## Bear One Another's Burdens
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 1
|
||
|
|
Brothers, even if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, _each of you_ looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have _reason for_ boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
For each one will bear his own load.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
And the one who is instructed in the word is to share in all good things with the one who instructs _him_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|
||
|
|
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|
||
|
|
And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 10
|
||
|
|
So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 11
|
||
|
|
See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|
|
As many as are wanting to make a good showing in the flesh, these are trying to compel you to be circumcised, simply so that they will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|
|
For those who are circumcised do not even keep the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 16
|
||
|
|
And those who will walk in step with this rule, peace and mercy _be_ upon them, and upon the Israel of God.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 17
|
||
|
|
From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
