¹Brothers, if, even so, a man is caught up in some transgression, you who are spiritual restore such a person in a spirit of meekness, watching yourself, in case you too are tempted. ²Bear each other's burdens, and fulfil in this way the law of Christ. ³For if anyone thinks he is something important when he is nothing, he is deluding himself, ⁴but let each one test his own work, and then he will have something to be proud of on his own account only, and not on that of another. ⁵For every person will bear responsibility for his own workload. ⁶And let him who has the word imparted to him share with him who imparts it in all good things. ⁷Do not be led astray; God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that he will by the same token reap. ⁸For he who sows in his own flesh will reap corruption from his flesh, but he who sows in the spirit will reap age-abiding life from the spirit. ⁹And let us not be weary as we do good. For in our own time we will reap, providing we do not flag. ¹⁰So then, when we have an opportunity, let us do good work towards all, especially to those of the household of the faith. ¹¹See with what large letters I have written to you in my own hand! ¹²Those who wish to make a good showing in the flesh are the ones who are compelling you to be circumcised, but only so as not to be persecuted for the cross of Christ. ¹³For those who have been circumcised themselves do not even keep the law, yet they want you to be circumcised so that they may boast about your flesh. ¹⁴But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world was crucified to me, and I to the world. ¹⁵For in Christ Jesus neither does circumcision effect anything nor does uncircumcision, but a new creation does. ¹⁶And for all who march by this rule, may there be peace and mercy on them and on the Israel of God. ¹⁷From now on let no-one cause me trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus on my body. ¹⁸The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
