Galatians 6

Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Switch Version:

Ephesians

¹ Brothers and sisters, if someone is overtaken in any wrongdoing, you who are spiritual, restore such a person with a gentle ⓐ spirit, [1] ⓑ watching out for yourselves so that you also won’t be tempted. ⓒ

² Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. ⓓ

³ For if anyone considers himself to be something when he is nothing, ⓔ he deceives himself.

⁴ Let each person examine his own work, ⓕ and then he can take pride in himself alone, and not compare himself with someone else.

⁵ For each person will have to carry his own load.

⁶ Let the one who is taught the word share ⓖ all his good things with the teacher.

⁷ Don’t be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap,

⁸ because the one who sows to his flesh will reap destruction from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit ⓗ will reap eternal life ⓘ from the Spirit.

⁹ Let us not get tired ⓙ of doing good, ⓚ for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up.

¹⁰ Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us work ⓛ for the good ⓜ of all, especially for those who belong to the household ⓝ of faith. ⓐ

¹¹ Look at what large letters I use as I write to you in my own handwriting.

¹² Those who want to make a good impression in the flesh ⓑ are the ones who would compel you to be circumcised ⓒ — but only to avoid being persecuted ⓓ for the cross ⓔ of Christ.

¹³ For even the circumcised don’t keep ⓕ the law themselves, and yet they want you to be circumcised in order to boast about your flesh.

¹⁴ But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world.

¹⁵ For [2] both circumcision and uncircumcision ⓖ mean nothing; what matters instead is a new creation. ⓗ

¹⁶ May peace come to all those who follow this standard, and mercy even to the Israel ⓘ of God! [3]

¹⁷ From now on, let no one cause me trouble, because I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. ⓙ

¹⁸ Brothers and sisters, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. ⓚ Amen.
