Bear One Another’s Burdens

My brothers and sisters, if anyone is detected in a transgression, you who have received the Spirit should restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness. Take care that you yourselves are not tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill[a] the law of Christ.(A) For if those who are nothing think they are something, they deceive themselves.(B) All must test their own work; then that work, rather than their neighbor’s work, will become a cause for pride.(C) For all must carry their own loads.

Those who are taught the word must share in all good things with their teacher.(D)

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.
