ONBV Biblica Open New Living Bible (Nueva Biblia Viva 2008)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Hermanos, si descubren que alguno ha pecado, ustedes, que son espirituales, deben ayudarlo a volver al buen camino con actitud humilde. Pero cada uno debe cuidarse, porque también puede ser puesto a prueba.
1 Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.
2 Ayúdense unos a otros a llevar sus cargas y así estarán obedeciendo la ley de Cristo.
2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3 El que se crea demasiado grande cuando en realidad no es nada, se engaña a sí mismo.
3 For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4 Cada uno debe examinar su conducta; y si tiene algo de qué sentirse orgulloso, que no se compare con nadie.
4 But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.
5 Cada cual tiene que cargar con su propia responsabilidad.
5 For each man will bear his own burden.
6 Los que estudian la Palabra de Dios deben ayudar económicamente a sus maestros.
6 But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.
7 No se engañen a sí mismos; nadie puede engañar a Dios; uno siempre recogerá lo que haya sembrado.
7 Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8 El que siembra para satisfacer los apetitos de su naturaleza pecaminosa, de ella cosechará destrucción; pero quien planta lo que le agrada al Espíritu, cosechará vida eterna del Espíritu.
8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
9 Así que no nos cansemos de hacer el bien, porque si lo hacemos sin desmayar, a su debido tiempo recogeremos la cosecha.
9 Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.
10 Por lo tanto, hagamos el bien a todos cada vez que se presente la oportunidad, y especialmente a los que, por la fe, son de la familia.
10 So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
11 Les escribo de mi puño y letra, ¡y miren con qué letras tan grandes!
11 See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.
12 Esos que están tratando de que ustedes se circunciden, lo hacen para quedar bien con la gente y así evitar la persecución por anunciar la cruz de Cristo.
12 As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
13 Lo curioso es que ni siquiera los que están circuncidados guardan la ley, pero quieren que ustedes se circunciden para luego jactarse de que ustedes hicieron lo que ellos querían.
13 For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh.
14 En cuanto a mí, ¡Dios me libre de jactarme de otra cosa que no sea la cruz de nuestro Señor Jesucristo! Por él, el mundo fue crucificado para mí, y yo para el mundo.
14 But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15 Ya no importa si uno está circuncidado o no; lo que importa es ser parte de la nueva creación.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
16 Que la misericordia y la paz de Dios reposen sobre los que viven de acuerdo con esta norma y sobre el Israel de Dios.
16 As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.
17 De ahora en adelante ya no quiero que nadie me cause más problemas, porque llevo en el cuerpo las marcas de haber sufrido por Jesús.
17 From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.
18 Hermanos, que la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo esté con cada uno de ustedes. Así sea.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 6:14 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book I, Chapters III–IV)

    … Apostle Paul himself made mention of this cross in the following words: "The doctrine of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us who are saved it is the power of God." And again: "God forbid that I should glory in anything save in the cross of Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and …

  2. Quotes verse 6:4 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book V, Chapters 10–12)

    Whence the apostle says, "For this is our glory, the testimony of our conscience." And in another place he says, "But let every one prove his own work, and then he shall have glory in himself, and not in another." That glory, honor, and power, therefore, which they desired for themselves, and to which the good sought to attain by …

  3. Quotes verse 6:8 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXIV)

    For Paul too intimated this when he said, "He that soweth to his flesh, shall of his flesh reap corruption." To this man are they like also, who build on the sand; as those that are given up to fornication, to wantonness, to drunkenness, to anger, to all the other things.

  4. Quotes verse 6:14 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XIII)

    Every deed of Christ is a cause of glorying to the Catholic Church, but her greatest of all glorying is in the Cross; and knowing this, Paul says, But God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of Christ.

  5. Quotes verse 6:8 Basil of Caesarea, On the Holy Spirit (Chapter V)

    "He that soweth to the spirit," it is said, "shall of the spirit reap life everlasting." John too writes, "Hereby we know that he abideth in us by (ek) the spirit which he hath given us." "That which is conceived in her," says the angel, "is of the Holy Ghost," and the Lord says "that which is born of the …
