (E)so fulfill (F)the law of Christ. 3 For (G)if anyone thinks he is something, (H)when he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4 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. 5 For (J)each will have to bear his own load.
6 (K)Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. 7 (L)Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for (M)whatever one sows, that will he also reap. 8 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. 9 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.

Kehillah in Galatia 6
Orthodox Jewish Bible
6 Achim B’Moshiach, if indeed a man is overtaken in some averah, you ones with ruchniyus restore such a one in a spirit of anavah (meekness), watching out for yourself lest also you come under nisayon (temptation).
2 Bear one another’s burdens (TEHILLIM 55:23) and thus you will fulfill the Torah of Moshiach.
3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4 But let each man prove his own ma’aseh and then in his own ma’asim rather than in that of his re’a (neighbor) he will find kavod.
5 For each man must bear his own load.
6 And let the one being taught limudei kodesh (sacred studies) in the Kitvei HaKodesh share in all good things with his rabbinic moreh (2Ti3:14-15).
7 Do not be led astray. Hashem is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, this also he will reap.
8 For the one sowing to the basar of himself, of the basar will reap churban (destruction); but the one sowing to the Ruach HaKodesh, of the Ruach HaKodesh will reap Chayyei Olam.
9 Now let us not lose chozek in doing Gemilut Chasadim, for BE’ITO ("in its season" TEHILLIM 1:3) we will reap, if we faint not.
10 Therefore, then, as we have opportunity, we should do ma’asim tovim towards all, and especially towards the Bnei Beis HaEmunah.
11 SEE WITH WHAT GROISE LETTERS I WROTE TO YOU WITH MY OWN HAND.
12 As many as crave to be good preeners in the basar (Ro 2:29), these compel you (Goyim) to undergo bris milah; they (the mohalim of Goyim) do so only to avoid suffering redifah (persecution) for the Etz of Moshiach (DEVARIM 21:23).
13 For not even those of the party of the bris milah are shomer mitzvot themselves; they (the mohalim of Goyim) want you (Goyim) to undergo bris milah for the purpose of boasting in your basar!
14 But may it not be to me to boast, except in HaEtz HaMoshiach (DEVARIM 21:23) Yehoshua Adoneinu, through whom the Olam Hazeh has become nevelah talui al HaEtz (corpse hanging on the tree DEVARIM 21:23) to me, and I have become a nevelah talui al HaEtz (corpse hanging on the tree) to the Olam Hazeh.
15 For neither bris milah is anything, nor fehlt (the lacking) of bris milah, but a Bri’a Chadasha (New Creation).
16 And as many as stay in line with the Derech HaYashar (Straight Way) of these divrei torah, Shalom Hashem and Chesed Hashem be upon them, and upon the Yisroel of Hashem [See Ro 2:28-29].
17 For the rest, let no one give me any more tzoros; for I bear in my basar the chabburot haYehoshua (wounds, stripes of Yehoshua YESHAYEH 53:5).
18 Achim B’Moshiach, the Chen v’Chesed Hashem of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu be with your neshamah. Omein.
