Galatas 6
1 Fratres, et si præoccupatus fuerit homo in aliquo delicto, vos, qui spirituales estis, huiusmodi instruite in spiritu lenitatis, considerans te ipsum, ne et tu tenteris.
Brethren! if a man should even be overtaken in any fault, ye, the spiritual, be restoring such a one, in a spirit of meekness, looking to thyself, lest, even thou, be put to the test.
2 Alter alterius onera portate, et sic adimplebitis legem Christi.
One another’s burdens, be ye bearing, and, so, fill up the law of the Christ.
3 Nam si quis existimat se aliquid esse, cum nihil sit, ipse se seducit.
For, if any one thinketh he is something, when he is, nothing, he deceiveth himself;
4 Opus autem suum probet unusquisque, et sic in semetipso tantum gloriam habebit, et non in altero.
But, his own work, let each one be putting to the proof, and, then, for himself alone, the matter of boasting, shall he have, and not for some other,
5 Unusquisque enim onus suum portabit.
For, each one, his own proper load, shall bear: —
6 Communicet autem is, qui catechizatur verbo, ei, qui se catechizat, in omnibus bonis.
Howbeit, let him who is being orally instructed in the word, have fellowship with him that is so instructing him, in all good things.
7 Nolite errare: Deus non irridetur. Quæ enim seminaverit homo, hæc et metet.
Be not deceiving yourselves! God, is not to be mocked; for, whatsoever a man soweth, the same, shall he also reap, —
8 Quoniam qui seminat in carne sua, de carne et metet corruptionem: qui autem seminat in spiritu, de spiritu metet vitam æternam. (aiōnios g166)
Because, he that soweth into his own flesh, out of the flesh, shall reap corruption, whereas, he that soweth into the Spirit, out of the Spirit, shall reap age-abiding life. (aiōnios g166)
9 Bonum autem facientes, non deficiamus: tempore enim suo metemus non deficientes.
And, in doing that which is honourable, let us not be fainthearted; for, in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not.
10 Ergo dum tempus habemus, operemur bonum ad omnes, maxime autem ad domesticos fidei.
Hence, then, as we have opportunity, let us be working what is good, towards all, —but, especially, towards the family of the faith.
11 Videte qualibus litteris scripsi vobis mea manu.
See! with what large letters, unto you, I have written, with my own hand: —
12 Quicumque enim volunt placere in carne, hi cogunt vos circumcidi, tantum ut crucis Christi persecutionem non patiantur.
As many as are wishing to make a good show in flesh, the same, are compelling you to get circumcised, —only that, for the cross of Christ [Jesus], they may not be suffering persecution!
13 Neque enim qui circumciduntur, legem custodiunt: sed volunt vos circumcidi, ut in carne vestra glorientur.
For, not even they who are getting circumcised, are, themselves, observing law, —but are wishing you to be circumcised, that, in your flesh, they may boast themselves.
14 Mihi autem absit gloriari, nisi in cruce Domini nostri Iesu Christi: per quem mihi mundus crucifixus est, et ego mundo.
With me, however, far be it! to be boasting, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, —whereby, unto me, a world hath been crucified, and, I, unto a world;
15 In Christo enim Iesu neque circumcisio aliquid valet, neque præputium, sed nova creatura.
For neither circumcision is anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation; —
16 Et quicumque hanc regulam secuti fuerint, pax super illos, et misericordia, et super Israel Dei.
And, as many as, by this rule, shall walk, peace be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
17 De cetero nemo mihi molestus sit: ego enim stigmata Domini Iesu in corpore meo porto.
For the rest, annoyances, unto me, let no one be offering; for, I, the brandmarks of Jesus, in my body, am bearing.
18 Gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi, cum spiritu vestro, fratres. Amen.
The favour of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
