¹Brethren, 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.

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

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

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

⁵For each man shall bear his own burden.

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

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

⁸For 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.

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

¹⁰So 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.

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

¹²As 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.

¹³For 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.

¹⁴But 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.

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

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

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

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