加拉太书 6
互相分担重担
1 弟兄们,一个人无论被任何过犯所胜,你们属灵的人都要以温柔的心灵把这样的人挽回过来;但是你自己要留心,免得你也受试探。2 你们各人的重担要互相担当,如此,就将成全基督的律法。3 人本来算不得什么;如果自以为是什么,就是在欺骗自己。4 每个人都当省察自己的工作;这样,他就只在自我比较的时候,将有可夸耀的,而不与别人比较了,5 因为每个人都要担当自己的担子。
6 在这话语上受教导的,就应该将一切美物与教导他的人分享。7 你们不要被迷惑了!神是轻慢不得的。要知道,一个人种什么,就收什么。8 因为顺着自己肉体撒种的,就会从肉体收衰朽t;顺着圣灵撒种的,就会从圣灵收永恒的生命。9 我们行美善的事不要丧胆;如果不放弃,到了所定的时候t就会有收获。10 由此可见,我们一有机会,就要向众人做美善的事,尤其要对信徒家里的人。
最终的劝勉
11 你们看,我亲手写给你们的字,是多么地大。12 那些想在肉体上体面的,他们才强求你们受割礼,他们只是要避免为基督的十字架受逼迫。13 事实上,那些受割礼的人自己也不遵守律法。他们要你们受割礼,是为了以你们的肉体夸耀。14 至于我,除了我们主耶稣基督的十字架以外,我绝不以别的夸耀。因这十字架t,对我来说,世界已经被钉十字架了;对世界来说,我也已经被钉十字架了。15 因为t受割礼或不受割礼,都算不了什么t;重要的是t成为新造的人。16 凡是照着这原则行走的人,愿平安和怜悯临到他们,也临到神的以色列民!
17 从今以后,谁都不要烦扰我,因为我身上带着耶稣t的印记。18 弟兄们,愿我们主耶稣基督的恩典与你们的灵同在!阿们。
Galatians 6
Support One Another
1 Brothers and sisters,t if a persont is discovered in some sin,t you who are spirituals restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness.t Pay close attentiont to yourselves, so that you are not tempted too.2 Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.3 For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.4 Let each one examinet his own work. Then he can take pridet in himself and not compare himself witht someone else.
5 For each one will carryt his own load.
6 Now the one who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with the one who teachest it.7 Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool.t For a persont will reap what he sows,8 because the person who sows to his own flesht will reap corruptiont from the flesh,t but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit.9 So we must not grow wearyt in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we do not give up.t
10 So then,t whenever we have an opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who belong to the family of faith.t
Final Instructions and Benediction
11 See what big letters I make as I write to you with my own hand!
12 Those who want to make a good showing in external matterst are trying to force you to be circumcised. They do sot only to avoid being persecuteds for the cross of Christ.13 For those who are circumcised do not obey the law themselves, but they want you to be circumcised so that they can boast about your flesh.t14 But may I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whicht the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.15 Fors neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts fort anything; the only thing that matters is a new creation!t
16 And all who will behavet in accordance with this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on the Israel of God.t
17 From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear the marks of Jesus on my body.t
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ bet with your spirit, brothers and sisters.t Amen.
