1Brothers, if someone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, watching yourself, so that you also may not be tempted.
2Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of the Messiah.
3For if anyone thinks he is something while being nothing, he deceives himself.
4But let each one test his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone and not in another,
5For each one will carry his own load.
6Let the one who is taught share all good things with the one who teaches.
7Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a person sows, this he will also reap.
8For the one who sows into his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows into the spirit will reap eternal life from the spirit.
9And let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not give up.
10Therefore, since we have opportunity, let us work for the good of all, especially for those who belong to the family of faith.
11See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.
12All who want to make a good showing in the flesh compel you to be circumcised only so that they will not be persecuted for the cross of the Christ.
13For not even those who are circumcised themselves keep the law, but they want you to be circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.
14But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is anything, but a new creation.
16And as many as will walk by this rule, peace be upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
17From now on, let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers; Amen.
