11你们看,我亲手写给你们的字是多么大啊*!12那些勉强你们接受割礼的人只不过是做表面工夫,想讨好别人,避免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*。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同在。阿们!

Bear One Another’s Burdens
1Brothers,* if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted.2Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.3For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.4But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.5For each will have to bear his own load.6Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches.7Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.8For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.9And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.10So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
Final Warning and Benediction
11See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.12It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.13For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh.14But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which* the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.15For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.16And as for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon 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. Amen.
