Doing Good to All
1Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. 2Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. 3If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. 4Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, 5for each one should carry their own load. 6Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor.
7Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Not Circumcision but the New Creation
11See what large letters I use as I write to you with my own hand!
12Those who want to impress people by means of the flesh are trying to compel you to be circumcised. The only reason they do this is to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13Not even those who are circumcised keep the law, yet they want you to be circumcised that they may boast about your circumcision in the flesh. 14May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which6:14 Or whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is the new creation. 16Peace and mercy to all who follow this rule—to6:16 Or rule and to the Israel of God.
17From now on, let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers and sisters. Amen.
互相扶持
1弟兄姊妹，如果有人不慎犯了罪，你们属灵的人就应该温柔地挽回他，同时也要小心，免得自己也受诱惑。 2你们要分担彼此的重担，这样就成全了基督的律法。 3一个一无是处的人如果自以为了不起，就是自欺。 4人人都应该省察自己的行为，即使觉得有可夸之处，自己知道就好了，不必在别人面前炫耀。 5因为人人都应该为自己的行为负责。
6在真道上受教的人应该把一切美好的东西分享给教导他的人。
7不要自欺，上帝是轻慢不得的。人种什么收什么。 8顺从本性撒种的，必从本性收取败坏的恶果；顺从圣灵撒种的，必从圣灵收取永生。 9我们行善不可灰心气馁，因为到时候必有收获。 10我们要把握机会为众人做善事，对待信徒更要如此。
最后的劝勉和祝福
11你们看，我亲手写给你们的字是多么大啊6:11 保罗可能有眼疾，故由别人代笔写信。他亲手写的部分字体较大。！ 12那些想做表面工夫的人才勉强你们接受割礼，他们无非是怕为基督的十字架受迫害。 13那些接受割礼的人自己也不能遵行律法。他们要你们接受割礼，无非是想借着你们的肉体夸耀。 14至于我自己，我绝不夸耀别的，只夸耀我们主耶稣基督的十字架。因为对我来说，世上的一切都已经被钉在十字架上；对这世界来说，我已经被钉在十字架上。 15受不受割礼根本无关紧要，做一个新造的人才至关重要。
16愿上帝的平安和怜悯归给那些愿意按这原则生活的人，也归给上帝的以色列子民6:16 “也归给上帝的以色列子民”或译“即上帝的以色列子民”。。 17但愿从今以后，再也没有人来搅扰我了，因为我身上已经烙上了耶稣的印记。
18弟兄姊妹，愿我们主耶稣基督的恩典与你们的灵同在。阿们！
