Galatians 6

American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)

1 Ref Brethren, even if a man be overtaken in any trespass, ye who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

2 Ref Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

3 Ref For if a man thinketh himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

4 Ref But let each man prove his own work, and then shall he have his glorying in regard of himself alone, and not of his neighbor.

5 Ref For each man shall bear his own burden.

6 Ref But let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

7 Ref Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8 Ref For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life.

9 Ref And let us not be weary in well-doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

10 Ref So then, as we have opportunity, let us work that which is good toward all men, and especially toward them that are of the household of the faith.

11 Ref See with how large letters I write unto you with mine own hand.

12 Ref As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

13 Ref For not even they who receive circumcision do themselves keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

14 Ref But far be it from me to glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world hath been crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

15 Ref For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

16 Ref And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace `be' upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

17 Ref Henceforth, let no man trouble me; for I bear branded on my body the marks of Jesus.

18 Ref The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

1 Ref Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also aren't tempted.

2 Ref Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

3 Ref For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

4 Ref But let each man test his own work, and then he will take pride in himself and not in his neighbor.

5 Ref For each man will bear his own burden.

6 Ref But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

7 Ref Don't be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap.

8 Ref For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

9 Ref Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don't give up.

10 Ref So then, as we have opportunity, let's do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

11 Ref See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.

12 Ref As many as desire to look good in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

13 Ref For even they who receive circumcision don't keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.

14 Ref But far be it from me to 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 Ref For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

16 Ref As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God's Israel.

17 Ref From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.

18 Ref The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
