6 1 If a man should do something wrong, my brothers, on a sudden impulse, Or : If a man is caught doing something wrong, my brothers ... you who are endowed with the Spirit must set him right again very gently. Look to yourself, each one of you: you may be tempted too. 6 2 Help one another to carry these heavy loads, and in this way you will fulfil the law of Christ. 6 3 For if a man imagines himself to be somebody, when he is nothing, he is deluding himself. 6 4 Each man should examine his own conduct for himself; then he can measure his achievement by comparing himself with himself and not with anyone else. 6 5 For everyone has his own proper burden to bear.
6 6 When anyone is under instruction in the faith, he should give his teacher a share of all good things he has.
6 7 Make no mistake about this: God is not to be fooled; a man reaps what he sows. 6 8 If he sows seed in the field of his lower nature, he will reap from it a harvest of corruption, but if he sows in the field of the Spirit, the Spirit will bring him a harvest of eternal life. 6 9 So let us never tire of doing good, for if we do not slacken our efforts we shall in due time reap our harvest. 6 10 Therefore, as opportunity offers, let us work for the good of all, especially members of the household of the faith.
