WEB·Galatians 6

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.

KJVBrethren^G80, if^G1437^G2532 a man^G444 be overtaken^G4301^(G5686) in^G1722 a^G5100 fault^G3900, ye^G5210 which^G3588 are spiritual^G4152, restore^G2675^(G5720) such an one^G5108 in^G1722 the spirit^G4151 of meekness^G4236; considering^G4648^(G5723) thyself^G4572, lest^G3361 thou^G4771 also^G2532 be tempted^G3985^(G5686).

² Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

KJVBear ye^G941^(G5720) one another's^G240 burdens^G922, and^G2532 so^G3779 fulfil^G378^(G5657) the law^G3551 of Christ^G5547.

³ For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

KJVFor^G1063 if a man^G1536 think himself^G1380^(G5719) to be^G1511^(G5750) something^G5100, when he is^G5607^(G5752) nothing^G3367, he deceiveth^G5422^(G5719) himself^G1438.

⁴ But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.

KJVBut^G1161 let^G1381 every man^G1538 prove^G1381^(G5720) his own^G1438 work^G2041, and^G2532 then^G5119 shall he have^G2192^(G5692) rejoicing^G2745 in^G1519 himself^G1438 alone^G3441, and^G2532 not^G3756 in^G1519 another^G2087.

⁵ For each man will bear his own burden.

KJVFor^G1063 every man^G1538 shall bear^G941^(G5692) his own^G2398 burden^G5413.

⁶ But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

KJVLet^G1161 him that is taught^G2727^(G5746) in the word^G3056 communicate^G2841^(G5720) unto him that teacheth^G2727^(G5723) in^G1722 all^G3956 good things^G18.

⁷ Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

KJVBe^G4105 not^G3361 deceived^G4105^(G5744); God^G2316 is^G3456 not^G3756 mocked^G3456^(G5743): for^G1063 whatsoever^G3739^G1437 a man^G444 soweth^G4687^(G5725), that^G5124 shall he^G2325 also^G2532 reap^G2325^(G5692).

⁸ For 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.

KJVFor^G3754 he that soweth^G4687^(G5723) to^G1519 his^G1438 flesh^G4561 shall^G2325 of^G1537 the flesh^G4561 reap^G2325^(G5692) corruption^G5356; but^G1161 he that soweth^G4687^(G5723) to^G1519 the Spirit^G4151 shall^G2325 of^G1537 the Spirit^G4151 reap^G2325^(G5692) life^G2222 everlasting^G166.

⁹ Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.

KJVAnd^G1161 let us^G1573 not^G3361 be weary^G1573^(G5725) in well^G2570 doing^G4160^(G5723): for^G1063 in due^G2398 season^G2540 we shall reap^G2325^(G5692), if we faint^G1590^(G5746) not^G3361.

¹⁰ So 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.

KJVAs^G5613 we have^G2192^(G5719) therefore^G686^G3767 opportunity^G2540, let us do^G2038^(G5741) good^G18 unto^G4314 all^G3956 men, especially^G1161^G3122 unto^G4314 them who are of the household^G3609 of faith^G4102.

¹¹ See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.

KJVYe see^G1492^(G5628) how large^G4080 a letter^G1121 I have written^G1125^(G5656) unto you^G5213 with mine own^G1699 hand^G5495.

¹² As 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.

KJVAs many as^G3745 desire^G2309^(G5719) to make a fair shew^G2146^(G5658) in^G1722 the flesh^G4561, they^G3778 constrain^G315^(G5719) you^G5209 to be circumcised^G4059^(G5745); only^G3440 lest^G3363 they should suffer persecution^G1377^(G5747) for the cross^G4716 of Christ^G5547.

¹³ For 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.

KJVFor^G1063 neither^G3761 they themselves^G846 who are circumcised^G4059^(G5746) keep^G5442^(G5719) the law^G3551; but^G235 desire^G2309^(G5719) to have^G4059 you^G5209 circumcised^G4059^(G5745), that^G2443 they may glory^G2744^(G5667) in^G1722 your^G5212 flesh^G4561.

¹⁴ But 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.

KJVBut^G1161 God forbid^G3361^G1096^(G5636) that I^G1698 should glory^G2744^(G5738), save^G1508 in^G1722 the cross^G4716 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, by^G1223 whom^G3739 the world^G2889 is crucified^G4717^(G5769) unto me^G1698, and I^G2504 unto the world^G2889.

¹⁵ For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

KJVFor^G1063 in^G1722 Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424 neither^G3777 circumcision^G4061 availeth^G2480^(G5719) any thing^G5100, nor^G3777 uncircumcision^G203, but^G235 a new^G2537 creature^G2937.

¹⁶ As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.

KJVAnd^G2532 as many as^G3745 walk^G4748^(G5692) according to^G2583 this^G5129 rule^G2583, peace^G1515 be on^G1909 them^G846, and^G2532 mercy^G1656, and^G2532 upon^G1909 the Israel^G2474 of God^G2316.

¹⁷ From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.

KJVFrom henceforth^G3064 let^G3930 no man^G3367 trouble^G3930^(G5720) me^G2873^G3427: for^G1063 I^G1473 bear^G941^(G5719) in^G1722 my^G3450 body^G4983 the marks^G4742 of the Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424.

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

KJVBrethren^G80, the grace^G5485 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 be with^G3326 your^G5216 spirit^G4151. Amen^G281. To^G4314 the Galatians^G1052 written^G1125^(G5648) from^G575 Rome^G4516.

WEB·Galatians 5

¹Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

KJVStand fast^G4739^(G5720) therefore^G3767 in the liberty^G1657 wherewith^G3739 Christ^G5547 hath made^G1659 us^G2248 free^G1659^(G5656), and^G2532 be^G1758 not^G3361 entangled^G1758^(G5744) again^G3825 with the yoke^G2218 of bondage^G1397.

² Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.

KJVBehold^G2396, I^G1473 Paul^G3972 say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, that^G3754 if^G1437 ye be circumcised^G4059^(G5747), Christ^G5547 shall profit^G5623^(G5692) you^G5209 nothing^G3762.

³ Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

KJVFor^G1161 I testify^G3143^(G5736) again^G3825 to every^G3956 man^G444 that is circumcised^G4059^(G5746), that^G3754 he is^G2076^(G5748) a debtor^G3781 to do^G4160^(G5658) the whole^G3650 law^G3551.

⁴ You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.

KJVChrist^G5547 is become of no effect unto you^G575^G2673^(G5681), whosoever of you^G3748 are justified^G1344^(G5743) by^G1722 the law^G3551; ye are fallen from^G1601^(G5656) grace^G5485.

⁵ For we through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.

KJVFor^G1063 we^G2249 through the Spirit^G4151 wait for^G553^(G5736) the hope^G1680 of righteousness^G1343 by^G1537 faith^G4102.

⁶ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision amounts to anything, but faith working through love.

KJVFor^G1063 in^G1722 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 neither^G3777 circumcision^G4061 availeth^G2480^(G5719) any thing^G5100, nor^G3777 uncircumcision^G203; but^G235 faith^G4102 which worketh^G1754^(G5734) by^G1223 love^G26.

⁷ You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should not obey the truth?

KJVYe did run^G5143^(G5707) well^G2573; who^G5101 did hinder^G348^(G5656)^(G5625)^G1465 you^G5209 that ye should^G3982 not^G3361 obey^G3982^(G5745) the truth^G225?

⁸ This persuasion is not from him who calls you.

KJVThis persuasion^G3988 cometh not^G3756 of^G1537 him that calleth^G2564^(G5723) you^G5209.

⁹ A little yeast grows through the whole lump.

KJVA little^G3398 leaven^G2219 leaveneth^G2220^(G5719) the whole^G3650 lump^G5445.

¹⁰ I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will think no other way. But he who troubles you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

KJVI^G1473 have confidence^G3982^(G5754) in^G1519 you^G5209 through^G1722 the Lord^G2962, that^G3754 ye will be^G5426 none^G3762 otherwise^G243 minded^G5426^(G5692): but^G1161 he that troubleth^G5015^(G5723) you^G5209 shall bear^G941^(G5692) his judgment^G2917, whosoever^G3748 he be^G302^G5600^(G5753).

¹¹ But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.

KJVAnd^G1161 I^G1473, brethren^G80, if^G1487 I^G2784 yet^G2089 preach^G2784^(G5719) circumcision^G4061, why^G5101 do I^G1377 yet^G2089 suffer persecution^G1377^(G5743)? then^G686 is^G2673 the offence^G4625 of the cross^G4716 ceased^G2673^(G5769).

¹² I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off.

KJVI would^G3785 they were^G609 even^G2532 cut off^G609^(G5698) which trouble^G387^(G5723) you^G5209.

¹³ For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don’t use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.

KJVFor^G1063, brethren^G80, ye^G5210 have been called^G2564^(G5681) unto^G1909 liberty^G1657; only^G3440 use not^G3361 liberty^G1657 for^G1519 an occasion^G874 to the flesh^G4561, but^G235 by^G1223 love^G26 serve^G1398^(G5720) one another^G240.

¹⁴ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

KJVFor^G1063 all^G3956 the law^G3551 is fulfilled^G4137^(G5743) in^G1722 one^G1520 word^G3056, even in^G1722 this; Thou shalt love^G25^(G5692) thy^G4675 neighbour^G4139 as^G5613 thyself^G1438.

¹⁵ But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another.

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1487 ye bite^G1143^(G5719) and^G2532 devour^G2719^(G5719) one another^G240, take heed^G991^(G5720) that ye be^G335 not^G3361 consumed^G355^(G5686) one^G240 of^G5259 another^G240.

¹⁶ But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

KJVThis I say^G3004^(G5719) then^G1161, Walk^G4043^(G5720) in the Spirit^G4151, and^G2532 ye shall^G5055 not^G3364 fulfil^G5055^(G5661) the lust^G1939 of the flesh^G4561.

¹⁷ For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.

KJVFor^G1063 the flesh^G4561 lusteth^G1937^(G5719) against^G2596 the Spirit^G4151, and^G1161 the Spirit^G4151 against^G2596 the flesh^G4561: and^G1161 these^G5023 are contrary^G480^(G5736) the one to the other^G240: so that^G2443 ye cannot^G3363 do^G4160^(G5725) the things^G5023 that^G3739^G302 ye would^G2309^(G5725).

¹⁸ But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1487 ye be led^G71^(G5743) of the Spirit^G4151, ye are^G2075^(G5748) not^G3756 under^G5259 the law^G3551.

¹⁹ Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness,

KJVNow^G1161 the works^G2041 of the flesh^G4561 are^G2076^(G5748) manifest^G5318, which^G3748 are^G2076^(G5748) these; Adultery^G3430, fornication^G4202, uncleanness^G167, lasciviousness^G766,

²⁰ idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies,

KJVIdolatry^G1495, witchcraft^G5331, hatred^G2189, variance^G2054, emulations^G2205, wrath^G2372, strife^G2052, seditions^G1370, heresies^G139,

²¹ envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.

KJVEnvyings^G5355, murders^G5408, drunkenness^G3178, revellings^G2970, and^G2532 such^G5125 like^G3664: of the which^G3739 I tell^G4302 you^G5213 before^G4302^(G5719), as^G2531 I have^G4277 also^G2532 told you in time past^G4277^(G5627), that^G3754 they which do^G4238^(G5723) such things^G5108 shall^G2816 not^G3756 inherit^G2816^(G5692) the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316.

²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

KJVBut^G1161 the fruit^G2590 of the Spirit^G4151 is^G2076^(G5748) love^G26, joy^G5479, peace^G1515, longsuffering^G3115, gentleness^G5544, goodness^G19, faith^G4102,

²³ gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

KJVMeekness^G4236, temperance^G1466: against^G2596 such^G5108 there is^G2076^(G5748) no^G3756 law^G3551.

²⁴ Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

KJVAnd^G1161 they that are^G3588 Christ's^G5547 have crucified^G4717^(G5656) the flesh^G4561 with^G4862 the affections^G3804 and^G2532 lusts^G1939.

²⁵ If we live by the Spirit, let’s also walk by the Spirit.

KJVIf^G1487 we live^G2198^(G5719) in the Spirit^G4151, let us^G4748 also^G2532 walk^G4748^(G5725) in the Spirit^G4151.

²⁶ Let’s not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another.

KJVLet us^G1096 not^G3361 be^G1096^(G5741) desirous of vain glory^G2755, provoking^G4292^(G5734) one another^G240, envying^G5354^(G5723) one another^G240.
