New American Standard Bible 1995

Bear One Another’s Burdens

11BrethrenG80, evenG2532 ifG1437 2anyoneG444 is caughtG4301 in anyG5100 trespassG3900, you who are 3spiritualG4152, 4restoreG2675 suchG5108 a oneG5108 5in a spiritG4151 of gentlenessG4240; each one lookingG4648 to yourselfG4572, soG3361 that you tooG2532 will not be temptedG3985. 26BearG941 oneG240 another’sG240 burdensG922, and therebyG3779 fulfillG378 7the lawG3551 of ChristG5547. 3For 8ifG1487 anyoneG5100 thinksG1380 he is somethingG5100 when he is nothingG3367, he deceivesG5422 himselfG1438. 4But eachG1538 oneG1538 must 9examineG1381 his ownG1438 workG2041, and thenG5119 he will haveG2192 reason for 10boastingG2745 in regardG1519 to himselfG1438 aloneG3441, and not in regardG1519 to anotherG2087. 5For 11eachG1538 oneG1538 will bearG941 his ownG2398 loadG5413.

612The one who is taughtG2727 13the wordG3056 is to shareG2841 allG3956 goodG18 thingsG18 with the one who teachesG2727 him. 714Do not be deceivedG4105, 15GodG2316 is not mockedG3456; for 16whateverG3739G1437 a manG444 sowsG4687, thisG3778 he will alsoG2532 reapG2325. 817For the one who sowsG4687 to his ownG1438 fleshG4561 will from the fleshG4561 reapG2325 18corruptionG5356, but 19the one who sowsG4687 to the SpiritG4151 will from the SpiritG4151 reapG2325 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 920Let us not loseG1457 heartG1457 in doingG4160 goodG2570, for in dueG2398 timeG2540 we will reapG2325 if we 21do not growG1590 wearyG1590. 10SoG686 thenG686, 2223whileG5613 we haveG2192 opportunityG2540, let us doG2038 goodG18 to allG3956 peopleG3956, and especiallyG3122 to thoseG3588 whoG3609 are of the 24householdG3609 of 25the faithG4102.

11SeeG3708 with whatG4080 largeG4080 lettersG1121 I 26am writingG1125 to you 27with my ownG1699 handG5495. 12ThoseG3745 whoG3745 desireG2309 28to makeG2146 a goodG2146 showingG2146 in the fleshG4561 try to 29compelG315 you to be circumcisedG4059, simplyG3440 soG2443 that they 30will not be persecutedG1377 31for the crossG4716 of ChristG5547. 13For thoseG3588 who 32are circumcisedG4059 do not evenG3761 33keepG5442 34the LawG3551 themselvesG846, but they desireG2309 to have you circumcisedG4059 soG2443 that they may 35boastG2744 in your fleshG4561. 14But 36may it neverG3361 be that I would boastG2744, 37exceptG1508 in the crossG4716 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 38throughG1223 39whichG3739 the worldG2889 has been crucifiedG4717 to me, and 40I to the worldG2889. 15For 41neitherG3777 is circumcisionG4061 anythingG5100, norG3777 uncircumcisionG203, but a 42newG2537 43creationG2937. 16And thoseG3745 whoG3745 will 44walkG4748 by thisG3778 ruleG2583, peaceG1515 and mercyG1656 be upon them, and upon the 45IsraelG2474 of GodG2316.

17From nowG3062 on let noG3367 oneG3367 causeG3930 troubleG2873 for me, for I bearG941 on my bodyG4983 the 46brand-marksG4742 of JesusG2424.

1847The graceG5485 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be 48with your spiritG4151, 49brethrenG80. AmenG281.
