1 Brethren, if even a man be taken in some fault, ye who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering thyself lest *thou* also be tempted.2 Bear one another's burdens, and thus fulfil the law of the Christ.3 For if any man reputes himself to be something, being nothing, he deceives himself;4 but let each prove his own work, and then he will have his boast in what belongs to himself alone, and not in what belongs to another.5 For each shall bear his own burden.6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things.7 Be not deceived: God is not mocked; for whatever a man shall sow, that also shall he reap.8 For he that sows to his own flesh, shall reap corruption from the flesh; but he that sows to the Spirit, from the Spirit shall reap eternal life:9 but let us not lose heart in doing good; for in due time, if we do not faint, we shall reap.10 So then, as we have occasion, let us do good towards all, and specially towards those of the household of faith.11 See how long a letter I have written to you with my own hand.12 As many as desire to have a fair appearance in {the} flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted because of the cross of Christ.13 For neither do they that are circumcised themselves keep the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.14 But far be it from me to boast save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom {the} world is crucified to me, and I to the world.15 For {in Christ Jesus} neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision; but new creation.16 And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.17 For the rest let no one trouble me, for *I* bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ {be} with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

1 Broeders, as iemand ewenwel deur een of ander misdaad oorval word, moet julle wat geestelik is, so een reghelp met die gees van sagmoedigheid, terwyl jy op jouself let, dat jy ook nie versoek word nie.2 Dra mekaar se laste en vervul so die wet van Christus.3 Want as iemand meen dat hy iets is, terwyl hy niks is nie, mislei hy homself.4 Maar laat elkeen sy eie werk op die proef stel; en dan sal hy grond vir roem hê alleen wat homself betref en nie wat die ander betref nie.5 Want elkeen sal sy eie pak dra.6 Maar laat hom wat in die Woord onderwys ontvang, meedeel van alle goeie dinge aan hom wat onderwys gee.7 Moenie dwaal nie; God laat Hom nie bespot nie; want net wat die mens saai, dit sal hy ook maai.8 Hy wat in sy vlees saai, sal uit die vlees verderf maai; maar hy wat in die Gees saai, sal uit die Gees die ewige lewe maai.9 En laat ons nie moeg word om goed te doen nie, want op die regte tyd sal ons maai as ons nie verslap nie.10 Laat ons dan, terwyl ons geleentheid het, aan almal goed doen, maar die meeste aan die huisgenote van die geloof.11 Kyk met watter groot letters ek met my eie hand aan julle skrywe.12 Almal wat 'n mooi vertoning in die vlees wil maak, die dwing julle om julle te laat besny net om nie ter wille van die kruis van Christus vervolg te word nie.13 Want ook hulle wat besny word, hou self nie die wet nie; maar hulle wil hê dat julle besny moet word, sodat hulle in julle vlees kan roem.14 Maar wat my betref, mag ek nooit roem nie, behalwe in die kruis van onse Here Jesus Christus, deur wie die wêreld vir my gekruisig is en ek vir die wêreld.15 Want in Christus Jesus het n•g die besnydenis n•g die onbesnedenheid enige krag, maar 'n nuwe skepsel.16 En mag daar vrede en barmhartigheid wees oor almal wat sal wandel volgens hierdie reël, en oor die Israel van God!17 Verder moet niemand my moeite aandoen nie, want ek dra die littekens van die Here Jesus in my liggaam.18 Die genade van onse Here Jesus Christus sy met julle gees, broeders! Amen.
