Galatians 6

Carry One Another’s Burdens
1Brothers and sisters, if someone is overtaken in any wrongdoing, you who are spiritual, restore such a person with a gentle # 6:1 Jms 3:13 spirit, # 6:1 Or with the Spirit of gentleness,# 6:1 Ps 51:12 watching out for yourselves so that you also won’t be tempted. # 6:1 Jms 1:13 2Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. # 6:2 1Co 9:21 3For if anyone considers himself to be something when he is nothing, # 6:3 1Co 3:18; 2Co 12:11; Gl 2:6 he deceives himself. 4Let each person examine his own work, # 6:4 Mk 14:6; Gl 3:10; Jms 2:14–26 and then he can take pride in himself alone, and not compare himself with someone else. 5For each person will have to carry his own load.
6Let the one who is taught the word share # 6:6 Rm 15:27; 1Pt 5:2 all his good things with the teacher. 7Don’t be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap, 8because the one who sows to his flesh will reap destruction from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit # 6:8 Ps 51:11; Jn 1:33; Ac 2:4; Rm 8:9; Gl 5:25; Ti 3:5; Rv 3:22 will reap eternal life # 6:8 Jn 12:25; Ac 13:48 from the Spirit. 9Let us not get tired # 6:9 2Th 3:13 of doing good, # 6:9 Lk 18:18; Jms 4:17 for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up. 10Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us work # 6:10 2Jn 8 for the good # 6:10 Gn 1:31; 3Jn 11 of all, especially for those who belong to the household # 6:10 1Tm 5:8 of faith. # 6:10 Jd 3
Concluding Exhortation
11Look at what large letters I use as I write to you in my own handwriting. 12Those who want to make a good impression in the flesh # 6:12 Php 3:3 are the ones who would compel you to be circumcised # 6:12 Ac 15:1 — but only to avoid being persecuted # 6:12 2Tm 3:12 for the cross # 6:12 Php 3:18 of Christ. 13For even the circumcised don’t keep # 6:13 Lk 11:28 the law themselves, and yet they want you to be circumcised in order to boast about your flesh. 14But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world. 15For # 6:15 Other mss add in Christ Jesus both circumcision and uncircumcision # 6:15 Col 3:11 mean nothing; what matters instead is a new creation. # 6:15 Jn 1:3; Rv 3:14 16May peace come to all those who follow this standard, and mercy even to the Israel # 6:16 Lk 3:8 of God! # 6:16 Or And for those who follow this standard, may peace and mercy be upon them, even upon the Israel of God, or And as many who will follow this standard, peace be upon them and mercy even upon the Israel of God.
17From now on, let no one cause me trouble, because I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. # 6:17 Php 3:10 18Brothers and sisters, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. # 6:18 Ps 51:12 Amen.

Galatians 6
6
1Achim B'Moshiach, if indeed a man is overtaken in some averah, you ones with ruchniyus restore such a one in a spirit of anavah (meekness), watching out for yourself lest also you come under nisayon (temptation). 2Bear one anotherʼs burdens#6:2 Ps 55:23 and thus you will fulfill the Torah of Moshiach. 3For if anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4But let each man prove his own ma'aseh and then in his own ma'asim rather than in that of his re'a (neighbor) he will find kavod. 5For each man must bear his own massa (burden).
6And let the one being taught limudei kodesh (sacred studies) in the Kitvei HaKodesh share in all good things with his rabbinic moreh.#6:6 2Ti 3:14-15 7Do not be led astray. Hashem is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, this also he will reap. 8For the one sowing to the basar of himself, of the basar will reap churban (destruction); but the one sowing to the Ruach HaKodesh, of the Ruach HaKodesh will reap Chayyei Olam. 9Now let us not lose chozek in doing Gemilut Chasadim, for BE'ITO#6:9 Ps 1:3 (in its season) we will reap, if we faint not. 10Therefore, then, as we have opportunity, we should do ma'asim tovim towards all, and especially towards the Bnei Beis HaEmunah.
11 see with what groise letters i wrote to you with my own hand. 12As many as crave to be good preeners in the basar,#6:12 Ro 2:29 these compel you (Goyim) to undergo bris milah; they (the mohalim of Goyim) do so only to avoid suffering redifah (persecution) for the Etz of Moshiach.#6:12 Dt 21:23 13For not even those of the party of the bris milah are shomer mitzvot themselves; they (the mohalim of Goyim) want you (Goyim) to undergo bris milah for the purpose of boasting in your basar! 14But may it not be to me to boast, except in HaEtz HaMoshiach#6:14 Dt 21:23 Yehoshua Adoneinu, through whom the Olam Hazeh has become nevelah talui al HaEtz#6:14 Dt 21:23 (corpse hanging on the tree) to me, and I have become a nevelah talui al HaEtz (corpse hanging on the tree) to the Olam Hazeh. 15For neither bris milah is anything, nor fehlt (the lacking) of bris milah, but a Bri'a Chadasha.#6:15 T.N. See Ga 5:2 Gentile context contra Ac 21:21 16And as many as stay in line with the Derech HaYashar (Straight Way) of these divrei torah, Shalom Hashem and Chesed Hashem be upon them, and upon the Yisroel of Hashem.#6:16 See Ro 2:28-29
17For the rest, let no one give me any more tzoros; for I bear in my basar the chabburot haYehoshua (wounds, stripes of Yehoshua).#6:17 Isa 53:5
18Achim B'Moshiach, the Chen v'Chesed Hashem of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu be with your neshamah. Omein.
