Galatians 6 - A Conservative Version

¹ And brothers, if a man is overtaken in some transgression, ye the spiritual, restore such in a spirit of meekness, looking to thyself lest thou also be tempted.

² Bear the burdens of each other, and so fulfill the law of the Christ.

³ For if some man presumes to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

⁴ But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have the boast in himself alone and not in the other man.

⁵ For each man will bear his own burden.

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

⁷ Be not misled, God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows this he will also reap.

⁸ Because 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.

⁹ And let us not be weary doing good, for in our own time we will reap, not desponding.

¹⁰ So then as we have time, let us work what is good toward all men, and especially toward those belonging to a household of the faith.

¹¹ See in how large letters I wrote to you with my hand.

¹² As many as desire to make a good impression in flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only so that they may not be persecuted for the cross of the Christ.

¹³ For not even those who have been circumcised themselves keep law, but they want you to be circumcised, so that they may boast in thy flesh.

¹⁴ But may it not be from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

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

¹⁶ And as many as will march by this standard, peace upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

¹⁷ Finally, let no man cause troubles for me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

¹⁸ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with your spirit, brothers. Truly.
