Galatians 6
- 1Britheren, if a man be occupied in ony gilt, ye that ben spiritual, enforme ye such oon in spirit of softnesse, biholdinge thi silf, lest that thou be temptid.
- 2Ech bere othere chargis, and so ye schulen fulfille the lawe of Crist.
- 3For who that trowith that he be ouyt, whanne he is nouyt, he bigilith him silf.
- 4But ech man preue his owne werk, and so he schal haue glorie in him silf, and not in an othere.
- 5For ech man schal bere his owne charge.
- 6He that is tauyt bi word, comune he with him that techith hym, in `alle goodis.
- 7Nyle ye erre, God is not scorned;
- 8for tho thingis that a man sowith, tho thingis he schal repe. For he that sowith in his fleisch, of the fleisch he schal repe corrupcioun; but he that sowith in the spirit, of the spirit he schal repe euerelastynge lijf.
- 9And doynge good faile we not; for in his tyme we schal repe, not failinge.
- 10Therfor while we han tyme, worche we good to alle men; but most to hem that ben homliche of the feith.
- 11Se ye, what maner lettris Y haue write to you with myn owne hoond.
- 12For who euere wole plese in the fleisch, `this constreyneth you to be circumcidid, oonli that thei suffren not the persecucioun of Cristis crosse.
- 13For nether thei that ben circumcidid kepen the lawe; but thei wolen that ye be circumcidid, that thei haue glorie in youre fleisch.
- 14But fer be it fro me to haue glorie, no but in the crosse of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, bi whom the world is crucified to me, and Y to the world.
- 15For in Jhesu Crist nether circumcisioun is ony thing worth, ne prepucie, but a newe creature.
- 16And who euere suwen this reule, pees on hem, and merci, and on Israel of God.
- 17And heraftir no man be heuy to me; for Y bere in my bodi the tokenes of oure Lord Jhesu Crist.
- 18The grace of oure Lord Jhesu Crist be with youre spirit, britheren. Amen.
