[1]My brethren, if a man of you be overtaken by a fault, you who are in the Spirit, regain him, in the spirit of meekness, and beware lest you also be tempted.
[2]And bear the burden of one another, and so fulfil the law of the Meshiha.
[3]For if a man consider that he is something, while he is not, he deceiveth himself.
[4]But let every man prove his work, and then in himself he shall exult, and not in others.
[5]For every man shall bear his own burden.
[6]But let him who heareth the word, communicate to him from whom he heareth it, in all good things.
[7]Do not err. Aloha is not mocked: for whatever a man soweth, that he reapeth.
[8]He who in the flesh soweth, from the flesh corruption reapeth; and he who in the Spirit soweth, from the Spirit the life that is eternal shall reap.
[9]And while we do that which is good, let it not weary us; for the time will be when we shall reap, and it will not weary us.
[10]Now, therefore, while the time is ours, let us do good unto every man, and especially to the sons of the house of the faith.
[11]You see these letters which I have written to you with my hands.
[12]They who would glory in the flesh would constrain you to be circumcised; only lest for the cross of the Meshiha they might be persecuted.
[13]For neither do these who are circumcised keep the law; but they will that you be circumcised, that in your flesh they may glory.
[14]But to me let it not be that I shall glory except in the cross of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, by which the world is crucified unto me, and I am crucified to the world.
[15]For circumcision is not any thing, nor uncircum-cision, but the new creature.
[16]And they who this pathway accomplish, peace be upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of Aloha.
[17]Henceforth upon me let no man throw a burden; for the signatures of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha in my body I bear.
[18]The grace of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha be with your spirit, my brethren. Amen.
Finished is the Epistle to the Galatoyee, which was written from Ruma.
