1Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
1Brothers, 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.
2Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
2Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
3For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
4But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.
5For every man shall bear his own burden.
5For each man will bear his own burden.
6Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things .
6But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.
7Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
7Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
8For 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.
9And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
9Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.
10As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
10So 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.
11Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.
11See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.
12As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
12As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
13For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
13For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh.
14But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
14But 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.
15For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
15For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
16And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
16As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.
17From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus .
17From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.
18Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. Unto the Galatians written from Rome.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
